It got very warm around here so I'm getting started on gardening. I stumble, literary, across these two geodes. Some of you may remember that I keep finding small geodes in my backyard... but this (one in the back in photo) may be the biggest one. My collection grows!

#geode #rocks #minerals #crystalsI pick up a couple of rocks when I'm hiking, so I've been wanting to find a way to ID them. I just downloaded an app called "Rock Identifier," for which the free period is only 7 days 🤨 also I don't much care for the "Healing Content" because I'm not one of crystal people. If you have any recommendations for a good app, let me know!

@Tamami "Healing Content" gave me a chortle!
healed by the magical healing powers.... of content.
I am all for the placebo, and its incredible powers, but the word healing and the word content together is crazy.
like "Spiritual Discounts".
or "Karma Sales." -

#geode #rocks #minerals #crystalsIf I recall, there was a theory that someone collected them, brought them there, and then they got scattered. In any case, it's either that or aliens.

@donray Yes, a geology or mining profs (I live in a college town) were suspected... But I totally prefer aliens!

or "Karma Sales."@falcennial OMG it reads: Clear Quartz's association with the crown chakra means it may have significant influences on the brain" If that's the case, the world would be more intelligent! Totally "magical"

@Tamami
🤌it's amazing isnt it.
but I suppose meditating on such stories is still real meditation.
and even thinking about how much one loves quartz can only be good for the mood and the brain.
plus it's genuinely funny! lots to love.
this has gotten all my chakrae firing at once

@Tamami I have a colleague that swears by AI image searches for rock IDs. She actually uses chatGPT. I bet some of the other AIs would also work, but GPT is the one more of our students are familiar with.
Unless you're in a mining district or other place with more exotic minerals, it does quite well.

@Tamami an alternative would be pick up a DK book from the library kiddo section. They can be great references. Also, Rockd app might be helpful. I use it without signing in. Gives lots of geo info.

@kellyromanych With all those reference books we have, I'd think we have something on the bookshelves... I'll go look! I might try that app too. Thank you!

@DrKylara That makes sense! I'll try that, thank you!

@Tamami
If you're up to learn a bit of geology, you might grasp enough knowledge on how to do it on your own (with or without help of classifiers and other books).Some time ago I found a bunch of entry level lectures from a geology professor, made during the pandemic, that were interesting enough to follow, like that one https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLOf4plee9UzCH2w8e2_xpvaq6w1gGCf5Q
And I bet there is an adjacent community here on fediverse, just one or two hashtags away.
