Fairy Stone Display

Phtot-stand-4This display shows you the environment in which the fairy stones are found in the lakes of northern Quebec.

 

 

FAIRY STONES  are native to northern Quebec.  These stones were formed a few thousand years ago, in the permeable layers of a basin created by the receding glaciers, where water , laden with carbon dioxide flowed through the rock and dissolved the limestone it contained.  When pressure and temperature conditions changed, the dissolved lime was concentrated and deposited a bit further.  Waterways then began sculpuring these calcareous concretions, sometimes in abstract forms, rounded pebbles or even genuine works of art.  These natural sculpures are made of fine argillaceous sand with a limestone cement.  The small traces observed on the stones are prints left by microorganisms.

HEALING PROPERTIES OF FAIRY STONES:
Fairy stones have a calming effect.
Good stone for grounding-earth energy.
Excellent for radiation and chemotherapy patients.
Reduces heat from fever
Helps to balance water and hot flashes in women with menopause.
They help to release stress.
They help ease depression and loneliness for people who are far away from their loved ones such as our soldiers.
Fairy stones bring back the inner child in us, making us feel happy and joyful  remembering the fun things in life when we were young.  We often forget how little it takes to make us happy. 
They are protective stones.  The local Indian tribes used to wear them on their hunting and fishing trips for protection.
They are effective in dispelling negative energy.
They balance calcium in the body.
They help to heal wounds and bruises and reduce inflammation.
They encourage love between parent and child and encourage friendship.
They help dispel anger and jealousy.
They clear negative thoughts and protect against psychic attacks.
Fairy stones work well on older people who are sad and lonely.  They help bring back beautiful childhood memories and special moments in their lives.  We often forget about the elders around us.  A nice gesture would be to give them a fairy stone as a gift.  It will bring the inner child back to them.  It will feel as if someone is there with them all the time. Thank you for thinking about our senior citizens.
