Introductions to Walking Talking Rocks

Relatives around the World,
Rocks around the world tell us stories, be it you or another rock (crystalline formations).  Here we share what a rock brings in dreams, it's physical makeup and stories that have journeyed with a particular rock.  All are different, with many splendid colors and particular care need be taken with a few. But the most understood about rocks, is it's gem quality.  We like rocks because they are pretty and they shine. Now let us begin a walk and talk with our devoted and wisest of beings, the rock.

We are always looking for information and stories you have had with rocks. Please feel comfortable in leaving your comments and urls, as all is part of the great adventure we share with our rocks around the world.

your devoted servants gift this blog for you,

“The Gathering Stone” Great Grandmother gave me a stone. Bright as day it shone. In a voice made old by timeless wisdom she said; “It is a gift from our Mother Earth. Keep this stone always, and you will never be alone. Many before you have touched upon this stone. Leaving a part of their Spirit within. Life will come and life will go, but just as the stone our Spirit’s will be forever,”

Sings Relative Billy Simmons Sr. "Rock"

where we are all Earth brothers and Earth sisters live.

“The Gathering Stone”. It is a true song of a family tradition that began with my Cherokee Great Grandmother’s family of passing a stone to be touched only by dearest loved ones and trusted friends. It was then carried and passed many times over by the owner until they passed it on to a loved one when the end time came near. 

It will be an Honor for me to long remember for you to use this song. It was written in tribute to my Great Grand Mother, the ways of Olden Days, and the Spirits of her Stone that I now carry and pass to Loved Ones and Friends of my own.

May the Great Spirit always walk beside you and your loved ones upon the Earth Mother
"Rock"
"Spoken by the Green Warrior and true Spiritual Leader of the World. What has happened is the generations coincides with the returning green grass, the four sacred directions, where the embrace of the Green Grass (green warrior Rock) will unite the Rainbow Clan as one flowing river! For he is the crystalline reflection within the spiritual realm inside the house of God. And as his Great Grandmother begins to start with the beginning for the end of time to be near, only to be gifted to the Green Warrior who can complete the task of returning to the people and with this knowing of the Spiritual Realm hope is return to the hearts. This also reminds us of our Great Spirit Mother who shall lead us into the Numinous Flowing for her reign shall return law of love (red road) to all the lands, her sacred body, we call Earth. Natives know the flowing within their hearts as the Eldest Souls of the World as they have descended the most as Humans, the Red Man, who walks the Red Road, the flesh of the rolling hills across Mother Earth", says White Buffalo Calf Woman, your Twin Deer Mother. http://www.whitebuffalocalfwoman.org/stone-river
