Crystals + Smoke

Name it | Claim it | Clear it

The December crystal + smoke recipe combines Yellow + Black Rutilated Quartz to aid you in identifying {Name It} anything you want to leave behind in 2020, with Prehnite to support you in deconstructing {Claim It} its meaning and Sage to soothe, cleans and heal {Clear it}.

Yellow Rutilated Quartz: Filtrate intensity of mind, body + emotions for your Spirit to shine powerfully through.

Black Rutilated Quartz: Heal, rebalance, and optimally interconnect the energy systems in the body for revitalization, joy, and overall well being. It’s ideal for compromised immune systems.

Prehnite: {my personal favorite stone this year} Enhance your inner-knowing by working simultaneously with all aspects of yourSelf and your Soul. This stone subtly synchronizes multiple lines of time. It’s supporting of past and future life work to create greater continuity and meaning in the Now.

Sage: Clear your energy regularly this month. The more you actively talk to your energy field and ask for purification, the faster the shifts will take place. {more details + tips below}

Holiday it up or gift-it with a Smudge Kit Sampler which includes Flower Rose Petal Garden Sage, Lavender, White Sage, Cedar, and Palo Santo.

Who put the “smart” in smartphone? Quartz Crystal! Its properties have been used for ages to transmit and store intelligence. Did you know an integral part of the processor in smartphones and computers is a refined form of quartz?

If you don’t have any Clear Quartz in your spiritual toolbox, get some! I don’t wear clear quartz on its own too often unless I know I am personally grounded and clear-headed, otherwise, it can personify and/or drain me. Instead, I use it in conjunction with other crystals to enhance, purify or clear the corresponding crystal energy.

Yellow + Black Rutilated Quartz Combined: Ooh La La! This dynamic duo will elevate your spirit, soothe your soul, and add a little rock and roll.

The Yellow will activate your solar plexus and crown chakras, harnessing your mighty “I AM” presence, aka your Truth with a capital “T,” and encourage deliberate, discerning action.

The Black will harness your energetic super-powers. It’s ideal for trusting in the unknown and uncertainty that life throws at us {hello, goodbye 2020} with a deeper sense of faith and offering of opportunities to make sense of the nonsensical.

Work with this dynamic duo + set clear intentions for:

Taking your power back by bravely identifying the dark, heavy stuff!

Finding hidden treasure and meaning in the darkness

Clear, effective use of your energy and intelligence

Heal and process heavy, toxic energies, mindsets, relationships, and environments with ease + courage

Astrology bonus: This combo is fantastic corresponding energy with the New Moon, Solar Eclipse. It will aid you in setting intuitively aligned intentions and becoming willing to run toward your dreams.

Prehnite: Be Here Now. That says it all. This stone has helped me create a greater sense of peace and ease than I’ve experienced my entire life. It’s not “just the stone.” I’ve done The Spiritual & Personal work this year, however, prehnite has been a surprisingly impactful gym along my 2020 journey and for some of my rock-star clients.

This stone is exceptional for memory recall, connecting the cosmic dots communication with your spirit guides / Higher Self / loved-ones on the other side and other aspects of yourSelf {most commonly referred to as past or future lives}.

Astrology + Numerology bonus: Prehnite compliments both Chiron stationing direct in Aries {internal healing turned external- shifting behaviors, actions and attitudes to reflect internal maturation} and the Cancer Full Moon. It’s also the best bang for your buck with the 7 + 4 numerology combo this month.

This unsuspecting stone can aid in taking lifetimes of pain, trauma, lessons, highs, lows, joys, sorrows {you get the picture}, and infiltrate the highest vibrations of your soul’s experience for Your Greatest Good in the present moment.

Ultimately, it’s a stone of heart-centered purification.

Bonus: December calls for Smokin’ it out! I’ve used sage, various dried herbs, woods, and incense to cleanse and clear energy for years. The ancients swore by smoke for its profound analgesic and healing properties, both physically and metaphysically.

Mini Sage Practice

-You can use this practice in conjunction or alone on the New or Full Moon or anytime you need an energy re-set.

-You can use a sage wand, herbal bouquet, choice incense or palo santo.

Carefully light the stick or bundle, creating an aromatic smoke. Wave the smoke over your crystals {and intentions if you’ve journaled for the New or Full Moons}. Then wave the smoke over yourself from head to toe. This is called smudging.

Repeat the entire smudging process over intentions, crystals, and yourself 3 times. While you smudge:

Say: I recognize the power of my energy, light, and intelligence as an ever-advancing being of love. Lower vibrations alchemize into pure, positive potential. All aspects of me are here now, with clarity and integrity.

Space Clearing: You can also smudge throughout your home, office, or any environment with intention and care. I personally like to open doors and windows bringing the inside out and the outside in. If I’m clearing an entire home or building, I work from back to front, including every closet, corner, cabinet, and hiding spaces. I don’t play. Talk about the satisfaction of a job well done!

I state and restate intentions along the way for clarity, the highest love, light, and energies to infuse the space for optimal being and wellbeing.

Insider tip: When consulting me about clearing energies, and boy do I have some stories, I always emphasize: It’s the power behind your words that matters, not so much the methodology. Speak your clear intentions with belief and attention.

I’m suggesting bracelets all around this month! Y’all know it’s my preferred way of integrating crystal energy. Stock up or Give gifts through quick links above at the beginning of the crystal section.

Tip: Put your crystals {stones or bracelets} out under the Sagittarius New Moon, Eclipse for 3 nights. Set the intention that these crystals will effectively support your energy in optimally transitioning from 2020 into 2021. Work with them into the New Year and the first New Moon in Capricorn on January 13th.

2020 CLOSING INTENTION

I honor and mindfully integrate the 2020 lessons from my personal and universal experience, opening the door to a freedom-seeking, adventurous, and dynamically empowering 2021.

I trust that I am exactly where I am supposed to be.

Que sera, sera 2020!
