This week I thought we’d take a look at crystals that increase intuition. What exactly is intuition? Intuition is your being able to hear and follow your own inner guidance. A few examples are: being able to make the right decisions, receive hunches to follow up on, and being able to read situations clearly. There are several different ways to increase intuition – through meditation, energy clearing practices, getting outside in nature, grounding, journaling and finally – crystals! How exactly do crystals work to increase our intuition? If you understand that we are energetic beings and we are constantly giving...

Crystals for the Garden   When it comes to garden décor, crystals are the perfect choice. They are a natural element that add to the garden on so many levels – beauty, consciousness, vibration and enchantment! But before we get into crystals, let’s first talk a little bit about plants.

Begin by asking these questions: Do you allow others to talk down to you?...

I had an epiphany the other day regarding crystals that I thought I'd share. It was about why crystals are so important at this time.

I still remember standing up in her kitchen and she opened a few small bags that contained a few crystals that she had just bought.
