If you are like me, you have had a fascination with gemstones, crystals and the Earth for years but don’t/didn’t understand the connection. I would go into a store and just stare or admire the geodes, clusters, and specimens, always wanting to buy them and bring them home not knowing why. The attraction to gemstones and minerals became so strong that I began my collection without really knowing much about them or really understanding them
Now some people simply collect them for their coloring, their natural looks, their chemical properties, or their monetary value, but I collected them because they made me feel good. Little did I know at that time about their metaphysical properties! I was soon to learn, however, that these little pieces of Earth had their own energy and ideas about what our relationship was going to be!
Many cultures believe that all things have a soul or energy. Though they seem to be dead or unfeeling, gemstones and crystals have energy and vibrations. Don’t believe me - think this is all just a bunch of malarkey? Then how do you explain that watches, computers, and many modern day appliances run on quartz or crystal energy. What is quartz but a gemstone!
Still not convinced? Where do our bodies come from, what are we all made up of? Mother Earth! We all need minerals to live, grow and develop properly. If we are living, breathing energy forms made from the Earth's minerals, then it is only natural to believe we are interconnected to animals, plants and stones.
This blog will be an ongoing and informational discussion about gemstones. We will explore all the different metaphysical aspects of them from astrology, numerology, angelic affiliation, energy & healing properties, as well as making elixirs and more. Please join me on my continuing journey and exploration of these magical stones!
