New stones

I went to the other location of Ancient Ways yesterday before work. My main objective was to try to find a birthday gift for Troy (didn't happen upon one there, but did find one later!). The secondary objective was to see if anything called to me. That did happen. Twice.



First, I found this beautiful jade heart. I was excited when I saw it because I had one just like it favorited on Starlene's site, but this one just really spoke to me. It has such a soothing, loving energy to it. It is going to be a pocket stone when I go to my classes, sit on my desk as I do homework, and be placed to the right of the rose quartz on my altar when not in use. It's in my pocket right now, actually. :)

Jade is a wonderful stone for dreaming. It assists with both daydreaming and sleep dreaming. In daydreaming jade helps one to reach and realize their potential and teaches one their purpose. In sleep dreaming, jade helps one to formulate answers to ones problems and teaches you how to apply the solutions during awake time.

Jade also assists with expressing ones emotions via dreaming when used at night or placed under your pillow.

Jade helps you to discover your desires and facilitates you to build those desires into physical reality.

Metaphysically speaking jade helps one to realize the limitations on oneself and achieve their objectives. Jade also helps you to become more aware and wise. It assists you to not dwell about your problems or others needs, but to bring the solutions forward.

Jade is associated with the heart chakra and is a protective stone that is said to bring the wearer harmony and keep them from danger. Jade is also known to attract good luck and friendship.

Metaphysically and spiritually jade helps to encourage you to be who you are. You are a spiritual being having a human experience put in the body you are in so you can learn and grow your spirit. Jade can open your awareness to that as you learn about yourself.
Personally I think jade is a good stone for whenever you are feeling a little lost or confused on your path. Jade will help you to find your way back again.

Astrologically jade is connected with the zodiac sun sign of Aries, Gemini, Taurus and Libra.

Not long after, I was browsing the gemstone jewelry, looking at the variety of tumbled bracelets there were. There were clear quartz, rose quartz, amethyst, jasper, carnelian...and then I saw a lone rhodonite bracelet.


I picked it up, and it practically hummed with the positive energy it has. After purchasing it, I wore it all day at work. While I really do enjoy my job, I felt that joy multiplied. I was less frustrated with people and situations than I normally would have been. Most of my co-workers commented on my more-cheerful-than-normal mood. Read this description of rhodonite, and you'll understand why. :)

Rhodonite is a stone of love, it will help one to either draw love into their lives or be more loving. Rhodonite is a perfect stone to help you feel more love and self love in your life, so its a wonderful companion for healers and people that feel lonely or need more love in their life. It is also beautiful for someone that is working on focusing their energies on more loving thoughts.

Rhodonite is used to promote calmness and help to disperse negativity, confusion, doubt or incoherency. It is a wonderful stone to help balance the yin-yang energies and attunes one with the spirituality of the Universe.

Rhodonite has been referred to as the "stone of love" it activates and energizes the heart chakra.

It is helpful in chaotic situations, providing ones greatest potential using grounding for the emotional and physical energies simultaneously. It dispels anxiety and promotes coherence.

Physically rhodonite has been used to help the joints, heart disorders, arthritis, strep throat inflammation and light sensitivity.

Astrologically rhodonite is associated with the astrological zodiac signs of Taurus

When I'm not wearing it, it is resting around Saraswati's neck. :)



Though there are still MANY pieces I would love to have from Starlene's sites, I'm very happy to have found these two items. Everything in its own time, you know.

Love and harmony all of your days.
