It's been almost 3.5 years since I last went mining - I was actually about 8 months pregnant with Yirah, then! So when our road trip led us close to that same mine, which was so abundant before, we made some time for the dig!
I am so glad that we did! It definitely did not disappoint. ✨️
I was very intentional with this dig. With our limited space, I only wanted to collect pieces that would be used for jewelry or shared with other's for their collections.
This mine is pretty consistent with bringing up fresh dirt full of pieces. We caught 4 new piles in this run! The wet, muddy sand made it easy with the sunlight to see some shine on the surfaces in those piles.
I was pretty satisfied with mining, but Jaime was chillin, so I just kept looking in the area he was in. That's when I saw some formed quartz that showed more clarity. I said, "I just want to find a good one I can hold in my hand," envisioning something big, with all 6 sides of the quartz.
After a little more walking, I found this big one shining through the dirt. It was at most 1.5 inches revealed when I first saw it! The feeling of using your fingers to clear the surface of the crystal and it just keeps revealing more. 🥹✨️ While this wasn't what I was envisioning, I did receive what I wanted. It has 6 sides to its point, though likely pulled from another large structure of similar formation.
So excited about this dig! Grateful for the experience, patience, and clear intentions to receive what I needed/wanted.
Naturally, these stones are going to stay out and get that full moon/lunar eclipse energy tonight. I don't normally charge my crystals, but it feels aligned to do so since they haven't been brought inside yet.
Doing a little rain dance this rising so that they will get another cleaning before then. ✨️
Location: Ron Coleman Mine in Arkansas.
