Orthoceras Fossil from Morocco

From Morocco, this listing is for an orthoceras fossil. Several orthoceras creatures make this limestone matrix their forever home. The orthoceras are forever preserved in stone, the carvers selecting a piece that will show the fossils after cutting and polishing. 

Orthoceras is a genus of extinct nautiloid cephalopod restricted to Middle Ordovician-aged marine limestones of the Baltic States and Sweden. This genus is sometimes called Orthoceratites. Embedded in limestone, it's harvested from the ocean floor.

Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage. -Aniis Nin

Take yourself back to a time when there was pure hope - everything seemed (and was) possible. Use Ammonite to meditate on this very thought and lift yourself out of reach of the day to day. Ammonites are a reminder for f the ever changing and evolving landscape of life, the spiral is the most basic component to all life - the DNA helix and represents transformation. Meditate on the upward spiraling movement of Ammonite to open yourself to the next phase of your growth and development as a spiritual being.
