Daily Stone Knowledge, Monday, June Sixth, 2016 Tektite

This is an interesting stone. It’s a type of glass created by the impact of meteors on the earth’s surface. As such it has some interesting properties. It is known as the stone of extraterrestrial energy and is often used to connect to other planets and stars or to travel on the astral plane.

Daily Stone Knowledge, Saturday, June Fourth, 2016 Green Aventurine

Green Aventurine is the stone of luck, abundance and wealth. Its added properties as a heart chakra stone are that of helping with emotional imbalances and issues. Use Green Aventurine to help you manifest new wealth, a job, or just carry a piece with you for a little added luck. Green aventurine is a type of quartz so it does have a very high vibrational energy. It is one that has to be cleansed and charged more often.

Chakras: Heart

Astrological Signs: Taurus, Virgo

Resonates to: Number 3

DIY Spiritual Cleansing Spray!

We all know we should cleanse our homes of negativity from time to time. Not all of us can burn incense, though! Personally, I take issue with most providers of white sage or palo santo due to the plants’ endangered statuses, and because I own a snake, smoke in general is bad news for his health. So what do I do? I use a cleansing spray. Cleansing sprays and smudge sprays from metaphysical stores can be super expensive, but making your own is easy and cheap. The base recipe requires:

    Filtered Water

    Alcohol (rubbing alcohol, vodka, any type of liquor will work here. Do NOT use beer/wine/malts)

    A Lemon/Lemon Oil/Lemon Juice

    A Spray Bottle (I found this one at Safeway in the travel bottles section)

Optional:

    Lavender Essential Oil (calms and purifies the air)

    Eucalyptus Essential Oil (attracts positive energy)

    Water-Safe Crystals (will include below)

Here’s what you do! Fill the bottle most of the way with filtered water. Add a teaspoon of alcohol, and either the lemon oil, juice, or skin of the lemon. I used lemon essential oil here, but you’re welcome to use whatever part of a lemon you like! Lemons have a long-known property of removing negativity and can be super uplifting. Give the bottle a big shake, and you’re ready to start! When spraying, imagine the spray “misting away” any negativity. Use whatever smudge or smoke cleansing prayer you might like to use as normal. I also added Eucalyptus & Lavender essential oils, quartz, black kyanite, and amethyst crystals to mine. Eucalyptus and Lavender smell REALLY BAD to bugs (for those of you interested). Particularly spiders! So this is a bug keep-away spray as well. The crystals I use: Black kyanite to remove negativity, amethyst to bring soothing energies, and quartz to amplify the properties of the oils and other crystals. You can absolutely add whatever you like to make your spray personal to you! Customization is the best part of DIY. Let me know if this spray works for you! Water Safe Crystals for Cleansing/Purifying/Soothing:

Any type of quartz (rose quartz, amethyst, aventurine, citrine, carnelian)

Shungite

Agates

Jasper

Bloodstone

Other Cleansing/Positive Energy Materials you can use:

Rosemary (not recommended for those with epilepsy)

Sandalwood oil

Salt

Cedarwood oil

Juniper

Rose water

Bay Leaves

Daily Draw: Saturday, June Fourth, 2016 Ten of Cups

Daily Stone Knowledge, Friday, June Third, 2016 Rose Quartz

Rose Quartz is one of those stones that almost everyone has. One of the most powerful heart chakra stones, Rose quartz centers on love, relationships and empathy. It is the stone of caring deeply about the people and the world around you. It is known to ease stress and tension, help overcome emotional obstacles and roadblocks, and can be used to ease away anger and jealousy.

Chakras: Heart

Astrological Signs: Taurus, Libra

Resonates to: Number 7

Daily Draw: Friday, June Third, 2016 XV The Devil

The Devil may be one of the more ominous cards in tarot, but I’m not a firm believer in the macabre interpretations of this card. The devil, to me, represents a cage. Today you may be tempted to keep yourself buried or to bite your tongue. Don’t. You do you; if others don’t like the way you act or think then they don’t deserve to be around you.
