Stones, Rocks, Gems, Crystals

I have always had a fascination and attraction to stones, rocks, gems and crystals. To me they link the present to the past and the present to the future. I wonder what secrets they hold. This is a swap for those who have always been drawn to stones, rocks, gems and crystals. It came to me when I was walking my dogs in the desert earlier this week and we came across a quartz vein.

Stones, rocks, gems and crystals are things of light & beauty. Since ancient times they have offered us a wealth of ways to heal our spirit and enhance our lives, physically, mentally and emotionally.

You will have two (2) swap partners for this swap in which you will send at least 1 stone, rock, gem or crystal (Regional: USA and Canada only due to postage constraints)

So you will send at least (1) rock, gem or crystal along with an explanation of its properties (identification & care, magic, healing functions and practical ideas) to each of (2) partners.

Please make sure you read your partners' profiles to find a choice that will call to them in some way.

With their fascinating forms and enchanting colors, nothing else on Earth is like them. A gemstone is the naturally occurring crystalline form of a mineral which is desirable for its beauty, valuable in its rarity, and is durable enough to be enjoyed for generations. Many crystals are as old as our planet. Some people think of them as Record Keepers of the planet.

All crystal and gemstones are living organisms. Crystals have life energy of their own. They are living in some manner of the word as they slowly grow in clusters. They are part of the Mineral Kingdom. Crystals vibrate to their own frequency. The frequency they send out will determine which crystal you will chose at a certain point in your life. You chose different crystals as your needs in life change. When choosing a crystal, pause and ask for the wisdom to choose the crystal that would be right for you or the person you are giving it to.

THE ICKY RULES: Rating of 4.5 or better, with NO no sends in the past six months. Go ahead and message me if you’ve been rated unfairly at any point or have a good reason for your lower rating or the no sends, and we’ll talk. I’m certainly open to listening - as I understand LIFE HAPPENS!

Newbies allowed, but with filled out profiles please by the time you are signing up.

Communication is key. If you’re going to be late with the swap, let your partner know. If your partner tells you he/she is going to be late, and keeps up the communication, give him/her a break. Sometimes things come up that just can’t be helped.

I reserve the right to ban anyone that I think might be a problem. This means people that I've noticed have a history of rating unfairly, nastiness, etc. as swap-bot is supposed to be a positive experience for us all.
