Mother's Day for me this year feels fortuitous and ancestral, with a coming to fruition of inheritance and much more than that. Some kind of coming into my own as a mother maybe. There is a feel in the air of protecting and nurturing our children - standing up for them, looking out for them, and helping them grow into the strong heart-warriors they should be. As spring beckons, there is a call to consider what kind of future we want. Is this year what we thought it would be? Can we envision a spring ten or twenty years from now? With our children - now adults - shaping the world for all? Are we doing everything we can to ensure they can reach that pivotal place? Are we feeding them the right ideals and values? The food that will nurture their minds and hearts in an open, strong, and loving way? And are we making our ancestors - who fought for our future - proud?

I'm thrilled to say that as well as the four already beautiful Larimar Pendants left in the shop, I have been working around the clock to bring you two brand new pendants, and three unique, rustic necklaces.

Have a wonderful Mother's Day and Spring Equinox, everyone! Keep your eye on the store for further additions throughout the week. If you subscribe to our Newsletter, you'll receive all the latest products in your inbox, as well as 10% off your first order.

I'm bringing you three brand new Green Calcite necklaces and one pendant. Green Calcite has long been a favourite stone of mine, and these pieces of rough stone, hung on leather, make truly rustic looking jewellery. Energetic properties of the stone:

Shungite is a black beauty. A graphite-like, carbon-based stone, it's reported to be over 2 billion years old, which is a mystery because carbon-based minerals only allegedly evolved after life on earth (the oldest known forest is only about 200 million years old). So ... how did Shungite get here? No one knows for sure, but it's said it was formed after a meteorite hit, forming a sea bed which became Lake Onega in Karelia, Russia (the only origin of Shungite). The Shungite has seemingly purified the lake, despite pollutants in it, therefore, Shungite is used as a purifier for water. You can leave it to soak in a glass before drinking the water. It's also known as an EMF detoxifier, so you can sit it on your WiFi, near your phone, or wear it on your person as a necklace. (Ref: The Crystal Bible, vol 3, by Judy Hall.)

My personal, empathic sense when first working with this stone: the first word that ever came to mind for me was MYSTERY (and I suppose that makes sense given its mysterious origins). Those searching for the mysteries within their own life (unknown family history, hidden secrets, etc) may well find Shungite a very helpful tool. In addition, I sense it will aid any ancestral healing work. You can probably tap into timelines with it, too - definitely past, and very likely future. Despite its black look, I actually feel very light and buoyant when I hold or wear Shungite. I feel quite happy, actually, so the healing of the shadow comes to mind. Transforming dark to light, low to high, dense to airy ... it'll help you find that equilibrium within yourself, as you need it and as you heal anything you are trying to heal at a soul level. It's a truly mysterious and beautiful stone that is new to me, and I will definitely be working with it, and wearing it often.

And this was very much the feel as I wired the first Piscean Crescent Moon pendant and the second. The energy weaved into the work, and this is how one does anything with conscious awareness - it's an awareness of the unseen around you and in you. The unseen was wired - with my movements, feelings, thoughts, and intention - into the work, creativity feeding creativity until the spell was complete. Life can be a spell. Spells can be woven into anything and everything. It's all about conscious awareness.

Moonstone will very much be a key stone to work with in 2021, I think. Its ability to help you (on the unseen level) find and seek to rebalance (heal) old traumas of the past is strong, and with 2020 bringing up a lot of old trauma for a lot of people, moonstone is needed. This stone in your pocket, or on your person, or by your bed, can - over the year - ease you into a better way to do things; a breaking of patterns and habits; and encourage new growth through the cracks in your heart. This applies to all moonstones, although I am specifically talking about the commonly-coloured variety - there is also green moonstone and black moonstone. I'll talk about those soon.

Moonstone is my latest collection of stone pendants, with more to be added soon.

White Onyx is so soothing and grounding, it's a little unreal. "Earth Magick" is the keyphrase, and this stone is a must for any workings with the earth and earth energies.

White Onyx helps you to feel at home with the ground beneath your feet. It helps you bond with your land, so is particularly helpful for someone who maybe hasn't settled into their new home yet, and / or can't. Carry with you through a house change, or emigration. It's a good aid if you're looking to integrate into your local community more, or are setting up local fairs and events, and so on. Equally, if you're studying the folklore of a local place, white onyx might lead you exactly where you need to go.

This stone is home away from home, and learning to love wherever you lay your hat.
