Petrified wood is a fossil. It forms when plant material is buried by sediment and protected from decay due to oxygen and organisms. Then groundwater, rich in dissolved solids, flows through the sediment, replacing the original plant material with silica, calcite, pyrite, or another inorganic material such as opal. The result is a fossil of the original woody material that often exhibits preserved details of the bark, wood, and cellular structures.
Some specimens of petrified wood are such accurate preservations that people do not realize they are fossils until they pick them up and are shocked by their weight. These specimens with near-perfect preservation are unusual; however, specimens that exhibit clearly recognizable bark and woody structures are very common.

The buffalo meaning is a good message to have because it symbolizes abundance, just like the cricket spirit animal. All the things that you have been working for the past few months will finally be rewarded, and you will finally receive the fruits of your labor.
It's the materialization of your desires, which will lead to your increased abundance. Just know that you will receive what you need when you need it.
The buffalo symbolism is also about prayer. It is reminding you to say a prayer every time, whether something good or bad happens, and just to be grateful for the things that you have and yet to have.
