A Day With Snow Quartz and African Gold Pyrite

June 18, 2015 Rachel Vail
Black and White crystals go well together because they bring in light and reflect darkness in the spiritual body (and also go with absolutely anything!)  

Black and White crystals go well together because they bring in light and reflect darkness in the spiritual body (and also go with absolutely anything!)  

Today I paired the Snow Quartz Mini and African Gold Pyrite pendants from my etsy shop. Since I've been under the weather this week, I haven't been using my creative energy as much. Today it felt like my sacral chakra was about to explode with all the creativity I had built up. Quartz is a powerful energy amplifier so I wore it to enhance my mood. 

Clear Quartz can be dangerous to wear in that way. It will amplify negative moods, negative energies of the physical such as illnesses, or negative energies in the aura. It's hard to know what negative things may happen each day. The African Gold Pyrite helps protect against negative energies. With this and my creativity amplified by the Quartz, I was pretty much set for success. Because this crystal is snow Quartz and contains white as well as Clear Quartz, it carries properties of its own. It helped enhance my meditative state and mental clarity which are both essentials in the work I do.

Nothing bad got in the way of my day, I maintained a positive mood. I made three new pendants for my shop. Overall I think the stones worked very well for me today. It's hard to anticipate negative happening during the day without expecting negative to happen. However, negativity is important to be aware of. Ego exists. That is why it is important to wear a crystal that protects against the negative. It helps decrease the way ego  affects the one who wears it, reflecting the darkness that tries to influence the aura back out into the world.

A Day With Stillbite and Sodalite

June 17, 2015 Rachel Vail
Shoutout to my adorable neighbor for giving me that amazing rug!  

Shoutout to my adorable neighbor for giving me that amazing rug!  

Today I wore the sodalite and stillbite available on my etsy shop. I picked these two crystals out to see how they affected the cold I woke up with. 

I woke up sick today with a pain in my abdomen and a sore throat. I swear I get sick around this time each year which is so frustrating because it's the beginning of summer. So instead of being outside or on my porch, I spent all day curled up in a blanket inside. I put on the Sodalite because it is a stone for the throat chakra. My throat cleared up so nicely after this stone worked through the energy center. It remains a little sore but the sinus pressure is completely gone. 

I didn't put on the stillbite until later. Stillbite is excellent for physically removing toxins in your body. I decided I might need an extra detox boost for my body so I made some lemon cucumber water. This paired with my stillbite was a great combination. Stillbite is actually a great stone for bringing joy and peace to the wearer as well. I definitely felt the instant pink vibration of joy rush through my heart chakra before anything else. So at least if this stone didn't help remove toxins yet, it put me in a good mood. 

For cleansing, removing toxins, rehydrating, and working against inflammation, mix water with cucumber, lemon, and mint! (I didn't have mint hehe)

A Day With Blue Chalcedony

June 10, 2015 Rachel Vail
The color contrast in the pendant is so mesmerizing!

The color contrast in the pendant is so mesmerizing!

Today I am wearing the new Blue Chalcedony pendant. I chose this pendant today knowing the properties it carries. I needed something for my throat chakra today. I woke up in a very bad mood and with the way my day was going, I knew it would cause me to say something I would later regret. Even though I try to let things go that cause me discomfort or anger, it is easy to dwell on situations and build up unneeded anger and worry. Blue Chalcedony is a great stone for relieving anger, worry, and fear. Not only does it relieve the negative thoughts, but it is a great stone for bringing one into a state of optimism and trust. The throat chakra is balanced by wearing this stone so it allows for the expression of what we truly feel. Bringing all these elements together allows for peaceful, optimistic expression of thoughts, words, and actions - eliminating any concealed anger, fear, worry, doubt, etc. 

Throughout the day I watched my attitude change. It went from being annoyed that I had to clean my messy apartment, to being excited to have a fresh, clean space; being frustrated with the amount of work I had to do, to feeling excited to make some new pieces; feeling irritated and annoyed with the people around me, to feeling talkative and relaxed around the friends I see. My negative outlook on today turned around so quickly! 

I appreciate the optimism that this pendant brought me today. I am a firm believer in the law of attraction. The law of attraction is the theory that what you think is what you attract - so focusing on the positive will bring good things and focusing on the negative will bring the bad. For example: you're getting ready for the day and you are running late. You're speeding to work, worrying about getting pulled over - and you hear sirens. Just as you think your day could not get any worse - you spill coffee all over your new shirt.  All those moments you put in worrying, the universe heard your words. You attracted more negative to happen. Instead of thinking about how your day couldn't get worse, think about how it could get better. 

I am sure that without the optimistic energies this pendant brought me, my day would have went downhill, fast. Instead, I was brought optimism and because I was brought optimism I had the loveliest day. Thank you Blue Chalcedony!!
