Hello!! I just realized I have always liked rocks, gems, and crystals! I was wondering if it was because I have some kind of connection to them? I was wondering if anyone believes that the have healing properties or powers? Can you explain why you feel this way to me and if you feel anything similar to how I feel about them?

I always have too, more for aesthetic reasons than anything else. I don't truly believe they literally have powers or anything like that, but I enjoy learning about their symbolic meanings and things like that, and use those meanings to guide sort of meditations? I guess? I don't know how to describe it. Like I know there's nothing magical but I still enjoy the ritual, if that makes sense.
