Which stone would you carry this month, and why that one?

Crystals do not fix anything, and anybody promising otherwise is not being straight with you. What a stone does is keep a decision in your pocket. You choose it on a clear day, and then on an unclear day it is against your skin, reminding you of what you decided when you could think properly. That is not nothing. These nine questions look at what this month has actually been like, and match you with the stone that suits the work in front of you.
