Connect with higher wisdom with the help of one of our Flame Stone Scepters. Also known as Yooperlite from Michgan's Upper Peninsula (UP; its residents are "Yoopers"), these carvings glow brightly under UV light, illuminating your way to the Divine.

Michigan's Yooperlites are actually syenite rocks, rich in minerals such as sodalite, which emit a bright orange or yellowish glow when exposed to UV light.

Thanks for the tip Sara M!

A cool birthday gift from my husband! I collect minerals and have been after UV reactive ones lately. I had a cheap dual wave UV light that likes to die, so he got me a more powerful longwave UV flashlight. It really makes most of the rocks glow and as a bonus, seems to charge up my glow-in-the-dark stuff real fast!
