The 5th Blog

So this is going to be my 5^th blog entry and I decided before I continue on with what I am learning through my studies, my crafts and others parts of my spiritual journey that I would share a little about myself and my reasoning for starting all of this.

So we already know I am 25 years old with one daughter and a baby on the way.  I am also engaged to the greatest guy in the world who I have spent the last 3 ½ years with.  We are getting married 10-19-2012 and I am VERY excited.  But to continue I also have my mom and sister, then there is my Dad, step-mom 3 step-brothers and 1 step-sister; all ranging from the age of 15 to 8 or 9. But it’s not so bad really.

I am one of two Pagans in my family (My Uncle is Pagan).   And thus my journey has stopped a lot due to circumstances.  But on a bonus side my sister from my mom’s side is taking an interest in Wicca and paganism and she is looking to me as a teacher but I myself have only begun my journey.  So make sure I stay ahead of her in studies and I do my best.  But I wonder if I should be the one teaching her at all..  But we do our best and I have guided her to read a few books.  I told her she gets to read “To Ride a Silver Broomstick” by Silver Ravenwolf when I am finished with it.

Sorry it has taken me so long to get another blog out but I have been busy with working, taking care of my family, and being pregnant.  But part of what inspired me to write was what I got in the mail the other day from my Uncle.  I got a bunch of stones! And not just any stones, beautiful stones; Crystals, Bloodstone, Garnet, and so much more! I took some pictures and added them here.  And I think I may need to ask Astraea for help with creating a website! >.>  :P

I am more into healing and helping abilities of stones, and crystals then I am the herbal healing or the magick of the world.  But then again I also have explained in a previous blog I don’t really think of it as magic but more as the energies that course through us and the world around us. Stones and Crystals can hold massive amounts of energy good or bad.  So next time you pick up a rock, even a run of the mill stone, think of the thoughts that are going through your head at that moment because that energy will be captured and passed to the next person who hold the rock.

I have a red crystal ball.  I bought it from China and I absolutely love it!  Now I don’t scry.  At least not yet..  What I do is when I hold my crystal ball I do my best to think positive thoughts and healing thoughts that way the next time I hand it to a friend or family member I know they are getting that positive energy that I put into it.

Well to finish this off this blog I have decided that I am going to start a 30 day Mini Challenge and pick one or two stones or crystals a day and write about their origins, what their healing properties are and other myths, legends, and facts.  So I hope this turns out alright.  I will start that November 1^st.

Well everyone have a Blessed Samhain and may your fall equinox be full of fun!
