Sounds wonderful Sally, sorry to hear about your ex though, but I am sure you will have an even more powerful collection soon

I must admit I don't program any of my crystals, I prefer to find the right one to do the right task. But perhaps you mean dedicating them? Some people dedicate or vow that the crystals will only be used for the highest good.

I like making wands too, I like to use Ash as well as driftwood and silver.

Must keep those two stones in mind for June this year, thanks...Moon Stone and Malachite...lol

I have just read through all of these posts and wanted to share my experience of moonstone with you all.

A year ago, we opened a "new age" shop in the town where we live.  We had a visit from a rep who travels to India and buys all types of artifacts direct from source, including jewellery.  I was drawn to a moonstone pendant - it is a huge piece of moonstone, set in silver (the back of the stone is still exposed).

I really wasn't surprised by the attraction as I am a Cancerian but the power that comes off the stone has been amazing and VERY evident every month.  I have not experienced the pains that I have had for years, my levels of intuition were always very strong but now have gone through the roof and it has helped me through the grieving process since my husband died in February of this year.

I wear the pendant every day and, on the couple of occasions that I have forgotten it, have noticed the difference when it is not with me.

Brightest Blessings to you all.
