Pipestone, also known as Minnesota Pipestone or Catlinite, is a sacred red stone formed from compacted clay and ash over millions of years in the Sioux Quartzite beds. Revered by Native American tribes, it’s said to embody the blood of ancestors and is traditionally carved into ceremonial pipes. Metaphysically, Pipestone is believed to promote peace, healing, and spiritual connection, grounding one’s energy and linking the physical and spiritual realms in harmony.
