How the crystals found me
Crystals are batteries for the soul. They calm, soothe, protect, rejuvenate. Since ancient times they have been used for healing, communication, and storing information.
My great crystal love affair began 10 years ago. My daughter was having trouble getting to sleep at night and a friend suggested I buy her an amethyst. I bought one for myself while I was at it. Sure enough, my daughter started sleeping better and I felt profoundly and inexplicably attached to my own crystal. I felt like I’d found a piece of me that I didn’t know was missing. I put it in my pillowcase. You probably know the rest: one crystal quickly led to another and soon there were crystals in my bag, my bra, my bed.
Crystals are sentient, but not in the same way that we are. They exist on many dimensions whereas we don’t. Unlike us, their structure is stable and they are able to share that stability with us (a phenomenon that is referred to as resonance or entrainment).
When you work with crystals, they hook up with your higher self and bring back information. That’s how, when you sit with a crystal, you suddenly know something you didn’t know before. Or you feel a profound sense of peace. You might feel it pinch or soothe somewhere in your body. Some crystals can be programmed to do a particular job. You can ask certain stones to see you through a difficult time. They will hold space for you or protect you.
It’s my privilege to be ‘guardian’ or ‘librarian’ to a truly remarkable bunch of crystals. Nothing is here by chance. I hand-pick everything personally, and every piece has earned its place in my collection.
Some crystals have found me in the most extraordinary ways. This is how it usually works. I go to my wholesaler with a shopping list, which I end up not looking at. Once I’m in among all the crystals, my vibration changes. And that’s when the fun starts.
So it will be the freestanding Uruguayan amethyst sitting by the door, which flashes and nearly blinds me as I’m walking out because I ignored it earlier. I went back to buy it and it found its owner the next day – I was supposed to buy it for that client and the crystal made sure I did.
Or the smoky quartz flame that actually wobbled, visibly and not altogether silently, on the shelf (the shelf wasn’t wobbly, it was just that crystal) until it caught my attention.
Or the group of polished freeform that had just ‘coincidentally’ been unearthed in the stockroom when I showed up one day. Stunning, rare crystals. They had had been there for years yet had somehow completely escaped being seen. Until I showed up. We were meant for each other and they are now some of my most valued advisers.
There was also the botryoidal hematite and goethite that was being unpacked just as I pitched up at the showroom, unexpectedly. It was the most visceral and alien-looking crystal I ever did see. I was enthralled and bought some. I looked it up when I arrived home and discovered it was a sterling combination for cleansing blood at the marrow level. And I knew someone close to me who needed just that! After a few weeks, their bloods had improved considerably. They’d been doing nothing differently, except for having that crystal .
Choosing crystals
Buying crystals is mostly about paying attention. Let them find you the way these crystals found me.
I’m so excited that you can now purchase crystals directly from my website. I’ve designed the listings to help the right crystals can show up for you, just as they have done for me. I combine my own thoughts with traditional wisdom to give you what I think you might want to know. I always recommend going by how a crystal makes you feel over what it is said to do. We do all respond to different crystals in different ways.
