Welcome Summer!
Here comes summer which means schools are out and you’re faced with how to keep kids entertained and active while still continuing to learn mentally and emotionally. We love the influx of kids and parents during these summer months and would like to encourage you to consider putting together a group of rock lovers for a store tour. We can work with you to help educate and experience the benefits of Nature.

Nature heals our bodies in many ways, most directly through the absorption of Vitamin D. Just being outdoors and one with Nature enhances the mind by increasing serotonin production and revitalizing the soul. Whether you're a child or a big kid at heart, we’re here to help you gain the benefits of being one with Nature - no purchase necessary!

In some cultures, the Strawberry Moon on June 3 marks the end of spring and is said to symbolize abundance and prosperity. Astrologers believe this moon brings hope, prosperity and fruition of your plans. What a great time to cleanse your crystals and imbue them with this wonderful and helpful energy. Remember you don’t have to necessarily clear all your crystals at once. Maybe you consider just the ones that have been working hardest for you and then a few others that you might consider special. A rotation of small batches works just as well and relieves the burden of moving ALL your crystals outside at the same time. The perfect cleanse includes a total 24 hour exposure so crystals sitting in windowsills can also reap the clearing benefits of the full moon and the sun's rays.

The official declaration of Summer occurs this month on the 21st with the arrival of the Summer Solstice. This day will offer you the most amount of daylight for the whole year. Don’t forget to send loving energy to all Fathers on the 18th for Father's Day and please take a minute out of your busy day to send energy throughout on World Environment Day, June 5. We must all do our part to be responsible for the impact we are having on our environment and how it will affect future generations.

Some highlights in this month's newsletter include:
  • A reminder about our upcoming Full Moon Gathering and Tarot & Oracle Expo
  • Catch our blog article for the month - Crystals for Gemini’s
  • Learn about our featured Agate in the Depot - Moroccan Agates
  • Read about Turtle Scutes and their protective energy
  • Check out our Online specials on our social media platforms
Please everyone, continue to stay safe and healthy.

Blessings,
Karen and the Staff

Information & News
Learn about crystals, what they mean, where they come from, and how to use them!

Blogs from our Crystal Wisdom: News & Information blog (below) can be read time
If your birthday falls between May 21st and June 20th, Gemini is your sun sign. Gemini is symbolized by the twins, which is why Geminis are often perceived as having a dual nature or a split personality. Their element is air, which is associated with communication, the intellect, and the intangible. It is fitting that Gemini is ruled by Mercury, which is the planet of communication, thought, and networking. Geminis are a fascinating and fun enigma. Cerebral and outgoing, they are brimming with intelligence and curiosity. This leads them to explore a variety of interests, making them a jack of all trades...As with all zodiac signs, there are some challenging aspects of the Gemini personality. Geminis are often juggling many interests, jumping from one thing to the next without going deep, making it seem as if they are all over the place. For this reason, they can come across as unreliable, superficial, directionless, or inconsistent...Working with the right crystals can bring out the best in Gemini while helping them to overcome any growing edges. HERE are the best gems for Gemini.

Featured Fossil: Turtle Nuchal Scute
Featured Agate: Moroccan Agate



Moroccan agate comes in a very wide variety of colors and patterns, as it originates in widely disseminated locations in Morocco. Known for its brilliant colors and intriguing patterns, this material has had renewed interest in recent years as more agate has become available on the world market. It makes superb cabbing stock and takes an exceptional polish.  The great variety makes it an excellent collector’s variety.

Stern Hatcher - Featured Artist
Photography

My photographic work is a word salad of imagery. My subjects range from the exodus of shoppers, lightning storms, interesting studio portraits, and festivals, to a tiny spider’s dinner. Since 1986, teaching photography has guided my path in helping others, and I have collected many cameras, photographs, images, and tools. I take photos using the creative aspects of learned formal composition with a “Catch-as-catch-can” approach. I studied visual art at Texas Lutheran University and earned a Master in Art and Technology from The University of Texas Dallas.
