Where we live on this planet, decides what we think of as a treasure. I thought of that today, when I went out for a walk in the woods nearby where I live. As is so common in the Stockholm area of Sweden, granite rocks can be found easily, even large. This one looked particularly smooth and I wondered how many people have not touched it or sat on it? Granite is said to be a development of lava for thousands of years. Ours mostly coming from the Ice-age, simply left on the ground where the ice melted. But, does granite also hold symbolic healing properties the way many hold to be true for crystals like Rosequartz or Amethist? Are we walking around in gemstone wonderland ourselves but can’t see the beam in our own eye? I doubt that any Swedes, besides children, would carry pieces of granite in their pockets, or medicine pouches like wannabe Native American Indians. Why is that?

The rarer the find, the greater the treasure.

According to Google, the Mayan Indians hold Granite high, as a rock for protection. Probably, because they aren’t very common in South America. To me, Granite stands for stability. It’s simply my own symbolism. What if people chasing gemstones to carry in their pockets, are really longing for a rock to lean on, as in having faith? Did you know? You can decide yourself, what you want your gemstone to mean for you. It can be used as a reminder, as a pretty object beautifying your home or office, or to elevate your energy that it naturally does, carrying energy from where it comes, and because of your own beliefs that together with your spirit can charge it as.

At Telluselle Living Center, we want to come together to celebrate and cherish nature regardless of faith, upholding, and introducing, Indigenous knowledge and culture, by teachers according to lineage.
