| MARCH 2010 Featured Gemstone is CITRINE
|
In the last couple of months I have been personally focusing on what it is that I would like to make of 2010. I have so many Dreams for this year, and have been working hard to find peace and patience with where I am at, defining what it is I want, and going within to find the answers on where to begin. One steady conclusion that I have come to embrace is that there is simply no room for the new if I don’t clear some space in my mind and home to make way for it! Hanging on for dear life to old ideas, patterns and even old stuff! Spring is on its way! Its time to break free from the Chrysalis and get rockin! In the past few months I have written about stones to help you practice gratitude, release fear, embrace change and this month I would like to talk about a special little beauty that will help you clear some space in your home, mind and even your body. In addition to the wealth of tools we have available to us today to help us achieve this is the beautiful and enchanting gem and mineral kingdom. All to often we underestimate the nurturing and healing energies of these beautiful gifts from Mother Earth. With this in mind I would like to introduce you to this months featured Gem Stone, Citrine. ![]() Citrine is a variety of the Quartz Crystal. It ranges in color from a light yellow to a golden brown. Citrine is one of few stones that does not accumulate negative energies, and will actually dissipate and transform negative dense energy. When placed in each room of your home Citrine will clear the space of stagnant undesirable energies and will also provide a protective shield around the area of which it resides. It stimulates mental focus, confidence, clarity of mind, creativity and will power. It will transmute fear and aid you in finding resolutions to your most daunting issues. Citrine may be used to illuminate and activate the Root, Solar plexus and Crown Chakras and will help to align your physical body with your auric body. It will also assist you in clearing out murky areas in both the aura and physical body. When worn or carried it will provide a protective barrier around you and you may also carry a piece of citrine in your wallet, coin purse or place a piece in your cash register to promote and maintain wealth. Citrine has been used to promote circulation of the blood, aid in digestive disturbances, to balance the thyroid, activate the thymus and enhance visual abilities. As you can see Citrine is a wonderful stone for aiding us in making way for the new and improved! So when you reach for your dust rags, brooms and mops this spring, don’t forget to pack a little Citrine in your spring cleaning kit! Call on the energies of Citrine to help you make some room in your life. Here is to a beautiful budding spring! With Much Love, Charity Thompson

Once you have cleansed the crystals recharge them in the moonlight or place them outside for a few hours in the morning. Please note that there are fragile stones such as Selenite and Kyanite which should never be placed in water as they may and will eventually deteriorate.

The Holiday Season can be a wonderful time of the year, marked with love, we bask in the warmth and presence of our most cherished family members and friends. It is a time where emotions run wild, and create feelings that range from the beautiful, joyous, and peaceful, to feelings of stress, overwhelm, and outright chaos! The stresses may be born from finance troubles, shopping hassles, time for this, time for that, or even reunions with people with whom we have unresolved business with. All situations that often leave us feeling unbalanced and disconnected. The list could go on and on, but the Holiday Season also marks the “Beginning to an Ending” of yet another chapter in our lives.

| HELPFUL TIP: Crystals direct energy in different directions depending on their exterior geometry. The sphere or ball shaped crystals, and stones emit the energy of the gem in all directions equally. Spheres have been used to fill in and heal gaps in the Auric field. Meditate with a gemstone sphere that emits an energy that will serve best what it is you would like to achieve. It makes no difference whether the sphere occurs naturally or has been fabricated as long as the crystal is genuine.

| NOVEMBER 2009 Featured Gemstone is PERIDOT (per-i-doh)
|
| Most of us already know that it is an “Attitude of Gratitude” that brings forth abundance in matters of life. Whether we are seeking abundance, spiritually, mentally, physically, or even when seeking abundance in matters of love, relationships, and money, it is well known that gratitude is a main ingredient in obtaining what it is we desire most. It can often be difficult to see through the eyes of gratitude when we are faced with the daily challenges that life presents us with today. Gratitude is not something that we should search out side of our selves for, furthermore it is not in reaching out for what we desire outside of our selves that we discover Gratitude as a way of life. Gratitude as a way of life already lives and breaths in each one of us, and has unfortunately been dimmed dramatically by our on-going self inflicted fear that we experience when challenged in any of the areas of life as mentioned above. In addition to the wealth of tools we have available to us today to help us center our selves and squash this fear is the beautiful, and enchanting gem and mineral kingdom. All to often we underestimate the nurturing and healing energies of these beautiful gifts from Mother Earth. With this in mind I would like to introduce you to this months featured Gem Stone Peridot. pronounced (per-i-doh). Peridot, a name derived from the Greek word “Peridona” meaning something similar to “giving plenty”, “giving richness” or “plentiful”, can help one to receive abundance in all areas of life. Its color ranges from green, to yellow green. It emits a warm and friendly energy, useful in bringing about a sense of inner warmth and well being. Peridot calls us to examine the aspects of any given situation, furthering our understanding of changes that may be necessary for growth. It may also be used to bring about results in ones search when all avenues seem to have been exhausted. It allows you to become open to and accepting of intellectual pursuits in matters of love and relationships, aiding you in moving past hurt, thus furthering the understanding of your relationships. Peridot counters the effects of negative emotions alleviating stress, anger, depression, anxiety, and jealousy, all fear based emotions. It clears and activates the Heart and Solar Plexus Chakras increasing relaxation, comfort, patience, confidence and assertiveness. It has also been said to be the “Money Stone”, drawing money and opportunity your way. Peridot is an excellent healing stone, invigorating, strengthening and regenerating the body. Is has been used in the treatment of disorders involving the heart, lungs, spleen, intestinal tract, and has also been used during child birth to stimulate contractions and the opening of the birth canal. Peridot further more protects you from outside influences from effecting the balanced and cleansed structure. It should be removed from the body prior to any energy work, unless being used on the Heart and Solar Plexus energy centers. Like many gems with the exception of self charging stones such as citrine, peridot must be cleansed from time to time as internal disturbances will begin to effect to optimum condition. Cleanse your stone by placing it in the light of a full moon or if you are a Reiki practitioner or energy healer you may also Reiki or treat your gem to cleanse and recharge it. As you can now see peridot is a wonderfully powerful gem. Its uses are beneficial to all areas of life as it fosters emotional balance, security, and inner peace. Use peridot to aid you in clearing up the muck in your life, bringing forth the “Attitude of Gratitude” and personally witness your life transform. Mother Earth loves you and rejoices in your desire to heal, physically, mentally, and emotionally. As you heal your self not only do you heal others you also heal our beautiful Mother Earth. Abundance in all areas of life is yours for the taking!

Sit in a quiet place where you will not be disturbed and focus your attention on the stone, as this will attune you to its energies.
