I posted this thread because I have felt led BACK into this particular interest. Taking in mind what you said, I was happiest with my order from a one person company, who seemed very in tune with the purpose behind my search. That was the aforementioned MoonCave Crystals. I spoke personally with the owner, and she was overwhelmingly helpful.
She sent a few extras with my order, including a stone called Angelite, which I LOVE.

One question; I thought each stone was only to be used by its owner, thus allowing only their vibrations to influence the stone. When you gift your stones to others, do you remove your energy, or pass that along?
And, is it wrong to purchase stones for their particular sacred meanings, which is what I did because I wanted stones with SPECIFIC meanings? I wanted to use them for healing and meditation, not 'collecting'? I have never worn jewlry for simple fashion's sake - I wanted pieces, mostly tumbled stone and no exotic crystals, and I chose stones for specific needs. How do I balance the desire for the stones with the need to keep from harming Mother Earth? Now, I feel bad, because I love Mother Earth, and my intention was only to come closer to Her, not harm Her... :cry:
