About this Particular Crystal

This medium high grade Pyrite Sun is a rare, radial crystal formation found only in a narrow coal seam in Sparta, Illinois. With stunning abstract patterning and a radiant metallic sheen, it is composed of pure crystallized pyrite that grows in perfectly flat, disc-like shapes. These formations resemble ancient medallions or fossilized suns, making them a standout among pyrite specimens.

Formed more than 300 million years ago and discovered 300 feet underground, Pyrite Suns are also known as "miner’s dollars," named for the coal miners who once carried them home in their lunchboxes. Their silvery-gold surface captures Earth’s ancient energy in physical form.

Energetically, Pyrite Suns radiate empowering, golden light. Their solar shape aligns with the solar plexus chakra, helping activate personal power, clarity, and confidence. This crystal supports decision-making, manifestation, and energy projection. It reminds you that life is something you shape, not just something that happens to you.

About the Mineral: Pyrite

Pyrite is a stone of willpower, clarity, and aligned action. If you feel like you have the energy to create but no idea where to direct it, pyrite can help shift that. When our energy is scattered or blocked by hesitation, we often experience outcomes that feel misaligned or out of our control. Pyrite supports the mental clarity and confidence needed to act with purpose and conviction.

It is especially useful when you're working through fear, doubt, or indecision. Pyrite helps focus your energy and direct it toward outcomes that serve your higher self and align with Source energy. This crystal forms in various structures (cubes, nodules, and discs) each one reflecting pyrite’s ability to channel energy in dynamic, intentional ways.
