Some of the techniques I use are similar. I am first generation Canadian, my family moved from the Netherlands, but we trace our lineage to the Saami peoples. Most of what I practice is Northern European and Saami. As one can only expect, there are similarities in most practices and traditions. You would think there was a collective unconscioius or something silly like that!!

So, does anyone have good ideas for what one could use rutilated quartz for?
When I was cleaning stuff yesterday I found a set of 'throwing stones' my ex made for herself. I don't want them. My first inclination was to toss them, then I thought about sending them back to her. She has not missed them, or asked about them.... thoughts from anyone would be appreciated.

You could cleanse them, then tie thread around them and hang them in the windows?
Cleanse them and use in floating candle displays? The only Gemstones I use are NZ Jade and Pearl...sorry, I can't be more help.

When I first realized what they were, and that they were not mine, I felt this overwhelming desire to throw them away. But, they were made in a sacred manner for doing sacred work... I just could not be that disrespectful to the spiritual energy put into them. I think my desire to throw them away was/is tied to my own emotional baggage, and not to anything regarding the stones themselves.

I know what it is like to have stones call to you.At times have had that happen so would buy the stone thinking the angels are telling me I should use it instead turns out no I was only to be the delivery person and give it to another. I have Moldavite ring that I love wearing and at times when meditating will place it on my forhead and go into a deeper meditation.Also find myself drawn to Labradorite have 2 rings made of that.Friends jokingly call me a stonehead in a good way that is.Grin

Stonehead... that's funny. Labradorite is very beautiful. I like that it is a Canadian mineral too. My favorites are amber, jet, lapis, chrysocolla and obsidian. And white shells, I am gifted with white shells all the time. I have a shelf in my healing room dedictated those wonderful gifts.

Bumping this thread...
Bringing in some Blue Kyanite to facilitate conversation... i love this stone and keep it on my desk at work. It's awesome because it doesn't hold negativity and brings me balance. i have some black and green too but they stay at home. my absolute fav piece of blue came from right here in NC and is a hunk mixed with mica. How about everyone else? What brings you balance? Helps you daily? What stones/crystals do you resonate with the most? Does it change from day to day? |

i confess to having several rather large pieces in the trunk of my car. Most came from a creek at a local gold mine and another came from the NC mountains. i used to have a local piece but the energy suddenly changed so dramatically that a few months ago i returned it from whence it came...shudder...seriously negative energy that simply could not be cleansed so it had to go. What a difference afterward...all the negative energy left my home. Some days other stones/crystals may call me but i am firmly attached to quartz. |

Today's stone is Indonesian Petrified Wood. Petrified Wood is a stone of patience, healing, protection, longevity and grounding. It can help keep you calm and bring you peace during your quiet times.
Here is an example in branch form. |

I'm a fan of petrified wood and also of the Petoskey stone (petrified brain coral). I use this to remind myself that my every day pains and gains are all just a blink of an eye to these stones.

Sodalite
Today's stone was selected by Clay who just loves it because of it's peaceful energy and color.
Sodalite...a deep blue stone similar in color to Lapis but without the golden streaks and flecks. Like most of the blue stones Sodalite helps with communication. It's a wonderful stone for creative people helping to balance the mind. It also helps bring unity to mind and spirit. It can aid in bringing about inner peace by clearing confusion and inner turmoil. It's been said to be the best stone to help eliminate fear and guilt. It brings the mind and heart into balance. |
