r/Moldavite

Kind of moldavite related. I’m finding some conflicting information online, if I in the U.S order a product from Czech Republic, will there be tariffs charged to me before I can get my package? I thought someone in here might have recent experience

Hey Redditors, and thank you to everyone for visiting this post. I genuinely need some advice, so please read this carefully from start to end.

Around the middle of October, I bought my first piece of Moldavite, and later I bought two more. So currently, I have around three pieces with me, and it has been around seven to eight months since I started using Moldavite.

One thing I realized over time is that you don’t really start believing in the stone itself. Instead, it somehow makes you believe in yourself. It feels like a very powerful manifestation tool. Whatever you deeply think or feel inside, you start seeing those things happen in reality.

For example, if you are wearing it and thinking about being confident, influencing someone, making a sale, or dominating a conversation, you genuinely start seeing those things happen naturally. Another example is while playing chess, during the game you move unconsciously, but afterward you suddenly realize how strategic and accurate your moves actually were.

This happened with me many times, and through repeated patterns I slowly started understanding how this thing works. Earlier, I heavily considered it a placebo effect, but now I honestly don’t think so anymore.

Now please read this part very carefully.

When I say this is not BS, I genuinely mean it.

If you are not ready to face your dark realities, your hidden issues, suppressed emotions, harsh truths about yourself and your life, then you are simply not made for Moldavite.

Because this thing throws realities directly onto your face in an extremely harsh way. And if you keep avoiding those realities, eventually it puts you into situations where you are forced to accept them anyway. And that phase can become very depressing.

Slowly, I started becoming scared of it. It feels like it slowly reveals deeper and deeper layers over time. My relationships got disturbed, I started having fights with many friends, my bond with my family became worse, and I even left my work.

Currently, I am living with the harsh reality it has thrown at me, and these problems keep increasing slowly. I know the reason behind it because earlier I used to take this thing very lightly. But trust me, it’s not a cup of tea.

Another important thing is that after almost three years, I am shifting back to my parents’ home. My father passed away in 2022, and currently my mother and elder sister stay there. My relationship with them is already not very good.

And I have noticed something else too, it feels like Moldavite not only affects you, but also shakes the environment and people around you emotionally and mentally.

So I genuinely want to ask -
Should I sell it out or should I continue with it?

Because it feels very harsh for me, and I honestly don’t know what more realities or situations may appear ahead that could become even harder to handle.

My mother already has many health issues, and I am genuinely worried that my family should not get harmed, their lives should not get disturbed further, and my relationship with them should not get ruined more than it already is.

I am already facing a lot of hardships myself.

As the title says, yes that really did happen. In 2023 I had just bought a new home and everything was great. 3 months into it my wife cheated. This sent me into a spiral of depression, anxiety, and overall a feeling of being lost. During that time I decided to try to better myself and find myself. I stopped drinking alcohol and adderall and started smoking. That was I believe the start of my spiritual journey. I knew nothing about stones crystals before this.

You know how they say you’re led to moldavite? Here’s how my story began.

One day I matched with a girl on hinge a dating app. We both smoked and one day we decided to go to a place in Atlanta called ponce city market. We smoked in the car, ate at a Mexican restaurant then decided to walk around. She was into the spiritual stuff and all types of conspiracy theories just to show what type of woman she was. We ended up in a place called Modern Mystic iykyk. A beautiful store with all things spiritual.

I didn’t think much of it and while she was checking out, behind the glass counter were a few assorted stones that were much more expensive than everything else in the store. Me back then being ego driven and wanting to show out in front of my date decided to see what the fuss was about. I asked what was moldavite and why was it so expensive. I got the rundown and the consensus was that it’s nothing to play with, it’s for transforming you into your higher self, and it rids you of things that aren’t meant for your growth. Lastly you’re led to it when it’s meant to be.

With all of the circumstances I was newly faced with I said fk it and bout a 2G piece for about $200. That was the start of exactly what it was advertised as.

Over the next year my life went from a high to complete rock bottom, all capped off with me losing my home.

The first 2g piece led me down a rabbit hole of all crystals and learning what they meant, and chakras and healing. Along with that I experimented with mushrooms and acid. Which was something that I couldn’t take and eventually was diagnosed with schizophrenia. All of this I think was sped up by bringing moldavite into my life. These were things that I’d never thought about doing and led to me becoming a better person and finding myself. I lost my ego. My losing my mental caused me to distance myself from all of the people around me and the only ones that stayed during my crisis were the people that needed to be there.

Along the way I ended up grabbing more pieces. A 5g piece. And a 7g piece. I eventually threw the 7g piece as far as I could into the woods one day because it was too strong and I felt that one day someone who needed it would find it. The 2g piece I gifted to a family member, and the 5g piece stayed with me until I felt it was time to really part ways.

The 5g piece at some point during that time became too strong and I got rid of it, but one day my conscious told me to go outside, then go in the garage and look to my left. I did exactly that and the 5g piece was sitting in the corner of the garage and I hadn’t placed it there. That’s when I knew that the things people say about it were real. The last thing that needed to happen for me to elevate was the house. The perfect house that I had got built with my family not even a year before that held so much trauma. Things that I didn’t mention in this drawn out text happened there. The depression. The loneliness. The struggle of having all of the material things I wanted but not being happy.

Long story short, I had got into a bit of trouble during that time and there was a warrant out for my arrest. A misdemeanor, but somehow they decided to bring the swat team to my house. Literally happened the day after I was led back to that piece of moldavite that I had got rid of. The house was destroyed, windows busted out, and a truck ran through the back of it. And I was arrested and sent to finally get help for my mental health.

Now through all of the traumatic experiences that happened that year that ended with me finding my moldavite and being arrested and losing that home, I in all honesty knew what I signed up for when I got it that faithful ego driven day when I said how bad could it be, and no Little Rock was that powerful.

I am more than grateful for the transformation that moldavite brought me. I am not the same person that I was before it. I’m sober, I have a better relationship with my family, my kids are great, I have no ego, I’m back working in my career field, I’m at peace, and just became everything I’ve always wanted to be. It took losing it all and trusting in the unseen that it was all happening for a better purpose. The moldavite just sped up the process. I hope that this helps anyone out who’s on their moldavite journey.

I’ll be glad to share pictures and videos of anything you find in question about things said in this post. A lot was left out but just know the power in that little tektite is real.

I'm thinking of buying a moldavite pendant and wanted to know what everyone else's experience is. I did a sub search and I found a couple of positive comments, but wanted to see if anyone out there had a negative experience. Thanks in advance!

What makes one moldavite more valuable than another?

Not all moldavites are valued the same.

Even stones with the exact same weight can have completely different prices.

Some of the biggest factors are:

👉 Locality:

Certain localities are much rarer or more desirable than others.

👉 Sculpting / texture:

Deep, detailed surface sculpting is usually more appreciated by collectors.

👉 Shape:

Interesting or aesthetic shapes can increase value a lot.

👉 Condition:

Damage, fresh breaks or chips can affect value, although natural ancient breaks are often accepted by collectors.

👉 Size:

Larger pieces are usually rarer, which increases the price per gram.

At the end, every collector values something different 😊

Some people love perfect sculpting, others prefer unusual shapes or large pieces.

That’s part of what makes moldavite collecting so interesting. 💚
