FaeryGoth Chick says:Great pick Susan! I like these beads very much

Chicky Suz aka Susan Z says:Thank you, Sarah! I did a little reading on line since all the discussions on crystals adn healing. I have always been interested but certainly do not have your knowledge. The site I was on said that a good first healing bracelet would be amethyst, rose quartz, hematite and clear crystal Now I see you say only wear 2, is this too much? I made a bracelet last night and am trying to figure out if it is working!
On Aug 12, 2009 at 1:26 pm #
FaeryGoth Chick says:Please Susan, don’t call me an expert for that I am not
Still much I need to learn about the subject. It is not a problem if you have 4 in this case, they all work a bit in the same area. The beads are probably not that large either so it will probably be not a problem
I hope it will work!

Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Susan, this is lovely! These colors are beautiful and your arrangement is great!
I’m curious, too, if all 4 could be worn in one bracelet.

Chicky Suz aka Susan Z says:I think I feel a positive energy, but you know how sometimes you are not sure if you feel it or you “want” to feel it? It is pretty, anyway!
On Aug 12, 2009 at 1:28 pm #
Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Susan, were these crystals for healing in general? Or something specific?
On Aug 12, 2009 at 1:29 pm #
Chicky Suz aka Susan Z says:Lynn Eileen,thanks! I am wearing the bracelet I made right now.
On Aug 12, 2009 at 1:30 pm #
Chicky Suz aka Susan Z says:I think Sarah could probably answer beetr than I, what I read was that they are relaxing and healing in general….

FaeryGoth Chick says:If you feel an effect, than it works for you.
Rock crystal is a great healer, very powerful stone for it has a very pure light. Rose quartz is more gentle, very suitable for children.

Chicky Suz aka Susan Z says:OK, better not beetr!
On Aug 12, 2009 at 1:31 pm #
Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Thanks to you both!!!

Chicky Suz aka Susan Z says:I like the idea of rose quartz for children, good to know!
On Aug 12, 2009 at 1:34 pm #
FaeryGoth Chick says:Yes, it really is, even for babies

Vee aka Dream Chickie says:Hey Chicky Suz, Lynn, and Sarah
Great bracelet combo Chicky Suz! Love it! You can wear more than 2 at a time. I think that is said because some people may feel a strong effect at first from the energy such as a headache, but even then you get use to the energy and it goes away and the stones keep right on working for you. But I feel you should be ok. So, go for it. I love these stones especially the amethyst and rose quartz together and I love how you have rock crystal aka clear quartz in the mix!
Please, keep us posted! Oh, I just read you are wearing it now! Cool!!
On Aug 12, 2009 at 1:50 pm #
Vee aka Dream Chickie says:Oh, also for example, when I started wearing my Blue Moon bracelet for healing purposes it took me a couple of days of wearing it to really feel a difference. If you wear it for several days, then don’t wear it, you may notice that you don’t need it as often because the crystal energy will absorb into you.
Keep us posted on this!

Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Hi, Dream Chickie!!! Thanks for your input on this, too!

Deb D Grammy Chick says:Sarah will be happy to know that the “purple person” in me is really starting to come out thanks to her passion for purple, and now your beautiful pick Susan!!! This really is an awsome pick…the colors are beautiful together, and I’m anxious to see if the crystals really help you.

Vee aka Dream Chickie says:Hey Lynn, thanks!! I love hearing about crystal therapy success stories!
Very cool, Deb! I also love purple! Amethyst and charoite are some of my favs at this moment.
This pick is in my favs.

Chicky Suz aka Susan Z says:Thanks All!! I definitely feel positive energy. I also read that jade helps back pain and I put some in a pouch last night for my husband to sleep on. He suffers from chronic back pain due to an injury, he said he beleives that it helped! I am definitely looking into this more!!

Purple Chick aka Violet says:I love your pick especially the purples. Amethyst is my favorite.
I found this great website that has lots of information on the healing properties of gemstones. It’s called Charms Of Light.
I found it very useful.
Go to http://www.charmsoflight.com On the sidebar, click on healing , then click on gemstone properties, then at the bottom of that page you can scroll down to find a large selection of gemstones and their healing properties.
Very interesting information.

Chicky Suz aka Susan Z says:Thanks for the website Violet, that is cool! I will definitely check it out!

Happy Chick aka Harriet says:Violet, I wanted to say thanks too.
I have been very drawn to tourmilated quartz for a long time, and, after checking the site, I can sort of see why. It’s for Capricorn (me) and has healing and balancing proerties, and protection. Very cool!
