The crystals I am working with for the week are Puddingstone Jasper, Opalite, and Quartz. 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.

Puddingstone Jasper – Great for stress relief. Calm and nurturing. Helps with anxiety, reducing nightmares, and calming the mind for better study habits. Prevents tissue deterioration of organs and muscles, and strengthens the immune system. Promotes body balance.

Opalite – Harness your personal power. Increases self-esteem and self-worth. Unleash your inner strength. Calming and soothing. Connects you to the Spirit world. Balances energy and removes blockages. Heals emotions. Clears trouble from your heart and creates peace. Resolves hurts by helping you to let go. Offers compassion, kindness and gentleness. Promotes a positive outlook.

Clear Quartz – A power stone. It has been called the “Universal Crystal” because of its many uses. It enhances energy by absorbing, storing, amplifying, balancing, focusing and transmitting. It channels universal energy. Quartz also enhances thoughts, as they are a form of energy. Because it directs and amplifies energy, it is extremely beneficial for manifesting, healing, meditation, protection, and channeling. Due to its ability to balance, quartz is excellent for harmonizing and balancing one’s environment. Quartz is also good for energizing other crystals. Quartz is a stone of clarity which dispels negativity and clears away negative energy. Quartz enhances spiritual growth, spirituality and wisdom. It can also help particularly with concentration, studying, and retaining what one learns. Physically, it protects from negative energy. It is a very good stone for astral travel, manifestation, scrying, channeling, dream recall and dream work.

There has been a lot going on lately. People are very busy with work and school. This week is really about stepping in to your full power and potential. Just because things are busy, doesn’t mean you don’t have a little bit of time you can carve out for self-care and stress relief. It’s a perfect synchronicity that I just finished watching the latest season of Queer Eye, and it was the perfect reminder of the care we should have for ourselves. I just love that show… those men are doing some wonderful things in this world. This week, you need to take little moments of joy and stress relief for yourself. Take care of yourself. Maybe meditate, book a massage or even go to the gym. There is a big message here about taking care of our bodies. We are going to have some renewed energy with spring, so use it while you got it! We need to find all the strategies we can to help ourselves stay calm and relaxed. This is how you combat anxiety. The busier I get, the more anxious I feel. Find ways to clear your schedule and do things that make you feel happy and relaxed. Today is St. Patrick’s Day, and we have a Super Full Moon in Libra and Spring Equinox in a few days, this is a time of very amplified, fresh, lucky energy. There is so much opportunity right now, make sure you are putting yourself out there to be seen. This week is about knowing your self-worth. Truly knowing what you deserve and being relentless in the pursuit of your own happiness. It’s about removing blockages that keep you stuck in old patterns. As a perfect example, this week in class, I was talking with another student about luck. She was saying how unlucky she is.. and I could literally feel the bad vibrations those words were giving off. I used to think that about myself all the time.. my sister was always the one who would win stuff! Now, I’ve stopped saying that to myself, and I know how truly lucky I am. I know deep down that God has blessings waiting to surprise me around each corner. I more than think it, I know it to be true and trust it with my full heart. I believe this is truly the key that has unlocked so many blessings for me in the past 5 years… and now I often win stuff! I’ve changed the way I look and think about myself, and it truly is magical. Let your hurts be healed… see yourself as whole, and magical, and amazing. Live the best life you can. I don’t often use my Unicorn cards, but whenever I do, they make their energy known. I knew when I found this Opalite Crystal this week, that the Unicorns definitely have a message. Let’s see what the cards say!

This is why I love cards. I flipped the first card and was like, hmmm, I don’t know how that will fit in? Then I flipped the second card, grounding, and I laughed because grounding was a word I wrote down before I even started, and I didn’t touch on with the crystals. It’s like a reassurance that Yes, there is a message from the Grandparent Card that someone here needs to hear. I know I can trust whatever these cards have to bring up, and I know the message they want me to share with the Grandparent Card. What changed my life 5 years ago, and helped me to see the true beauty in myself, was a Mediumship Reading I had. Not only did she tell me about my beautiful dreams and aspirations, she connected with my Uncle I lost to suicide when I was 15. He wasn’t just my uncle, he was my Godfather, my friend and kindred spirit. She connected with him and knew things that nobody knew but me… moments that weren’t even spoken aloud, but were felt. What I’m getting at, is that our loved ones are truly around us always, supporting us and watching over us. The best part is, you don’t have to do anything special to communicate with them. A loving thought, a heartfelt note, even a simple feeling, they will know. They know our inner motivations and who we are at our core. They see what we go through. They always love us and want the absolute best for us. This was the greatest gift my Uncle could’ve given me, to find my self-worth and see how much I truly have to offer to this world. Without that reading, I wouldn’t be healing myself, and I wouldn’t be here doing this reading for you all. Talk to your loved ones who have crossed over… treat them as if they are still near, because they are. They are so proud of how you have gotten through everything, and for everything you have accomplished and are achieving now. In the Spirit world, we have access to any soul we are connected to, and your family and loved ones are always close to you. Their love is helping you right now. They want you to fully appreciate your true self-worth. They want you to make the most of your life. They love to see you taking care of yourself. I love how the Tree Card is talking about balance between Heaven and Earth. It’s confirming the very real connection we have. It’s reminding us of the balance we need within. Giving of ourselves, but more importantly, being able to receive. Standing firm, yet expanding into newness. I love the gems that adorn the tree leaves, a symbol of your true beauty to unfold. This is about being calm, centered and balanced. Some great ways to get grounded: Spend time in nature breathing deeply, place your hand or back to a tree, or visualize roots coming from your feet all the way down to the center of the Earth. Allow yourself to be filled up with good energy. I am excited to be using this new astrology deck I got, and The Fifth House Card is about the best things in life. It’s about using our creative talents that make us feel proud or special. It’s about having fun and pursuing hobbies. This is about enjoying the delights of life. Letting your inner child laugh and run free. This is very much a card of romantic energy, very fitting for spring time. Enjoying the wonderful things in life, let’s us know who we are, and gives us a sense of happiness, personal power and potential. It makes us enjoy being alive. The cards are saying you should love yourself and release your joy and passion for life. There is so much potential right now… I literally can’t stress it enough!! So much opportunity and potential. Create and let your creations be seen. “All you have to do is believe you are truly worth it.” Really. That’s it. The magical key to happiness lies in your beliefs about yourself. Believe the best, most magical, most lucky things about yourself!!
