Just started it officially today: Here’s how it works — If I have something in my gemstone/crystal collection that you need, I mail it to you to try or to use for however long you need it. Next, maybe you lend me or another exchange member something they need. Since I can ship a single piece for less than a dollar, or many stones for only several dollars, it saves you money, or at least lets you try a type of stone before you invest. This can be especially helpful for folks who don’t have much to spend or who don’t live near a rock/crystal shop where you can touch-n-feel first. Small beads can be mailed taped/padded in an ordinary #10 envelope with only 2-3 stamps for postage (in US). Plus, its fun to make these connections across the distance, get to know each other, and support each others’ healing.

Hi Kannon, I just received the Rhyolite you sent. I left a comment on your blog. Thank you so very much. I look forward to working with this stone. IP: Logged |

Thank you, venus2tinkerbell. Let's hope this exchange gets noticed. The Larimar has been shipped and as soon as it arrives, I'll post it and make it available in the exchange.------------------ The Declinations Guy Rising Sign Descriptions | Expert rectification ♈ ♉ ♊ ♋ ♌ ♍ ♎ ♏ ♐ ♑ ♒ ♓ IP: Logged |

I see that Larimar is available. Can you please send me a sample Kannon (I'll also leave a comment on your post)? Thanks for posting the eBay store you purchased from. I'll place an order and soon I'll have some stones to contribute to the exchange. I also hope the exchange gets noticed I guess anyone could just buy what they need online; however I think the exchange is great because we can share information and inspire one another. I'll probably start sharing my experiences here soon. The Rhyolite is very different from the Kunzites and Kyanites. I didn't have the immediate reaction to the Rhyolite the way I did with the others. I was surprised at first because I was getting nothing. I wondered if I wasn't focused enough or if I was distracted by the fact that I had to go to work soon... But soon I became conscious of this stone working deep inside me ('places' I don't access regularly), a slow action. Like the Amethyst you don't want to separate from it. You feel your "authentic" self rising to the surface unencumbered by the emotional baggage that often blocks our freedom. At first I expected to see something the way I did in dreams with the Amethyst (and I did), but what is most beautiful about this stone (and I did read this somewhere) is how it empowers you to speak your truth- see it clearly and then tell it. In the few days I've had the Rhyolite stone I have been able to say (without thinking) things I have been trying to say for years to a very significant person in my life. They are truths that don't live in my head, making them things I Know, but haven't been able to explain- an enormous source of frustration. At one point in a conversation I was completely taken aback by what I, myself, was saying and by the positive and accepting reaction to what I was saying. I became aware that I could not be denied (I hope that doesn't sound arrogant. My purpose is personal strength and conviction). It was only when I kind wondered what was going on that I realized I was just rolling this stone between my fingers over and over during the conversation. This is the only stone I wear at all times right now. I'm wearing it on a silver chain around my neck. I can't wear things like hemp. They irritate my skin. Do you think silver is ok? I've had the first stones you sent for three weeks now, I think.. I plan to take them to the lake tomorrow and cleanse them in sea salt and the lake water. I don't know why I'm anxious about proper cleansing... Thank you!! ! ! ! IP: Logged |

I dropped two in the mail last night. The Rhyolite seems to be best activated by giving a question at the start of your meditation. It is powerful and deep acting, but not forceful. I've never gotten insights so clearly and easily as I do with it. Even just as a meditation stone it induces deep relaxation like few stones can. I agree that it does help bring the authentic self up to the surface. I'm glad you've had good experiences with it. Silver is fine if it works for you.

I knew. I didn't hear from you yesterday and I thought, 'I bet it's already on it's way'! I wish you weren't just the declinations guy. I wish you were the girl at the coffee shop, the mail lady, and anyone else that ever kept me waiting! I know we should be calm and patient, but it's so nice when someone just does something and promptly! Thank you! IP: Logged |

Ok. I will set aside sometime to actually focus on something specific. I think I might have tried that when I first got the Rhyolite, but I wasn't able to connect what I saw to my question or concern so I gave that method up. But I will try again. IP: Logged |

I know you wont be able to help me sort this out, but I'm sharing because it's interesting. My question is a family relationship question. The first time I focused on this relationship (when the Rhyolite first came) I saw faces (like spirit heads) looking out from a mountain. Then I saw liquid silver. The second time; just now, I focused more on myself in the relationship than the other person, and my love for someone else came flooding into my heart. I waited. I decided to focus on the family relationship again, but less on myself and more on that person. It's like there's a fog or a haze I can't see around. Then I recalled a dream I had about this person years ago (in fact I was in a religious dream interpretation group and tried to have that dream interpreted, and the interpreter who had been doing this for a long time told me he could not interpret my dream, and had been advised by his teacher to be cautious.. He then closed his group less than 24 hours after that). This isn't the first time I thought of the dream. I thought of it a couple days ago too. I was wearing the Rhyolite. Back to my morning meditation. I let go of the dream, and tried again to focus in on this person. I still can't see straight, but the things this person has said came through almost as if separate from themselves. I doubt that makes sense. I am now thinking maybe the faces on the mountain was a clear message. Maybe they were looking out past the fog? But the liquid silver? Idk.. I have a close relationship with silver. I buy bullion...I wear it. I just learned that Amethyst is stronger with silver...maybe that's it. Maybe if I place the Amethyst on a silver coin I can see clearer? I did try that yesterday, and I fell into such a deep sleep, but it had to be interrupted because I planned to go to the lake to cleanse my stones...Anyway just sharing. Not sure about any of it at all. IP: Logged |

It's interesting that the silver coin I placed the amethyst on has a buffalo on one side and the face of an American Native on the other, a face that looks a lot like the faces (spirit heads) looking out from the mountain..I can kind of see a connection between the faces, the mountain, and the liquid silver in my vision, and the face on the coin, the amethyst (a stone- similar to a mountain, symbolically at least), and the silver coin.. I found a lot of good info on silver. I like these two links. http://www.alizons-psychic-secrets.com/silver.html If you are craving a need for truth, honesty and a clearer understanding of your purpose in life then include more of the colour silver into your life. And this one http://www.color-meanings.com/silver-color-meaning-the-color-silver/ And since I love scripture I'll read this later http://tryingthespirits.com/study_notes/metals-09_silver_pt2.pdf

Interesting. Looks like you are on top of it.I would just add that an approach you might consider since it sounds like what you're getting so far is symbolic -- although it may have deep and rich personal meaning you will soon discover -- is to ask to see what is behind or underneath these symbols - for the deeper meaning to be brought into plain view. It might take some time, but that is okay. Deep and meaningful things are worth the time. ------------------ The Declinations Guy Rising Sign Descriptions | Expert rectification ♈ ♉ ♊ ♋ ♌ ♍ ♎ ♏ ♐ ♑ ♒ ♓ IP: Logged |

I don't think it had anything to do with the way you packed it. You secured it pretty well. Maybe it was the sorting machine like Randall suggested. It was one aggressive sorting machine I am so grateful to have gotten the single stone. posting for everyone. Larimar is said to enlighten and heal in a physical, emotional, mental and spiritual way. It stimulates the heart, throat, third eye and crown chakras facilitating inner wisdom and outer manifestation. It represents peace and clarity, radiating healing and love energy. http://www.larimarket.com/metaphysical-properties/ http://www.crystalvaults.com/crystal-encyclopedia/larimar IP: Logged |

Hadn't seen the post above that asked me if I using healing stones.In the past 5 years, I've gathered a very very small collection-- might have to invest in a picture gem book to remind what these are now! LOL Been a rock hound and sensitive to stone energies since childhood. Spent a long time sitting and contemplating life on a giant granite boulder, imbedded with flecks of tourmaline muscovite and garnets. Have loved crystals ever since a child, when I slobbered on my mother's absolutely stunning rosary beads. The sunlit stained-glass windows in that church made them sparkle even more Beautifully! Have a drop-shaped one right now that hangs from a small lamp by this computer. In one apartment I had, there was a very large sunny picture-window. Had strung crystals across it, splashing rainbows all around the room. My favorite is Rose Quartz and Black Tourmaline (together).
Have a small Moonstone that I wear with a delicate shiny silver chain (which was a big splurge for my last birthday). Sometimes I'll swap the stone out of its cage and replace with Blue Agate. Some day I want to get some Malachite. After watching this vid, thinking also about getting a piece of Citrine. This couple is FABULOUS... Some might learn a LOT from this conversation.
