CRYSTALS: Tumbled

QUESTION: Hi I recently bought a Carnelian stone and i've heard a lot about it's great healing properties and I was just wondering how one uses a tumble stone. For now I keep it in a black satin pouch which sits in my bag but that means little contact with the actual stone. I'd love to find out more about it, thanks.

ANSWER: Hi, thanks so much for your email. Tumbled stones are small and smooth and thus very versatile in the healing realm. Here are a few suggestions on what you can do with your Carnelian tumbles. If you want me to expand on any point, just ask!

1. Making Gem Elixirs

2. Using in Crystal Healing Layouts

3. Carrying in a pouch/pocket for good energy

4. Setting in Jewelry

5. Use as Massage Stones

6. Placing in the tub

7. Making Chakra Platees

8. Gridding your house

9. Placing in a big bowl to relieve stress

10. Using as worry stones

CRYSTALS: Turquoise Nuggets

QUESTION: I'M JUST CURIOUS... WHY IS THE 'TURQUOISE' STONE SO SMALL AND ROUGH.... IT ISN'T POLISHED LIKE THE OTHERS..... ALSO DO ALL THE STONES NEED RECHARGING BEFORE THEY ARE PROGRAMED ?

ANSWER: Hi, Turqoise comes in small raw nuggets so when they are tumbled, they put some stabilizing chemicals like resin or glue to hold it together, so the Natural form is better in this case for chakra work. Yes, none of these stones have been charged yet, so please do clean, charge and program them before use!

Sheila :)
