I haven't checked in on this thread for a while and after looking at all the absolutely gorgeous stones all I can say is...Wow!! :love: :bugeyed: :love:
I must remember to stay in touch here more often. Thank you to everyone for sharing. :)
i forget to pop in, too, and am completely hooked again, of course :D

Oh I adore those beautiful spheresšŸ˜ I can feel them through this phone. Strong little darlings they are .....
Yes... i've never met them, but they make themselves felt, those beautiful little spheres, don't they. A hearty little bundle of energy! :)

Linnie, what a LOVELY sphere!!! I love all the colors in it, which I know is common with a Rainforest Jasper. Just beautiful!

The Mangano Calcite is also lovely. It reminds me of a rose quartz and I thought at first it was that with inclusions in it. I can feel the love of it just coming from the picture and so I am sure it is a calming and nurturing, loving stone.

Calayvie, your leopard skin jasper heart crystal is also beautiful, too. I love jaspers! This one immediately made me think of my power animal, (Jaguar), due to its spots--and of course its a "Leopard skin" jasper. I have some jaspers--but not one like this with the black spots that really jumped out at me! I'll have to look for one like this. :)

Of course, I had to google its properties, and it is also known as "The Jaguar Stone". So, I must get one soon! :D (you're such an enabler!!!) I see it is also a healing stone, among many of its other qualities and especially for chronic health conditions. So a must for me again!!!

and, yikes! I'm due at work in less then 20 minutes....so off and running!!! (another reason why I need that stone! maybe it would help me to be as fast as a jaguar! ;) ).

Hi Celticnoodle, [emoji1] I actually chose this stone because it was the only one by the seller labelled as a Jaguar Stone, amongst some other leopardskin jaspers!
So I took it as a sign from my spirit Jaguar that I should get this stone! And it turned out to be perfect for me! I feel like I've connected wonderfully with it and it supports and strengthens me. Its such a reminder of the beauty in "imperfection", and the lessons in life that even though painful, are necessary to produce the uniqueness and beauty of each person. I'm really pleased I found it!
And I hope you find one that suits you beautifully too! [emoji4]

I can blame it on being a Libra. :D My husband even says that even when I walk it looks like I'm floating on air a few inches above the ground. :laugh:
Pisces-Aquarius cusp with all planets in either one or the other of those, save for one in Libra and the Moon, thank goodness, in Aries... I've found my excuse, too :D

Seeing these photos makes me so happy. Here's a couple of babies I was hanging out with yesterday, rose quartz rough and labradorite.

yes, well, now I must find one for myself! :D

:laugh: welcome to the "Diz Club", Linnie! ;)

Absolutely the Jaguar stone... I think that's why I had such a bond with it a few years ago... :) Maybe it could help you shapeshift and travel through different realms and just pop out at work way ahead of time!!
:laugh: I was only a few minutes late, but because I'm normally about 15-20 min. early, they were beginning to worry about me and they had just dialed my phone--which I forgot and left at home! :laugh: Oh well--got there and we had a good class. :)

Mangano is one that I now find palmstones or pebbles of to give to people rather than rose quartz... to me it is even more gentle and nurturing... two beautiful young women, neighbours of mine, lost their dad recently to depression. I gave them a beautiful sphere of mangano, one i'd kept 'just in case'... their mum told me that all 3 of them cuddle it and love it a lot... I love gifting stones at the right moment... just gentle, quiet, support...
This is yet another crystal I will have to look for too. I love that you give crystals out to people. That is so nice! :)

I'm falling "in love" with crystal collecting currently. Hubby was wanting to buy me a Samsung Galaxy View Tablet for Christmas. (he's a HUGE Samsung fan, :rolleyes:) I didn't ask for one--and I know its because HE wants one. :laugh: But, I am actually thinking instead of getting some crystals and perhaps a wonderful sphere as well. I'd much rather have that instead of a tablet. :D

Glad you're hanging out in such lovely company, suk :D Both delightful.

Well, I've been part of the local Diz club for nearly 6 decades!!! Just getting a tad dizzier as each decade rolls on by :D

Of course you did!!! :D And getting there and having a good time is what matters, eh? :)

Mangano is scrumptious... sooooo very gentle....Like a gentle breeze of an energy caress :) I hope you find some... let me know if you don't.

Crystals sometimes beg to come home with me and I can be in two minds, as I don't feel a real connection with them.. i sun them, moonlight them, labyrinth them, as soon as they get home, and then they may sit quite a while, just getting an occasional visit and pat, like many of my lovely friends, and then something comes up and I just know that 'this is the perfect crystal for..." and it continues on its journey :) I love how that happens...

Oops... this has become a serious enabling thread! :D Yay!!!!! :) I'd be steering towards the crystals, too, or another flute!!! Good luck with that!!! :D I'm not a serious addict though... I proved that today when visiting a local car boot market with 2 of my daughters. I was browsing a crystal stall that happened to be amongst the rainforest plant stalls that i'd really gone for, and the woman had lots of crystals, but none of them shone out at me... they were nice enough, and other people will no doubt be attracted, but none beamed at me saying "Look how special and lovely and clear and beautiful I am", so I walked past... I was quite proud of myself! :D

oh they are lovely, suk. I really LOVE that rose quartz! that crystal (any rose quartz) just really does something for me. I just love them. I can always feel the love they emanate. :heart:

Glad you're hanging out in such lovely company, suk :D Both delightful.
yes, me too! :laugh:

yeah, same here. I'll be 56 soon and honestly, I was ALWAYS a person with her head in the clouds. Even as a baby, according to my family. I was always quiet as if my mind was elsewhere. I'm sure it was even then! :)

I hadn't ever heard of it till you spoke of it. I have to find some. I'll also have to do more research on it. Oh, I can't wait till I get back to AZ again. I do hope too, that we will soon get back to Tucson AZ so we can go back to the Nat'l Park there for more hiking. I found the most GORGEOUS crystal there and it too, called out to me to take it home. But, we were surrounded with many other people hiking and there were signs everywhere not to take anything out of the park. :( It broke my heart to leave it. I am kicking myself now too for not taking it.

this is so sweet, Linnie. :)

:laugh: Yes, it sure has!! And, Linnie, I'm proud of you too! That was pure strength!!! :laugh:

I'm so looking forward to our trip in March 2017 to AZ again. I'm saving up some monies for that trip. My husband last night was telling me to go ahead and spend the money (I have put aside) in Savannah Ga--that he wants me to enjoy myself. (I'm headed to GA tomorrow w/my sister in law). But, I've already decided that I am only taking a wee bit of it because I want to spend my money in AZ next spring! :laugh: he doesn't know that yet--but I'm already planning it....

he's in for a surprise! :D

Oh how I :love: rose quartz! It's so beautiful.
And what a captivating labradorite! A had one until last week when it decided it wanted to go home with my crystal loving grandson. :)

My oldest daughter gifted me this gorgeous aventurine heart for my birthday. :love::love: It's such a deep green I've really enjoyed spending time with it the last couple of days.

Wow I LOVE that adventurine heart! And the pretty setup there as well.

I finally added my crystals to my Flickr page so if you want to see my latest there, there are several but my two absolute faves - got yesterday in fact - are the wanna-be generator towers (maybe called receiver-generators?): one is clear quartz and one is rose quartz. Up till now I've had mostly smaller stones/crystals and some inherited medium to small-sized clusters. I got the white howlite heart yesterday too, and the silly light stand to light up crystals. Honestly most of these crystals are new...this obsession is very new. Tarot isn't but crystals are. Somebody stop me!!!

oh wow sweetcherise!! I love that green adventurine heart too! I am sure that is a great healing stone! I had to check too, as I thought it was a stone of luck, and yes, sure enough it is! It is also a great stone for prosperity. A beautiful gift from your sweet little girl. :)

Yes, I agree, a lovely set up there! :thumbsup:

And, WOW! to you too! what a lovely set up there. What is the item in pic 1 & 2 that is in the back on the right? I have one flat stone that is similar and forget what its called. At any rate it looks like a portal or "door" to the universe there, Ayram. Just seems very magical! I also love the swirly green crystal to the left. What is that one? That shape is beautiful!

And, as I scroll down....HOLY COW!!!! WHAT AN INCREDIBLE COLLECTION!!!! :thumbsup:

Yes, I can see it has become an obsession. :laugh: but what a lovely obsession it is too! Where ever did you find that case? Is it a jewelry case you are using for the crystals?

OMG! Further on, seeing your towers--absolutely LOVELY!!!

You have a truly wonderful collection there!!! :thumbsup:
