I snapped this in '25 - I'd arrived a few days earlier than I will be this year - and was able to visit some amazing, permanent Galleries like this one: GeoWorld. Of course the fossils themselves were outstanding, but it is the display - the stands - that I also highlight in this video. Not only do they hold the skeletons together, but they enhance the viewing of them through reflection and artistic construction. 

Visit me Jan. 29 thru Feb 15 at booth P-7 in the Showcase Tent of the Tucson Gem Show on 22nd St.

PLUS, our kickoff show of 2026:

• Tucson Gem Show on 22nd St. Jan. 29 thru Feb. 15 (Tucson, AZ) INFO

In the meantime, any (and every) day - our Portal Crystal Gallery is open 7 days a week - in Arlington Center, MA at 489 Mass. Ave. from 1-4pm (starting at noon on Saturdays)

One of my regulars had been asking for a Crystal Skull Meditation since around Halloween - we worked them in this time - with a handful of very distinctive stone skull carvings: New Jade; Red Jasper; a Green Fluorite Alien head; Guava Quartz; Pyrite; and Clear / Amethyst Quartz. People picked the one they most resonated with, but not till after we'd kicked the year (and meditation) off with a Body Centering exercise; and quickly introducing a Sea Bean and Ventifact to represent the receptive and projective potential of the New Year (it being January). I like to prime people for the overall exploration by getting them in the zone - or rather - out of the day to day grind, and into a more contemplative, meditative space. I feel like they're better able to receive and explore when they strip away some of the more superfluous vibrations that have been surrounding them.

I have a glass display case I'll be ordering for my Tucson display - and the finer items: Moldavite, Sugilite, etc. - are not yet packed...I'll have to carry them in my suitcases. Fortunately, I have a week to plan that out. But I'm also doing some new graphics for a tabletop sign, that hasn't been finished yet, and will have to be rush shipped to Tucson. Should all come together in time though, we'll keep you posted on the process. 

PS. Politics as Usual - people demonstrate ineffectually - meanwhile things get worse...stay focused on the positive...do anything you can about the negative.
