Foreward

I'm always fascinated by those of us that are 'stone obsessed'. It seems to be a calling, and it's always so much fun to run into another person who understands!

Stone Talking is something that everyone can do to some degree, it's just a matter of the level of the gift, just like someone who plays piano. Someone very gifted can just sit and play concertos; then there are those of us who dream of playing, and struggle to get through a simple piece and lessons.

Yes, I guess I do consider this an art. I have studied and practiced it since I was 5 years old that I remember. I collected stones and interacted with them, then put them in my little red wagon (seriously, a little red wagon!) and went around the neighborhood selling them to people telling them what the rocks had to say, and how they could be their friends. I actually sold some, maybe just because they thought it was cute. I've also had psychic experiences and done psychic work since I was small, and done this professionally for almost 15 years now.

My children (three daughters) have each received their own abilities, my youngest two with their strongest abilities. My second daughter has my abilities of "knowing" things, intuitive skills, and seeing spirits and guides.

My youngest daughter has the enhanced ability of stone talking and grouping stones for healing, along with communicating with those who have passed over.

Much of what I do and how it happens and is done is discussed in the book "famous wisconsin mystics", I'm a chapter that starts on page 142.

My daughter and I are in the middle of our Stone Talkers book at this time as well.

SO, at this point, let's talk about what you can do to practice more and get to test your abilities with your own stones.

What is a stone Talker?

Reference to horoscope analogy

Most people who purchase stones from me want to know what the stone means, and I tell them the meaning according to Melody’s book, the basic reference known by most people. This has always bothered me; it reminds me of a joke I once heard: “Today

Someone who is able to comunicate with stones. I dont mean just sitting down and talking to a bolder in your front yard, I mean knowing what its healing purposes are, meditation, and sometimes knowing where its been (*mom* This is starting to develop with me as well)

Connection to qualities of the earth

Ability to meditate somewhat and open up to the possibilities

Trust your instincts

Practice with your stones and others to test your instincts

What does it take to be a stone talker?

Wanting to be the person who interacts with stones

A passion for the stones and the messages

A desire to learn more about the ongoing new discoveries of stones

Learning about the regions and cultures of the areas the stones are found in

Anyone could be a stone talker, all you need do is listen. Meditation plays a big part in Stone talking. you have to be able to quiet yourself enough and listen to what it has to say. If you plan on doing it with other people, you need to be able to open yourself up to them as well. The stone will tell you what needs to be done.

How can you learn to work with others?

Stone parties

When is it apppropriate to talk to others about this?

How to connect with others

Making connections in the community

Trade shows

Magazines

As anything goes, sometimes it is impolight to bring it up. Othertimes, if someone is having troubles and you think it could help, if you are asked about it, or if you think the person you are talking to is open to things of this nature.

When are you done learning?

Levels of learning

Deciding what you want to know

Comfort levels

Taking breaks

You are never done, knowledge is the key to everything. By continuously learning you build up your abilities and can even pick up a few you didnt know you had.

Why become a stone talker?

Intuitive feelings about what to know

Dealing with skeptics

Whether or not to express your passsion

It helps in day to day situations, and even some really hard situations. from help sleeping to writters block.

Why help others with their stones?

How much to share with others

How to expand your group

What and how to share with others

The best way to share with others without being overbearing

Why do so many people disbelieve?

Why do people disbelieve in stones powers?

Explaining the properties to others

When to let it go.

How to give a short overview of what different properties the stones can help with.

Because I think people have a hard time believing that a stone has that much to say. It is hard to believe that an inanimate object can have such a profound effect on others. In short, People believe what they can see.

Where is a good place to practice?

The standard answer is outdoors

In home study groups

Library room groups

Coffee houses

Anywhere that can accommodate a group with tables

Barnes and Noble would be great

Quiet solitary places are preferd, but only at first. as your connections grow, you can do it anywhere.

My personal common gemstone list and my common feelings from these stones

Table and infromation

Malachite, Obsidian (rainbow), Appetite, herkimer, Jade, Hemitite, red tiger iron, garnet, god I could go on forever, I like them all!

they all have thier own energy level, and personality. Even though malachite maybe said to have a certain personality, it can be compleatly different. Every stone has its own, like a finger print. but I guess the most common feeling I get from these are comfort.

Crystal Tune-up:

Charging Your Stones

Charging your crystals is in some ways the opposite of clearing them. When you clear a crystal you are removing any unwanted vibrations.

For example, when you first get a crystal you may want to clear it of any energy it picked up on its way to you. If you've been doing a lot of emotional healing and releasing with your crystals you'll also want to clear them because crystals may absorb the energy you've released.

Crystals should be periodically cleared even if you haven't been using them for meditation or healing work, if only because they do get dusty. (This is sometimes called cleaning).

See the article on clearing crystals at for more information on this.

When you charge crystals you're basically giving them the chance to refresh their ability to focus and expand their energy. There are several reasons to do this.

Sometimes after you've cleared a crystal its energy may seem a little dull or flat.

A crystal which hasn't been worked with for a while may also feel this way.

f you notice that a crystal has become cloudy you may want to both clear and activate it.

If you want to program a crystal for a special purpose, before you program it you may want to activate its energy for that purpose.

Charging Methods

Place crystals in the reflected light of Austrian crystals, i.e., where the rainbows from such crystals fall. (Note: Austrian crystals are leaded glass, hence human-made crystals). The crystals can remain in place for as long as the Austrian crystals are reflecting sunlight.

Place crystals on a quartz cluster. Quartz amplifies the energy of any crystal with which it is in contact.

Crystals can also be activated with sound.

Put a crystal near a single-note chime and strike the chime gently several times. This has a harmonizing effect on the crystal.

If you like to chant and make it a regular practice do so in the presence of your crystals, especially if you want to use them as part of your meditational practice.

Your thoughts can have an activating or de-activating effect on crystals. If your thoughts have been gloomy and you've also been noticing that your crystals have gotten cloudy or dull, you'll realize that they've been absorbing your negativity. In this case do not delay in clearing them thoroughly.

To activate crystals with your thoughts you could hold them in your hands and visualize them bathed in light and love. You can also tell them (either silently or aloud) how much you appreciate them. They may not understand the words (and, then again, they may), but your intention will be clearly transmitted.

Reiki Charging

If you are a Reiki I practitioner you can charge your crystals with Reiki energy by holding them in your hands and activating this energy within you in whatever ways your Reiki Master may have taught you how to do this. One method is to say "Reiki on." Another is to give yourself or someone else a Reiki treatment before charging your crystals.

If you are a Reiki II practitioner you can draw the symbols over your crystals.

For simple charging you can draw the energy symbol over a crystal.

When I want to use a crystal to help clear up some mental and/or emotional confusion I hold it in one hand and draw the mental/emotional balance symbol over it.

When I plan to program a crystal for a goal I draw the distant healing symbol over it, and sometimes the others afterwards.

I have experienced that the master attunement symbol on the other symbols to that of a quartz crystal on other crystals. Thus, you can activate the symbols (and your crystals) with this symbol if you're a Reiki Master.

Special-Purpose Activation

You may want to charge the land you live on with crystalline energy by burying crystals in the earth. (Be sure you note or write down where you buried them. A map would be a good idea.)

Some people like to program crystals, then bury them in their gardens to help in an abundant crop. If you'd like to charge your crystals in preparation for this you can bury them in dried flowers. (If you are using potpourri make sure that it isn't artificially scented.)

At any time of year (providing the ground isn't frozen) you can bury one near a tree. This could either be a tree which is your favorite, or one associated with a particular positive value.

Oaks symbolize strength, junipers purification, and pine trees in a number of cultures are associated with healing.

You can also get particular results when you place a crystal in sunlight. This is one of the most powerful ways to charge your crystal with active energy, i.e., energy which will help you to manifest what you want.

This is useful if you want to create an increase in some area of your life, such as increased vitality, income, love. Put the crystal out in the sun, then program it for your intention.

There are particular times in the solar cycle which have special energies. The fall equinox is associated with harvest, and you might want to charge a crystal at this time for the fulfillment of your dreams. The spring equinox relates to growth.

In general, moonlight has two phases, waxing and waning, and two other times of significance: the full moon and the dark of the moon. The energy of the waxing moon relates to new beginnings. The full moon corresponds to abundance in all areas of life. The waning moon connects to decrease (decrease of an illness, of debt, of negativity); while a crystal charged in the dark of the moon would be helpful for meditation or any other kind of inner work.

Crystals and Pyramids

Pyramids generate negative ions. In addition, they are believed to have a generally balancing effect on the electromagnetic field of the body. This effect is enhanced by the particular materials used, such as pure 24K gold and copper.

Pyramids are often used to charge crystals. This is a popular use for pyramids. It is generally believed that quartz crystals are most effective for this use, as they may hold the charge for several weeks. These crystals can then be used for healing purposes or for programming. Pyramid charging, however, is good for any crystal which seems to need it.

Exercises

Message Stones: Do a set of 5 or 6 message stones. Sitting at a table with your rocks and a pad of paper, think of 5 or 6 people who would understand your practicing, and assign one stone to each person. Do this just intuitively, don't stress about it. Then put a piece of paper with each stone. Write the person's name on the paper that goes with the stone.

Go to the first stone, hold it for a few seconds while thinking of this person, and ask what message the stone has for that person. Open your mind, don't force it. Write down what you get, no matter how strange or silly it sounds to you-- you are the messenger, don't try to figure it out. It's always the greatest thing to tell someone a strange message and have their face turn white as it means something so specific to them!! At some point in the next few days contact that person and give them the message, and explain why you are sending it to them. Ask them for their honest feedback, if it means something to them or not. REMEMBER THIS-- when I do readings, about 20% of the time my messages I give mean nothing to my client, and days/weeks/months later I find out that they say it hit them later what the message meant.

Have a small bowl of stones near your front door, and each morning close your eyes and pick one, and ask what your message for the day is; again with the open mind and the first message that comes to you, no matter how strange; keep your mind open to the message for the day.

Keep a few stones with you, and if there is someone who is comfortable with it, ask them to hold a stone for a minute, and them take it back from them. See what the stone has to say. Feel the emotion of the stone. is it happy? sad? scared? does it have a message or is it just happy being back with you? would it rather be back with that other person? WARNING: I lose many stones this way, as I have rocks that would rather be with that other person, and I have to let them go.

Often humans forget (or never learn) that there are others on this planet who have wisdom to share. Although this doesn't specifically concern spirit guides I believe that it is important and should be addressed. Many of us who are pet owners know that animals can make their wishes known. People who work with plant have attuned themselves to notice this about their plants. All natural things communicate and can be talked with. However very few people actually try to talk to anything other than fellow humans. I don't mean baby-talking either, I mean real and honest communication.

To speak with an animal, plant, stone or other object, relax and get in tune with it. Imagine what you are trying to communicate in your mind in all its beautiful detail. Know it. Feel its differences from you. If it is not a mammal try to understand its life, that of a plant drinking in the sun or a stone existing much longer and slower, slowly being worn down by the elements. Then try to sense the being that you wish to communicate with. Allow any image that comes into your mind. A rock spirit won't necessarily look like a chunk of quartz. It might just as easily take on the form of a woman in crystalline gowns. Just let an image come to you. If you manage to connect, take some time to commune with it. Ask it for a message. Get to know it. Oh and remember to introduce yourself. Manners are manners no matter who or what you are talking to. Remember to say thank you and good bye.

I have found that leaning up against a tree or looking at a river is often enough for me to find that connection. I have also noticed that rocks and trees tend to respond slower than animals since their concept of time is so different. In addition I have discovered that when talking to trees of rocks I tend to slow down to meet them at a level closer to theirs. This is very calming, but hard exercise right afterwards is not suggested. Think about trying to jump from the concept of millennia to the concept of minutes while hiking up a steep trail and you should be able to figure out why!

|It's hard to find anyone who doesn't appreciate the beauty of gemstones and crystals. It's truly amazing the |

|colors that nature has created. But these beautiful stones do more than just please the eye--they have powers |

|to calm, energize, speed healing, attract love...the list goes on. Gemstones have a vibrational frequency that |

|affects different parts of the body, as well as different needs. Before you laugh, remember, quartz is used in |

|clocks, computers, and telecommunications. So open your mind and allow stones and crystals to enhance your |

|life. |

|After choosing the right color (see the list at the end of this page), you need to do a few things to the stone|

|to prepare it for use. First, rid yourself of tension; gemstone powers work easier when you are in a relaxed |

|state physically, mentally and emotionally. Now, the stone needs to be "cleared." You can do this several ways,|

|but I like to submerge it in salt water, nature's purifier. Or you can light some incense (like sandalwood or |

|frankincense) and pass the stone several times through the smoke. Next, "charge" up the gemstone with your |

|special request. Hold it in your dominant hand (if right handed, use right hand; left-handed, use left hand), |

|and concentrate on your need. Visualize your request going down your arm and into the stone. Now, your stone is|

|ready to work for you. You can wear it (in a ring or necklace), carry it with you (don't let others touch |

|it...they may scramble the energy), put it under your pillow at night. You could also lie down and place the |

|stone on your body, but it's good to know exactly where to place it (Read up on chakras). For love you would |

|put it near your heart. For communication, near your throat. You can increase the focus of gemstone energy by |

|lighting a candle of the same color. |

Love Attraction: Pink stones like Rose Quartz and Rhodochrosite

Mental Concentration: Yellow stones like Citrine or Gold Topaz

Stamina/Sex: Red stones like Garnet or Ruby

Better Communication: Blue stones like Turquoise or Blue Topaz

Dreams/Meditation: Purple stones like Amethyst or Fluorite

Calming/Peace: Blue stones like Aquamarine or Blue Topaz

Money Attraction: Green stones like Malachite or Aventurine

Protection: Black stones like Black Tourmaline or Onyx

Psychic Powers: Indigo stones like Azurite or Lapis Lazuli

Courage: Red stones like Garnet or Ruby

Healing: Clear Quartz Crystal or Hematite

Grounding: Brown or Black stones like Tiger Eye or Onyx

|These are just a few examples of the properties of gemstones. There are hundreds of other stones, metals, and |

|crystals that can be used for your special purposes. If you don't have a certain colored gemstone, charge up a |

|clear quartz crystal to radiate that energy. It can always be substituted for any color. (You can order clear |

|quartz crystals from Astrola's Metaphysical Shop). You can get raw gemstones in metaphysical stores, flea |

|markets, rock shops. |

| |Kyanite: |

| |A Stone for Balance |

Kyanite is said to be very usefull in enhancing one's creativity, broadening one's perspective, and in reaching a better understanding with others. Kyanite is also said to bring calm and tranquility, and to facilitate meditation.

Kyanite is said to help clear sinus congestion, and to help in the treatment of muscular disorders

Kyanite isn't mentioned in more than two of the crystal books in my large collection. One of these books is a geological guide to crystals, gems, and minerals; the other wasn't published until long after I first acquired a piece of kyanite. The lack of information has allowed me to explore kyanite without preconceived notions, and I've enjoyed making discoveries about this remarkable stone.

Its appearance is beautiful and unusual. It naturally forms in very flat blades made up of very thin mica-like layers. It predominantly occurs in a medium blue color with white streaks, although it can be green, yellow, and other colors, and it's often translucent. and always shiny.

According to the chakra system of colors kyanite should be placed either on the throat area or on the third eye (between and slightly above the other two), and I've found the third eye position especially valuable.

Overall, I find its energy to be very calming mentally. I've discovered that when I'm caught up in one of my worry loops placing kyanite on my forehead (whether or not I'm meditating) helps me to move beyond the loop. It reminds me that everything which happens is for a purpose, and that I am ultimately in charge. In the course of these gentle reminders it often brings to surface beliefs which I have accepted as fact.

The comments in the one book I have which talks about kyanite (Love Is In The Earth, by Melody, now out of print), states that this stone never needs to be cleaned or cleared, i.e., it doesn't retain negative vibrations.

She also remarks that it's helpful in chakra balance, in dispelling anger and frustration, (thus encouraging one to persevere in difficult tasks), and - confirming my own experiences - that it helps to facilitate mental clarity and dissolves confusions arising from emotional, intellectual, and spiritual issues.

If you have difficulty in meditating kyanite is one of the best stones to use. Its ability to quiet the mind is virtually unequaled.

Crystal Points

[pic]

     These are singly terminated Quartz Crystal points ranging in size from ½" to several inches in length; some are as large as 9 or 10 inches. They are the terminated points of massive clusters that grow underground, and are usually broken off during the mining process. Crystal points have many applications. They can be used to enhance meditations, direct energy to help clear chakras*, for healing, to form Crystal Water*, and can also be used in gridworks*. As is the case in working with all Quartz Crystals in a specific way, your focus and intent are most important.

Double Terminated Crystal Points

     Double Terminated Quartz Crystals are very special, and extremely powerful - due to the fact they present an ability to transmit and absorb energy in both directions through each of its two terminations. These Quartz Crystal could be considered "perfect", in that they are complete unto themselves by being terminated at both ends. When placed over chakras* in a healing session they will help to harmonize and integrate the energy within each chakra. They're excellent to utilize in body layouts to bridge energies, or rebalance constricted energy, that may be inhibiting a healthy flow of energy that would denote wellness. The Double terminated Crystal Point seems to create a "contained" vortex that will filter out the dynamics that create imbalance; thus allowing a natural balance or renewal of health to be established.

Quartz Crystal Clusters

     Clusters are a group of Quartz Crystal Points living together in a common matrix that they have grown/formed upon. They seem to exude an energetic feeling of harmony, peace and cooperation. They can charge and cleanse each other due to the sharing of the same matrix, as well as amplifying each other by bathing one another in their energy. Clusters are said to emanate light, energy, and love to the entire area in which they are placed. It is said, "they represent the evolved community, each member being individually perfect and unique, yet sharing a common ground - a common truth with all others. As gifts, they are wonderful to give to anyone - especially for those environments and people that are in need of the spirit of cooperation and harmony.

Record Keeper Quartz Crystals

     Record Keepers, are believed to hold information and/or records of knowledge from many ancient culture that are long gone from our collective memory. It is believed that some of the information may date back to the "seeding" of this planet by our fellow celestial relatives, and/or possibly from the Atlanteans and Lemurians. The programming that they may hold, could perhaps assist the inhabitants of our present day earth to move more quickly towards the enlightenment that we seem to be in so desperate need of. This data may include the planets' "pre-history", technology not yet developed, etc.

According to what is known about these unusual specimens, only those of purified and developed spirituality can access what is contained within them. This was done by design, so that lesser individuals cannot misuse the knowledge contained within. These Quartz Crystals can be identified by a small perfect triangle (pyramid shape) etched into one of the facets of the termination.

Generators

     Generators are considered "power pieces" and should be used with the utmost care and respect. When a generator is "set-up" properly, its potential is unleashed to open an energetic beam of light than expands exponentially to the etheric planes. This would enable a group of like-minded individuals with a positive, life-enhancing purpose, to work with an intensity of universal life/light energy that would assist in magnifying their intent many times over. Positive altruistic focuses are the only thought/intent that should be utilized in conjunction with this type of Crystal. Misuse of such a powerful tool can easily result in devastating karmic repercussions. It is not something to be used with selfishness or egocentricity. There are smaller generator types that can be used for personal growth and development in personal meditations.

Tabular Quartz Crystal Points

     Tabular Quartz Crystals are similar to Double Terminated Quartz Points, in that they can be powerful in the correct setting. They are also, like the Double Terminated, many times found fully grown (formed) in soft clay areas in the earth that allow them to terminate at both ends. Tabulars in shape and appearance are usually flat, with the two opposite sides being wider than the rest. The Tabular's special energetic characteristics lie in transmitting energy from one end to the other while equalizing and uniting the two energies through its common body. They are often used in the practice of telepathic communications, such as when one person projects a thought form into the Tabular, to later be retrieved by another person who will work with the crystal. They are also known to assist in accessing what is termed our "higher self."

Quartz Crystal Spheres

     These special tools are known to potent due to the fact that the crystalline energy that emanates from them, does so in a 360 degree pattern. Therefore it advised that only an individual who has arrived at having a very disciplined and focused mind work with them. If one is unprepared to handle the energy by being able to harness it with their consciousness, then they might find some somewhat unsettling experiences by interacting with a sphere. They are also known to be used in the practice of "scrying", otherwise called "crystal gazing." This is using a sphere to see into other dimensions and parallel realities that may exist, as well as seeking a look into potentialities yet to manifest in this world.

Herkimer Diamond Quartz Crystal

     Herkimer Diamonds are a special breed of Quartz Crystal found in Herkimer NY. They own their name to the fact that they resemble diamonds in their outward appearance, especially when found in "pockets" where they are in small size and quite numerous. They are often double terminated, and many times are triple or quadrupled terminated with other growing off the sides. Herkimer's seem to possess a subtle high frequency, and are slightly harder than other types of Quartz. Herkimer's have been known to greatly enhance dream state activity, and the recall of what took place in the dream state. For that reason, many people sleep with Herkimer's, as it helps to connect their conscious state with the "dream state."
