Finding Stones

Post by AnuChild »

Forgive me if this is a silly question, but where does one actually find/buy these stones and crystals? (Especially for a witch who's in the broomcloset.)

Come, heart, where hill is heaped upon hill:
For there the mystical brotherhood
Of sun and moon and hollow and wood
And river and stream work out their will.

Hello :D


You can buy them from new age type shops but also from some health food shops. Look in the yellow pages that's probably your best bet.

Hey there
I know we are in different countries but I am going gem shopping on Thursday in Durham, Newcastle, England. Would you like me to send you the web addresses for the cool shops I get them from? I don't know what they are called just now as I don't live very near, but I am making a special trip on Thursday.

Let me know.

Yes, look under the occult in the phone book. I know that you don't know me very well yet AnuChild, but I could easily pick up some pieces for you, charge them up, and send them to your address via FedEx or DHL. I would be glad to help as I know the stones will be very useful for you. If you are interested then PM me or e-mail me and we can work out the details. I am teaching a stone and crystal seminar in a couple of weeks and whenever I do this, I always provide the students with their own stones to take home. It would be my pleasure to get some to you as you are celarly interested in this type of spiritual work.

Also, many upper level jewelery stores are beginning to carry lots of mystical stones like tanzanite, peridot or topaz. But, of course, they are usually set in gold etc.. and can be very expensive. But, browsing around, you may find some deals. Good luck on your stone hunt!!

Blessings,
bsp

Do these help or did it have to be that specific shape?
