Canyon Diablo specimens were discovered in the surrounding area in the late 19th century.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nMeteor Crater is approximately 4,000 feet (1.2 km) across and remains one of the best-preserved meteorite impact craters on Earth. A photograph of the crater is included in this listing.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nMETAPHYSICAL TRADITIONS\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nElement: Fire\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nChakras: Root (1st), Solar Plexus (3rd), Third Eye (6th), Crown (7th)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIn metaphysical traditions, iron meteorites such as Canyon Diablo are believed to carry symbolism associated with cosmic energy, transformation, strength, awakening, and new beginnings. Some practitioners use meteorites during meditation or spiritual practices as a symbolic connection between Earth and the greater cosmos.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThese associations are based on spiritual and metaphysical traditions and are not scientifically established properties.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nA GIFT FROM THE COSMOS\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nMeteorites are among the most extraordinary natural objects a person can own. Their parent material formed during the earliest history of our solar system, billions of years before humans existed.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nFor centuries, meteorites have been viewed by different cultures as extraordinary objects arriving from the heavens. Today they can serve as powerful symbols of time, endurance, transformation, and our connection to the universe.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThis makes a meteorite an especially meaningful gift: an ancient piece of the solar system that existed long before us and will remain long after us. It can represent a connection or love that reaches beyond an individual lifetime and into the vast history of the cosmos.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nHigher Level Creations\u003cbr\u003e\nWhere Earth Meets the Cosmos","brand":"Higher Level Creations","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53729785217205,"sku":"etsy-4579445473","price":1023.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0656\/6920\/2101\/files\/il_fullxfull.8554640014_gucp.jpg?v=1794269755","url":"https:\/\/higherlevelcreations.com\/products\/canyon-diablo-iron-meteorite-specimen-arizona-space-gift-natural-hole-255-77-grams","provider":"Higher Level Creations ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
