When reading The Crystal Bible, I found a paragraph about Chalcedony roses, which are uncommon stones.  This book said that crystsls often have a gurardian spirit, that the Crystal Being may be in another dimension with which the crystal forms a bridge.  These beings  will help you connect to rocks and minerals and may improve your healing and/or divination skills.  Since I have used stones to make my jewelry for years and have become interested in stone and rock lore and their magical uses, I decided to start working with one of these chalcedony roses.  I have four or five and never knew that they might have such beings. This week, I plan to start working with this stone.  Isn't it beautiful?  I am trying not to have any pre-conceived notion of what the "being" might look like. 

I have a hard time making my chatterbox mind be still so I better use very soft music, maybe Carlos Naka, no words, just instrumentation.    I have a candle that helps remove blockages and I will use that.  I think a short pryaer to the Mother and Father is in order.......Mother and Father, I have one of your children here, one of the Stone People.  I want to learn to communicate with and work with this being.  Will you bless and guide my work? '

and a word to the stone being.........In my ingorance, I have not honored you and have left you tumbles in a box, huddled with other stones.  I now seek knowledge and ask if you will be willing to work with me and help me in my efforts to coummunicate and work with other stone people.  So mote it be.
