New Crystals - Rhodochrosite

[Daimayo]

Hi... that stone is called "The Inca's rose" too, and is common in Peru and north of Chile... We have a lot of that stone, and is very popular in our jewlry (joyería... I'm not sure how to write it in english ), how the Lapislazuli stone (you find it only in Chile and Afganistan ) . I like it a lot, some people says that is a very good stone for heart problems, the stone is rich in copper.

Well, congratulations for your new stone

I have one, very small, rhodocrosite. I keep it by my bedside and sometimes take it with me in my bag. I had never really worked with it consciously until the other day, when I had something of a weeping fit, and was feeling rather - vulnerable. I took it with me to work, and held it all the while I was going there - a journey of 40 minutes in the morning traffic (I wasn't driving). I could feel the soothing, gentle waves emanating from that small stone, through my hand, up my arm, into my whole body. I held it to my heart for a while, and by the time I reached work, I was calm, cheerful and centred.

Amazing.

In Denver...

I don't have much knowledge of crystals. I'm determined to learn more. I saw some Rhodocrosite in the Denver Museum of Nature & Science. They had a lot of gems and crystals, but this one really caught my attention. They have a very large peice of it, a 6x6x3 piece, if not larger.

I was hoping to find a peice in the gift shop, but they didn't have it there. I should have known it wouldn't be that easy. Now, I need to search out one for myself.
