    Aqua Aura

    May 22nd, 2010 | → Leave Comment Filed under Lore |

     Aqua Aura Crystals are natural quartz crystals from the Himalaya which have been infused with a lot of 24 Kt Gold in a process more similar to alchemy, resulting in the color of the finest Aquamarine gems, and therefore combines the properties of crystal quartz (freeing blocked energies, general healing, realigning the chakras etc) with the solar, regenerating energy of pure gold and, through chromotherapy the metaphysical characteristics of high quality Aquamarine. Aqua Aura is one of the most powerful stones to revitalize the throat Chakra and to enhancing one’s capacities of expression and communication; excellent to balance and relax the emotional body and particularly to reduce stress and negative emotions in general

     

    Desert Rose

    April 28th, 2010 | → Leave Comment Filed under Lore |

    Desert Rose is a variety of Selenite. It is a stone of the mind, as well as angelic stone. It is said to bring mental ability and clarity, as well as perception of all kinds, including intuitive perception. Desert rose is used in crystal healing to quiet worries and still the mind from distractions and disruptions. Metaphysically, desert rose is used to dissolve “programs” we have put upon our selves that are outdated or over-used. It is helpful for strength in meditation and affirmation. It can also be used for accessing past and future lives, will help to clarify your innermost thoughts and to expand your mental powers, will also assist in strengthening decision making and can help align the spinal column and remove energy blockages.

     

    Reiki Classes

    April 14th, 2010 | → 1 Comments Filed under Lore |

    Reiki class was actually really fun and informative. I actually completed and was attuned for level 1 and level 2 over a single weekend. We tried reiki out on eachother and learned about hand positions and how to do healing from a distance. The hardest part about Reiki is remembering the hand positions and what not. I also learned the symbolism used in physical and emotional reiki treatments. I don’t consider myself to be that good at the energy healing but I know with practice I’ll get stronger. At this point I’m content with performing Reiki so I am unsure if I will pursue master level (Reiki 3). Right now, I don’t feel that I need to. Mainly because I do not intend to train people. However, if I get to the point where i’m so unbelievable at it (ya right) I’ll more than likely continue on to 3. ;)

    You can actually start healing people right after your very first level. I’ve worked on my headaches with the Reiki techniques and even though they do work, I dont find the aleviation to be that long.  Granted I was working in short 5-10 minute intervals but, do I see a difference? Most definately.

    I will continue on with the practice and hopefully I’ll become really good at it. I find it very interesting so, as always, holding interest is a big thing, probably for anyone haha.

    I was looking around online and I found this neat little guide that helps with reiki hand positions. I’ll throw it up here for download so you can take a look at it and see if its something you may be interested in doing! If you are, I’d try looking around or even asking around the metaphysical shops in your area and see if anyone near you offers the training. I think its worth it. I really do. I’m happy with what I’ve learned and I do benefit from it. If you are in the Dallas area, Kayla @ The Silver Pyramid will offer classes from time to time.

    Mexican Fire Agate

    April 13th, 2010 | → Leave Comment Filed under Lore |

    Fire Agate is sometimes referred to as iridescent agate or rainbow agate. Fire Agate is said to be Arizona’s “Un-Official” State Mineral. Fire Agate is a cryptocrystalline silica with excellent hardness, about 7. This agate usually has inclusions of Goethite or Limonite which cause the stones to be iridescent.

    The gem is thought to be formed when hot water saturated with colloidal silica and iron oxide invades cavities in country rock and begin to cool.

    Fire Agate is known for its healing qualities as well as its connection to the energies of the earth. It promotes and enhances energy, including meditation, ritual, and spiritual healing energies. It may also be beneficial in healing problems with the stomach and endocrine system.It can also heighten creative visualization. It strengthens the ability and will to manifest one’s life purpose on the earth plane. Promotes energy and strength, especially while healing. Will help one discover the truth in a matter and to aid in accepting ones fate.

    Legend:  Fire agate is found only in the American Southwest and Mexico and wasn’t brought into commerce until after World War II. These agates have come from several areas of the Sonora Desert region of northern Mexico and southern Arizona.

    Occurrence:Mexico and the Sonoran Desert areas of Arizona and northern Mexico.

     

    Reiki Healing

    March 29th, 2010 | → Leave Comment Filed under Lore |

    Reiki means universal energy. It is a form of spiritual energy.
    Reiki balances mind, body & spirit

    Decided to go a new direction for myself. I have enrolled in Reiki classes to become certified in Reiki. I’ve always had a facination with stones, their vibrational levels and the energy points on the body. I have a few videos and a couple books that I’ve been toying with and I think that I’m ready to get some actual training. I can do some self treatment and I learned a couple hand techniques but I’d like to learn to do this professionally to help people.

    I’ll let you know how it goes! I start on April 10th.

    Prehnite is a very protective stone and can protect one on all levels. It strengthens the life force and generally increases and stimulates energy, while at the same time bringing powerful calming energies.  Prehnite is said to ease worries and restlessness of all kinds. It aids spirit communication through meditation or visualization, out-of-body travel, and is a powerful dream stone. Prehnite is also known as a stone of prophesy which stimulates inner-knowing.

    Healing the Chakras

    February 2nd, 2010 | → Leave Comment Filed under Lore |

    Been on quite the hiatus. Many personal reasons, but I know I’ve been neglecting the blog. I will start posting more as of today. I’ve been working with Chakra therapy alot and I’ve found alot of good resources on how to open problem Chakra.

    I’ve been forever fighting with my 3rd eye Chakra and when I attempt to work it open, it gives me headaches. None the less I’m still working at it. Anyway, if you feel you have blocks, I’ve found these sites most helpful. I’ve even found and worked out a couple other blocks with my heart and root Chakra that I didn’t realize I was having problems with. I’m feeling alot better, but if I could just pry that 3rd eye open a little more….
