Cintamani itself is translated as meaning, “thought-gem” or “wishing stone.” Saffordites when seen with the naked eye look like a common brown coloured stone. Looking closer though this stone has tiny moon-like craters and dimples. When held up to the sun it changes to lavender or grey-green opaqueness. Moreover, when held up to a flashlight, they blaze fiery orange to bright yellow and become nearly transparent, showing lines and dimples within the rock. When this occurs you are holding a glowing stone with high vibrational energy and can physically sense the energy it possesses, it definitely feels charged up and warm. Radiating loving grounding energy.
