THE MAGIC OF ROCKS AND CRYSTALS 

Rocks and Crystals are magical. What you may consider an insignificant rock possesses mystical qualities. They might protect your boundaries, bring you fortune and joy, increase your luck, bring love, harmony, success, and good health into your daily life, or promote harmony. 

I often say the stones I use speak to me because I am a great listener. They tell me what stone or stones they want to talk to and I introduce them. Kind of like a matchmaker. They speak to me. We play, we harmonize, we seek peace. I am a sensitive, an artist, and a stone listener. 

My customers comment on the combinations of stones, colors, and metals. If the combinations speak to me, they will probably speak to you. If they bring you a sense of peace and joy, they will probably bring you a sense of peace and joy. 

In case you’re interested, here’s some information about the stones I use and their special qualities. (You can cleanse and re-energize your stones. To “cleanse” your stones after purchase by taking a few deep breaths to clear your mind. Pick up your piece of jewelry and focus on removing any negative energy it might hold. Say to yourself, “I cleanse these crystals with peace and love.” While visualizing bad energy that is released going back into the ground and absorbed into Mother Earth, breathe in deeply and exhale forcefully on it. Repeat several times for large faceted stones. To “re-energize” your stones, place them in the sunlight outside for about 24 hours.)
