    Crystals choose who owns them ... end of story.
    That is so true Calz. Twenty years or so ago a friend of mine (another piscean) kept leaving a beautiful piece of amethyst round my place by accident, it was always falling out of his pockets or whatever and I would keep finding it. My friends mum was a witch and told him the rock wanted to be with me and to give it to me so he did. Ive still got it to this day. Ive moved around heaps since then and lost it a few times but it always comes back to me. Sadly my friend passed away a victim of too much too young so the amethyst also keeps my connection with him alive.
    More of the "at home stock" are magnificent rose quartz and amethyst spheres.

    Many others but those are the real keepers I have been blessed with.

    PL, the idea of Tony knowing ANY sort of magic makes me nervous ... is someone keeping an eye on him?

    Quote I've toyed with the idea of opening a rock shop, but that wouldn't work because if I knew someone needed a piece I can't not give it to them.
    I can imagine that PL! I've given stuff away and forgot, then looked all over before remembering.

    My most memorable time was in a metaphysical store in the 80's where I had just bought a book on flower essences (Gurudus, as I recall), what they did and how to make them, the plant devas, etc. I overheard a young man and woman talking, and could feel how desperately they wanted to buy that same book. It came to me that the book was for them. The woman understood right away, but it was very hard for the guy to accept it from a total stranger. Somehow I think he did some good stuff with that knowledge and it's one of my fondest memories. The funny thing is, I encounter information from that book from time to time, like the Universe is sending me what I needed from it if I ask. It remains one of my best here and now experiences.
    Close, it is/was Gurudas. He started the Pegasus flower essence and gem elixir company. His books are "Flowers Essences and Vibrational Healing", Gem Elixirs and Vibrational Healing Vol.l", Gem Elixirs and Vibrational Healing Vol.ll, (now out of print) and The Spiritual Properties of Herbs" (also out of print). His last book was an expose called, "Treason:The New World Order". He failed to survive that. He was dead not too long after the release of it.

    Update: I checked Amazon and there are a few of the out of print books available. Their prices will let you know how rare they are. The cheapest is $49.50 and some go into the hundreds of dollars. These books originally sold in the 13 dollar range.

    Wizards. Always a pleasure to have around when they do not meddle. Well met , PL. Aquamarine, the color for the Thymus chakra is my operational field. As such, both Blue and Green are the colors I deal with. Communication and Heart energy. The Heart/Love is the real power and very misunderstood. The edge it can present is the most misunderstood part. It is never maudlin.

    I have finished clearing the snow that needed to be removed. Mid-forties temps are doing the rest now. Obtaining wood is the next phase. My biggest challenge is sharing space with my wife. Great lady but I really like being alone. That said, everything is good and relatively mellow.

    I will have to post a new picture from my Tower. My Winter residence.

    For grounding, I keep some black tourmaline handy at all times. Of course, along with the black I also like to carry watermelon tourmaline, black andradite garnet, smoky quartz, azurite, lapis lazuli, sugilite, petalite, more azurite, a herkimer, some tibetan quartz, some amethyst, one piece of amethyst is rutilated or possibly included with cacoxenite-not sure which, aquamarine, some moldavite, some dried lavendar, some white snakeroot, some emerald, blue goldstone, an opal with purple and blue fire, all of which is distrubuted around my person on a given day. When I get home, it's like shedding a suit of armor, and I lose about a pound.
    Far out dude.................that's quite an arsenal!

    Here's what I usually carry for protection..........

    Queen Toots,

    I would only use my magic for good, like blessing my breakfast cereal and milk, which I just did. It works a treat!


    Quote Posted by Calz_Avaretard (here)

    Too true Cal. I once bought three crystals, including a Lemurian, and it was uncanny; it did not want me to put it back on the shelf. I mean, I did, but then it would kinda sing out to me "pick me up again!" which I did, and truly felt that it wanted to come home with me. I even mentioned it to the two women working in the shop. They had a golly good laugh, and explained that that is how crystals work.
    It is the same with rocks in general; some just wanna come home with me, and they end up on my fireplace hearth, with plenty of other rocks to chat with.

    I have read that around twenty five percent of commercially available crystals are inhabited by elementals, and have seen some brilliant real-time video that was taken using polycontrast interference photography (PIP), which was developed by Harry Oldfied. It shows the elementals reacting to both human and feline energy fields; popping in and out of the crystal depending on others movements. Dang!! I wish I could find the vid. If I do, I'll either post it here, or start a thread, as it is truly mind-blowing!!

    Here are my fire-side rock collection and bed-side crystals.







    The Lemurian is on the left, which most of you would already know.

    Dude you made me laugh then choke and laugh some more. Talk about hitting close to home, in Miss'ippi! We might have some inbred genes, but they're *good* inbred genes. Seriously, I laughed until my chest hurt.

    That's awesome, Nora! I freaking love tourmaline. I've got a bunch, in fact the most valuable pieces I own are some green that's gem grade, about as thick as a finger and an inch and a half long and clear, or very little flaws. Of course they are buried under a few inches of wax on the altar outside.... Safest place for 'em, I reckon. A few of my blue pieces are purple on the inside. I also have a really nice yellow orange and red piece that's possibly the nicest, gemwise, but it was loaned out to a friend who need it for elixers. I will probably be hearing from her soon, since I've talked about her. She is pretty adept at animal communication, and is professionally a zoo keeper.

    I confess to knowing nothing about crystals and rocks, however the other day I was in the 'crystal castle' near where I live and felt very good when holding citrine. Would one or more of you crystal wizards give me your impressions of citrine. I can and have looked it up for the fairly generic interpretations of it's properties and uses, but would like to hear from your unique and experiential perspectives about it please?

    I grew up not too far from the tourmaline mine in Pala, Ca. I do sometimes get the chance to visit the area. I very much like going to the gem and mineral shows in Tucson and Quartzsite Az. I would sometimes buy alot of crystals, rocks and gems and give them away especially the rose quartz. I found that too to go at the end of the shows the prices were much better and the venders did not want to cart alot home with them.

    Rock hounding hunting is always fun though you never know what you will find.

    I haven't seen very much of red tourmaline. Is it the deep red? I forgot to mention I like peridot also -I like them loose better than in a setting. I don't carry a box of rocks on me like you but I do carry one or more on me and have a moonstone I never take off and I've been known to wear an arrowhead necklace made of either agate, obsidian or onyx. I work a lot with amethyst, clear quartz, rose quarts and celestite at the moment. One of the black tourmaline it's solid -looks like the top of a volcano- I put on my window above bed. I would love to get a large herkemer (sp)? diamond. I resonate with them well.

    I confess to knowing nothing about crystals and rocks, however the other day I was in the 'crystal castle' near where I live and felt very good when holding citrine. Would one or more of you crystal wizards give me your impressions of citrine. I can and have looked it up for the fairly generic interpretations of it's properties and uses, but would like to hear from your unique and experiential perspectives about it please?
    I do know that it is very good for the liver, kidney and gallbladder pyrite helps too. I am not a wizard only an amateur -know only a little modwiz could help you out.

    Watermelon tourmaline, moonstone and rainbow opal are some of my favorites.
    I got fascinated with a piece of moldavite, but finally had to bury it in my backyard because the energy was too disharmonious for me.
    I was just gifted with a piece of Orion Phantom crystal which is supposed to be helpful with channeling.
    I just posted something about it here:

    Then I got drawn to this thread.
    Synchronicity happens!
