The amber is not a stone, but a living mineral story, leaked from the body of prehistoric trees. It is the petrified resin that has captured in her heart the light of the sun millions of years ago, carrying the vibration of time.
It is one of the most mysterious treasures of nature, because it does not come from the depths of the earth, but from the sap of the trees that have once grown on the continents today.
The amber not only protects and warms, but awakens asleep memories and connects the soul to the memory of the world.
"The amber, with its golden glow and warmth, is like a ray of sun captured in the crystal, reflecting not only the light, but also the eternal heat and beauty of nature. The amber retains within it the energy of the earth and time, providing protection, clarity and balance to those who allow it to enlighten the path."
1.What is amber - origin, composition and famous deposits
The amber is a fossilized vegetable resin, formed 30-90 million years ago. Coming from prehistoric trees, such as Pinus succinifera, it has solidified over time, suffering slow polymerization and oxidation processes, turning into a translucent, hot and electrifying substance. Its color varies from yellow-miece to intense orange, brown, reddish, or even varnish, blue and black, depending on the training conditions and the interior inclusions.
The most renowned deposits are found in the Baltic Sea region (Poland, Lithuania, Russia), in the Dominican Republic (where the famous blue amber is found), in Myanmar (Burma), but also in other places in Italy, Germany, Canada, and even in Romania, in the Colți area (Buzău County). Each deposit has its own specificity: the Baltic amber is dense and rich in succinic acid, the Dominican amber is clearer and sometimes fluorescent, while the Burmese amber has dark tones and a deep, profound energy. Romanian amber, although rarer, is valued for its authenticity and for its connection to Dacian traditions.
Impressive amber pieces can be admired at the Kaliningrad amber museum, at the Vienna Museum of Natural History or at the Buzau County Museum, where there are some of the oldest Dacian jewelry in prehistoric resin. Also, the Museum of Geology in Bucharest includes remarkable exhibits, often with insects trapped inside, true capsules of time.

2. Legends about amber - the tears of the gods and memories of lost worlds
Chihlimbar is one of the oldest substances used by people for protection, healing and spiritual connection. The ancient Greeks called him "Elektron" - the connection with his static electricity - and they said he came from the tears of the sisters of the Pleiades, who cried the death of their brother Phaeton. The Chinese believed it was the seed of the sun, and the Egyptians considered it the essence of life in solid form, being buried with pharaohs like a light that would guide their way beyond.
The Vikings used the chihlimbar as an offering for goddesses and as a sea protective amulet. In the Slavic culture, it was the stone of the soul and immortality, and in medieval Europe it was carried as a talisman against the eyes and black charms. The Celtic Druids were considered to be the solidification of a divine ray, and the women in the old Germanic tribes wore it for fertility and protection.
In some Asian traditions, it was believed that the souls of the brave warriors withdraw in chihlimbar drops, to be carried further from their descendants. It is one of the few "stones" that bears not only an energy, but a living memory, a subtle presence that accompanies the soul. It is said that when you reach an old piece of amber, memories from other times, ancestral emotions or dreams that do not belong to you can be awakened.
"He thinks you can and are already halfway."
