Wahay ! I'm writing these words from Sunny Thailand ~ Just Like Melbourne it's gone from baking hot to raining and cloudy the last few days :-) I've had a perfect week just gym, swim, nap, eat well, bed early . . . . with a few relaxing drinks :-) It took me a long time to appreciate the true value of a Holiday. Holy day. Time to become more whole and reconnect with the self you are outside the boundaries of normal life.
Anyway, thanks to our wonderful team at the Heart I can now enjoy this stress free. Thanks, guys. I really appreciate you.
But of course the website runs 24/7 & my ne...
Hi guys. Just a quick one as it's getting late. Realised we moved into SCORPIO a few days ago, so if you look below this blog on the Home Page you'll see our top 8 stones for that Star Sign. I do love Scorpios - after all I have two sisters and a brother born under that sign. They can really be very entertaining and surprisingly loving . . . but boy they can hold a grudge and whip out the sting when you least expect it :-) Maybe that's why I learned the wisdom of not taking everything personally at a relatively young age !
I've really been racing through the uploads of New Stock trying to c...
Firstly I want to thank all of you, our lovely customers, who keep this Dream alive. Those of you who have been supporting us for up to 30 years ! Really ! Have of course become as old friends. I'd like to say a special thank you this year to our Web customers from all over the world. From Japan to Siberia, America to Europe, I get a real buzz sending a little Crystal Heart energy around our Lovely Planet. We have of course been fantastically busy little Elves frantically filling the Shop with conscious presents, and are happy to wrap free of charge ( unless it's too big ! ) So keep an eye...
10 pm Saturday Night, and just closed the Shop. Can't believe it's been a month since my last Blog Post ! Just been so busy. Anyway, a week ago we got our biggest shipment of crystals in and I will be uploading some selected pieces. We've a whole bunch of Amethyst Caves and candle holders - and every one is really special. Aqua Aura points sold loose by the gm. Pendants are finally on their way. A couple of big Smoky Crystals - one with Rutile inclusions, the other with masses of red Epidote. Amazing prices as I managed to make some good deals. Heaps of new Crystal Kits and Affirmation ston...
In Ancient Days at the Heart, long before this website was born, I'd come back from a trip with my Pirate's Chest of Silver and Gems and it would all be priced and shoved out on the shelves at record speed. Now it's different. Every piece has to be cleaned, photographed, measured, described and uploaded. I just worked out that's 17 different operations for each piece. That's not counting my triple sort process when I'm buying, to ensure that you see only the creme de la creme. Luckily this is a loving operation. Each piece receives the respect it deserves, and after all isn't that what we a...
I'm proud to officially present my my line of Jewellery and to be honest rather amused at the unpredictable twists and turns our path can take. After all I was raised as a scientist studying geochemistry computers and cybernetics. My last "Real Job" was as a seismologist for an Oil Exploration company (though I was also secretly practising Yoga, writing poetry and reading Tarot.) Anyway, I took a leave in India and "accidentally" checked out the Rajneesh Ashram in Pune and to cut a long story short learned about meditation, the value of a spiritual life, and the fact that I loved Crystals...
