The crystals I am working with for the week are Garnet, Black Tourmaline and Chiastolite. 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.

Garnet – A stone of regeneration and energizing. Boosts and revitalizes energy. A protective stone. Excellent for manifestation. It is used to ground one’s dreams in reality, bringing abundance, prosperity, and realization of those dreams. Builds one’s self-confidence, inspiration, and creativity. Considered a stone of increasing commitment, honesty, hope, and faith. It is a stone of positive thoughts which is said to dispel and relieve depression.

Black Tourmaline – A protective stone which removes, repels and blocks negative energies. Cleanses, purifies, and transforms dense energy into a lighter vibration. It is great for grounding. It balances, harmonizes, and protects all of the Chakras. Removes fear and boost self-confidence. Very calming. Those who face challenges from negativity, frequent worrying, and/or OCD can work with Black Tourmaline to help heal these issues. Carry a piece of Black Tourmaline in your pocket to increase physical vitality throughout your day.

Chiastolite – Called the “Cross Stone” because its cross pattern of different colors that occurs naturally. It is a stone of balance and harmony. Helps with mental/emotional balance, stability, enhances problem solving. Helps with adapting to change. Helps memory, and the ability to see all sides of a problem. Can empower and enhance astral travel. Chiastolite can enhance spiritual awareness and harmony, as well as being able to creatively think of new or different solutions to problems or issues.

The crystals last week were very “light” in their energy, and this week the energy of the crystals feel much deeper. It’s definitely reminding us of the need to balance the darkness with the light, to use our power for good. To balance our emotions, and expend our negativity in the most positive ways possible. Even when things seem out of balance, it’s important to do what we can to stay positive. The Garnet is so beautiful. Even with the ups and downs lately, the Garnet is here to remind us that we WILL feel revitalized and re-energized. If you don’t already, you will soon. We are still on the path to manifesting our dreams, even when that is hard to see. We are going through these hurdles in life to be able to remind ourselves, that we CAN do it. That we can achieve things we never knew we could. We can overcome obstacles. That we have what it takes. We can have confidence in who we are. We can love ourselves in our entirety. We can trust in ourselves and in life. Close your eyes and feel deeply what it would feel like if you were living your dream. Feel the feeling of driving your dream car, feel the warmth of the sun on your face as you visualize your ideal vacation, feel what it feels like to walk into your dream home, imagine how life would feel with your ideal partner. Feel it and know in your heart it is coming. Don’t dwell or obsess about it, as that takes away from your trust in the Universe. Ask for it, trust it will come and expect it to happen. See yourself as the person you want to be. How you get there is a minor detail that will fall into place on its own, when you hold those positive expectations of your life. Don’t even question your worthiness, ever! Have faith in life. Last week was about being able to release, so I’m reminded that we have to be willing to let go sometimes. Let go of our expectations of life. Don’t let the disappointments drag you under. Sometimes things get harder before they get better. Use the lessons you learn as a driving force to move forward in your life with confidence. There is so much beauty to come. Trust in that. If you hold on too tight to what you expect, that’s all the universe can deliver. If you truly believe there is no one out there good enough for you, that’s exactly the reality you manifest. If I can ask one thing of you today, it would be to sit down right now, close your eyes, and tell yourself you deserve things beyond your wildest dreams. Everything you can imagine, and even better. You are worthy as anyone else on this planet. I like to imagine the life of Beyoncé, and all the beauty and extravagance she must experience, and then I remind myself that I am equally as worthy as her, and I can make my dreams come true too. My dreams may not be anything like Beyoncé’s life, but it’s a good reminder that I am also worthy of any extravagance and wonder that I desire. Sit with this until you feel it in your heart, until you understand it as truth in your life. The feeling may fade, and you’ll need to remind yourself of this, but it’s very, very important to feel it in your heart. Better yet? When you feel it in your heart, feel that feeling expand through your chest and arms into current reality, feel it through your head expanding into the Universe, and feel it through your feet deeply rooted into the Earth. Feel that truth resonate with all that surrounds you. Along with the ups and downs as of lately, there have been many fears and anxieties arising. The Black Tourmaline is here to see us through those issues. It is here to clear us and help us get “reset” so that we can move forward feeling revitalized. The Chiastolite is our gentle reminder to find balance. To be able to receive as much as we give. To be able to release and let go, so new energy can come in. To be able to see the light side of the darkness. To find the good within the perceived “bad”. There has also been a lot of connections through dreams and astral travel. I didn’t have any dreams for months! I started to wonder what was going on! But this past couples weeks, I’ve been dreaming so vividly, almost every night. It’s a sign to me just how meaningful dreams are, and that they come when they are needed. If my dreams are a sign of what’s to come, it’s a whole lot of beauty, passion and honest, pure love. Let’s see what the cards have to add!

The Page of Wands is here to help. He is our friends and family that are here to help us through the hard times, and be of support to us. They are here to listen to us and validate us. The Hierophant reminds us again that not everything has to be challenging, or perfect. You already know what’s right for you, and you can trust in that. Life goes on, no matter what. You can relax a bit and go with the flow of life. You can be content in the now, with whatever comes your way. Even if things get hard… or messy.. you will get through it, and for the better. Even though you care about your reputation and what people think, don’t let it stop you from doing what is truly fulfilling or making the choices that are right for you. Life is short, and the people who truly love you and matter, will be there with their arms outstretched. It’s another reminder to go with the flow, allowing your intuition to guide you, and to follow your heart. Goose is a sign that it’s not always helpful to push. If you try to force your expectations on life, it creates resistance. Being grateful and appreciating what you have now helps you stay open receiving more. Gratitude is the number one key to positive manifestation. It helps everything fall into place with ease. Appreciate the small things this weekend, like sleeping in and relaxing. Have faith in life. Trust that it’s working in your favour. Go with the flow a bit more if you can. See the bigger picture, that there is a lesson within every experience. Relax! Take time to rest, you will not only heal your body, but you will find healing in your dreams as well.
