The crystals I am working with for the week are Specularite, Labradorite and Ocean 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.

Specularite – Gounding, yet has a high vibration. It helps us identify our talents and put them to best use. Dissolves negativity. Balances the meridians and Yin/Yang energy. Assists mental functioning, memory and development. Calms the mind and brings inner peace. Boosts confidence and self worth.

Labradorite – A stone of transformation and magic. Clears, balances and protects the aura. Provides clarity and insight into your destiny. Attracts success. Reduces stress and anxiety. Increases intuition, psychic development, and esoteric wisdom. Helps with subconscious issues, and provides mental illumination.

Ocean Jasper – Increases expression of love in words and actions. Gently brings into focus the positive aspects of one's life. Brings relaxation and cooperation to the home or workplace. This powerful stone lifts negativity so one can fully appreciate blessings. Encourages a feeling of joy and increases optimism. Enhances your personal power, helping you understand yourself better, have greater self-confidence, self-esteem and self-worth.

First of all, I am so sorry that my readings have been so sporadic lately! Life's been a little hectic with summer, with my kids, and I also started an awesome new job! I need to get ahead of myself on my readings so I can stay caught up! Sometimes I start them and just don't have the time to finish! I've got my cup of coffee and the house is quiet, so I'm trying to take advantage of it and get some readings done. I was thinking about doing a monthly reading, and I still might, but when I chose the crystals just now, they felt like they were for this week ahead, so here we go! Hopefully I can fully complete this reading! 🙊😝

I started researching the meaning of the crystals and was distracted by my son, who LOVES my crystals. He is also fighting leukemia, and I never do enough Reiki on him. So I took a short break and did a good session on him. He loves it and says how the crystals feel so good. If you have never used a crystal, I highly suggest trying one, lay with it somewhere on your body, even for 5 mins, and you will feel it's healing. Anyway, normally when I do reiki, I try not to think of much and just let the energy flow, but today I felt very guided to pray. I prayed to Archangel Michael for our protection and to Raphael for healing. I surprised myself because I usually don't ask for protection, and it's also a theme with the crystals. I also felt his chakras become very balanced and clear. Watching Nicole Oman's reading on Facebook for this week, she talked about clearing using the Ho'oponopono – "I Love You, I'm Sorry, Forgive Me, Thank You". Repeat it over and over again to clear yourself of the past and things you want to let go of. Nicole also talked about how anxiety and depression are a physical representation of fear, and that instead of trying to repress it and hide it, we need to meet it in the eye and face it head on. We need to rise to it and conquer it, instead of letting it pull us under. We need to see the fear and move beyond it. It's time to illuminate the issues, and bring light to them, instead of trying to hide them (and ourselves) away in the dark. I truly believe we are in a period of evolution, and we are being encouraged to come out of our shells, and have been for some time now. We are being begged to have the confidence to shine our lights on this world. We have so much that we are here to do, yet we are hindered by the stress and anxiety of our fast-paced corporate consumerism culture. We are distracted by the things we believe we must do, like work and acquire all the things we believe should make us happy, eventually… someday? But the truth is we don't need any of it. All we need is this moment, and a choice to be who we are and to be happy. To appreciate each moment given to us, as they are fleeting. Relax a bit. Do the things you love and that make you happy and feel joy. Be optimistic, and share your joy and light with others. Even if something is bringing up fear or anxiety within you, know that it's ok! See it for what it is and know you will get through it just fine. Everything is always ok, and you have so many things to be grateful for! Let's see what cards will show up for this week!

Omg… these cards are so perfect, as always!! ❤️ My new job fell into place, as if by magic, and the New Life card is perfect. I also can't believe we talked about clearing and using the Ho'oponopono, and then seeing the Clean It Up card! New Life is showing us that anything can be ours, that it IS time to let our light shine. Anything you can dream of and want, can be yours. It's time to wake up and create a new life, the one you want to live. Clean up the things you have going on. Physically clean up your life, your home, your work space. Change your appearance or do something that makes you feel beautiful and aligned. Clean up your mind. Do your energy clearings, reiki and Ho'oponopono. The things you think about are what you are manifesting. What is it that you truly want? Make it happen. Make a list of what you need to do. Don't overthink it or stress, just make a list and start getting to work on it. It's important to plan, but you do not need to know how everything will turn out. Be someone new. And don't let fear hold you back. Face it, and walk all over it. See that it's only an illusion, and you can banish it with the light of your love. We are continually being reminded here that good things are on the way… Success, abundance, happiness… it's all ours to have if we choose love, light and positivity.

New Life –
Essential Meanings: Birth of new ideas; growth; opportunities; a breath of fresh air; life renewing itself.
The Oracle's Message: When spring awakens the world, joy and excitement can be felt all around and in your very core. Blossoms burst from the trees overnight, birds return home and sing their glorious song, and nature is full of promise. Miracles beckon all of us. This is one of those times in your life when new ideas inspire you and new opportunities bring you hope for seeing your dreams come true. All is well in your world, and you have the energy you need to feel renewed. Allow your heart to fill with enthusiasm. Let your light shine, for this is a time of good fortune.
Relationship Message: New energy enters old relationships, and new relationships are bursting with the sweetness and vibrancy only encountered when winter gives way to spring. This is a time to connect with others and share excitement, passion, and hearts full of joy. This card is a very auspicious sign with respect to love and partnerships in all forms.
Prosperity Message: You have every reason to be optimistic right now, as things seem to fall into place magically. New opportunities remind you that abundance is available to you. Delight in the bounty that begins to appear in surprising forms. Stay curious and know that your hopes and dreams are being fulfilled. It's as if new life suddenly infuses your projects, work, and creative ideas with the kind of electricity that crackles with exciting potential. Fortune is smiling on you.
Protection Message: You must acknowledge your inexperience and gently allow yourself to be like the delicate new bud opening. It's OK to admit you may not know something. You are at the beginning of things and haven't yet hit your stride. Be immersed in the newness of it all, and don't try to rush the learning process. New life has its own timetable for maturity. Be here now. Life loves you.

Clean It Up –
Essential Meanings: Getting to the core of a situation; freedom from a burden; cleaning house; sweeping away what is no longer needed.
The Oracle's Message: Ever feel so bogged down with emotional gunk that you can't think straight? Could you be surrounded by physical clutter in your home, also? To much work? Overwhelmed? Time to clean house! Every item out of place feel so bogged down with emotional gunk that you can't think straight? Could you be surrounded by physical clutter in your home, also? To much work? Overwhelmed? Time to clean house! Every item out of place natters away at you. Every unresolved resentment, every comparison to others that leads to a sense of lack, takes up energetic space. Every unpaid bill just adds up to an unnecessary feeling of being overwhelmed. Now is the time to free yourself by energetically cleaning house. Just do it! Make room for the miracles that are lining up for you.
Relationship Message: Time to clear the air, take a look at your side of the street, and say what's on your mind. Sweep away the old stuff so that a spring breeze can flow through with new energy. It's the perfect time to do an inventory of your dynamics and see what's yours, and what's not yours, to clean up the relationship. Everyone brings some baggage. Sort through what you brought with you and let go of what is no longer needed. Become unencumbered and your relationship will flourish.
Prosperity Message: Simple things like opening your mail, paying bills, sorting out your timetable, making lists, and getting organized is with this symbol means when it comes to your work. Make time for yourself, too. This card is a sign you maybe over burdened and overwhelmed. It's OK to say no. You'll prosper even more if you do.
Protection Message: Is it possible you may be focusing too much on other people right now? Trying to hard to be helpful? Does taking on what belongs to others make you feel needed or desired? Perhaps you think it's your calling to relieve people of their burdens, but what is the cost to you, and to them? Don't clean up someone else's side of the street. You're not helping by freeing him or her of responsibility. You're also not doing yourself any favors, and you just might be adding an even greater strain. You are loved as you are. You don't need to be needed to be loved.

Thinker –
Essential Meanings: Strategy; being analytical and logical.
The Oracle's Message: The ability to reason and strategize is the focus now. Take things at face value and follow the logical path. Your calculations will prove to be correct, for in this moment there is no deeper meaning than what is obvious. Things are exactly as they seem. You have all the information you need. Keep it simple and you will win the game of life you're playing right now.
Relationship Message: Love is not logical, but when you choose a partner, it is good to have things in common other than desire. This is the time to weigh the pros and cons of your partnership. If there is enough common ground, go for it. If not, there are other fish in the sea. Don't force it to work. And should others tell you who they are, take them at their word. Now is not the time to indulge in a fantasy. No matter what, in this case the facts are the facts.
Prosperity Message: Calculated action is called for now. It's important to sit down and plan a strategy. Focus on the steps you're going to take to clean your prosperous life. List are your friend now, so get out your journal. Write down what you're going to do today to signal to the universe that you're serious about attracting abundance. Your plans and strategies will yield wonderful results. Remember, you're most effective strategic partner is Spirit. You will win this game, and your triumph will be for the highest good of all.
Protection Message: You might be suffering from "analysis paralysis". Thinking has its place, but trying to figure everything out logically is not going to work right now. Your conclusions will likely be faulty, and you may act upon false assumptions that will get you in a jam. Give your mind a rest. Do something creative, exercise, or meditate. Soon you'll come to your senses and an "Aha" moment will bring new clarity.
