Fancy jasper is an opaque, fine-grained quartz that comes in a multitude of colors due to impurities, and banding which closely relates it to agate and chalcedony and has a hardness of 6.

The jasper specimens seen here are of the reds and greens, also called heliotrope and come from India.

Bloodstone Jasper, according to ancient legend, is so named
when Christ's blood fell on the jasper at the foot of the cross.

Metaphysically, heliotrope, also known as bloodstone, is a powerful grounding and protection stone.  It gives courage, teaches you to avoid dangerous situations, encourages selflessness, calms the mind and dispels confusion.  Even today, pulverized bloodstone is used as a medicine and aphrodisiac in India.

Feldspar is not a single mineral, but a group of minerals, generally aluminum silicates of either potassium, sodium, and calcium, is typically reddish or pale pink in color, and has a hardness of 6.

These feldspar specimens may also have biotite or muscovite mica, quartz and black tourmaline included and come from an area near Custer, South Dakota.

Feldspar is derived from the German "feld," field, and "spar,"
meaning a rock that does not contain ore.

Metaphysically speaking, feldspar is known to help with finding lost objects, self-awareness and using unusual methods of achieving goals.  It is said to help with muscle and skin issues.

Frog Skin Serpentine is a hydrous magnesium silicate, and varies in color from pale to deep forest green with spots or veins of black, and has a hardness from 3 to 5. 

Serpentine comes from various places throughout the world,  but these particular specimens come from an area near Glenrock, Wyoming and is great rough for cabbing.

The name Serpentine, comes from its color
and mottled scaly appearance from the Latin
"serpentinus," meaning serpent rock, and may refer
to the belief that this stone is a cure for snake-bite.

Metaphysically speaking, serpentine is known for awakening the kundalini, working for the greater good, balancing emotions and past lives.  It is said to be protective against snakebites and poisons, eliminates parasitic infections, helps with calcium and magnesium assimilation, replenishes energy and treats diabetes and hypoglycemia.

Fuchsite is a chromium rich variety of muscovite mica, emerald green in color with a beautiful sparkly shine, and has hardness of 2 to 3.  It crystallizes in sheet-like layers and masses.

This brilliant green fuchsite comes from Brazil.

The name Fuchsite is from a 19th-century German geologist,
J. N. von Fuchs.  The name mica was derived from the
Latin "micare" which meant "to shine." 

Metaphysically speaking, fuchsite is said to enhance the body's ability to heal itself, and to increase the effectiveness of other minerals that are being used in healing.  It eliminates submissive tendencies, helpful for those in law enforcement and holistic medicine.  It is known to assist in balancing red and white blood cells, treat carpal tunnel syndrome and in aligning the spine.

A geode is a rounded rock that has cavity partially or completely filled with crystals. The most common minerals found in geodes are quartz, amethyst, calcite and chalcedony.

These Geode specimens come from an area in Mexico.

Geode is derived from the Greek word "geoides" meaning "earthlike".   Geodes can form in any cavity, most often from the gas bubbles that formed when the lava flows occurred millions of years ago.  Over time this slow circulation of minerals from groundwater and hydrothermal solutions produced crystals inside the cavity.  The size, shape and color of the crystals vary, making each geode unique. Some are smoky or clear quartz crystals, and others have amethyst or citrine crystals. Others can have agate, chalcedony, or minerals such as calcite, pyrolusite, etc. There is no easy way of telling what the inside of a geode holds until it is cut open or broken apart.   

Please, wear eye protection when opening a geode to prevent injury. 

Metaphysically speaking, it is said geodes can help with decision making and are especially helpful for students or anyone with analytical pursuits such as math and science.  Known as the "shamans stone" they can help bring about visions and altered states of consciousness. Geodes are known as protection stones, to aid in spiritual growth, assist one in astral travel, for soothing and de-stressing. 

Green Quartz, a member of the quartz family, is a silicon dioxide mineral with a hardness of 7.  This quartzite has an intense green color naturally occurring from chlorite and chromium mica, and is a darker green than the aventurine.  

This Green Quartz is from Brazil and is great rough for cabbing.

The name "quartz" comes from the German "Quarz",
other sources also say the name is from the Saxon word "Querkluftertz" meaning "cross-vein ore."  White quartz was
once used for tool-making, in ceremony and is frequently found placed around stone circles and grave sites. 

Metaphysically speaking, green quartz is known as a prosperity stone, to protect the heart, and to improve one's creativity and leadership qualities.  It is said to be an all-around healer and very helpful for the heart.
