The beach is where I seem to come across the most wishing stones, although I have had some luck on hikes out in Mother Nature! I seem to often go alone or with my boys. This can be a solitary activity or you can bring friends or family. It's not entirely necessary, but it adds to the experience and makes my stones a little more meaningful. I adore when things have significance to me, so when I collect them, I try to go to places that feel special to me. If you just want to give the stones a try, head somewhere a little less populated and start searching there. Location is not a problem because wishing stones can be found anywhere. This gave me a heap load of practice finding them and the more I went on the hunt- then that white band became quite eye-catching and I could find them quickly! It is kind of like when you want to buy a certain make and model of a car in a particular color-you start seeing them often! I soon became a hunter of the wishing stone professional! It truly is so much fun and kind of becomes like a challenging game on how many you can find! This is the description I have always been told, but of course, if I find a stone with two bands, I consider that extra lucky!Īs soon as I learned about wishing stones, I wanted to collect as many as I could. The lines form as a result of pressure within the crust, like a fracture and the quartz fills it. What is that white line in the rock? They are called bands, stripes or veins and are quartz or calcite. That unique white ring makes these stones somewhat rare, but unmistakable. This band can be of any thickness, but there should only be one and it should be unbroken. The common lore on wishing stones is that they can be any size or shape, and are uniform in color except for a solid white band encircling the entire stone. Identifying and Using Your Wishing Stones
