Crystal Properties
RHONDONITE- finding and sharing gifts, awareness
Element: Fire
Dear Student endlessly seeking new knowledge before putting the old into action,
It’s time to STOP and practice what you have already learned! Rhondonite helps divert your quest for the novel and attention-grabbing by bringing your latent skills out of the dusty basement to remind you that you are worthy and capable of making use of this body of knowledge. By settling and calming the lower chakras, rhondonite helps you feel more centered, aware, and ready to hone your skills and present your gifts for the greatest and highest good of all!
ROSE QUARTZ- Self-love, release, emotional healing
Element: Water
Typically considered THE stone of romance, rose quartz’s true power is in promoting self-love. Balm for the soul, it enables you to release repressed emotions, life-long negative conditioning, self-degradation, and grief into the flow of love. “Only when you love yourself can you truly love others”. So many of us learn to live in fight or flight mode, closing ourselves off from the divine. Rose quartz strengthens the heart center to enabling a current of unconditional love from the universe. It delivers that love into your dense physical plane, helping you to KNOW deep in your heart that you are loved infinitely and completely…. Love is life, and life is love!
RHODOCHROSITE- Inner child, true purpose, heart healing
Element: Fire
Rhodochrosite is the channel through which the higher chakric energies can be brought down to ignite and empower the lower chakras in loving harmonic union. By asking you the question, “What was it that you LOVED to do as a child?!”, this ally takes you by the hand back to a time where your delight, creativity and precociousness flowed more easily and naturally. Sink into this remembrance…. this sweet reconnection may help identify your soul’s purpose and give you back the conviction to put it into action. Rhodochrosite will also ask, “What HURT you?”, gently urging you to bring forth those early hurts and traumas to be leaned into, FELT, and transmuted. When the heart’s foundation becomes strong and clear, just as it was upon birth, one can move forward in compassion, courage and joy. Championing your inner child in safely and love, you can truly honor and love yourself, here, NOW.
BLACK LAVA- Strength, grounding
Element: Earth, Fire
With its porous surface, lava makes a wonderful diffuser for essential oils! Just a drop or two of oil on the bead will allow for an intimate and therapeutic release of aroma! Rebel? Because nothing is perfect and I dig a little asymmetry in life! I often include at least one in my malas…placed randomly up by the neck so its warmth activates the scent!
Lava’s metamorphosis from churning magma into a cool solid state lends to the energies of strength and stability. Lava’s lightness of weight reflects its ability to ease anger and hot temperaments. But don’t underestimate the fire energy that still dwells within this stone! This ally provides courage and resilience, stokes your creative fires, and renews vitality .
KAREN HILL TRIBE SILVER BEADS-In search of independence and prosperity, the Karen people fled the Burmese military over a century ago and settled in large refugee camps in the northwest mountains of Thailand. Traditionally farmers and very spiritually connected with the land, the Karen prefered to live close to the natural world, terracing fields for rice and raising their own pigs and chickens. In the beginning, they found it hard to make ends meet and many found themselves turning to prostitution and the drug trade. In the 1970’s Thailand’s Royal Family initiated a project to provide alternative sources of income to the hill tribes in this area based on their traditional arts. Due to the Karen’s history of working with silver, silver experts were sent to help them hone their skills and become master silversmiths. The Karen people have long been wearing the traditional silver jewelry that they make by hand using methods that have been passed down for centuries. The Karen people hand forge the rudimentary tools and stamps that create such exquisite beauty… the essence of the natural world around them harnessed within each bead, charm, pendant and strand. Working assembly line-style, they create floral patterns and various symbols that draw on their inspiring beliefs of harmony with nature. Only by using high-purity silver (up to 99%- alloyed with copper) can these tools sustain hours of use without breaking. Each detailed component is painstakingly created by hand from 99.9% silver ingots. The solder they use to fuse pieces together is what prevents their metal work from being close to 100% silver. The ingots are flattened into sheets, which is then cut, shaped, molded, soldered and stamped into the finished item. Each piece of Thai Silver has its unique, handmade characteristics and carries its own silent story of the artisan family who created it.To the Karen, wearing silver still equates to wealth, status and spirituality within the tribe. Wear YOUR Karen Hill Tribe Silver knowing that it helps to ensure their financial security!
SIVER-PLATED BEAD CAPS AND SPACERS
As always, I encourage you to view these descriptions of the properties of crystals as a general guideline ONLY. The healing properties of crystals, intuited by many different cultures around the world, have been passed down through the ages. Modern mystics have taken these teachings and put their own anecdotal interpretations on them as well. The descriptions below are a conglomeration of this subjective information as well as of my own experience with crystals in both my healing and meditation practice. BUT…how a crystal or stone effects a person is completely individual to THAT person! While many people do experience similar effects from certain crystals and stones, what a crystal presents to you may be completely different from how it presents to someone else. Get to know the energy of your mala, crystals, and/or stones and how it informs YOU by working with them consciously.
