Wearing authentic crystals for good luck

[aquacharly]

For kids, jade:  green, yellow, white, even pink or orange. 

Per my experience nga, do not wear amethyst to bed/sleep; do not put it under your pillow.  If you want it around you, put it beside you -- on your bedside table.  GORGEOUSMAMA, I am not an expert, just sharing my experience and what I have learned from my experts.

PURPLE BEAR, have her wear smoky quartz & black tourmaline to  bed.       And if you can get white howlite -- put it under  her pillow.         Tapos, when she's about to sleep -- say:      respect her space, all keep away as this is a Universal Law.   

pa OT pls for the kid's sake --  PURPLE BEAR,   I  hope you won't take it against me but ... Check your yaya again, people change.  Or someone in school?   Talk to your daughter very patiently, with no yaya  around. Impress on her that you and her dad will not let anything bad happen to  her. Also, that  she should not believe people who tell her they  can harm you or her dad.    Stress that you 2 are  very capable of taking care of yourselves.   

I am happy  all/most of you are enjoying the Judy Hall book; and discovering so many new crystal sources.   Haynako, ewan ko ba. Once demand picks up,  the sellers raise their prices.

 GORGEOUSMAMA, it is good to have FLUORITE in the room, it clears the atmosphere of electromagnetic debris.

on sat ill go to binondo and find that store sa salazar st..sasabayan ko ng food trip hahaha..

ill buy the crystals for me, my niece and for my cousin who has lupus in canada..

kesa bag ipadala ko na request nya.. something for her health na lang...

im very much worried with my niece hay..  noted yung crystal suggestions black tourmaline-for my protection, citrine-depression (me and my niece), rose quartz -for me hehe and red corals-for my niece..bloodstone ata for my cousin. might check carnelian since i have pcos

[aquacharly]

Goodness, hope  this  doesn't earn me another Warning for post padding.... Huh?!   but I just gotta  say something.....

My dear Sisters, enthusiasm for crystals is very contagious.  I do not mean to be a wet blanket but... Let us go about our acquisitions with efficiency... On getting the most benefit per investment unit.   (But go ahead and purchase what makes you happy. Who am I to say HUWAG when there's all that crystal in my closet. )

The thing is --  PRIORITIZE achieving self balance.  Heed yourself  very well.  Like, I may need this and that, want this  or that, have this or  that problem -- fine.  If you "talk"  to yourself honestly & truthfully -- you will get feedback important to how you will BALANCE yourself. 

Like most here,  na sense nila what they are initially after is what does not resonate most with them. 
Once you balance yourself  out more --  some of your concerns/problems/yearnings get planchado...  Hindi na ganun ka tindi, it all becomes manageable na.     Please keep in mind these are not cures, crystals are aids... bottomline,  it is still all up to us to focus our energies and to act to advance our interests or upgrade our quality of life... Or ugali, hehe

Well said Sis Aquacharly! 

[kikai]

noted sis aquacharly..

when i do my field trip in binondo priority ko isa my niece and my cousin...then for myself yung protection and my ovary problem..

thanks to all sisses..dami ko natutunan that i shared this to my other friends...=)

Sa sobrang pretty nga ng crystals madaling kaadikan ang pamimili nito, much like a lot of women's addiction to shoes, makeup, or bags. But as with a lot of my purchases, I like canvassing sa numerous places since I want to know what I'm buying, and at a good price. No hurry sa pagbili, mas maraming ikot at tanong muna.

I think for most circumstances, we make our own luck and our actions determine our respective destinies, but a nudge or two from 'other' sources are always appreciated since we need all the help we can get in this life. Whether crystals help us or not, they are beautiful accessories, at least, and just like shopping for diamonds or pradas, it's important to learn to distinguish the genuine from fake so that we get our (or our husband's ) hard-earned money's worth.

Ngayong aware na ako sa crystals, it surprises me how many people I meet and places I visit also believe pala in crystals. Most surprising are those from the scientific field, napapansin ko that not a few of them also wear authentic crystal accessories, and they know what they're wearing it for.

Na-tame na ulit ang pagpaparamdam ng mga whatevers, mukhang sa una nabigla lang ako sa effect ng crystals. I just became more focused on willing it to stop, ayun, parang controlled na ulit. And for some reason, people at home are really quite more relaxed and agreeable these days lol.

finally i  went to OBELISK  at Mnla PEN,

the SA was helpful and accomodating , JINKEE and Nancy was so informative.

 puro choker ang mga naka display,

  but you can order naman pala a bracelet if they have available stone

so ng order ako ng CITRINE bracelet , its between 7-6k ,since it was not available at the moment so before they MAKE ONE I will check it out first pa  if aprub sakin  the CITRINE

i saw a choker rose quartz with  a carnelian peg at 14k,,I was attracted to it, very pretty , when i tried it , i kinda like the feeling of the rose quartz  in my neck

actually when i was in the MINEX last month, i was drawn to rose quartz also,,, I took a liking din dito and sa Hematite but priority ko si Citrine and Moonstone

It swept me off my feet...!!! very pretty,,, so hubby reserved it  for me, this one na lang daw is his monthsary gift for me,,,, kasi di natuloy yung Citrine sa UNANG PANAHON in Mega

and yes sis AQUA, the crystals/ gemstones  there are jawdropping , but NAPANGANGA din  AKO SA PRICE, hahahahaha

and eto pa GOV YNARES was just 5 minutes ahead of me ,, he ordered also  a choker
,
these crystals are ruining my budget,,lol
 

[aquacharly]

GORGEOUS MAMA     yes, nakaka panganga prices ni Obelisk but if you think of it... once you get say that Citrine from her, hindi ka na halos maghahanap. Ma contento ka na.  Keepers talaga the goodies there.  Best thing is,  even when you wear these abroad .. like in NYC or say Paris -- iba ang dating eh, napapansin coz they are really quality stones.

You will keep on going back to that place, if you are serious about your crystal stone acquisitions.  Hers are good investments really.   I get most of my chokers or necklaces from her.   save, buy... save, buy... lol  I haven't been there for I think 4 months na, mahirap na eh.  But I have not regretted any of my purchases from her.

Actually, lol, GORGEOUS MAMA  eto gigil ako kasi to-date hindi ko ma debug her country source.   Wala sa China nyan, sa Thailand, Indonesia.  Baka sa Turkey isip ko eh, or Eastern Europe.   



 

[gorgeousmama]

SIS AQUA,

im so excited na nga sa citrine, and for the RQ choker ,, its like acquiring an LV/hermes bag, hahahahaha

 ill save up  for the jade necklace I saw  there, actually ang daming jawdropping choker/ necklace


  imagine we always eat here coz member si hubby and yet Im not aware that Obelisk exist w/c  caters stones/ gems sa PEN

thanks for sharing Obelisk

[sarahsensible]

^OMG sis I am so wanting to go to Obelisk! Ang napuntahan ko lang lately Acc Lab ulit but didn't get anything.

I can imagine that RQ choker OMG talaga!! Super nice talaga kasi si RQ!

Alam nyo, I was informed by sis feline to try Peridot because she found out that Peridot can be a big help for giving birth, especially sa contractions and para mas mapadali ang pag labas ni baby. So don't wear it yet pag hindi mo pa due. Now, there's this small pendant peridot ako nakita sa Acc Lab, I asked the SA to get it for me but I won't touch it..ay nanigas ang tummy ko so nilayuan ko agad si peridot. 

Sis AQUA when we consider them as investments like that of LV -- gaya ng laging sabi ng hubby ko,  hindi na sya nakakahinayang gastusan

[gorgeousmama]

^Go ka na sa Obelisk and feast your eye in their jawdropping choker/necklaces,      for all you know meron ka ding ma TAKE HOME

i thought maalam na ko sa crystals nakow talagang nalilito pa din ako, hahahaha

I dont have pink dresses or any color pink na things but i am smitten sa RQ 

[mommynin8]

^it takes a year to grow  a coral an inch long, that's  not even as thick as your little finger. So I prefer to bug old relatives and our family alahera for corals.   What I usually see passed off as coral is generally fishbone or reconstituted shell/stone colored orange or red. That was what I saw at Acc Lab, in Greenhills & even at Obelisk -- but that is just my opinion.      Most significant pieces of authentic coral  I see nowadays are in brooch form, mosly in very pale orange.   In Indonesia,  white coral  is  easier found than orange.   So there --   dig up old jewelry or ask your trusted alahera.

by experience, unworn coral jewelry turn into orange... they turn red when worn and if the wearer is healthy.  i was given a bracelet of  corals by a muslim friend, when i had my stroke.  when it was first given to me it was very pale.  now it's the color of a very ripe strawberry - very red, almost red violet - the friend says it's because the corals reflect the health of the wearer.  (after my stroke i cannot use my right hand efficiently - now i can write again!)    i now always wear my coral bracelet kahit hindi sya bagay sa outfit, kasi i feel safe and healthy pag suot ko sya.

[gorgeousmama]

went back to  ACC. LAB, i saw a CITRINE worth 13k, grabeee ang ganda nya, mybe if  i  didnt make a reservation sa Obelisk ng Citrine  , i might get this one,,

maliit lang sya but i can really  say the gemstone is  of good quality, the color is uniform , there's no inclusion .very clear ,,, just one look at it and even your not an expert in scruttinizing a crystal you will definitely be convince that this is a very good specimen.. 


I was planning to purchase the moonstone that's why I went there but  when i saw the moonstone parang there is no attraction anymore, im more drawn to RQ , to think they were peg at the same price ha, but the RQ bracelet won me over

sis auqua,

I was there to buy the moonstone but this time , it didnt appeal to me, i was more smitten sa RQ,
why kaya??? mybe ILL buy the moonstone , ONE DAY

sis sarah,

FINALLY i have a RQ bracelet na, hahahaha,, si moonstone ang sadya ko there but I took home the RQ bracelet,I will pair this dun sa necklace from the Obelisk,,,

but that's not the reason why i purchased it, not becoz i want to match it sa necklace,,problem ko nga I dont have a pink outfit eh and im not fond of pink attire  ha

[sarahsensible]

^sis GORGEOUS! RQ is so elegant and classic that it will suit even a crisp white tee and jeans  -- well for me ha! Kaya gusto ko yan si RQ eh!

Pareho tayo ng dilemma lagi kay moonstone, every time na sya ang sadya ko hindi sya nakikiusap sa akin! LOL

[gorgeousmama]

sis AQua,

finally I went to ATONG's place and sis your right he gives better price compared to all the stores like Dragon and Crystal's Gift shop and 3 pa na pinuntahan namin

and I also noticed na quality wise pareho sya ng sa ACC LAB, and mas cheaper ke  ATONG, kasi yung Citrine na nakita ko  5k sa A. LAB exactly the same ng ke  ke Atong 4, 500 lang

if not for my order sa Obelisk na Citrine, i will surely buy this one,, kasi mganda quality,and mas mura than ACC.Lab,

thanks again sis aqua :)for the input ( ATONG)

BY THE WAY he is asking who referred him to us coz his clientele daw is more on referrals and not walk in,

[kikai]

hindi ako natuloy s binondo coz it rained ng hapon =(
nung morning i was with a gt sis and i mentioned to her im going to binondo nung hapon.she gave me a number dun daw sya nabili ng crystals before his name is anton.. taga pasay if i remember it right.. havent contacted him.. after holyweek na lang im planning to sched an appt in his house since malapit sa ofc..

 

[lunaysol]

Atong gives reasonable prices. When I was looking to buy a black tourmaline bracelet, I really canvassed and asked around. I finally bought from Atong kasi mura and maganda ang quality.

[aquacharly]

GORGEOUSMAMA...  Oo, Atong can be entertaining. He will text you when he receives new shipments.  4500?  You should haggle him down to 4thou.  You are in Binondo, so the difference should be at least a thou.  .  Oftentimes, he has better specimens than ACC Lab. 

Do not worry about Obelisk.  Just say you couldn't  wait anymore.  Sa crystals -- walang pilitan.   . 
 .

LUNAYSOL, yes --  he gets good specimens of black tourmaline, and onyx.  He also has limited supplies of very clear, uniform colored strands of colored tourmalines  and amber.

We  get our clear crystals and citrine chips from  Atong too.     It is  hard to cleanse what we  wear everyday... So, after each use, we just cleanse the items by storing these overnight in a box filled the chips.  If we feel the item is "heavy" pa rin after -- then we cleanse with the incense and singing bowl. 

[gorgeousmama]

sis kikai,

I suggest that you buy your crystals from ATONG, we went around BINONDO and Ongpin, and I can truly say na ATONG  has good quality stones and cheaper,,

 saka ang nakakatuwa ke Atong he will tell you if why this one is mura and that  one is mahal

saka bbgyan ka nya ng crystals acc to your budget

sis lunaysol

glad that you found Atong :

,, agree with you that his crystals is mura and of good quality, proof yung nakita ko sa ACC. LAB na exactly the same ng ke Atong but cheaper

sis aqua

thanks  sa sa mga recommendation mong stores when buying crystals,

 i can really recommend  ATONG  sa mga sisses natin

I will pm you later ha

sis sarah, feline

try to check out  Atong's store in Binondo

sis seven82

thanks sis sa pgturo ng direction ng store ni ATong,

[gorgeousmama]

i forgot to make kwento na twice kaming ngpunta sa BInondo, di ko maabutang bukas si ATong and I was really disappointed,

actually  we were in Binondo last TUESday, for camera accessories,

 when we arrived at his store its already closed , i was kinda sad , so we ate siopao na lang at the nearby resto , but I forgot my  shades sa resto so we had to go back yesterday to get my shades

 what a good excuse  to go back to Binondo  and  see ATong's store   
 

FINALlly I , was able to buy the elusive MOONSTONE from Atong ,, hahahaha, mganda  this one coz there is an  iridescent circles appearing on the beads,, and for some reason this one got me enticed rather than that of the ACC,LAB, same price but of course I got it at  a lower price here ke Atong

napakamot na lang sa ulo si hubby, hehe, kasi nga he will pay again the CItrine and the ROse Quartz next week sa Obelisk,,,he kidded me na I purposely left my shades sa resto so we can go back soon sa BInondo, hehe,

So I promised him after the Citrine and the RQ, stop muna,,,

I just hope I can keep my promise,  lol
