Rocks, Stones, Gemstones--Metaphysical Purposes

Bootboi · 11-20-2009, 12:14 PM

This is a very cool experience Bit. I guess I shouldnt have been so greedy and left an offering myself. However, I was more on a mission to find pease than true love.

I left an offering on Bell Rock and asked for help finding my love. A week later Gryph walked into my life.

Hey everyone. I am a collector of stones too. When I did massage, I offered stones at the end for a take home gift. I never picked the stones. I allowed the client to close their eyes and allow their spirits to pick. I would advise them on how to clean them and charge them.

It's funny though, as I am growing older, I seem to be losing touch with the spiritual aspects of my life that I once enjoyed. I think that I am being drawn back to it, this process seems slow coming though.

F.Y.I. My favorite stone is a cross stone that I found at the beach.

I use stones in my healing work. I like to put stones in my patients hands while I am working. I find it helps to keep some people present. I also use stones to help me to get stuff out of the body, when needed. I also use different stones for healing wheels. There are some wheels that use very specific stones and then some that are built with intuition.

Right now in my life I have no need for more stones. Not that I don't want more stones, but I seriously do not need more stones. Its like that with candles too... I keep saying to myself as I am inevitably drawn to the shiney things... I need another one like I need another hole in the head, hole in the head. And that generally stops me!!

I have had crystal healings. Sometimes the energy of all of those stones is pretty darn intense. But I find it quite healing.

I just went to get a stone as a gift. Couldn't get to my boxes of rocks. Turned around and got tugged on by a hunk of quartz. It's not the clearest or the sparkliest but wow! The energy was amazing. I've never felt that energy from this stone.

It was almost as if my thinking about needing a gift activated that stone to be "seen."

Anyone ever have this before?

Bumping this thread to remind me to ask Gryph about activating stones.... I haven't had that happen Arwen, but I haven't worked with stones that much.

Don't sleep too close to an amethyst if you're mind isn't right. Just sayin! Anyway my favorite used to be emerald but I've moved on to hematite. I love the magnet in them for some reason. I'm sure there is a spiritual connection going on there but I have no clue what it is right now. I like to play with them or wear them around my neck.

Hematite's very grounding. I carried it for a while when I was feeling disconnected; it helped me settle down.

Arwen, have you had any more stones "activate"?
