The Pulse

The Moon is at 7 degrees Gemini. This moon is also called the "Beaver Moon" and also, the "Mourning Moon. In Gagan traditions, since this is the last moon before the winter solstice in the northern hemisphere, it was honored as a symbol of release and letting go. With Mars and Saturn energies showing up as heavy hitters in the moon vibe of today, I personally could feel ancient rage that had been held in my body for far too long slowly and diligently breaking free all day yesterday.

The word Liminal comes from the Latin word "limen" meaning threshold. It is a time between. From "what was" to "what is next." It is like a doorway. An opening. A void. Depends on how you feel it and what perspective you adopt as you experience this "not-quite-knowing-yet" period.

Astrology has been pivotal over the course of our lives for many years. All three of us have looked to the compass in the sky to help guide us during powerful transitions and sometimes deeply heart-breaking moments we were asked to move through. Our new Zodiac Collection is an invitation to Know Thyself. (This is also the theme of our free 2023 Holiday Guide.)

It has become quite clear to me that the the Cosmos and Mother Earth speak to one another. We humans land right in the middle of these two fields of endlessness. Feet on the soil, head in the clouds. Cells rooting into dirt to feel our connection and our place inside our body, while our dreams float like twinkling lights wishing to touch the mystery of it all.

Tourmaline formulates herself in every color of the rainbow. A kaleidoscope of healing energies that honor and help clear every chakra and then some. This brilliant gem holds its own electrical frequency and can be charged up by applying pressure and/or a tad of heat.

A small limited edition batch of some of the most pristine Large Herkimer Life-Force Necklaces are now available online. The tension has been building as we have been trying to get this size for awhile now and so many requests have come in for them.

Inanna is my go-to Goddess. Ever since I read about her many years ago, I decided that if I were to have a daughter, I would name her Inanna. I am in love with the way her name sounds and feels. And I am in enthralled, moved and activated by the symbolism of her story.

We felt a deep call from within to honor and choreograph with some of the most transformative and healing pendulum crystals we have in our hands at this time. The Pendulum serves as such a remarkable symbol for us, and for so many of you. To be honest, when we first began creating necklaces with these beautifully shaped stones, we were not fully aware of their history as being the locators of energy centers, portals, and ley lines. We did not hold in our conscious awareness, yet, that they served as tangible visible representations of our subconscious powers and incredible intuition. Now we know.

Last September on the Full Blue Super Moon in Pisces I wrote about the waters that we are made of leaking out of us in moments that subsist of not sadness or even joy, just a whole lot of feelings. I wrote about space and time and the High Priestess. I spoke about the essence of trusting in the process as best we can while also taking another grounded and actionable step towards our dreams. Dreams: the stuff Pisces is made of.

Yesterday we experienced what is called in astro language a "Venus Cazimi." This occurs when a planet is so close to (conjunct) the Sun that it is as if it is inside the very heart of the Sun. It is almost as if it is being Pac-Man gobbled by the exuberance of the center of our solar system. Or perhaps, more like being lit from within. This is how we come to see ourselves more clearly.

This collection is designed to support the light within you so you may shine and expand into the life you're meant for, one in which you focus less on "how" and more on the sound of your own heart beating loudly from within the cavernous brilliance that is you.

We created the Fairy Collection by listening to a loud, pounding desire that sprang forth through the art of following the Heart. In order to keep the creations flowing, we continuously had to check back in with our child-like imaginations and those check-ins brought those little ones back to life in many ways.

The Fairy Collection is an offering of sweetness encapsulated in adornments that honor the essence of the Fairy and Flower Realms. Inspired by the boundless inner imaginary worlds we create that become reflected in our outer worlds when we open our minds and our hearts.

I believe that the crystals carry epic wisdom and know the precise moment to start shouting. When a stone calls so powerfully to so many, there is something in the vibrational frequency of that mineral that is here to carve out a doorway in space and time that we are ready to walk through. It feels like no coincidence to me that this stone decided to be shared with you the week of 7/7/23, aka 7-7-7 portal where the Sun and Sirius (our spiritual Sun) come into alignment prior to Lion's Gate coming up in August.

In January of this year as mom and I were making our yearly rounds at our most preferred stone cutters on day one at the Tucson Gem Show, I was having a very hard time being present. Something was on my mind. That something on my mind was love and the script I was running was how horrible I am at it.

Last SUN-day was my Birthday! I hoped we would be able to create a piece inspired by this trip around the sun as an offering for you, but we were waiting for download to come through. Synchronistic interventions are my favorite, as I'm sure you know by now.

Herkimer Diamonds carry their name because they are known as the "diamonds" of the crystal multiverse.

The other day I wrote on social media about an intuitive hit I received on my morning walk. The voice said, "Look up the Sabian Symbol for today." I did not heed...
