Mookaite Jasper Gemstone Animal Carving Lizard Rock Another unique carving. I have several of these, but they are hand carved and each one is different! Mookaite (sometimes spelled Mookite) is a colorful Jasper from Western Australia. This Jasper is a warm, earthy flood of reds, yellows and browns. It is formed as a sediment in erosion zones and as a filler in cracks. Mookaite is named for where is was first found — in outcrops, principally on Mooka Station (a sheep farm of around 700,000 acres), on the west side of the Kennedy Range in Western Australia. In Australia, Mookaite was and still is considered to be a healing stone that bestows strength. It is said to shield the wearer from difficult situations and to connect us to loved ones who have passed away. This gemstone is believed to bring us into the "here and now," aiding with problem assessment and decision making. Mookaite is often used to treat glandular or stomach disorders, hernias, ruptures and water retention. This hand carved lizard is 6 inches long by 1.75 inches wide and stands almost 3 inches tall. It has lots of detail and is very nice! It has a matte finish-not polished, though it has a slight shine . Sorry I'm not knowledgable enough to know what type of Iguana or Lizard it is! Lizard represents foresight, vision, dreaming, letting go, and facing fears and confrontations. One of the few reptiles recognized as helpful to the shaman.
