The crystals I am working with for the week are Desert Rose, Polka-dot Rhyolite and Picture Jasper. I use these crystals to connect to your energy, to connect to the message meant for you, and to send the healing properties of the crystals to you. 

Desert Rose – Desert Rose is a variety of Selenite. It is a stone of the mind, as well as Angelic stone. It is said to bring mental ability and clarity, as well as perception of all kinds, including intuitive perception. Desert rose is used to quiet worries and still the mind from distractions. It is said to be helpful for the spine and the skeleton in general, and for aligning the spine properly.

Polka-dot Rhyolite – Assists with balance, regeneration and mind abilities. As a balancing stone, it helps you see and understand all the parts of yourself that are out of balance. It then helps you let go of any past blockages. Helpful for anyone working with any type of self esteem issues and procrastination. It is also useful for finding love that is a healthier type of relationship for you. As a regeneration stone, it is useful in all aspects of maintaining or regaining beauty. It can help rekindle a relationship. Where mind abilities are involved, it is useful in most any situation. It can help those using their psychic abilities to connect easier and is a powerful stone for anyone attempting to astral travel or for channeling. It is perfect for use in any sort of working that use elemental forces. As a healing stone, rhyolite helps boost the immune system. It helps cleanse both the liver and kidneys.

Picture Jasper – It is a grounding and harmonizing stone with a strong connection to the Earth. It is said to promote feelings of responsibility towards the planet, encouraging a need to care for and protect it. Picture Jasper’s grounding energy can give you a strong sense of who you are, where you’ve been and where you are going. It is said to encourage creative visualization, creativity and business pursuits. It is also said to help alleviate fear. In healing, it is believed to stimulate the immune system, to help clear pollutants and toxins from the body, and to cleanse the kidneys. It is believed to be useful when giving up smoking as it is said to strengthen the resolve.

I don’t know about you guys, but I have been putting myself out there a lot more lately, and trying to not allow fear to control my life. I know with #BellLetsTalk Day, a lot of people stepped out of their comfort zones to share their truths. It is scary trying to put yourself out there! It is easy to just allow things to pass you by. To keep doing the status quo. The crystals are reassuring us that what we are working towards, and how we are putting ourselves out there, is totally worth it. You know where you are heading. We are being guided by the Angels, and our perceptions are clear. You are connecting more deeply to your abilities. The crystals are helping us to alleviate fear. It also helps to cleanse our bodies, to remove toxins and live as purely as possible. Let’s see what cards come for the week.

Wow… these cards are so beautiful to me. Summer is a rich and fulfilling season, and 3 of the 4 cards happen to be summer for this week. The last card fell out and felt like it needed to be included! I love the rainbow energy it holds, that blessings are on the way. Seeds that we have planted are growing rapidly. People may be drawn to spend time near the water. The suit of summer brings us spiritual growth. It seems like this week we are going to have some great family time. I know here in Alberta the weather has been lovely and it’s a wonderful time to get outside with the family. You are supported by those around you and feel connected to your friends and loved ones. You are doing a great job raising your kids and providing them with enriching experiences. Wishes are coming true and dreams are being fulfilled. Moments will be beautiful and magical. Don’t let indecision and fear hold you back. Do what’s best for you, no matter what other people think or believe. Don’t listen to your ego that can hold you back… be guided by your heart and let things flow. The time is now and your path is ready and waiting for you. All you have to do is make the choice to live it. You have the power to have everything you ever dreamed of. 

Ten of Summer – Spending time with your family and loved ones is critical to a rich and happy life. The people you call family may be those you are related to, or they may be people whom you have chosen. Either way, offering love and support to those closest to you, and accepting it in return, is very important. Make space for them in your life. It’s worth investing time and energy into your primary relationships. You can have the happy home life you’re seeking, filled with peace and emotional fulfillment. The couple from The Two of Summer Card have created a beautiful life for themselves and their children. The butterfly boat near the shores of Avalon means that their emotional currents will continue to evolve and thrive. Additional meanings of this card: A happy marriage. People you can trust. Relationships that last. Feeling emotionally content. Raising children wisely. 

Nine of Summer – This is a very magical moment! You have drawn the card of wishes coming true. Allow your heart to be filled with child-like wonder and awe, picture what it is you desire, and then make a wish! You may want to write it down on paper. Place the paper in a special place known only to you, and then release the “how” of the wish’s fulfillment to the Universe. Allow life to be playful! Enjoy the simple things. Go spend time with friends or family in lighthearted and uplifting activities. Have fun! A fairy godmother gifts a young maiden with her fondest wishes come true! Additional meanings of this card: Dreams fulfilled. The end of worry. Abundance and prosperity. Good fortune. Joyfulness. 

Two of Winter – Now’s the time to take action! Indecision has previously held you back, but this is the moment to trust yourself and move forward. Decision-making can sometimes be challenging but your intuition will guide you to the perfect choice. You may be torn between doing what you know is right for you and doing what someone else wants you to do. Chances are, this matter requires you to see your own needs. If you lack clarity, you can ask God, the Angels, and the Fairies to give you a sign, or just listen to your own spiritual guidance. Make your choice with confidence! It may be necessary to compromise with others in order to move forward. Don’t allow past concerns to keep you from attaining your goals. A little fairy boy is faced with a difficult choice. Both make music, but which would truly bring forth the song inside his heart? Additional meanings of this card: Feeling trapped between the intellectual and emotional. Overanalyzing the situation. Ignoring a problem in hopes that it will go away.

Seven of Summer – There are pros and cons to virtually every decision. The situation you’re currently in is demanding a choice from you, and procrastination is simply no longer an option. What you decide involves actions that may benefit you physically, emotionally, financially, intellectually, or spiritually. Recognizing that you always have a choice is a great realization about your personal power. However, it also means that you are responsible for the outcome of your choices. The moment to choose has arrived! You could make a list of every possible alternative and evaluate it, or you could ask God and your Angels for guidance. But the time to choose is now. Daydreaming can be a lovely way to get insight into a challenging situation… or it can be a way to avoid taking action. Make sure that your imaginings serve a productive and positive purpose. Make a plan to put your dreams into action, one step at a time. A fairy allows sunlight to shine through a prism, onto a bed of white roses. The roses indicate that his intentions are pure, but the prism shows that there are many possibilities. Additional meanings of this card: Wishful thinking. Meeting to regain focus. Overanalyzing. Too many choices. Receiving guidance to detox.
