Meaning of Lost Crystals

Aventurine Ganesh Necklace

Question:  I wanted to ask you, do you think it means anything when you lose a crystal?  I've read that some people think it means you don't need that crystal anymore at that time...but i'm also pretty disorganized so i thought that could be it too :)  My rhodochrosite and aventurine Ganesh are misplaced/lost.

Answer:  There are different interpretations on what it means when you lose a crystal so you will have to choose the one that fits for you! Yes, many people say it is that you no longer need that crystals energies, but it will be found when you need it again. Others say that the crystal was overloaded and needs a rest from absorbing too much of the particular energy you are trying to heal. It is the Same idea of why crystals break when you don't clean them regularly. In this case you may want to have a bigger size in the stone or backups!

Beading Wire Secures Bracelets

Question: Hi, I really loved looking through your website.  You make a lot of beautiful things.

Could you tell me what the stones are strung on for the below bracelet?   Is it flexible?  How pink are the stones?  Quartz Bracelet 11 Clasp Rose Tourmaline Pink Crystal Healing Stone 7.8"

Thanks so much.

Answer: Hi, thank you for your email and interest in I dig Crystals bracelets. Yes, this bracelet is flexible. All of the clasp bracelets are strung on beading wire:
Top-rated Accu-Flex professional-quality beading wire is strong, flexible, kink-resistant and easy to knot and crimp. Accu-Flex beading wire utilizes an advanced wire-bundling technology, resulting in increased strength and durability, while still maintaining flexibility for a nice drape.

The Rose Quartz is a little shade bolder than pale pink. These are natural stones, not dyed.

Obsidian Ball for Gazing

Obsidian Silver Sheen Ball

Question: Hello, I see that the biggest obsidian ball (listed above) that you have is the 3.3" silver sheen third eye ball. I have no clue how big a 3.3" would be. Do you have any pictures with this ball in a hand or next to another item, so that I can compare the actual size?

I was thinking I would need a 5" to 6". I am wanting to find a ball for a beginner and want a big enough view screen. What advice do you have about buying a 3.3" -- do you think that would be too small or eye-straining?

Thanks.

 

Answer: Thank you for emailing us about the obsidian ball.  Obsidian is one of the top recommended stones for gazing.  Traditionally, larger sized spheres are used for most effective gazing, as they give off more energy and there is more surface room to work with.  However, we have had many scrying classes in the past, and some people have also worked with smaller sized spheres.

We actually do have another obsidian sphere that is 4.5" and is not yet listed on the website.  I will send you additional photos later in the day, and hope that will help with the decision.

Please email me if you have any other questions.  Thank you,

Lisa Satin of Satin Crystals

The lid is removable so that you may store your precious items within, or use the statue as a sphere holder. A wonderful gift to yourself or a loved one, full of universal energy.

Dragons are also messengers of balance, and magic - encouraging us to tap into our psychic nature and see the world through the eyes of mystery and wonder.

Blue stones for Communication

Blue Stones for the Throat Chakra

Question: Hello. My son has been having issues controlling his anger and focusing in school.

He recently tried to run away saying he wanted to get away from everyone because nobody listens to him and nobody cares about him, all of which is not true! 

We care about him and love him very much!!! What would you suggest for this situation, spiritual bath? Candles? Crystals?

We are getting him a counselor for his misbehavior but they only suggest drugs and we are only interested in natural remedies. Please help with any info you can THANKS in advance.  

Answer: Thank you for writing to us.   Childhood can be a rough time, and the feelings he has are justified and valid in his own mind.

It sounds like there are communication issues.   Crystals for the throat chakra can benefit everyone involved.  Throat chakra crystals are light blue, such as kyanite, angelite, blue agate, hemimorphite.   These stones can help with peaceful understanding and expression.   Many people like to wear crystal necklaces (or cords with pendants) when working on the throat chakra because the stone falls right over the chakra.

For studying and focus, fluorite is a clear contender.  It has specific energies to help on concentration and focus, for school or work.  Smaller stones can be carried around or a larger piece can be placed near his desk.

Your son may even be open to crystals and "rocks", as most children are.  He may like to select his own, or be interested in learning more from you.  If not, you can discretely place them around the house.

Cleansing energy with candles, sage, and other tools will help clear out the negative energy.  We have smudge sticks available if you need.  Light the bundle and go to each corner of the house, releasing the negative energy and instilling positive intentions.

Thank you again and please email us if you need more assistance.

Sincerely,

Lisa Satin

Sea Urchins Calcite Spine

The precise structure of sea urchins' strong spines has been unraveled - and the find may contribute to stronger concrete in the future.

The tough spines are known to be made of calcium carbonate, which has a number of naturally occurring forms, some more brittle than others.

X-ray studies now show they are built from "bricks" of the crystal Calcite, with a non-crystalline "mortar".
