Podcasts about Hematite

June is ushering in a powerful energetic portal, accelerating and magnifying time in ways that challenge our typical perception. This month invites you to go within and ask: "What is the energy teaching me right now?" With Saturn in Aries until the fall, we're in a crucial "dress rehearsal" for a new phase of personal identity, courage, sovereignty, self-expression, and our will to live. If you feel a spark but are unsure how to act, slow down. Stillness is where the answers lie. As the Summer Solstice approaches, harness the vibrant energy of the sun to cleanse, clear, and illuminate your inner world. Consider the liberating prayer: "God, relieve me of the bondage of self." This "bondage of self" is where fear and outdated patterns keep us small and limited. The 6 and 9 energy in June is potent, subtle, and can be manipulative if not approached consciously. It’s potent because it connects you to your deepest, soulful truth—the insights you share with no one else. This combination highlights themes of wisdom and service. Prioritize being of service to yourself so you can truly serve others. The 6 and 9 is an intuitive starting point for attuning to higher energetic frequencies, requiring deep listening and discernment through experience and awareness. Throughout June, pay close attention to your energetic frequency. Pay attention to how spaces and people impact your energy. Notice what weighs you down and actively detoxify it so you can live more freely, happily, and easily. Key Dates in June: June 6th: Venus Enters Taurus – Amplifies connection to the material world and sensual pleasures. A wonderful time to engage all your senses and embrace pleasurable experiences.

In this mystical guest episode, Emily interviews Donnie Soddu who is a shamanic practitioner and the founder of High Light Rituals, a fine jewelry brand infused with healing energy. Her work blends shamanic practices, crystal healing, and deep energy work to help people clear blockages, find clarity, and deepen their healing journey. She serves as a bridge between the mystical and the practical—helping people connect with their energy, trust their intuition, and bring more intention into their lives. Emily and Donnie dive into a conversation about shamanic healing, intuition, and finding your magic through the help of your ancestors and their wisdom. We learn about Donnie's Aquarius energy and how that influences her work as a mystic, a creative, and a healer. Donnie shares how she began connecting with her own gifts by connecting with a female ancestor and how that opened a powerful portal for healing and growth. Donnie shares her thoughts and perspective on being a woman of color in the spiritual space and how that's inspired countless clients to embrace their own authentic selves and be proud of their unique magic. Donnie shares her insights and perspectives on sharing your authentic self with the world and getting comfortable with coming out of the spiritual closet. We also learn about her fine jewelry brand, High Light Rituals, and how Donnie works with crystals to manifest your intentions into physical form and beautiful jewelry. This episode is for you if you are a curious, unconventional, creative soul looking to embrace your authentic self and find your unique combination of gifts while connecting with your ancestral wisdom and heritage!Donnie also recommends: the crystal is ancestralite for ancestor connection. Ancestralite is a banded stone with layers of Hematite and Red Jasper. It's a powerful tool for shadow work and inner child healing, helping you trace the roots of your beliefs and understand how your past has shaped you. You can use it to work through old wounds with clarity, courage, and deep ancestral support.Connect with Donnie:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lightnessbydonnieHealing Sessions: https://www.lightnessbydonnie.com/Jewelry Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/highlightritualsJewelry Website: https://highlightrituals.com/Use code EMILYTHEMYSTIC for 15% off your order! — Get a FREE month of the Emily the Mystic Membership!

Subscribe, rate, review, & share! --- CCP Blog - Episode 9 How to Clear Emotions and Energetic Imprints from Heirloom Jewelry Have you ever received jewelry that was passed down through your family? Or, maybe an engagement ring given to you by your spouse? Or, diamonds from an estate sale? Or, jewelry from any old collection or with a mysterious history? Stones, crystals and gems pick up energetic imprints like emotions, beliefs, programs, conditioning and karmas from those who wear them. If you want to clear those imprints from your stone and go forward without extra baggage, this episode is for you. I'll share an easy ritual that will clear the imprints in your stone + the ones stone I use to do the clearings. It feels good to wear your jewelry free and clear of old energy! Jewelry has long been cherished not only for its aesthetic beauty but also for its deeper connection to emotions, beliefs, and memories. However, have you ever considered that the stones within your jewelry might carry energetic imprints from their past wearers? In this blog post, we're going to explore a powerful method for clearing these energetic imprints using hematite, a stone that holds a unique connection to the Earth's energy and our own ancestral ties. Unveiling Energetic Imprints: Jewelry can hold more than just physical beauty; it can also store emotions, beliefs, karma, and ancestral connections. Think of that heirloom ring passed down through generations or the necklace that once belonged to someone special. As we cherish these pieces, we unknowingly form bonds with them. In today's fast-paced world, understanding the significance of these connections is essential. Embracing Multidimensionality: Before diving into the process, it's important to shift our perspective. We are not just linear beings experiencing a linear existence; we are multidimensional beings engaged with lifetimes, timelines, realities, and dimensions beyond our current understanding. When working with stones, we're actually tapping into various layers of existence, carrying a tapestry of experiences and emotions. Hematite: A Portal to Transformation Enter hematite, the star of our clearing process. Hematite is much more than a stone; it's a conduit to the Earth's energy, a representation of source energy, and a holder of ancestral memories. Its magnetic properties allow it to connect with the Earth's magnetic field, making it a bridge between dimensions. The process begins by crafting a hematite circle. The number of hematite pieces you use carries significance—opt for 5, 8, 16, or 36 pieces to harness their unique energies. Placing the jewelry within this circle creates a portal, inviting the spirit of the Earth to engage in an energy exchange. With the circle established, call upon the Earth's spirit to assist in the clearing process. Request that the Earth clear the jewelry of any energies that are no longer needed—emotions, imprints, karmas, or conditioning. This is an opportunity to release attachments and make space for renewal. While the Earth is a master at clearing, it's also an expert at infusing positive energies. Invite the Earth to upload or charge the jewelry with energies that serve your highest good. This could include frequencies, codes, and blessings that you may not even know how to articulate. Trust the Timing The timing of this process is as individual as the experience itself. Tune into your intuition to decide how long the jewelry should remain within the hematite circle. Sometimes, what you need to hear might guide the duration, aligning with your personal growth journey. As you conclude the process, consider leaving a small offering as a token of gratitude to the Earth. This could be flowers, a drop of honey, or any symbolic gesture that resonates with you. Remember that this ritual is a mutual exchange of energy. Special Note for Opal and Pearl: Certain stones, like Opal and Pearl, are highly empathic and can easily absorb energy. If you possess jewelry with these stones, it's especially important to engage in this clearing process, allowing the stones to release any imprints they may have absorbed. Now equipped with this profound knowledge, consider sharing it with others. By raising awareness about the significance of clearing energetic imprints from jewelry, you empower individuals to forge stronger, healthier relationships with their cherished stones. Incorporating the practice of clearing energetic imprints from jewelry using hematite is an invitation to honor the intricate interplay between our multidimensional selves and the energy of the Earth. As you embark on this journey of transformation, you'll not only enhance your connection with your jewelry but also deepen your understanding of your own journey across lifetimes and dimensions.

Repair with these 3 Stones. Embark on an extraordinary metaphysical journey in Episode 8 as we delve into the incredible power of three remarkable stones, capable of repairing holes in the aura and mending leakages in the body's energetic protective layers. Gain valuable insight into the circumstances that contribute to these vulnerabilities and the spiritual and physical experiences they may entail. Explore the fascinating workings of each stone, also uncovering an array of bonus options to consider. And prepare to be astounded by the ONE automatic solution that fills and restores these energetic voids, effortlessly. Spotting the Need for Repair In various circumstances, individuals may require assistance in healing their energetic field. Situations where ceremonies or rituals were not adequately tended or conducted without proper preparation can give rise to these vulnerabilities. Travel, particularly to significant locations or during intense experiences, can also contribute to the formation of these energetic holes. Initiatory experiences, trauma, abuse, substance abuse, medical trauma, and accidents are additional factors that may leave individuals with openings in their aura and energetic layers. By recognizing the signs exhibited by those in need of repair, such as symptoms of PTSD, memory loss, confusion, fear, weakness, and difficulties in decision-making, we can gain a deeper understanding of the profound impact caused by these energetic voids. 1. Hematite Botryoidal Hematite is my first choice and primary stone. Iron emerges as a powerful element capable of filling all holes and acting as a source energy. Hematite, an iron oxide stone, plays a crucial role in repairing and grounding the aura. Its weight provides a sensory element, reminiscent of a comforting weighted blanket. Magnetite, another iron-rich stone, offers magnetic properties that can be harnessed in the healing process. Additionally, certain iron meteorites can be used effectively, although caution must be exercised to ensure the absence of detrimental energies. Hematite, with its innate grounding energy, enables automatic healing as the holes naturally begin to fill. 2. Rhodonite Rhodonite is my second choice and my assistant stone in the formula. Characterized by its pink and black composition, Rhodonite possesses remarkable wound healing properties. As a manganese silicate, it fills and holds the heart's energy, much like iron does for blood. Rodonite also contains calcium, providing a skeletal structure upon which growth and progress can occur. The silicate component harmonizes and regulates the stone, making it an essential assistant to hematite in the healing process. Its origin story, in which manganese-rich sludge fills cracks and fissures, solidifies Rodonite's association with filling, mending, and repairing. 3. Opal Opal is my third stone choice. It's also my transformer. It marks the timing and says, let's create new beginning, a new phase of healing. With its yin energy, Opal symbolizes filling, holding, and repair. Formed when silica-rich sludge hardens within cracks, veins, and holes, opalizing materials such as seashells and wood exemplify its restorative properties. Opal fosters hope and signifies the start of new beginnings, making it a valuable addition to any healing formula. Precious Opal, with its mesmerizing play of colors, amplifies the transformative nature of this stone, creating an atmosphere of miracles and rainbow-like hope. Honorable Mentions In addition to the three primary stones discussed, there are several honorable mentions worth exploring for their healing properties and contributions to repairing the aura. Kyanite Often referred to as the "collagen of stones," acts as a bridge, filling gaps and connecting fragmented elements together. Its ability to mend situations, such as leaky energy flow, makes it an invaluable component in repairing and harmonizing the aura. Kyanite's blue variety is particularly effective in aligning all chakras, facilitating communication between different energetic layers. Mica Commonly associated with protective qualities, focuses on the membranes surrounding the body. It supports the strengthening and rebuilding of these energetic layers, acting as a shield against external influences. Mica's reflective nature helps to deflect negative energies and maintain the integrity of the aura, promoting overall energetic well-being. Sphalerite A powerful crystal known for its iron content. With its remarkable strength and the presence of zinc, sphalerite possesses the ability to effectively fill up these energetic holes with its iron properties. Additionally, the stone carries a subtle touch of sulfur, imbuing it with a cleansing and clearing energy. This unique combination provides not only the healing and restoration of the aura but also a sense of purification and entity cleansing. If you resonate with these qualities, sphalerite might be the perfect stone for you. Pyrite Another noteworthy stone to consider is General Pyrite, which consists of iron and sulfur. By harnessing the power of iron it contributes to the filling and repair of energetic holes. Moreover, the sulfur component adds a unique quality of burning away, chelating, and clearing energy. This combination of iron and sulfur infuses a potent energy that promotes both healing and purging of energetic blockages. By harnessing the power of these stones, individuals experiencing holes in their aura can initiate a transformative healing journey. Remember to choose stones that resonate with you personally and work with them in meditation, energy healing practices, or by carrying them with you throughout the day. Embrace the power of these stones and witness the positive impact they can have on your energetic well-being.

CCP Blog - Episode 1 3 Superpowers Of All Red Stones We bleed red. Blood is warmth. It is animation. It is emotion. It is what makes us alive. And red represents all of those qualities and more. That is why there is power in red, and the ancients were aware of it. In this episode of Crystal Clarity Podcast, Sarah Thomas shares with us the three superpowers of red stones. And yes, they are true superpowers. Think about cinnabar, red tourmaline, carnelian, ruby, and hematite. Ancient peoples – even those who painted red ochre in caves – recognized their value and used them for a variety of sacred purposes. Tune in to this episode and get to know your red stones more intimately, so you can use them whenever you or someone else needs them. This episode is going to be helpful and important for you if you are about to go into something that is going to take some focus, presence, energy, and reserves and if you are going into a marathon type of moment or something where you are going to want to apply yourself. If you are going into something where you are like, “I want to feel steady, calm and grounded for this. I want to be able to feel present for this. I want to feel like I have the resources to get through this,” there is a group of stones that are perfect for these moments. It is the red stones. If you love red stones and you have red stones like red carnelian, ruby, sphalerite, tourmaline, and jasper, there are three superpowers that all red stones have. Knowing and naming those three superpowers of red stones are going to help you befriend and utilize them more. You will be able to give them to somebody when they are in these moments in their life. It allows you to allow them to do the work they are here to do. I can hear all the red stones peeking up around me. This is cool. This episode is about us. Enjoy this time to learn the three incredible superpowers of all red stones. --- This episode is about red stones. It is about the three superpowers that all red stones have in common. When I say superpowers, I mean really superpowers. These are super powerful stones. We are going to talk about all of these different red stones. I want to make sure that you know exactly the three superpowers, that anytime that you pick one of these up to heal, awaken or do ritual, all the things that we do with our stones, you will know what you are bringing to the table. You feel refreshed and clear about that. This is such an incredible group of stones. I want to start by saying that we bleed red. That is fascinating that we bleed red. We bleed this beautiful dark red color. It is my favorite color. I love red, orange, yellow, and pink. I love all the combinations of red. We could bleed blue, light blue, green, or yellow. It is what pumps through our veins and makes us alive. Blood is warmth. It is animation, in motion and emotion. It is what makes us alive. We bleed red. If you think of a dead body, it is cold and stiff. There is no warmth or movement. Blood is all about that animation, movement, and aliveness. Blood has everything to do with our emotional landscape. The blood carries and holds the spirit. If you have ever been in the room with someone who has passed away, you feel the spirit move out of the body. That spirit was housed by the blood inside the body. That aliveness, warmth, and feeling of being alive and feeling alive in a spiritual sense too. I feel alive now. I want to get up, get out of bed, and have my day. I feel alive. I feel that juiciness. That is the blood, and it is dark red. It is aliveness. Think of menstrual blood as well. The color red is often associated with women, whereas white would be more associated with biological men because white is the semen and red is the menstrual blood. Think of the menstrual blood and what it represents. It represents life. This person is able to make life. They are in a cycle of their life where they can make life. Think of soldiers. They always wear dark red. They will wear garnet, garnet belts, sheaths, and headbands. They will find red stones and iron hematite. They will wear those into battle because it is like saying, “You can't kill me. I'm alive. I'm going to have victory. I'm going to be the one that is standing here alive at the end of it.” In many different ways, blood means what is alive? It is dark red. Blood is also connected to our ancestry. It is the blood that we pass down. It is our blood relatives and the animation of the spirit that passes down through ancestry lands in our blood. It is amazing that it is dark red. It could be any other color. Color therapy is all about how color affects biological systems and anything that's alive but it is not that it affects our physical form. It affects our multi-dimensionality, spiritual body, emotional body, physical body, and the millions of multi-dimensional subtle nuances that we encompass. We feel the color red around us. We pick that up. We get affected by that biological system. When we say, “Red does something,” it is not a metaphor. It is not like we want to say that red does something because it looks like this. No, our bodies are picking up the color red. In Ancient China, when we look at the five-element theory, the color red means many things. It comes off the face and body. We see it in certain ways and it means things. It is phenomenologically tied to who we are. Color therapy is not just a metaphor. It is something that deeply affects us on all layers. Color is important, and it is highly correlated to emotions. I want to talk about the three superpowers of red stones. We are talking about cinnabar. Cinnabar even had red in the name. We are talking about garnet and hematite. It talks about ancestry in the name of hematite. Hematite created red ochre. The first cave paintings are made out of hematite streaks scratched on the wall. It makes red ochre paint pigments. It is important in this conversation. I'm not talking about pink. I'm talking about your red stones, red tigers eye, real red cornelian, real red jasper, and red tourmaline. Keep that in mind, like a darker red rubellite or the red inside watermelon tourmaline. There are many other red stones that you might be thinking about. Let's move into what they all have in common and these superpowers. Number one is that red stones are going to bring energy/vitality to that living system. Red builds strength in the body and physical systems. It builds physical power. It strengthens you up. Think of your adrenals and vitality like your power to move through the day. That is what red stones are going to affect. Think of your lower dan tian, which is the lower part of your belly, your pelvis underneath your belly button. That is where the fire is generated. The small of your back, which we call Mingmen, is where the fire in your body is cultivated. That fire rate is what creates metabolism, energy, and movement in our lives and the ability to move, be mobile and have energy. I used to go to a workout place for many years that was called the fire because fire is all about that metabolism that we light inside of us. Energy, libido, physical metabolism, fuel, moving, and feeling strong. The fire is red. It is all about this red color. It is going to go into the body and build strength and physical power in living systems. I keep saying the physical level. It is the physical level. All color affects all levels of who we are. There are a lot of levels of who we are. This one is particularly tuned in to hone you up in your physical system, which is important. I can't even name how many moments in people's lives they are going to need physical energy. Number two is grounding to the Earth. We could call this earthing, but this color and all of these stones ground us and connect us to the Earth below us. They have a resonance that keeps our feet on the ground. They keep our pelvis connected to the Earth. Red is connected to the root chakra. When you look at the visible light spectrum, red is moving the slowest, longest wavelength. That slow long wavelength is the last color we see before color disappears into too low and slow. That low and slow is connected more through relative resonance to the material body. The plane is slowing us down and bringing us to Earth as matters. It is moving fast in higher planes, and it slows down to materialize. Coming into materiality and the physical body is being grounded. All of these red stones are grounding. It is great to put them on the pelvis and the low belly. On the lower back, they are incredible. You can also put a red light over the red stone. All of this is going to make us feel like we are sinking into the Earth. What's important about this is that one of the big places where we get all energy, spiritual energy, life energy, emotional energy, and all energy is from the Earth. The Earth is something that feeds us. We get to the last place in our own energy body. Maybe we had a trauma, we went through something big, or we gave birth to a baby. When we get low, the place to source from is the Earth. Earthing is a way to get all of this energy up into your body. I want to make a little side note for empaths. I'm sure everybody reading this is an empath. One of the things that empaths do is because the information is too much for them often or can be overwhelming because they are picking up much information from the environment. Sometimes, to stop that overwhelm, they will block that information from the environment. One place we can block that information from is our butt, pelvis, and legs, that root chakra. We can hold things out as a way to protect ourselves. There is an unconscious crossing of wires. Empaths sometimes will be protecting themselves a lot of times in the lower body. They are not open enough to receive the energy of the Earth coming in. What is going to protect them is the energy of the Earth. It is like that grandmother energy that can come up and be like, “I will protect your energy and sort through this for you to make sure you feel safe and you can relax in your body. Number two is red stones will ground you to the Earth. They will allow you to open up that root shocker so you can let that Earth energy in. There are many other ways we can talk about why and when it is important to be grounded in the Earth. A lot of them are about shock, disassociation, feeling split from the body, or something that happened when we went up into space. Red stones will help ground that person back down, especially red stones with iron in them. Iron is heavy. It has such an incredible resonance with the Earth of dropping down to the heavy Earth to being able to materialize. A lot of red stones have iron in them. If you have dark red sphalerite with iron in it, that is perfectly resonant with what we are talking about. Garnet and hematite have a lot of iron in them. If you also get that iron in the chemical composition, it is perfect for grounding people to the Earth. Besides number 1) Energy vitality and number 2) Grounding and earthing, the third superpower of all red stones is phenomenal. It is going to bring us back to how we started, talking a little bit about the blood. The red color goes to the heart. The heart picks that up. They are in resonance. They come together. When anything is in resonance together, they start to exchange information. The heart has always been the color red. That is Ancient Daoist, knowing the heart is color red. We could talk about the heart as the green in the chakra system, but I'm going to leave that out for now. Let's tune into how the heart is red. When somebody has a constitutional heart factor or something is up with their physical heart or emotional heart, like they are in sadness, despair, or anxiety, their face and different parts of their body will get red. We can see little blood vessels popping out. I spent all this time studying this correlation between red and the heart, and many people have for centuries. We get to relax into the phenomenon of red associated with the heart. The heart pumps blood throughout the body. It is the master and controller of the blood moving out throughout the whole body, getting all the way out to the hands, feet, and head. The heart is pumping that blood and keeping us alive. It is holding that aliveness for us. We talked about how the spirit is housed in the blood and that feeling of animation and being alive is housed in the blood. Our spirit and aliveness are being pumped around the body by our hearts. What is amazing about the blood and the heart is that all of your emotions are in your blood. All of your emotions are carried by the blood. Blood is animation in motion and it is emotion. It is that movement of emotions. If there is anything that emotions love, it is to move. Emotions are free. They want to be free and feel. They want us to be present with them. They want to keep moving. When emotions stop or get blocked up, we have repressed or suppressed emotions. It is the blood that is able to move those emotions. The more suppressed and repressed emotions we have, the less we are able to be present in our lives. We want to have fewer repressed and suppressed emotions. Repressed emotions are things we don't even know that we have. If somebody said to somebody, “Do you fear death?” They were like, “No, I know I'm going to heaven.” They might have repressed fear of death. They don't even know that they have it. A suppressed emotion is something that somebody knows they have, but they are not managing it. It is like the elephant in the room. They were like, “I know this is there, but I would just look away.” We will dive into that a little bit more in the future. You might notice that you have some suppressed emotions. I know that fear of running out of money is there, but I will leave that elephant over there. A repressed emotion would be one that you don't even know that you have. Keeping those emotions moving is all about the heart. When we can keep our blood moving, that is aliveness and presence in life. I'm going to bring something up that you may already know, but trauma freezes the blood and stops the blood from moving. Moving trauma so we can integrate and be present in the present moment. Moving the emotions so that we can have a full experience of life and experience emotions as they move through. Being present with the mess they move through and keeping those moving has a giant impact on who we are and how we live our lives. That red color keeps that blood and emotions moving. When we can't manage our emotions, or there are too many elephants in the room or suppressed emotions, that is where numbing ourselves through addiction comes in. Red stones are going to keep the blood moving, keep us present and keep us saying, “I know I have this elephant in the room of this anxiety, but I know working out helps me. I'm going to work out. It keeps that moving going.” All movements of emotion are good for matters of the heart. Emotions that are hard to deal with around matters of the heart are anxiety, sadness, and despair. Red Stones will help with anxiety, sadness, and despair, being able to be present with those emotions and helping them move through heartbreak. The other side of that is that red stones can promote joy, aliveness, and feeling present. They also can promote feeling calm in our hearts. That is the opposite of how we feel when we are anxious. We don't feel calm in our hearts. We call that grounding or calming the Shen. It means heart spirit. We calm the heart with red stones. Calming the heart is the opposite of the whole spectrum from anxiety to mood swings, to bipolar, to mania, everything that feels like it is an out-of-control fire emotionally. Those things are connected to the heart. They are red color and red stones because they feel like an out-of-control fire. Red stones can also calm that fire to this beautiful candlelight that feels beautiful and manageable. It creates intimacy like you are sitting around a candle with someone. Those are superpowers. Number 1) Energy/vitality. Number 2) Grounding earthing. Number 3) Movement of emotions. Think of times in your life when you are like, “I would love to have all three of those as I go into this.” Imagine if a loved one was diagnosed with something hard. You would say, “I need physical energy/vitality and strength of the spirit in all parts of my body. I need to stay grounded in my body and present. I need my emotions to be moving and flowing.” That brings that presence. If you are training for a marathon, you need these things, “I'm going into a phase with my work where I have to work hard for three months.” Think of other times that you would need these three superpowers, “I'm pregnant. I'm going to go through this long process of being present. I need these resources and birthing the baby at the end of it.” Not even a loved one was diagnosed, but you had a health challenge that you were going to go through. These red stones are able to make us be like, “I'm present. I can focus on what is ahead. I have the resources to make it through.” Red stones are the fine wine of all stones. Thank you, cinnabar, red tourmalines, red zircon, hematite, all of you iron stones, garnet, and all of the other red stones, sphalerite. Red stones were the most important stones in Ancient China. They were seen as the most powerful. They were also seen as the most rare. Moving into red stones was like moving into the fine wine of all stones. As I used a metaphor with another dark red color of fine wine, I'm going to leave that episode right there at that part. Be sure to get out your red stones when you or someone else needs them. I will see you in the next episode.

Your Earth Chakra is located in your energy field a foot or more beneath your physical body. It flows out from beneath the soles of your feet. It exists in people with missing limbs or those with lack of sensations in those particular lower limbs. Each chakra can tell you about specific physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of your being. Let me share with you what I know to be true based upon my 25+ years of experience and work with energy and chakra healing. When doing your own personal healing of the energy within the Earth Chakra, there are postures or items you can use to help direct and focus the energy work. Some of my personal favorite healing stones or crystals for the Earth Chakra: Obsidian and Hematite. The yoga asana Warrior One is a wonderful way to run energy to the Earth Chakra. The Prithvi Mudra is my choice for meditating while using a hand mudra to assist in energy transition and activation. The Earth Chakra informs you of your connection to this life: Your will to live and your ability to remain grounded in your body. The Earth Chakra also informs you of your connectedness to life on the earth: Mother Earth, animals, plant life, the land & water. Thanks for Tuning In!

Alexis Ault, Utah State University Above the seismogenic zone, earthquake ruptures may propagate to the surface along discrete fault planes or earthquake energy is attenuated in fault damage zones. Forecasting seismic hazards requires knowledge of the slip distribution and mechanical behavior of the shallow crust. Iron is the 4th most abundant element in Earth’s crust and hematite grows in a range of shallow fault rocks due to the redox potential of diverse Fe-bearing minerals. Hematite in fault rocks exhibits grain morphologies and nano- to microscale textures that preserve evidence for different slip rates and deformation conditions. Hematite is also amenable to (U-Th)/He thermochronometry, a powerful tool that, when combined with textural observations, informs the timing and temperatures (and thus rates) of fault slip. Hematite deformation experiments at ambient conditions and seismic and subseismic slip rates show low coefficients of quasi-static and dynamic friction, as well as generally velocity neutral behavior. In this talk, I share examples of how we fuse textures and thermochronometry data patterns from natural and experimental surfaces to inform fault mechanics. Investigation of hematite in shallowly exhumed, seismogenic faults, such as parts of the southern San Andreas fault (CA), eastern Denali fault zone (Yukon), and Intermountain Seismic Zone (UT) zone imply a broad range of hematite rheology, variable slip rates, and evolving mechanical properties that may promote or inhibit rupture propagation in the shallow crust.

Keeping yourself protected is an important part of health and wellness. Setting boundaries is an important part of this work - and crystals can help to energetically support you during this process.  This crystal layout for shielding your energy body can help to protect you from the energy of others or from outside energies in your environment.  When you work preventatively to stay protected, you keep yourself from being depleted and you’re better able to stay in balance and alignment. Remove Outside Energies from Your Aura: Start creating this crystal layout  for shielding by placing a vertical line of four Smoky Quartz crystals on either side of the body. There should be a total of eight stones placed in two separate lines.  These crystals help to energetically dissolve any outside energy or psychic debris that has accumulated in your field. By removing this energy, you’re bringing your own energy back into balance. This way, you’re better able to deal with new incoming energies as they emerge. Protect Yourself from Incoming Energy: Next, you should place a Tektite stone a few inches above your head. This will help to create a psychic shield around your physical body and your aura. Then, place a piece of Hematite between and just below your feet. This will help to keep you grounded and connected to the earth.  When you’re rooted into the earth, you can continuously pull in a stream of energy into your aura to keep your energy reserves full. This will stop you from getting depleted easily. In each of your hands, hold a piece of Labradorite (so two pieces total) to shield your physical and energetic bodies from picking up on outside energy. This is especially helpful for those who are highly sensitive or for those who have trouble setting boundaries. Simplify When You Don’t Have Time or Space for a Full Crystal Layout: If you’re in need of some quick support with shielding or boundary setting, try just holding a Labradorite stone in your hands (or one in each hand). Doing something small like this is much better than doing nothing at all because you're lacking in time or space. You may find it helpful to keep a piece of Labradorite with you for anytime the need may arise. You can also keep things convenient by wearing a Labradorite pendant or bracelet to use in a pinch!   Want to grow your knowledge & become a CONFIDENT Certified Crystal Healer?

Notes:The most recent expeditions to Mars has been NASA's Mars Exploration Series which started with the Spirit and Opportunity rovers in 2004Here are some highlights of their findings:Opportunity found Hematite which typically forms in water. The opportunity found showed to have an acidic nature.Spirit, on the other hand, found chemicals that indicate that Mars had a warm, wet history with a thicker carbon dioxide atmosphere where it landed. It also found signs of near-neutral water.More information on their findings can be found here.Next up in the series was the Curiosity rover in 2012.Here are some of the key findings from Curiosity:Found persistent liquid water in the past that would have been there for over a million years or longer.Found the necessary chemistry needed for life (Sulfur, N, C, P, O). Soil samples showed not much evidence of salt which might suggest drinkable water.Found a seasonally varying background level of atmospheric methane and observed a ten-fold increase in methane over a two-month period.More details here.Links to Science Outreach Material:Mars GOMcDonald InstituteRoyal Astronomical SocietyAstronomy on TapSpecial thanks to Colin Vendromin for the music also thanks to Zac Kenny for the logo!

Welcome back friends! It is officially season 3 of the podcast and 1 year of doing the show! We are thrilled to be back with you. This month, this season actually, has been difficult. Honestly, Ive been hiding. Hurting is hard, depression sucks and I have to say it has been the default to curl up and hide away the last few weeks. With the help of my friends I'm finally realizing that it is ok to let others know that we are NOT ok! Asking for help is not my strong suit. I have decided to open up to my friends in an effort to feel better, and take some help! They have great suggestions that seem to be helping. Tonight we are talking about what they are and if it really is working. We are also howling at this lovely full moon in Leo. :) Welcome to season 3! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/hiuniverseitsme/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/hiuniverseitsme/support

Today on the podcast I introduce the stone hematite for healing and grounding.    We are faced with the current situation of the Coronavirus and how it you may be creating anxiety and fear.   We have heard about the protocol to stay healthy, washing hands, staying away from large groups etc…but we also need to have a protocol for our energy.. an energetic cleansing.    Clearing our energetic field…. I suggest holding a hematite in each hand, or if you only have one..in your dominant hand.    You can lay down or be seated.   Hematite  is known to connect your body to the earth, especially when we feel scattered or anxious.    Historically hematite is derived from the Greeks which translates to “blood”.    The Native Americans used hematite in battles by crushing it and using the red tones as war paint.    Hematite was also used for medicinal purposes to cool the blood and help with inflammation.    Our Mantra is “I am grounded and I am safe”     Allow yourself to get comfortable. Invite the breath inward and welcome the breath out…  do this a few times. In and out….   Release all tension from the neck and shoulders…..chest and belly to dissolve….Eyes heavy but relaxed….face softens and relaxed….   Arms and legs relaxed….   Imagine you are standing strong..feet on the earth   Feel the weight of the hematite in your palms….heavy and grounding   You are safe    Out in front  of you is a beautiful waterfall of light   Begin to walk towards it step by step…   As you enter the waterfall….feel it's essence wash all fear, anxiety and nervousness away…   You are being cleansed and your energetic field is clear   Let yourself feel complete calm and peacefulness at this time   Repeat your mantra “I am grounded and I am safe” 3 times.   Stay here as long as you like….   Take this feeling with you, through out your day and into each and every moment of your living   Namaste ~     I am here to support you in these uncertain times. Connect with me on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/theintuitivewoman/  Where I will be showing up live for meditations, discussions or maybe even a yoga practice.   Many Blessings~Tina   *** EPISODE CREDITS: If you like this podcast and are thinking of creating your own, consider talking to my producer, Danny Ozment.

I've been sitting on this Inner-view for a few months now and I am slowly realising why. Some of the topics and concepts we spoke about I thought I knew and others I was yet to learn.Sacred geometry and metaphysical attributes are just a couple of examples.I would like to encourage all who listen to keep asking questions and searching for truth.Matthew was a joy to speak to and it was a blessing to share time and space with him. A lot of my experiences came forth through thought and belief. I am honoured to be able to share this Inner-view with you. May it arouse curiosity that leads you to the answers you seek.This episode is dedicated to Dennis Karaba, may you find yourself.

As this podcast goes to air, we are moving into the cosmic forces of the full moon, bringing in lots of opportunities for you to become aware of your energy and allowing you to go deeper within to hear the messages of your Spirit. The energy of the full moon this month is in Cancer and it's an lunar eclipse. Cancer is a super sensitive, super intuitive vibration which affects empaths tremendously. And…there is also a focus on communication because the Sun conjuncts Mercury and also some influences of Saturn and Pluto. You might feel a little bit of an oppressive vibe because of their authoritarian, responsible and transformational energies. No gettin around it, and needless to say, this can be a very emotionally challenging period. If you are a sensitive, timid person you need to protect yourself against bullies.  You are going to need a few tools…like the elements—fire, air, earth, and water—to help...if you can gather some Crystals from the earth like… Fluorite brings air energy and focus into your space. Emotions are fluid like water and sometimes require some lightness to show you what is the truth. Garnet is a powerful stone, especially for grounding. It is a get it done stone that can help you define your boundaries and leave the excess energy behind. It's also a great stone for commitment…commit to knowing your energy. Hematite is a healers stone and let's add in an Empaths stone. It will help you to define your energetic boundaries…it pulls in what's yours and pushes out what's not. Create your sacred space… if you don't already have one, be sure to get my guide.   Gather a few elements. AIR: Gather a piece of paper…a pen…for your thoughts . FIRE: And some fire…a candle and sage. EARTH: The crystals are of the earth. WATER: Gather some water in a shallow bowl. Follow along and allow yourself to go within and just witness all the sensations. Open up to seeing or hearing something…and then just observe... Set this intention or perhaps one of your own:   I no longer attract everyone and their problems. I no longer attract everyone's illness. I cleanse myself and shield myself from all negativity on this full moon.   Feel a clear sensation in your energy body. Feel yourself free from the attachments of others. Allow the crystals to remain on your altar to hold this new vibration of freedom and peace for you. .   After the full moon has passed, you can then take these crystals and carry them with you…your pocket, your purse or make a piece of jewelry with them.   Cleanse yourself and shield yourself from all excess energy on this full moon and allow the bright light to guide you. Aligning with the cosmos and finding tools and techniques to pause, to reset and be aware of your energy is so important.

A Crystal Message about the Healing Properties of Green Aventurine: "I welcome wealth and abundance into my life by consciously creating space for thoughts of prosperity."   Common Healing Properties of Green Aventurine: Promotes healing of the physical body Increases wealth and prosperity Protects gardens and homes from electromagnetic pollution Transmutes negative energy into positive energy Encourages compassionate behavior Stimulates will power and confidence Assists past life regressions and ascensions Balances the mind, body, and spirit Enhances creativity in artistic endeavors Promotes peace and calming Increases protection Aids in problems related to the nervous system Helps prevent heart-related conditions Heals the heart physically and emotionally Encourages spiritual growth and ascension Enhances inner-strength Relieves symptoms of allergies Removes energetic sources of headache and migraine pain Diminishes energetic blocks that may be causing acne and other skin problems Promotes love Instills a feeling of inner peace   /*   Colors: Light or dark green with sparkly flecks caused by Mica inclusions Associated Chakras: 4th (Heart) Zodiac Signs: Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn, Libra Elements: Earth, Water Companion Flowers: Toad Lily Companion Essential Oil: Sage Companion Stone: Rose Quartz Common Origins: India, Brazil Notes: Aventurine may sometimes contain small bits of Pyrite or Hematite. Also known as Love Stone, Indian Jade, Green Avanturine, or Green Adventurine. This stone is often mistaken for Green Quartz which is more or less the same but doesn't have the sparkling Mica inclusions of Aventurine. Wanna’ Get Science-y? Click Here to get more information about this crystal! More About Green Aventurine: The sparkles in green aventurine are natural and come from the fuchsite mica that gives this form of quartz its green color. It’s a go-to stone for financial success, and luck of all kinds — so much so that it’s known as the “gambler’s stone.” Some people keep a piece of aventurine with them whenever they make a bet; this can mean either a literal trip a casino, or else simply the need to take on financial challenges: a job interview, a tax audit, or even just paying the bills. In magic and metaphysics, your intention is everything, and carrying or wearing aventurine can help you remember your career and financial goals — and, in the process, do the things necessary to attain them. Pin it!

Tune into this episode of The Zen Room where we talk about Hematite and its properties as a grounding stone.

Did you know that some of your most beloved healing crystals are actually combinations of more than one stone? Lapis Lazuli, Tiger Iron, Unakite, and others are made up of more than one mineral. When multiple minerals come together to create something new, this is the definition of a rock. That’s right!  A rock. Most of the time, we don’t use that word in the heal-y feely world of crystal healing, but rocks can be super lovely for healing too.  In the wellness community, we usually use the words crystal, stone, mineral, etc. interchangeably, but they do each have their own specific definitions. Rock - composed of more than one mineral Crystal - a mineral that has an internal crystalline structure (a regularly repeating atomic blueprint) Stone - any minerals or rock that is non-metallic Mineral - a solid, naturally occurring, inorganic substance By now you may be wondering which of the stones in your crystal collection are actually rocks.  Let’s take a look at some of the most common hybrids: Lapis Lazuli  This is a rock composed of Lazurite, White Calcite and Pyrite.  It is not technically a “stone” since it contains metallic Pyrite. The best quality Lapis Lazuli comes from Afghanistan. Septarian Nodule  This is a rock composed of Golden Aragonite and Brown Calcite in a Benitoite clay matrix. Atlantisite  This brightly colored rock from Tasmania is composed of Green Serpentine and Purple Stichtite. Unakite  This heart-centered rock is composed of Epidote and Peach Feldspar.   Tiger Iron  This beautiful South African rock is composed of Golden Tiger’s Eye, Red Jasper, and Hematite.  It is not technically a stone since is contains metallic Hematite. Ametrine  This is actually a crystal and is not a rock at all.  Both Amethyst and Citrine are colored varieties of Quartz. When parts of the iron-containing Amethyst are heated, they turn into golden Citrine.  The best quality (and most beautiful!) Ametrine crystals are from Bolivia. So which pieces from your collection are actually hybrids of other minerals?   Want to know more? Sign up below to get your hands on a copy of our FREE Mini Crystal Healing eBook! YES PLEASE!

“Feng shui literally translated is ‘wind and water,’ the two most prevalent elements that shape our world. Feng shui can be used to shape the energy around you. It is about changing your life by assessing and maintaining your connection to the natural world” -Sandra Kynes (author of Gemstone Feng Shui).   For this reason, crystals can be used according to the principles of feng shui in order to enhance positive energy and counteract negative energy in your space. Crystals and stones can be used to shift the energy in your healing arts space, and in turn, make positive changes in your life and business that will result in balance and harmony.  Knowing how to utilize crystal energy to positively affect the flow of energy in your sacred business is the key to proper Crystal Feng Shui. All spaces have nine distinct areas, and these correspond to the nine areas of the Bagua Map.  According to the ancient Chinese Bagua Map, parts of your space directly connect to certain areas of your life. By placing stones in your business, office, or healing room according to the Bagua Map, you can change the energy of your space, and, in turn, of your life. You can place stones in one area of your healing arts room or business according to the Bagua Map, or you can look at the entire business as a whole and place stones throughout the home accordingly. There are several ways to do this. You may choose stones according to their color, their known properties, or their elemental correspondences. Wealth & Prosperity Section: Colors: red, purple & blue Elements: fire & wood Crystals: Amethyst, Charoite, Ruby, Fire Opal, Petrified Wood, Smoky Quartz Fame & Reputation Section: Colors: red Elements: fire Crystals: Red Jasper, Red Tiger’s Eye, Ruby, Fire Opal Love & Marriage Section: Colors: red, pink & white Elements: fire & metal Crystals: Rose Quartz, Pink Mangano Calcite, Ruby, Fire Opal, Pyrite, Hematite Health & Family Section: Colors: green & blue Elements: wood Crystals: Emerald, Peridot, Petrified Wood, Smoky QUartz Balance & Harmony Section: Colors: yellow, orange & brown Elements: earth Crystals: Smoky Quartz, Golden Tiger’s Eye, Petrified Wood Creativity & Children Section: Colors: white & pastel colors Elements: metal Crystals: Clear Quartz, Rainbow Moonstone, Pyrite, Hematite Wisdom & Personal Growth Section: Colors: blue, green & black Elements: wood & water Crystals: Celestite, Blue Apatite, Petrified Wood, Smoky Quartz, Aquamarine, Blue Quartz Career & Livelihood Section: Colors: black Elements: water Crystals: Black Obsidian, Black Tourmaline, Aquamarine, Blue Quartz Travel & Helpful People Section: Colors: gray, white & black Elements: metal & water Crystals: Clear Quartz, Snowflake Obsidian, Pyrite, Hematite, Aquamarine, Blue Quartz Once you’ve selected a few stones, place them in the corresponding areas of your space according to the Bagua Map to bring their energy into your space (PSSST!  You can grab a free, printable Crystal Bagua Map here!). Allow the new crystal to stay in place for at least four weeks so that you can monitor how the energy shifts in the corresponding area of your life and business.  This will seem subtle at first, but give it some time and pay close attention to how things begin to change. For example, if you’d like to enhance the wealth and prosperity of your business, try adding an Amethyst or Smoky Quartz crystal to the wealth area of your space (according to the Crystal Bagua Map).  Wait a few weeks and make note of any changes you notice in this area of your life. If things don’t improve like you’d hoped, try adding a second crystal to the space, or place a Clear Quartz crystal near the original stone to amplify its energy. Using crystals in this way not only shifts the energy in your space and in your business, but it beautifies your space, which is enjoyable to both you AND your clients.

Episode 41 is part of the Spring 2017 issue! Read ahead by picking up your copy here: http://www.glittership.com/buy/     A Spell to Signal Home by A.C. Buchanan     “Ash.” The voice is at once close beside me and yet muted, as if the sound is being filtered through a dream or a long stretch of time, a universe drawn out like an endless vibration of music. I can taste the sweetness of blood in my mouth, but no syllables emerge and my body feels heavy and soft. “Ash.” Beyond the voice are the sounds of a living planet. It’s hard to pinpoint how the noise of life and the noise of machines differ, when one can so easily mimic the other and both contain so much variety, the boundaries between them blurred, but it’s unmistakable. This is no barren outpost, no hub of spinning metal; this is a result of millions of years of evolution, web-like ecosystems tangling into one another. It will differ from all others and yet on another level it will be the same as all others, interlocking chains of consumption and relation and habitat. “Ash, we’re going to need to get you out. Can you talk to us?”     Hello, welcome to GlitterShip Episode #41. This is your host Keffy and I'm super excited to be sharing this story with you. We have a poem and a GlitterShip original for you today. Our poem is "Songs of Love and Defense in the Dawn" by Hester J. Rook.   Hester J.

Rook     I am bird song the whole of me, thrumful the nattering hiss of the seawind through my whispered bones. They seek to rewrite me call me raucous, unwieldy, liar, schemer, temptress until I am heavy (but weightless) like a pelican skimming belly over water. They speak as though their story can varnish them with righteousness despite the hurt they cause; rewrite our histories. But I am birdsong and ironbark; my words are warnings and heralds of the crisp                                                                      lipbitten dawn bright as the frosted wingtips of the black swans gliding through silver. I am birdsong and I am louder than the thunderstorm and softer than the gathering dusk on the hills fiercer than teeth in a kiss and unafraid I gather up my feathers and I shield.     Our original short story is "A Spell to Signal Home" by A.C. Buchanan. A.C. Buchanan lives just north of Wellington, Aotearoa New Zealand.

Buchanan     “Ash.” The voice is at once close beside me and yet muted, as if the sound is being filtered through a dream or a long stretch of time, a universe drawn out like an endless vibration of music. I can taste the sweetness of blood in my mouth, but no syllables emerge and my body feels heavy and soft. “Ash.” Beyond the voice are the sounds of a living planet. It’s hard to pinpoint how the noise of life and the noise of machines differ, when one can so easily mimic the other and both contain so much variety, the boundaries between them blurred, but it’s unmistakable. This is no barren outpost, no hub of spinning metal; this is a result of millions of years of evolution, web-like ecosystems tangling into one another. It will differ from all others and yet on another level it will be the same as all others, interlocking chains of consumption and relation and habitat. “Ash, we’re going to need to get you out. Can you talk to us?” I keep thinking that it’s important to answer, but each time the thought begins it’s pushed away into sucked up by the humid air. My mind drifts back, past the negotiations on Feronia station, through the twelve years of my blossoming diplomatic career, to Volturna, the ocean planet where I grew up, and the warm waters we splashed and played and relaxed in, and I think it might be my sister Francie’s voice calling me but I pull myself far enough into consciousness to realize that it’s too high-pitched, too alien… There are hands on my body, and words: don’t think anything’s broken, still breathing. I realize the air is breathable, which means we’re almost certainly on a terraformed planet, and yet there’s so much life, much more than is usually imported. I feel hands beneath me, my body being lifted, dragged, set down. There’s a bright light—sunlight—through my eyelids. Fragments of words come to me, words that I memorized long ago. A spell for safety in travel. But it’s in an older English than my native tongue, and so, so far away that I see only occasional words, faded ink on thick paper. I still don’t know what sandalwood is, and I think I need to stay awake, but I’m so tired…     When she was ten, Francie had edited the family spellbook, inserting “she or” and “her or” and “hers or” in blue ballpoint, her unsteady hand unused to holding a pen. I thought Dad would yell, even though he didn’t yell often, because the book was hundreds of years old and had come from Earth, but instead he turned the large pages one by one and said it was a fair point, and that it was at least a more useful amendment than the “tastes disgusting” comment written in cursive on at least two pages. Dad didn't really believe in spells, but the book was important enough to him that when our parents first came to Volturna he'd asked for an exemption on the dimensions (but not total volume, he'd never push it that far) permitted for cultural and religious items, family heirlooms. Mum brought a Bible from the Scottish arm of her family, and the korowai she graduated in, even though she didn't feel right taking it so far from her whanau, because her grandmother—approaching ninety at that point—insisted, saying she’d have her own children one day and they needed to be connected. We didn't quite know what that meant. Earth fascinated us, but in the same ways as tales of every other world fascinated us. Volturna was our home, and we knew its waters in an instinctive way our parents' Terra-born generation couldn't quite understand. And so on the day that Francie narrowly avoided being in trouble for her annotations, much like any other, we stripped off and yanked on our rashguards and shorts, a process we'd perfected through practice to a matter of seconds. Mine were in the wash so I was wearing my slightly-too-small spare set, lilac with a frill around the edge of the shirt. All Francie's pairs were black. In a few years I would be required to tell the doctors about how much I hated my body, and I'd rewrite this scene for them then, tell them I cried every time I had to change and was too ashamed to do so even in front of my sister.  The truth was that as long as people got most things about me right I could deal with my body. I'd never love it, but I could not think about it easily enough. “Go!” Francie yelled, and she yanked open the hatch and we dived out without hesitation, over the narrow platform, into the warm water around us. I ducked to wet my hair and then Francie did the same, hers chopped short and uneven. I envied it for a minute as mine smacked across my face. “Oy!” Dad's voice yelled at us from inside. “What have I told you about closing this thing after you?” We'd heard him alright, but if we were going to close it we'd have to walk onto the platform and down the first two steps before we could reach to close it. Waste of time. “Sorry, Dad. Could you throw me a hair tie?” “You kids will be the death of me.” But sure enough one dropped down into my outstretched hand before the hatch grated shut. We'd been in our new apartment a little over two years, moving because our parents had decided Francie and I should have our own rooms. It was on the edge of town and taking a few strokes out we could see it spread out before us; the buildings and walkways rising out of the waters that covered the planet. The flag the council had chosen, a blue circle ringed with white light against the black of space, fluttered from the higher structures. We had never seen land, and it was only when we opened the spellbook that we felt we might be missing out.     When I wake again there are drugs coursing through my veins and dampness seeping through my clothes. I open my eyes and see sunlight mottling through the trees above me. I remember being at a reception to mark the conclusion of negotiations regarding access to the route between Feronia Station and Auuue. The subject had been straightforward in itself, but was critical in its implications, setting the terms for future engagement between the Terran and Auuueen governments. So, having sealed a new treaty, we were feeling good. I’d had a key role in these negotiations, more than was typical for a third level diplomat, and it was hard not to take that as a sign that promotion was on the horizon. I had a glass in my hand and the sweet after-taste of spiced Auuueen seafood in my mouth, and was surely blessed that I’d not only secured a career that gave me the opportunity to travel the galaxies, meet high ranking people and hopefully effect some change for the better, but also one where the gown I wore—shimmering layers of deep-green over a blue-black underlay—was an utterly appropriate expense claim. I sit up and dizziness hits, nausea growing in me. I force myself to stay upright, pressing my knuckles firmly against the damp ground. There’s something rustling in the bushes to my right, birds flying overhead. My memories after the reception are brief and fragmented. I remember a distress call, drawing us out of FTL, being unable to get back to anything beyond light speed. “Cay?” I say, operating by guess work. My throat is dry. “I’ll be right with you.” His voice is behind me. I ease myself round, bit by bit, every muscle hurting. He’s tending to the injured leg of the ambassador, who seems, mercifully, to be otherwise unhurt. The only non-human on the shuttle, Cay’s wiry frame belies its near unbreakability. I shift my weight so I can balance, rub my eyes. “We crashed?” “Emergency landing. This shuttle is built for capitals and ambassadorial stations, not wilderness, which seems to be all this planet has.” Looking up I can see the blue sky, the gaping wound in the forest canopy we must have hurtled through. “Is… did everyone?” “Everyone’s alive, yes. Some injuries, but I think with treatment everyone will be okay. Getting out of here is going to be more of a problem. Don’t try and stand up—I put you on Combamex to speed up your healing time, but it will make you woozy for a while. Flashes of memory. “There’s a… this is classified information…” the ambassador had said, as we all stared in panic. She’d paused, briefly, grappling with the weight of disclosure even though all our lives were at stake. “There’s a planet… Silvanus. It’s a wildlife reserve, for species from Terra. Breathable atmosphere. Uninhabited, but it’s our only chance. We can be there in a week, two at the most.” Against Cay’s advice, I stand. Vertigo hits and I vomit, just a little, cling to a tree and manage to stay upright until it passes. Insects are buzzing all around, and the damaged shuttle is behind me. Just a few meters away the forest opens out into a clearing. The ground is covered with orange flowers, smelling of warmth, rising out of the soil to greet us.     “Marigold. Hematite. Elder. Rue. Tiger’s eye.” I list the unfamiliar ingredients, trying to picture, smell, taste such far away substances. “Tiger’s eye? Did they really use eyes from tigers?” “It’s a type of rock.” Francie was thirteen and could make me feel small without even trying. “What are cloves?” She wasn’t asking me. The device on her wrist responded near instantly. Terran spice, made from aromatic flower buds of a tree in the family Myrtaceae, Syzygium aromaticum. Native to the Maluku Islands in Indonesia. Francie threw her arms down in despair. “We’re never going to be able to find any of this stuff.” Mum had said I had to be patient with Francie when she got upset like this, that she was going through a confusing time, and that I’d understand soon enough. I understand confusion, I had wanted to say. I want the androgen blockers and I want to wear dresses and I’m not a boy, but I don’t think I’m the girl I’ve always told you I am either. But I didn’t say anything like that. Not to Mum and not to Francie. Not for a long time. I perched on an inflated cushion and looked at my sister. “You could just tell her you like her?” I suggested. Francie wailed. “I don’t think you could understand any less if you tried! I’m out of here!” We used to dive into the water to escape, but now Francie barricaded herself in her upstairs room. I put away the book, because we had to be very careful with it, grabbed the largest mug I could find and hit the strawberry setting on the milkshake maker, hoping that despite all my own confusion, I at least had a few years before I needed to be worrying about love potions.     We all gather in the clearing. I allow the Ambassador to lean on my shoulder as she walks. She’s short, as those who grew up constrained by Terran gravity usually are, but she cuts an imposing presence. Perhaps that’s why I find it so hard so use her name. Still, I admire her much more than I fear her. If anyone can get us home, I feel, it’s her, but her face is pale with shock and she says little. Aside from us, the group comprises two other diplomats, the pilots, a security guard and two guests flown by special arrangement between governments: Cay and an elderly human. Solomon, the pilot, his uniform crumpled and ripped on one sleeve, looks at the Ambassador, seeking her permission to lead this meeting. She accepts, gratefully, and he summarizes our current position. Our FTL drives are near completely destroyed—by what, he can’t tell, but there’s zero prospect of fixing them. Even if we could launch the shuttle, an unlikely prospect in itself, there are no stations or inhabited planets reachable on our support systems. He’s been trying to get a distress signal working, but no luck so far. He’ll keep trying. The good news, he continues, trying to keep us optimistic, is the breathable air, the hospitable climate, that we have three day’s supply of food and with our databanks intact there is no doubt we can find food on this world. We spend the day exploring the immediate area, administering medical treatment, working fruitlessly on sending a signal. The nine of us sleep, eventually, bunched together with spare clothes pulled over us like blankets. We try not to think about the future.     “What’s oregano?” Francie, now fifteen, had digitized the spellbook in response to Mum’s complaints about her getting her oily fingers all over it. Only I knew that at night she’d creep downstairs and pull it from the shelf, holding it in her arms as if it exuded some comfort. I’d mocked her, once, for being so attached to those archaic, impossible beliefs, and she’d cried and I’d never mentioned it again. “It’s a herb…” said Dad. “…for pizza,” said Mum, her eyes looking far away. Dad squinted, looked at the screen. I propped myself up on my hands to see what he was looking at A Spell to Prevent the Conception of Child. This was going to be good. Francie looked down and her skin, paler than mine, blushed bright red. “Oh, no no no,” she stumbled, pointing desperately at the lower part of the screen as I enjoyed every second. “This one. A Spell to Aid Understanding of Numbers. I have an exam next week.” “That’s kind of like cheating though, isn’t it?” I asked our parents. This day was getting even better. “But of course, Ash, you don’t believe in spells so it can’t make any difference to your sister’s results, can it now?” My mood deflated rapidly. It was fun while it lasted. Francie couldn’t be pregnant in any case though; she’d gotten her implant about the same time I got mine, though mine was larger—three circles under the skin of my upper arm, one releasing an androgen blocker, one for estrogen and one for progesterone. “So where do I get oregano from?” Francie insisted impatiently. “That’s not how spells work,” Dad replied. “There’s nothing special about oregano that helps you with maths. It’s about focusing your mind. You can use something else as long as it fits right for you. Why don’t you go for a swim and see if you feel drawn to something you could use instead?” “So what now?” Mum said when Francie had left. “She’s going to drag in a load of seaweed because she thinks it bears some resemblance to oregano? Well I hope you’re going to be the one cleaning it up.” Dad shrugged. “Yeah, I’ll do that. I’ll do a lot more than a bit of cleaning to get her through the next few weeks. If she’s out there in the water and the fresh air, maybe she’ll relax a bit. Staring at those numbers a thousandth time isn’t going to help her half as much as a break. These spells work sometimes, you know, just not how you’d expect.”     “Who would do this?” I ask the Ambassador. Cay has cut a tree-branch into a cane of sorts, and we’re walking out through the clearing in search of running water. “I thought the days of war were behind us.” She sighs. “I was running a list through my head all night. There are a few governments I think would like to kill us, a couple of separatist or nationalist factions that object to their governments’ treaties with us. But they didn’t just want to kill us. If they had they could have blown us up outright. But they drew us out and disabled our drives where they thought—because Silvanus is classified—there were no habitable planets. They didn’t just want us to die, they wanted us to die slowly.” My chest feels tight at the thought, even though the air is clear and full of oxygen. I hear a long howl in the distance. I hold up my wrist and it senses, reports back: Howler monkey (genus Alouatta monotypic in subfamily Alouattinae). It takes us more than an hour, with measurements and sheer instinct guiding us, to find water, but suddenly we’re beside a small but fast flowing stream, just narrow enough to jump. We smile at each other, perhaps our first smile on Silvanus. While the air is humid enough for us to condense sufficient drinking water, we still need to wash ourselves and clean our clothes. This find won’t solve all our problems, but it will help, and right now that counts for success. There’s something moving on the other side of the river. Something large. I’ve been trained on the use of arms, as everyone entering the diplomatic service is. I’ve never expected to use one outside a carefully controlled range. But before we set off, the guard handed me a stun gun, and now I draw it, awkwardly. It all happens at once; a snarl, a lunge towards us, huge and fast, across the stream. I fall backwards as I fire, rolling over on the rocks, panicked. It takes some time before I realize I’m safe. The Ambassador helps me to my feet. “Tigers,” she says, bitterly. “They seem so beautiful, don’t they? And yet…” I nod, still shaking. “Same with people. I don’t think whoever did this was after us, our government, our missions. I think they were after me.” “Who?” I shouldn’t be asking such a question, but at the same time I was almost killed too and might be stranded on this planet with weird animals forever, so I think I deserve some answers. “Someone I once loved.” The tiger lies motionless by the river. “You can’t trust everyone, Ash. Believe what you know.”     Francie left home to share a tiny apartment in New Venice with a friend, two hours away by boat. I took over her larger bedroom, packed everything she left behind into four small boxes. When I visited her she’d poured me wine and we’d eat fried rice from a little shop beneath her apartment. Afterwards I’d crash on an inflatable mattress in her kitchen and listen to the boats and the spray against the windows and the clinking of bottles. When I woke one morning she was already studying, even though it was a Saturday. There were no universities on Volturna yet, but she was in an amalgamated program with video-conferenced lectures, a practical engineering placement and three block courses a year from visiting lecturers. “Coffee?” she asked, considerate of my seventeen-year-old, early morning brain. I signaled yes, trying to unpick the disaster that was my hair. Dad called Volturnan coffee a hideous imitation and refused to touch it, but like most of our friends, Francie and I swilled it near constantly. “What are you studying?” I asked, looking over at her screen, caffeine in my hands at last. “Case study from Glar. You know that weird planet where the local life-forms change how everything operates, including all the buildings.” I did, vaguely. She showed me a picture. “Well it means that some things aren’t possible, but they can also do things like this…” “How does that even stay up?” The giant structure seemed to be almost floating in the air, anchored to the ground at just one small corner. Francie showed me a screen full of equations. I shrank in mock horror. “Magic,” I said. “I’m just going to believe that it’s magic.”     I hold my wrist beside plant after plant. About half it recognizes automatically; for others I have to input data: color, size of leaves, flowers. I’m building a list, edibles and poisons. This one is easy. Origanum vulgare, my device says. Colloquially known as oregano, a common species of Origanum, a genus of the mint family (Lamiaceae). Safe, edible herb for humans, although allergies are recorded. And I remember something in my personal data files, something I haven’t looked at in a long time. I sit on a fallen tree, bring up the projection of pages many hundreds of years old. A Spell to Send a Message Home And on it, Francie’s childish hand over the calligraphy. When a traveller wants to signal home SHE OR he must do the following… Snippets of Francie’s voice, so young, so far away: you have to call her “she”. She’s my SISTER! Francie’s edits weren’t just about her, I realize. She was defending me. When I was eighteen, I downed a half bottle of a terrible orange flavored liquor before I told her that maybe I wasn’t a woman and could she please say they, not she and then I cried on her balcony because I felt like I was backing down and like I’d been lying all my life, and she’d told me to come inside before I vomited on one of her neighbors’ heads as they walked out of their door and then I laughed and then I did vomit, bitter orange disgustingness over the balcony and into the water below. Francie threw me a towel and said that she loved me but not quite enough to clean up after me. Another memory, two years later: my family seeing me off to my first internship. I would not see Volturna—or any of them—for three years. Francie checking, one last time, that I had a copy of the spellbook in my data files. You need to be connected. It’s been nearly twenty years since I tried to cast a spell, but Francie once said it was in our blood, so perhaps that doesn’t matter. Here on Silvanus I find more than half of what I need. That which I cannot, which perhaps grows in cooler or warmer climes, I find alternatives for, following my father’s advice and looking up pictures, then letting myself be drawn to a flower or a rock. I project up the image again, weightless pages before me with the writing of generations. I use my finger as a stylus. SHE OR HE OR THEY OR SIE OR CO OR E OR OR OR OR OR OR OR… I finish my work. I close the book. And from the distance, from beyond the black of space and its spinning stations, through traffic routes and past more planets than I could ever remember, from Volturna’s deep waters and floating towns, my sister signals me home.

Did you know that stress is the leading cause of Alzheimer’s as well as many other disorders? It suppresses our immune system, which leaves us wide open to all types of illnesses. It has been shown to curtail our lives by 9 to 14 years! Fortunately, stress is usually manageable and avoidable. Try the following suggestions for a stress-free, healthier future. Determine what is initiating your stress and try to avoid it. It is frequently fear or worry: neither of which we can control, since they are most likely in the past or in the future. We only have power over the present moment. When entering a stressful situation such as work, try cloaking yourself with God’s infinite love. See that love spreading into any stressful situation and enveloping those around you. Letting go: Whatever the situation or thought was which created the stress, it is not serving you to hang on to it. Try rolling your eyes counterclockwise, which is to the left, several times. Be sure you are seated while doing this. Feel the emotion or situation pass all of the way through your body and back into Mother Earth to be absorbed. You may also wish to transfer your stress to your spiritual creator to handle. Breathe: Our breath massages all of our organs and slows down our thoughts. Take a deep cleansing breath in and let it out slowly and fully. Do this until you feel yourself start to relax. The best way to inhale is from your abdomen rather than from your chest. You may wish to put a hand on your stomach to help direct the in and out flow. Progressive relaxation exercises may also help. Begin with your face, tense the muscles, hold for twenty seconds and release. Do this all of the way down your body to your toes. Imagery: Imagine yourself doing something you love such as sitting in the sun, listening to music, enjoying wonderful scenery, holding an animal, or being with family and friends. See it, feel it, and experience it. Exercise: Whether you choose walking, aerobics, stamping your feet, pounding on the table, dancing, lifting weights, or doing push-ups, the physical movement may help reduce stress. Music: Play whatever music lifts your spirits. It is a great idea to create a playlist or CD with music that brings you joy and peace. It will then be available when you need it. In addition, listening to nature sounds soothes your being. Aromatherapy: Find a scent which makes you feel good and breathe in the fragrance. It may be an essential oil, a fruit, perfume, or flower. Avoid negative thoughts especially about yourself. Replace them with affirmations such as: “I love myself.” “I am wonderful.” “I am amazing.” Smile at yourself in a mirror, as well as in public. Laugh every day, even if it is forced. Laughter is a great stress-buster as well as “the best medicine.” Pray and feel the presence of God in your heart and soul. Notice your stress ebbing away. Meditate to clear the chatter in your mind. Center your being, relax, and heal. Absorb the grounding energy of the earth. Walk barefoot, hug a tree, lie in the grass or swim. If that is not always practical, carry crystals with you. The dark ones such as Obsidian, Jasper, or Hematite are best for

Ice, Hematite, Magnetite, Corundum varieties of ruby and sapphire, and a handful of other oxides.

Hematite magic scarab gem with a"uroborus" serpent. Protective gem.(1st century CE, Roman Egypt)Today we delve into the world of magic! Nicola Mureddu discusses first Roman and then early Christian perceptions of magic in this article, and delves into the key powers, beliefs, and figures in both systems. Of special concern is Simon Magus--Simon the Magician--a first century CE convert to Christianity who engaged in magic and made many claims as to his own powers before being ultimately defeated by St. Peter. The article provides a basic understanding of some key ideas and sources in respect to ancient magic in the early empire into the fourth century CE.PDF of the Article: Here. Journal Issue: Here. Feedburner Link: Here.iTunes Page: Here. For a broader overview of magic and its criminalization in the Roman empire [in text form], I would suggest James Rives' wonderful article on "Magic in Roman Law."
