Rocks, Stones, Gemstones--Metaphysical Purposes

Miss Scarlett · 11-20-2010, 09:25 AM

I am now the honored caretaker of several new items:

a pair of Amethyst spheres; each much larger than a tennis ball

Rose Quartz sphere; slightly larger than a golf ball

Black Agate sphere with a beautiful clear quartz "eye"; this sphere is also larger than a tennis ball

Amethyst point and a Quartz point; each about 3"

Clear Quartz Ema Egg

Amethyst Ema Egg

Ema Eggs are river tumbled stones found in the Ema River in Brazil. The outside is kind of frosted and they are cut to expose a beautiful "window" allowing you to view a clear center. They are also called Seer Stones or Window Quartz. http://crystal-cure.com/window-quartz.html

Onyx pyramid -green/tan varigated

Black Onyx cat with gemstone collar and Abalone ears

Blue Quartz slab

Bloodstone slab

a large piece of Lava rock collected in NC

Third Eye Agate http://www.faroutthings.com/xcart/pr...cat=289&page=1

Shiva Lingam stone http://crystal-cure.com/shivalingam.html

3 moonstones

large Selenite tower (uncarved)

another large piece of uncarved Selenite - this lays on its side and is more of a trough shape

about a dozen or so pieces of Tibetan Quartz, including three Enhydros

a geode half that I am 99.99% certain is Blue Chalcedony

From my Dad & stepmother's trip AZ/NM:

about a dozen rocks my Dad collected for me from the South Rim of the Grand Canyon and a small amount (about 2-3 tablespoons) of soil from Monument Valley (collected with permission)

From the last trip to the Old Reed Gold Mine:

White Quartz from outside the mine (it's one of the indicator rocks for gold veins) and several huge pieces of Slate and Quartz from the semi-dry creekbed. I had some gold flakes from panning but gave it to Shelia since she was more interested in than I was - I was interested in the larger, native to the area, rocks in the pans we were told to discard...Noooooooooooooooo!

Once again I did not spend much on the items that were purchased - they just have a way of finding me

I'm heading to Maggie for the holiday. Naturally I will visit my favorite shops there. It will be interesting to see what follows me home.

Thank you, it really is.

Some pink Kunzite and a Rainbow Obsidian sphere adopted me yesterday.

Since I will be in Maggie on Friday I'm going to pay a little visit to the Maggie Valley Rock Shop and the Dish Barn and see who follows me home. If I wasn't going by myself I would hike up on Chambers Mountain - there's a lot of Kyanite up there. I love Kyanite but not nearly as much as I love Jet! I have it everywhere and am patiently (not) waiting for the right piece of Whitby Jet to find me.

the Borealis Meditation podcast is pretty cool - a geology grad? student discussing rocks, minerals, etc - both the sciency and metaphysical aspects.

So many new friends followed me home from the mountains:

Unakite - a huge chunk from Mitchell County;
Tibetan Turquoise;
a large Smoky Elestial Quartz;
a huge piece of Sodalite;
Ruby in Zoisite - 2 really good size pieces;
Fuschite - one small piece and one really large;
Ema Eggs - 3 large, 3 small - these are all oblong pillars and have an additional cut so they all stand;
Celestite;
a piece of multicoloured Calcite - brown, red, orange and blue;
13 assorted, small quartz points, including a couple of laser wands, some recordkeepers, singers, bridges and barnacles - many are also empathetic crystals;
a large, about 3-4", Planet Quartz point that is also hematoid and water clear with fractures creating lots of rainbows;
a small Tektite; and
2 small clear quartz clusters

Also, I was gifted with an absolutely beautiful green garnet.

I am going to have such wonderful adventures with these new friends!
