Septarian Nodule, also referred to as Dragon Stone, is a tri color concretion composed of Aragonite (the brown), Calcite, (the yellow), and Limestone (the grey). The name comes from the word “Septaria”, which usually refers to any concretion with internal cavities or cracks. This unique mineral was formed around 50 to 70 million years ago during Earth’s Cretaceous Period. Sea life during that time became attracted to the molten sediment that was produced by these massive volcanic eruptions. Overtime as sea life began to die, their chemical composition became enriched in sedimentary rock, forming the nodules we see today. As oceans began to recede around the world, the water within soon dried out and massive cracks formed internally. The chemicals within the dead sea life eventually crystallized and formed Aragonite “crusts” and drusy Calcite crystals. Most Septarian Nodules are from Utah, where the Gulf Of Mexico once spanned to, as well as Madagascar, which was under very similar conditions during that time period.

Septarian Nodule is a powerful grounding stone that awakens one’s connection to Mother Earth and the nurturing energy she provides. Ones root chakra will become activated when working with this stone, as well as vital life force energy being channeled throughout your body. This energy being transferred through you is that of ancient origin, being a combination of 3 powerful minerals that will help in the realignment of one's chakra column. One may experience an “inner awakening” when connecting with this stone, driving drastic change and new habits to replace ones old daily habits. Septarian is a perfect tool for anyone going through some sort of drastic change in their life and can help one repair their emotional body.

Septarian specimens are believed to have formed during the Cretaceous period when sea levels were much higher. Volcanic eruptions and other occurrences resulted in the death of small sealife that then sank to into the seabed. As the specimens decomposed, sediments would accumulate and create a nodule or mud ball. When the oceans eventually receded, these mud balls were left exposed to the air and dried out, causing shrinking and cracking. The beautiful patterns you see inside septarian nodules are the result of this cracking.

Septarian specimens are geodes that are a combination of yellow calcite, brown aragonite, grey limestone and white or clear barite. The word septarian comes from the Latin word "septum," meaning "partition." Septarian nodules contain angular cavities as a result of cracking, which are called septaria and create divisions throughout the stone. These unique septaria can be any length and each septarian can have many different cracks. Calcite leeches into the cracks of septarian to form calcite crystals on a layer of aragonite, which is on bentonite clay. Eventually, bentonite is replaced with limestone, resulting in the nodule turning to stone.

Each septarian specimen is unique with an ancient quality that makes these stones a joy to design jewelry with. Septarian usually does not have a stringing hole, which means these specimens are most commonly used in jewelry thanks to seed bead bezels, wire wrapping or macramé nets and other braiding. Using seed beads, wire or cording that coordinates with the inclusion colors of septarian helps to highlight the pattern and draw attention to the piece. Earthy tones are a favorite to incorporate with septarian, especially in the dark green, brown and taupe color ranges.
