What Are Lizard Pearls?
Lizard pearls are small, rounded stones that are often sold in New Age stores and mystical and metaphysical shops. They come in various luminescent colors, each bearing the name of a creature, such as gecko or dragon. Lizard pearls are sold as artifacts for spiritual healing and growth.

Power
-
Lizard stones are said to be charged with magical and spiritual energies. Due to their physical makeup and shape, they resonate with certain higher frequencies of energy and consciousness, according to Mani Zone. When they are held, they aid the bearer in developing his consciousness. They can also aid in healing, as some believe that many or all ailments are ultimately spiritual in nature and thus can be healed through spiritual means.
Shamans
-
Lizard stones are supposedly found deep in jungles and other undisturbed natural habitats. Genuine stones are found by advanced shamans who go on specific quests to find them. The shamans perform rituals to access knowledge of where the stones can be found and embark on a sacred quest to find them. Some stones are said to come from the remains of animal corpses and have developed like pearls inside their bodies while they were alive, according to Indotalisman. Other stones come from dead plants, and some are found in abandoned animal nests.

Discerning the Real From the Fake
-
Some dealers say that one can feel intense energy radiating from lizard stones while holding them. When holding a stone between your fingers, you may feel these energies flowing through your fingers. Real lizard stones are said to contain the presence of a spirit that dwells within it, and psychics should be able to discern the presence or absence of such a spirit. Real lizard stones must be found by a shaman or spiritually evolved person, so the source of the stone is also an indicator of its authenticity.
Original Locations
-
The majority of sources selling genuine lizard stones import them from Indonesia. Genuine stones are said to be found by local shamans and then sold or given to dealers' sources by the shamans themselves or local chieftains. Dealers claim to have networks of local connections who have had longstanding and genuine relationships with native shamans of the region. These networks acquire the stones and import them.
