The following are crystals that can help balance your root chakra: Black Tourmaline Garnet Bloodstone Ruby Obsidian Fire Agate Smokey Quartz For as long as I can remember, I have loved the moon! It doesn’t matter what phase the moon is in, I am always looking for it. So, of course, it’s only natural that I would want to create a jewelry collection based off the moon. When I first got this idea, all I knew was that the jewelry would be moon blessed for an entire moon cycle. I had decided to use faceted gems and set them myself. Once I decided what I wanted to create, I had to start thinking about how to make this happen. I had to think about the size, types and shapes of the gems. I had to figure out what tools I would need. Then I had to learn how to set the gems. The size was easy; around 10mm seemed to be perfect. The shapes and types of crystals, I left open. I decided I would use gems that spoke to me during the shopping process. My first purchases where Amethyst, Smokey Quartz and Blue Topaz. I had also decided to use Sterling Silver settings for several reasons. Sterling Silver is affordable for everyone and silver holds the moons energy the best – which I discovered during my research of the properties of silver. After I had purchased the gems and settings, I put them out to absorb energy on the night of new moon (the first phase of the lunar cycle – indicated by lack of moon light). I repeated this during each phase - new moon, waxing moon, full moon and waning moon. In addition, - I said a blessing over the pieces. After entire cycle had completed, each gem was infused with the energy of the phases. The new collection is called “The Celestial Collection®”. Each piece in this collection will be moon charged and Reiki Blessed. Additionally, each piece will come with information on the four moon blessings, how to re-bless them and how to connect your own energy with your new piece, and make it truly your own. The Celestial Collection is very important to me; it holds the most stable thing on this earth. You can always count on the moon’s energy!
When I was 35, I had a conversation with a healer and one of the things he told me was that my true gifts would come to light when I was 37.I didn’t know the extent of this statement. I wondered how much more could there be???? I was already creating healing jewelry and was a certified Reiki Healer. Well, about 6 months ago my life changed and hasn’t been the same.
Finally, I was hearing messages (although, I think I always have but didn’t always listen). Readings were smoother and I felt more confident in my messages. The real shock came when clients approached my table. I started to receive messages about what the client needed when it came to crystals too. Each show brings different experiences, some of them are profound. Through all of this, I am struggling with a few things. When I hear these messages, I have a hard time deciphering whose guides and angels I am speaking with. I have been told that I need to ask them to identify themselves, either by name or to whom they “belong”. The other problem I have is I don’t have a filter; things just fly out of my mouth without an explanation. I am working to learn how to filter so that I don’t upset anyone!!! Lastly, the empath in me, feels what you feel when you pick up the perfect piece. The North Carolina show was big for me; I had a few experiences that I will always remember. I actually had clients come to me requesting that I help them find the crystal they need. They had heard from other clients that I could do this. I had another client’s guides come through and had me give her a message - her guides identified themselves and it took me by shock. So what can you expect from me when you approach my booth? Well I can tune into you and help you find the crystal you need, I may even have a message for you and I might even cry. All my life, I have been sensitive. I cried easily, my stomach was in knots most of the time and I hated being around large crowds. I used to wonder why I would cry while reading a book or watching TV. Then one day in March of 2013, the answer came to me and my life changed.
On that day in March, I was vending at an expo. I had a wonderful lady approach my table and we had an instant connection. She and I talked about how sensitive she was and I explained my sensitivity to her. That’s when she said “You are an empath”. Those four words changed my life! I asked her what an empath was and she started explaining how I was soaking up everyone’s energies around me. Quickly, I realized that not only was I feeling everyone’s emotions, but I also take on any physical or mental problems they may have. This affected my health - I was on anti-depressants and I had been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and digestive issues. I learned to stay away from toxic relationships and situations. I limit my interaction with the public whenever possible. This enables me to do the work I love to do at shows. Additionally, I stopped watching the news or reading the newspaper. I quickly learned how to shield and began using crystals to protect myself. I shield myself by imagining a white light surrounding me and use labradorite to provide energetic protection. I make sure that I am grounded every morning and carry hematite or black tourmaline with me to help. I use malachite to absorb any bad feelings that may arise and lepidolite to calm me when I feel stressed. By taking these precautions, I no longer take anti-depressants, my pain has almost disappeared and I currently only have acid reflux. I still cry when I read a book or watch TV but I am a lot more emotionally stable. I recently had the pleasure of meeting a young lady at a show. She was complaining about a stomach ache to her mom. I knew immediately what was wrong; I talked to her and her mom about being empathic. We talked about how she can help herself when she feels overwhelmed and how being empathic isn’t a bad thing and can be managed. I can only hope I was able to help her because growing up feeling like that just plain sucks. I am still learning something new every day about being an empath and I hope that I can pass this information on for anyone else going through this. You’re headed to your local psychic fair for a reading with a lot of questions and information you are seeking. There will be many types of readers so what type of reader should you see? Each reader is different and has a different method of reading. Some readers speak with their Guides and Spirit while others use divination tools such as cards.
As I learned about the metaphysical world, I quickly realized the benefits of divination tools. I believe these tools can aid and help you go in the right direction. My first experience was with tarot / oracle cards. I also experienced readings with runes, followed by palmistry, toe reading and pendulums. Tarot cards are not much different than playing cards. The decks have 76 cards, which includes 20 major arcana cards and 56 minor arcana cards. Although all tarot decks are basically the same, the art is different. Tarot can be complex to learn, due to the symbolism in the art. Oracle cards are often simpler. Each deck is different and unique, and has a theme. The cards are shuffled with the intention to answer your questions and laid out into a spread. Each reader uses a spread that works for him/her. My style is to just lay them in row as they are pulled. Once the cards are laid out, the reader sees and interprets the messages that the cards are relaying. Runes are symbols carved into crystals, wood or glass pieces. The runes are put into a bag or bowl and either the reader or you will pull out a Rune to be interpreted. Palmistry and Toe readings use the shapes and lines in your hands and feet. You are probably saying “Toe Reading?” and I say, it’s a must have! (I’ve had one before and it was amazing) Pendulums are a weight suspended from a chain or cord. Most people will use crystal points with a chain attached. The energy that surges through your fingertips along with your guides, is what makes it move. Pendulums can be used to answer a yes / no answer or in a healing. I also feel we should mention Mediumship. Mediumship is communication with those that have passed on to the other side. A Medium can also connect with your guides. Some Mediums use a divination tool to receive any messages that spirits and guides want to share The most important part of receiving a reading is the connection you have with the reader. Take a few minutes before the reading starts to make sure you have a connection. This will make your reading amazing. I used to wonder why I didn’t have what I wanted. How did everyone around me have what they wanted? Then I learned the secret….Manifesting Your Dreams.
If you want something, ask the universe. I’m not saying, you can manifest a TV but you can manifest the funds for a TV. My jewelry went from a hobby to a small business with the use of manifesting. I have acquired the skills to use manifesting to my benefit. You do it with a few simple rules: 1. Visualize what your intentions are. 2. Have a positive attitude when saying your intentions. Keep all negative words and thoughts out of your head. For instance, instead of saying: “I don’t want to be sick anymore” say, “I am healthy”. 3. Be very clear about your intentions. Using the above example, we would say “My lungs are healthy and pink”. 4. I like to say an affirmation, such as “I call on my guides, angels and spirit to embrace my lungs and make them healthy.” 5. I also have a few physical items that I use. I use crystals that aid in manifesting along with crystals that are used with what I am asking for. For example: I would use quartz (manifesting) and a blue lace agate (lungs). Banana paper is a great tool for manifesting; I have a banana paper notebook that I write everything down in. I got my notebook for $3.99 at Target. 6. Lastly, you have to believe in manifesting and know that the universe is there for you. After going through these steps, I repeat them at least 3 times for each intention. As time goes on, your manifesting skills will improve and become second nature. Crystals that are a great tool for manifesting: Apatite Libyan Gold Tektite Clear Quartz Tanzanite |
