Term: Fairy Cross

DEFINITIONS

Fairy Cross: Also know as a fairy stone, this rock comes in the shape of a cross. In addition to its obvious link to Christianity, the stone is also said to represent the four elements of earth, air, fire, and water. Fairy cross makes a natural good luck charm. It is also sometimes called andalusite, chiastolite, or staurolite.
