Metaphysical Vibrations of Turquoise

BLUE TURQUOISE

The Metaphysical Journey of Stones & Crystals, Blue Turquoise

There is so much to learn, read and share when it comes to the metaphysical properties of healing stones & crystals.  I have spent over 22 years reading and working with them. Today, I am only sharing little snippets of what I have learned.  If this little bit peaks your interest in learning more, I encourage you down this path. I, myself, have found it encouraging, empowering and enlightening.  Comforting too, but that didn’t start with and E!

Can Stones & Crystals Heal You?

People ask me all the time, can stones really heal you? My belief is; that stones and crystals can aid you in moving through dis-ease but no, I would say they are not a cure. I would not tell you to use them instead of going to a practitioner. I use them more like guides and I use them for meditation. You can check out my YouTube video, where I discuss this further.

BLUE TURQUOISE –

American Indians consider this a holy stone. It helps to lift depression, gives self-confidence and promotes endurance. It is wonderful for promoting spiritual attunement and unites energies of the sky and earth. This stone is usually associated with the throat chakra and will aid in clearer communication. Many believe that this stone’s profound power promotes tranquility and wisdom.

This stone resonates strongly with Sagittarius.

To cleanse your turquoise stone; once a month, place your stone in a bowl of hematite, then overnight recharge it by placing it among rock crystals.

Stone Charts & Custom Work

I also offer a custom service to my clients. The very unique service I offer, is the chance to have a completely customized piece of jewelry, that is unique and specific to only you.  I offer a service where I will run a stone chart on a client.  I take the month and day they were born, research that sign and then pose a few questions to the individual. Based on the weaknesses and strengths of their sign, coupled with their likes and dislikes, I design a piece of jewelry just for them, based on the stones that fall in their chart. I will then Reiki the piece, to close out it’s creation. Costs vary on time of research, types of gems and size of necklace. If you have an interest in this customized service, please feel free to email me at allthingsBAart@gmail.com

This stone is associated with the solar plexus chakra. To cleanse your stone; wash under water immediately after use.

I would not tell you to use them instead of going to a practitioner. I use them more like guides and I use them for meditation. You can check out my YouTube video, where I discuss this further.

Snowflake Obsidian–

Back in the stone age, Obsidian was used to make weapons and tools. It is not a stone but is naturally formed glass from lava. It is made from the same minerals as granite but due to the quick cooling process, due to exposure to air, the form never reaches the crystallization process. The little bubbles or crystals that do form during the quick cooling process, gives Snowflake Obsidian the beautiful patterns or inclusions that it has.

Obsidian has been used for tool making since 21,000 B.C.. It is thought to have been first discovered by an Ethiopian man named, Obsius, and was named after him.

Snowflake Obsidian is a “stone of purity”. It will help to balance the body, mind and spirit. It also will help to release negative ingrained thought patterns, allowing one to become more centered. This stone is also good for veins and skeletal issues. Use as a touchstone but not for long periods of time.This stone is will assist with clarity and logic. It is a stone that one will use to ground, and shield against negativity. It transforms the flaws from within, by using them to aid in useful solutions necessary for releasing them. This aids one in moving the body mind and spirit into a state of balance, helping to heighten our awareness of love and beauty.

Cleanse once a month under warm running water and recharge in sun among rock crystals

This stone is best to use on the hand and foot chakras

New Years Eve Ritual for 2024

January 1, 2024

New Years Eve Ritual

Another new years eve on my own. That’s the life you pick when you choose to live with a musician. I guess it bothers me a little bit, when I let myself think about it. However if I’m truthful, I probably dig it more, being alone on this night. I mean… yeah, I miss the kiss and that spark that flies in the excitement of that one moment when midnight hits and a new year begins and something magical goes down. I’m still not sure if that’s magic or expectation but whatever. Sigh. It’s thoughts like that, that lead you to creating your own majik. I’ve been sageing the house and doing a clearing/welcoming New Years Eve Ritual for that past 5 years and I can tell you, it’s always magical.

Lavender & Lemon Cookie Recipe With Lemon Honey Icing

I don’t know about you but winter kinda gets me down and really brings out the depression in me.  I felt this year, I would combat my doldrums by cooking with fresh herbs and flowers during these winter months. Lavender & Lemon Cookie Recipe brings my spring and summer into winter with me, to keep me company.

Well today, I was having a not so great day.  If you can believe it, I got a speeding ticket just five min.  after I received my new drivers licence. (a great omen) A driver’s license that took me three trips to the DMV to receive. These days,  I believe it’s harder to stay as a legal resident in this country than it is to get into this country. That’s another blog though, I digress. So having a bad day, I decided to sweeten my disposition and improve my attitude by inventing these lovely yum yums! They have been neighbor and husband approved and I hope you like them too. Enjoy.

BA’s cooking tips for the Lavender Lemon Cookie Recipe~

Spend the extra bucks and use a Meyers lemon. I lightly ice my cookies, so the icing recipe will actually do two batches of cookies. You can always put the extra in a container and save for a later time or just double up on the cookie recipe and do two batches at once, your neighbors and Co-workers will love you!

Iron Skillet Rosemary Chicken Recipe, Cooking On The Fly With BA

Iron Skillet Rosemary Chicken Recipe

Seriously enjoying cooking in an iron skillet! Tonight’s brainstorm, is Iron Skillet Rosemary Chicken with Lemon and Asparagus.

  • Thin coating of olive oil in bottom of skillet, Throw in the oven to preheat both the skillet and the oven. (370 degrees)
  • While that’s happening, slice garlic, clean and cut asparagus, clean and cut up chicken (fairly big sections) grate zest of lemon and go cut some rosemary.
  • Pull skillet, lay down the rosemary and garlic. (Save a few slices)
  • Cover chicken with lemon zest and put chicken on top of rosemary and garlic.
  • Drizzle a little bit of olive oil over this.
  • Fill in open spaces and top with asparagus and saved garlic slices.
  • Add salt, black pepper and three small pats of butter.
  • Cover with tin foil, put back in the oven and Cook at 370 for 30 min.

The Finish line, wrapping it all up!

  • Pull the skillet, check to make sure chicken is done. Squeeze half a lemon over everything, cover and put in for another 5 min.
  • Plate. ** I may have to move to a new vegetable. I always seem to get asparagus that seems woody. Is there a secret to buying that? ***

New Moon on the 13th ~ )O(  ~ Full Moon on the 27th

December’s New moon shows up on the 13th of the month and the Full Moon slides in on the 27th. The Winter Solstice joins us on the 21st and signals a change in darkness but not before it delivers the shortest day of daylight in 2023!  Because the month of December has the shortest days of sunlight it  allows us to enjoy longer periods of moonlight at night. After the solstice the days will slowly grow longer.   Enjoy the December moon energy my Luna Lovers!!!
