I can look at stones like this and know that some extreme devotion drove somebody to have it carved (it's La Tene Bronze Age, so the carver could well have been devoted to gold, but the person who commisioned it probably did it for another reason - although it could just be a Bronze Age garden gnome!). I can sit and follow its patterns and get lost in their beauty and it moves me; emotionally. I choose not to call that 'spirituality' but 'appreciation'.

Is there a difference? To some I don't think there is, but that's their take on it; mine is different.

No one anything about this stone, but I have seen people tell how it was used!!

Steve, your 'feeling of power vs radiating power' thing is spot on.
