Dendritic Opal’s name derives from the Greek dendritēs ‘treelike’, which then comes from dendron ‘tree’. This is in reference to the gorgeous fern-like inclusions that mimic the appearance of a tree's growth due to the presence of manganese oxides or silicates. Because it’s grounding your perspective with mental and emotional fortitude, you are better able to evaluate your choices and expectations and modulate your expectations - delays in “getting what you want” will no longer perturb you. You will be able to discern any lessons embedded within that delay and potentially plan a different way forward. It will help you forge a path to get you to your highest possible intention. Besides the lacy inclusions, Dendritic Opal features lovely milky white.
