When the palm roots of ancient mystical Indonesian palm trees sunk into the our earth mother MILLIONS of years ago, the Silica carried in underground water combined with intense pressure, caused the pseudomorphic process of wood being replaced by microcrystalline Quartz, largely Chalcedony and Jasper. Meaning the wood and root of a tree has turned into a material with a crystalline structure; technically a member of the chalcedony family with a hardness of
6.5 to 7.
Technically speaking the palm root now holds within it all elements; the earth it birthed from and returned to, the Light and heat of our fiery sun and the air it photosynthesised during its time as a tree, and the water element that caused it to adapt and transform its inner structure over centuries.

In times of transformation, perhaps your having what some people refer to as a ‘shamanic death’ Palm Root helps you to go through this process with less resistance, reminding us ‘actually this process does not have to be that difficult’, in fact it gently releases and heals our old outdated energies, and stabilizes any new ‘spiritual upgrade’ energies we have coming in. I guess it's almost like a ‘cheat code’ in shadow work, sometimes you can achieve this almost unconsciously and painlessly when you have been working with Palm Root consistently for a while, which I would put down to the fact it helps you ‘stabilize’ in your emotional foundations, and therefore feel more confident in making the right decisions.
