The crystals I am working with for the week are Cat’s Eye, Shungite, and Sardonyx. 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 crystal to you.

Cat’s Eye – A stone of good fortune and good luck. It is said to bring serenity and happiness, along with optimism and generosity. It is used in emotional crystal healing to bring forgiveness, balanced emotions, and self-esteem. Cat’s Eye can enhance creativity and kindness. A stone of protection.

Shungite – It is an extraordinarily positive stone, and using it may bring you a variety of blessings. This is an amazing stone, and one that is beneficial to a healthy life. It is one of the only known natural material known to contain fullerenes, which are powerful anti-oxidants. The energy embodied within this ancient stone is said to absorb and eliminate anything that is a health hazard to human life, and it has active metaphysical properties with strong healing powers.

Sardonyx – A stone of protection and strength. Holds a vibration of happiness, optimism and confidence. Increases stamina, vigor and self-control. Helps you bring order to your life.

I would like to dedicate this week’s reading to my friend that recently passed away. I can definitely feel his energy with this reading. It is very tough losing people in the physical world, but I do take solice knowing they are guiding us from the great beyond. My friend was full of life, and he wouldn’t want anyone living their lives any other way. As sad as things can get, as hard as things can get, we still have to make the most of life and try our best to be happy. We can’t squander away what someone else would give anything for. We only have so much time, and we have to make the most of every day. In some ways, every time another person passes in my life, I feel even more protected, blessed, and watched over. We are being reminded that good times are still to be had. Fortune and luck is on our side. Be happy and optimistic! Share the wealth with others. Share a positive attitude and energy. We have to forgive people for past regressions and move forward in fresh energy. We have to balance our emotions, so that we can stand strong. We have to be confident and have positive self-esteem, so we don’t give in to negative coping mechanisms. Remember how much you love yourself, and all the reasons why you don’t want to feel unhealthy or ruin your life. We can’t be hard on ourselves anymore. Love yourself enough to make a better choice. We are being blessed with so many things… abundance… creative energy… opportunities… love… We don’t want or need the negativity anymore. You have the power to heal yourself and have a happy life. We are being protected now, and being assisted to stay strong through challenging times. The only way we can make it better is by being happy and loving ourselves and our lives. Make sure you are in control, and making the best decisions you can to get your life in order and make it amazing. Let’s see what the cards have to add.

Oh my gosh, these cards are so beautiful. We have the endurance to get through these times. We have to have the strength of a rock. Even as hard as we can be sometimes, we always have cracks of light. We always have a place we can grow from. A beautiful tree can grow from the hardest place. Everyone has good within them. The magical stars in the sky on this card mean multiple things to me. They are our Ancestors and loved ones who have passed on to the Spirit world, shining down upon us. They are magical opportunities and blessings in our life. There really is so much beauty if you are willing to see it. There is so much success to be had if you are willing to pursue it. We have to stay grounded through these times. We can’t let our mind carry us off to places of negative thinking and ego. Sometimes, the only thing we can do is get through it. “Everyone knows a rock when they see it” the book meaning says, and I feel like this is perfect for my friend because he was a rock in many ways. Rocks also can have treasures hiding inside them. Sometimes they have to be cracked open. Rocks also get shaped over time by outer elements that contribute to what it becomes. Rocks hold energy. If you find a special rock, know that it’s meaningful now. Feathers are also significant now (which is funny because I posted a pic of a Feather I found on the day he passed). Remember that love is flowing through you and to you. No matter what you’ve done, no matter what other people have done, give love anyway. Gather your inner forces and love as much as you can. It’s easy to love people when they act perfectly.. the true challenge is to love them even when they don’t… and to love yourself when you don’t. The Feather is our connection to The Creator. This is the connection between us and Spirit. The love you send out into the world will come back 100 fold. Place your prayers into the Feather. Smudging is helpful now too. My friend was known for being strong, and he is sending all his friends and loved ones strength now. Be in awe and be inspired to reach for greater heights. Face your challenges and keep climbing. This card is asking you to stay strong from outside influences and to be true to yourself. Be a mountain of strength and hold your head high. “Be that rock of strength that you are capable of becoming”. The solidness of your resolve will pay off in the future.

The best way to honor someone’s legacy is to make the best of your life.
