Ancestralite is thought to be 2.7 billion years old, and is a trade name given to a mineral which contains Martite, a pseudomorph where Magnetite has changed into Hematite. The colours and patterns come from the layers of Iron Oxide.

Ancestralite can be of great benefit to those looking to delve into their past lives. It is a strongly grounding crystal that helps cut ties with a toxic past, and is a key tool for past life work. Ancestralite can aid in accessing the Akashic Records and connects the past, present, and future. This makes it an excellent crystal for anyone looking to explore their spiritual journey and gain insight into their past, present, and future.
