A Stone Blessing…

Sometimes, we are gifted stones or crystals. Sometimes we buy them. The reason for buying them can be for all sorts of reasons. Sometimes, you just feel drawn to a certain crystal.  And that’s reason enough to buy one.

But if somebody gives you one for a particular reason or if you buy one for a certain reason, a simple and easy way to “bless” or “activate” or “program” the stone is to simply say: I charge and empower you to….

Bring me happiness and good luck. Bring me love.  Help heal my grief. Bring me financial gain and prosperity.  Ease my worry and anxiety.  Protect my pet. Guard my home and property. Bring clients/patients to my business.

Whatever it is.  This can also be done with jewelry.  I have a citrine pendant and earrings I wear and I’ve charged and empowered to bring me happiness and good luck.

Some say that crystals already know what to do.  That rose quartz already knows to bring love and encourage self love.  That turquoise knows to bring protection and healing.  That black tourmaline already knows to bring protection and shield from negativity.  I think empowering your stones and crystals  yourself creates a bond with them. A connection between you and the stone that is special and unique to you. Like a friendship or any kind of relationship with a person (or a pet). And those bonds and connections serve to guide and help us.  So too can our bond and connection with crystals.

Be open to what calls you…

Tarot Card Reading of the Week – July 29, 2018

The card in the recent past position is The Star reversed. This is the “wish fulfillment” card of the major arcana. So it could be a wish didn’t come true. Or hasn’t.  It can suggest a block to feeling happiness and feeling like a star.  That feeling of shining bright.

The card in the present energy is the Ace of Pentacles reversed.  Aces start a suit and the suit of pentacles is about money and finances. Also about career and job.  So there may be a delay or block to a new start with this in some way. Maybe a raise is delayed or a promotion. Or a financial gift doesn’t come. Or doesn’t come as quickly as you had hoped.  Just because it’s delayed or blocked right now doesn’t mean it will always be that way.  The timing may not be right and that’s why it isn’t happening.

The future card is the Seven of Pentacles upright.  Wondering if all the work and effort and energy is worth it.  What harvest has all your work yielded for you? Or how do you see it growing and developing?   So it’s a card of pondering the future.  The direction of your money or your job.

A little bit of stuck energy this week, perhaps. But we have a lot of planets retrograde (five), including Mercury which can cause all sorts of hiccups and delays.  There are times to act and do. And there are times to think and reflect. This may be a week of reflection instead of action.

Tarot Card Reading of the Week – July 22, 2018

The card in the past energy (or the energy we are leaving as we begin the week) is the Page of Pentacles reversed. Pages can  be children under the age of 10-12 or people who act like children.  Pages are also messengers.  This can be an earth sign child (Virgo, Capricorn, Taurus) or a message regarding money or finances or job or career.  It’s likely either not a good message. Or it’s about something not moving forward as you’d like.  It could also just be an irresponsible person around you somehow – perhaps at the workplace. Somebody not very grounded and stable, especially with money or their responsibilities.

The present energy is the Ace of Wands reversed. Aces start a suit and the suit of wands is about action and passion. Creative ventures.  Wands also correspond to fire sign energy – Aries, Leo and Sagittarius.  Which is interesting, because we just entered Leo season.  But this card can indicate a block or delay to the start of something new – something creative or something that you are passionate about. It doesn’t mean it can’t ever happen or won’t ever happen. Just that right now, for whatever reason, the path to start this new thing is blocked.  We have a lot of planets still retrograde right now – and Mercury is set to go retrograde this coming week as well. So astrologically speaking, it really isn’t  an ideal time to start or begin new things if you can help it.

The card in the position of the future is The Chariot upright. A major arcana card.  This is a card of moving forward and charging ahead.  Being in control of the direction of things.  As a major arcana card, it can speak to a significant area of your life or a specific endeavor that is important to you.  So what was a little stagnant or unmoving at the start of the week…seems to be taking off towards the end.  Or it could be that you just regain your footing and now know the direction you want to go in. Sometimes that’s half the battle. Once you figure out which way to go, then actually going that way is easy.

Tarot Card Reading for the Week – July 1, 2018

The card of the past energy (the energy you are leaving) is the Seven of Pentacles upright.  Waiting to see if hard work and energy is worth it. What sort of harvest it’s going to yield for you.  You’ve planted the seeds, done the work and put in the time. Now you’re waiting.

The card in the present energy is the Seven of Wands upright.  Two upright “seven” cards in a row, in one reading.  This card is about holding your ground. And that ground is the high ground, so you have the upper hand. Any struggle you are going through, is a struggle you can handle. So hang in there, you got this.

The future card is Strength reversed. A major arcana card – so it’s meaning and message is significant. Or can speak to significant events or energy. Not realizing your own inner power. This is not a card of brute, physical force. It’s about the inner perseverance and determination we associate with “inner strength.” We all have it.  Sometimes we lose sight of it or don’t call upon it. So you either have lost sight of it or you aren’t calling upon it.  Do both. You have this within you – you just need to dig deep and find it.

There’s a lot of intense energy out there. There are a lot of planets retrograde. Mercury will join the party a little later in July.  So go easy with yourself. And with others. We’re all going through it, in one way or another.

Be open to what calls you…
