    Much more interesting when you can see the flat faces than when it's a sphere, at least for me.

    • @minaolenella869
      @minaolenella869 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      well, if you talk about so called "powers" of (semi) precious stones, then there are many combinations that are traditionally forbidden, as they are bringing negative effect to wearer. For excample saphires and rubines are forbidden to wear at the same time, brilliants, given by lover, should never be borrowed to someone else to wear, opals are only for special occasions and not for everyday as they basically work like coffein. Mountain crystals and onyx are similar- good for short term, but for many people stress them out. Green turcoise has opposite effect, it calms, but a little too much, so only elderly people can wear it.
      So weather or not to believe those "traditions". But at least, if you talk about "effects of crystals and minerals", be consistent in your take. Either go for science- which means those are just pretty things with no effect. Or tradition- which has tons of rules when and how you can use those so you would not get negative reaction.

    • @minaolenella869
      @minaolenella869 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @Bruh my scientific part agrees with that notion. Which means it is cheaper and more effective (and environmentaly friendly) to just buy some glass or ceramic ball, instead of agate. Yet I have quite many natural stones in my house.

Our desires for materials really are getting out of hand. How much I want stones like that, and tho I do have gemstones, most as gifts, I wouldn't buy it anymore.

      And ofcourse it destroys homes for other species. If goats used to live on those mountains they can't live there anymore. Same goes for snakes, birds and all kinds of species. Same with the rainforest, if you destroy trees, animals wouldn't be able to live there anymore. That also isn't so hard to understand right🤦🏽‍♀️

And I never SAID YOU SAID THAT, but you ARE insinuating that we stop by talking about how "bad" it is. When in all reality it's not even bad. Because it's not very hard to find these stones.
