I have found over 30 marbles over the past 6 or 7 years.
Marbles left behind in a grave.
Marbles have not been particularly meaningful for me in the past so i was curious as to why they showed up in my meditation.
I have no idea what it means.
With regard to history all and i mean all rabbinic comments are suspect.
Identifying rare marbles requires playing with the big boys by reading their books attending marble shows and shopping where you can engage in.
No matter what the original intention of the coin leaver may be it seems clear that a coin left on a headstone is a symbol of remembrance and respect.
Additionally sometimes coins are left as a down payment for the deceased a promise to buy their comrade a drink in the afterlife.
Once i had not found a marble in quite a while and was mulling that over while walking my dog.
Winning at marble collecting requires practice and knowledge and is not child s play.
Collecting marbles is a game and the person with the greatest skill is the winner.
We left the stones at the grave site.
We are an ancestor friendly people.
Thanks for the comment.
These maybe our source people for our spiritual customs.
It s nice to visit the grave and see the stones are still there and shows the person isn t forgotten.

Then i read the part in your story about how merle said that your marbles symbolized gathering insight and making progress towards your goals and everything clicked for me.
I looked down and there was a giant glass marble.
