I just recently purchaced a Sapphire, just one of those you can get relatively cheaply, it's octogonal and I suppose it's a cut-out slice of a stone. But on one side, more so than the other, it has a lovely actually purple sheen.
When I put it on, in one of those crystal cages that spiral around the stone, it was just like a flow of cool water... It was in harmony with me, it was a wonderful, mild presence... It felt like cool breeze on a chain around my neck... I am totally in awe of this stone!
And it looks great, it's got an amazing shine, I couldn't get my eyes off it at the shop.
What's your most recent experince with crystals? Which one did you recently get, find, rediscover, buy?
Today I visited an eclectic shop an hour away from where I live for the first time, and I bought a bunch of crystals, among them Moonstone, Citrine, and Smokey Quartz. I've had several experiences worthy of sharing.
The first experience took place in the store. Most of the bowls of stones were clearly marked, but there was one box of green swirly stones that wasn't marked at all. Strangely, one particular stone kept catching my eye and it was in this unmarked bowl. It is kind of in a curved shape and fits easily in my grip, and the color was a deep emerald green with lighter swirls in a triangular shape similar to a God's Eye. Upon receiving my receipt and taking this lovely stone home with me, I learned it was called Malachite, which is used for (among other things) increasing creativity. As a writer and constant daydreamer, I was rather surprised by this.
The other took place earlier this evening. I had Moonstone, Citrine, Kyanite, and Sodalite crystals in a small pouch in my pocket as I was eating dinner with my father. Now, my father doesn't think much of me and sometimes he makes it very clear, which affects my emotional state. I was out walking up and down my driveway like I normally do after dinner and began getting negative thoughts and emotions. I stopped walking and went inside, taking out my crystals and taking a few minutes to meditate with the Citrine in one hand and the pouch of other stones held tightly in the other. I suddenly got a jolt of something in my gut, and just as suddenly decided to go out and try again with my walking routine. It was much easier the second time around, as I kept the pouch in my hand as I walked. I felt much better after that meditation session, and while that jolt is still something of a mystery I take it to be a sign that the negativity had stopped and/or was gone.
