I wonder if dollar stores in Tibet sell human femurs for trumpets next to their black river rocks?! ha! I've spent many happy hours digging through bins and bags of stones at such places. A stone is a bone from the earth, after all, whether crystal or homogenized rock. And think about what happens when you tap a rock. The vibration goes right through it. All this vibrating we've been doing here as humans--and other species who thought they were the best thing since sliced bread--was felt and stored within the earth. Incredible!
Rocks are as full of surprises as crystals and minerals. A palm-sized red desert stone that came back from a walk with me loves to soak up discordant energy like a sponge. Everybody who has held it loves it! I always laugh. It wanted to lie next to my pup when he wasn't feeling good a few months ago and Sully usually lay with his head near or touching the stone. I've slept with the stone many a night, letting it absorb my discomfort.
I talked with my stones as I explored healing and asked that they clear and remove energy--balancing it in place or sending it where it belongs--rather than aborbing it. For the most part that's how we work. However, when I asked the red stone it said that's what it likes to do! It's strong and stable, so absorbing just about any discordant energy is a fun game for it. Different strokes for different folks.
Just this evening I picked up a smooth black stone that also came back from a walk. It feels so smooth and soothing, yet one side has plenty of indentations. I was looking at it and noticed two points of silver shining in one side! Looks like two eyes. ha! The only cost with these was paying attention.
