| The Spirit of the Stones |
Naisha Ahsian described Spirit Quartz as a hundred-voice choir singing in harmony.” Spirit Quartz has thus far only been found in the Magaliesberg Mountains in South Africa, and is distinguishable by its central, candle shaped terminated crystal, covered by tiny, terminated crystals that point away from the center stone.
Because of its unique formation, this small specimen radiates energy in all directions, making it a powerful ally. Spirit Quartz cleanses the entire energetic system and is said to align the energetic, emotional, spiritual and physical bodies. Spirit Quartz is also said to be a powerful tool for working with intuition, dreams, astral travel, and strengthening our connection to what is.
Smoky Quartz is associated with the root chakra, and is well known for being an excellent grounding stone. By supporting us in rooting into the present, we’re able to release anxiety and fear, allowing us to remain in the present and to move forward in alignment with our truest self’s.
Citrine, also a member of the Quartz family, is associated with both the sacral and solar plexus chakras. Citrine is often used for manifestation, working with creativity, and strengthening our sense of self.

We strive to use only organic, non-GMO, fair trade, sustainable products & we source locally as much as possible. All product information, including details regarding packaging, will always be noted clearly in the listing.
There are certain plants that will never be used in the creation of our products. The sustainability of the products we offer and the ingredients we use matters to us. We do not use any ingredients derived from plants that are considered endangered. We utilize plant medicines that have been used in healing for centuries, while respecting the plants themselves and honoring cultural traditions by working only with plants that have been a part of our ancestral traditions.
Our intention is always that the piece you receive be the piece that you need, and that it comes to you precisely when you need it, but we also understand that the only way to be sure of this is to hold the piece in your hands.

We take great care to ensure that all pieces are well protected during shipping. If a piece arrives damaged in any way, please let us know right away so we can make this right.
Unfortunately mining crystals is not regulated in most places, which makes ensuring stones are sourced ethically quite difficult at times.
We believe wholeheartedly that these stones have the power to foster great healing, and it is with love and reverence for Mother Earth, each other, and all things that we offer these products.
We work hard to do our due-diligence. We ask questions about the origin of the pieces, and do not purchase from mines/areas that are known for having unfair practices.
Sometimes we are at the mercy of the vendor regarding this information. See our FAQ, “Ethical Stone Information - Part II” for details regarding the steps we take before we’re comfortable listing these offerings.
Certain areas/mines have no regulations in place to protect the environment, ensure staff is age appropriate, receives fair pay, treatment & benefits & has adequate PPE. We will not purchase from these locations & we work hard to determine each piece’s origin.
When not possible, we must rely on our vendors. We’ve invested time, money & effort into building relationships & trust. We also always trust our gut - If we’re not comfortable, we will not purchase. We continue to educate ourselves & on the rare occasion we learn later that a piece was mined unethically, we will pull it.
Though ethically sourced often = higher cost, we believe strongly in these values. We strive to offer pieces accessible to all, with great love & deep gratitude.
There is a short and a less than short answer here.
Short answer - I’ve never been able to get behind the whole psychology of “charging $9.99 will look like a better deal than $10 & will increase your sales.” This feels almost dishonest for me, personally, & it’s not a practice I am comfortable with simply for the sake of it.
The less than short answer is that I have always loved whole numbers, particularly the number 0. “0” is often referred to as the void & is considered the space of nothingness. While this isn’t untrue, from nothingness comes the infinite possibility of everything. The void is the beginning of creation, the sacred pause. The end & the beginning.
The number “0” has always felt like magic in tangible form to me.
