Once upon a time I went through a period of illness. It was
a very long time ago. Even now though, moments of that experience stay with me
and very occasionally I think back to that time and how it partly moulded me into
the person I am now.
During that time when I thought all the things that I have subsequently
achieved were unlikely to happen I was given a stone…a small piece of green adventurine
by a good friend who’d just gone to Uni. I carried that stone me with for ages
and collected a few more along the way. In theory, adventurine is a stone that
brings good luck – I guess it did for me. Every type of stone has a meaning –
you can see what they mean here.
I chose most of mine for their colours and the way they felt
in my hand rather than for their meaning.
Interestingly, when I was pregnant with both my girls I felt
drawn to seek out my stones again and carried a piece of rose quartz in my bag.
Rose quartz is a stone of unconditional love.
Every now and again I seek out my stones, for me they are a precious thing.
