I'd love to hear more about them. Oh Gryyyyyyyyyyph, where are you, darlin?

I would very much agree and I would suggest you get some brown jasper as well. It's a good healing, stable stone.

Do you think color is important in ones environment as well? Mom wants lots of reds in the boys room and is sewing curtains, pillows and some other stuff for his room. This is all new to me and I'd love to hear others thoughts.

I agree with your mama about the color being important. I know next to nothing about Ruby people. I think maybe they are the children of Indigos? bit? Do you know?

Adele, I'll do some research on other healing for you. My first thought is that you also need garnet. Check with your Mama though. She sounds like my kind of gal!

We can go back to the rock shop...if I can find it. I don't remember the name of it, do you?

A few of my favorites are fire opal, jasper, hematite, and amber. I also love silver and copper.

I adore fire opal but it LEAPS out of my hand usually. People laugh but it does. Amber...do not come around me if you have on amber jewelry.

I will totally mug you for it!

I also picked up some Red Stones from the Bell Rock Vortex area in Sedona as well. It is legended for its healing powers as well.

I truly love Sedona. Have been once. Want to go back some day. Marvelous place.

I use Quartz crystal to clear bad energy out and let the good in.. Seems to work too!

I really like that you have rocks from all over the world. Just no lava from Hawaii, right?

My mother used to despair of me. I always had rocks in my pockets as a kid...then I started it again when I was an adult. ha!
