Marbles have not been particularly meaningful for me in the past so i was curious as to why they showed up in my meditation.
Marbles left behind in a grave.
I looked down and there was a giant glass marble.
It s nice to visit the grave and see the stones are still there and shows the person isn t forgotten.
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.

I would also like to do that.
Additionally sometimes coins are left as a down payment for the deceased a promise to buy their comrade a drink in the afterlife.
Collecting marbles is a game and the person with the greatest skill is the winner.
Identifying rare marbles requires playing with the big boys by reading their books attending marble shows and shopping where you can engage in.
These maybe our source people for our spiritual customs.
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.
Thanks for the comment.
I have no idea what it means.
We are an ancestor friendly people.
I have found over 30 marbles over the past 6 or 7 years.
The pebble may go back 6000bc years to a community in turkey that left pebble size figures of mom and pop at the grave sites.
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.
