I've recently become interested in crystals, less for their therapeutic qualities which the cynic in me finds dubious and more for their beauty. That said I'm intrigued by the connections between the physical properties of a crystal and its effects on the body, basically the relationship between the earth-fire of the earth and the earth of the body. So far I've got these crystals...
A few quartz crystals, one largish point and a smaller stone
Polished & Tumbled Tiger's Eye
Polished and Tumbled Jade
Various Amber stones, some rough, some polished
Large rough chunk of Citrine
Medium rough chunk of Amethyst
Rose Quartz triangulated pyramid (I think there's a specific name for these)
Polished and Tumbled Rhodonite
Polished and Tumbled Lapis
Tumbled Emerald
I was thinking of adding moonstone, carnelian and I'd like to gather a few more. Any suggestions for a novice would be much appreciated. Right now I've got them on my altar in various spots but I don't connect with them beyond their visual aesthetic and the feel they inspire in me based on the shape, striations, color etc.
