Transformative Healing with Malachite Crystals

Malachite is a beautiful green rock that stands out because of its many layers. It took me nearly three years to find one and it has been a favorite ever since.  I had  never felt my Aura buzz with electricity just by holding a stone in the palm of my hand 💚 The structure allows us to peel through layers of emotional guck so that we can focus on an issue, gently releasing the beliefs and pain that stand in the way of our personal growth and happiness. This stone works on all levels of your being.   Malachite is  a fabulous option if you would like to ground yourself and awaken your inner power by shifting mental blocks and emotional baggage .  From a personal growth perspective, the green stone helps us heal the discomfort and fear that often make us feel ungrounded in the  first place. When we are ungrounded, the manifesting chakras (Root, Sacral and Solar Plexus) lose their oomph, making it harder for us to set goals and achieve them. 👉...

Teaching Reiki to Kids

This Saturday I taught a Reiki kids workshop where I tossed out the rulebook and focused on how I actually use Reiki in my daily life - which is more intuitive and creative than you might think. I have taught a few of these workshops now, and it is always so much fun  💕 For starters I began by asking the kids if they had seen the movie  Frozen  - the sequel is out this week and a lot of them had just been to the movies. I explained that Reiki is similar to the blue light that the princess shoots out of her hands, but that instead of freezing people, it fills them with love and happiness. We can also use that energy to feel better, to rest and to help others.  With that we jumped right into the Reiki placement - the part of the class that activates the energy so that they can channel it too. In Holy Fire ®  Reiki classes this is done with a meditation that lasts nearly 30 minutes - most of it in silence, pretty much imposible for kids. So I gave them printouts o...

Lighting Candles with Magick

The past few years, I have been working with Fire, Earth, Air and Water to heal and balance my personal energy. This after I learned to read astrology charts four years ago and discovered I had virtually no Fire or Water in my chart. We need all four to function properly. Each of these gives us a different quality or skill. Fire gives us confidence, ambition and creativity. Water is all about intuition, emotions and personal relationships. Air is about communication skills, thought processes, thinking skills and how we see things. Earth makes us practical, grounded and materialistic; it relates to spiritual and physical wealth and how we experience it. When I mention that I have little Water in my natal chart, people are surprised (2 of 10 planets and luminaries).  My saving grace is Mercury in Pisces - the planet of the mind in a highly imaginative, intuitive and empathic Water sign. Nevertheless, I did have to put in a lot of work to connect with my emotions and intuition...
