I can't believe I haven't written a Blog about Sugilite, a stone that has become a primary focus of my business and personal interest. I can remember my first Moldavite - how it launched my entire Crystal career (hear my Moldavite Podcast on Spotify here) - but I...

We had our last retreat 5 month ago - and we're having our next one this weekend. We (being my wife Nina Manolson and co-facilitator Linda Davis) had to push it forward a month, to October of this year. The reason for that was that since the May Gathering - opening an...
