Second New Moon of Winter 2019

New Moon / Solar Eclipse January 5

Dear All,

Happy New Year!! Hope you have already planted some seeds! And if not — it is not too late — the upcoming New Moon in Capricorn opens an amazing energetic doorway for new beginnings!

New Moon in Capricorn / Solar Eclipse in Capricorn happens exactly at 8:29pm EST on Saturday, January 5th. It happens between Saturn and Pluto and connects with Neptune, emphasizing the following:
  • wise decision making
  • learning from the past to transform the future
  • being pragmatic while following your dreams
  • balancing methodical approach with intuitive guidance
  • achieving deep understanding from spiritual learning
And of course, all this while opening the doors for new beginnings. The window for this is quite wide — all day Saturday, Sunday, and Monday.
Additional astro alignments involving Mercury, Uranus, Venus and Chiron are accentuating expanded thinking, expanded consciousness, enlightening revelations, healing through beauty, art, spirituality, mentorship and supportive relationships . . .
Crystals to use during this time are Pink Tourmaline, Green Aventurine, Red Jasper, Carnelian, Mahogany Obsidian, Black Obsidian, Herkimer Diamond, Phenacite, Moldavite . . . This obviously not all at once at the same time but as you feel guided, up to 3 different stones at most if you are a crystal beginner, and not while driving . . . Remember that crystals can powerfully move your energies so if you are working with a crystal that is new to you, make sure to do it first at home, for a short period of time.
And if you are a newbie in the crystal world, I recommend listening to myjust released podcast HERE
Even if you already know a lot about crystals, you might find it useful. We are scheduling the time for another one that will be more advanced — if you would like me to address specific topics not covered in this one — send me an email and let me know 🙂 🙂
And now a list of events that I have going on this month for those who are local (Hampton Roads, Virginia):
~New Year — New Moon Meditation
Monday, January 7th, 8pm Cadefit
~Chakras Workshop Series, Introduction and Chakra Assessment
Thursday, January 10th, 8pm Cadefit
~Healing Yourself: Where Science Meets Spirit Workshop
~Energy Healing 101
Sunday, January 27th, 1:30pm Body Balance Studio LLC
Hope to see you there!
Till then,
Stay happy and healthy!

Start the New Year with Some Crystal Healing!

By Krista Mitchell

Happy New Year!

In celebration of today’s launch of my second book Crystal Reiki (a #1 new release in energy healing on Amazon!), I’m sharing a few crystal healing protocols from the book to help you start your year off in a healthy, loving, and magical way!

Here are three crystal healing sessions you can give yourself, depending on your needs.

Lie down, place your crystals, and sink into the vibes anywhere from 25 – 45 minutes. Don’t forget to clear your energy first, and have a blanket on hand in case you get cold!

Detox protocol:

  • Galena or smoky quartz placed at the feet will help to draw out toxins
  • Place red calcite at the root chakra for overall detox of the body
  • Charoite on the liver and gold rutilated quartz on the kidneys will help to purge toxins from those organs

Self-Love / Self-Worth protocol:

  • Place rhodochrosite, rose quartz, and rhodonite on the heart chakra for heart healing, compassion, courage, and pure love energy
  • Ruby on the root chakra for empowered self-leadership, grounding, passion, strength and confidence
  • You can also hold rose quartz in both hands

Manifestation

  • Hold epidote in your receptive hand and clear topaz in your dominant hand (you can sub in quartz points if you don’t have these crystals)
  • Pyrite on the solar plexus
  • Blue apatite on the throat chakra
  • Optical calcite on the 3rd eye chakra
  • Spend time during your healing session visualizing, affirming out loud, and emotionally connecting to your dreams and desires for this year.

Quaoar – The Sacredness of Life

Crooked Bear Creek Organic Herbs's avatarGood Witches Homestead

The Astronomy and Astrology of
Quaoar

Quaoar (pronounced kwah-whar) was the name given to the “creation force” by the Native American Tongva tribe who were the original inhabitants of the Los Angeles basin in Southern California—several thousand years ago when the LA basin was a vast and lush willow forest. According to legend, Quaoar, “came down from heaven; and, after reducing chaos to order, laid out the world on the back of seven giants. He then created the lower animals, and then (or from them) humankind.”

Quaoar was discovered by Mike Brown, a professor of planetary science at the California Institute of Technology and colleague Chad Trujillo in a digital image taken June 4, 2002, 05:41:40 UT from the Palomar Observatory 48-inch Oschin telescope in California. Quaoar was identified in the image on June 5, 2002, 10:48:08 PDT (the best discovery time to use for astrological purposes).

Full Cold Moon in Gemini | A Vision Board Ritual — Spirit de la Lune

Crooked Bear Creek Organic Herbs's avatarGood Witches Homestead

Tonight is the Full Cold Moon, and those of us in the northern hemisphere are likely going to feel a turn in the weather from here on out as the Full November Moon often marks colder temperatures on the way.

The Full Moon in Gemini is the perfect time for planning ahead and envisioning your future. Typically New Moon’s hold great energy for setting intention, but the Cold Moon represents an ebb in energy, and that couldn’t be more perfect as Mercury is in Retrograde until the 6th of December. Take this time to look at your intentions and goals. Rework what needs to be reworked! Refine your intention.

Happy Full Moon!

Full Moon in Gemini

Dear all,
This Full Moon in Gemini — Thursday and Friday — (check the full details below) — brings the energy of increased communication and higher learning, and you can go deeper with something that you started learning last year at about this time.
At the same time, while you may clear up or revise something from the past, make sure that you present any new ideas with clarity and patience.
The need to be right may be stronger than usual and the need to teach or preach may become overbearing if you don’t practice moderation.
Due to the stressful aspects between this Moon and Mars, as well as Mercury retrograde, you need to be EXTRA careful to avoid any arguments as well as while driving Thursday and Friday.
The Moon enters Gemini an hour before midnight and reaches its peak (becomes completely Full) at 39 minutes after midnight on the 23rd EST, less than a day after Sun enters Sagittarius.
Crystals to use: Fluorite, Aquamarine, Mahogany Obsidian
The mind may go into overdrive, so if you can’t sleep, you can meditate (check out my recorded Better Sleep meditations https://crystalcosmopolitan.com/meditation/ or use that “awake time” to put on paper some practical plans.
If you need any energy sessions (Crystal Reiki, Accunect or Tesla Healing) to carry you through or recover afterwards 🙂 — you know where to find me — crystalcosmopolitan.com and universalenergywaves.com
Happy Thanksgiving!
Best,Brana Mijatovic, Ph.D.www.crystalcosmopolitan.comwww.universalenergywaves.com

Things To Do During Mercury Retrograde

Home-Grown and Wildcrafted Smudge Sticks: Plant List and Recipes

Dana's avatarThe Druid's Garden

Basket of newly made smudge sticks Basket of newly made smudge sticks

Creating homemade smudge sticks with local ingredients is a wonderful activity to do this time of year.  As the plants die back, you can harvest whatever you aren’t using for other purposes and create a number of beautiful smudges that can be used for many different purposes: clearing, honoring spirits, protection, setting intentions, letting go, bringing in, preparing for ritual or mediation, and much more.

A few years ago, I wrote an initial post on homemade smudge sticks using local ingredients–this has become my most popular post on my blog.  Given that, I wanted to offer a follow-up post with some additional information and share a few smudge stick recipes for specific purposes. For initial instructions on how to make your sticks, please see my first post.  This post expands the plant list that you can use to make smudges and also offers…

Making Smudge Sticks from Homegrown Plants and Wildharvested Materials: Step by Step Instructions with Cedar, Rosemary, Sage, Mugwort, and More!

Dana's avatarThe Druid's Garden

I recently posted about my research on Eastern White Cedar, and I wanted to follow-up that post with information on making smudge sticks, inspired by Eastern White Cedar. Smudge sticks are bundles of herbs that are dried and burned for purification and ceremonial uses. They come out of Native American traditions, but today they are broadly used by many for their purification purposes.  I use them as a druid in my ceremonies, to bless and cleanse my house, to cleanse outdoor spaces that are in some kind of energetic funk.  But I also use them practically–as a blessing for my garden at the start of the growing season, as a way to remove hostile energies from my chickens who aren’t getting along, or to pass among friends before sharing a meal.  They are a great way to bring a bit of ceremony and the sacred into the everyday.
