    Harmonizing Energy: Platonic Solids & Chakras with the 5 Bodies & Auric Layers

While I’m not an expert in these areas, I found this framework helpful and wanted to share it as a resource for those interested in deepening their energy work. Exploring Energy Alignment Through Sacred Geometry Sacred geometry offers…

  • Reiki Introduction & the 5 Reiki Principles 

    Reiki Introduction & the 5 Reiki Principles 

    In its simplest terms, Reiki is the practice of connecting with spiritual (rei) energy (ki) for healing and vitality. It is a deeply spiritual practice, but not religious in the sense that it does not connect with any particular dogma (and in fact, the principles are ones that show up in many religions’ ideals). Because…

  • Crystal Grid Basics

    Crystal Grid Basics

    In How-To Combine Crystals I share about combining stones/crystals and in How-To Combine Crystal Properties I get into determining combined meanings. In short, Crystal Grids are simply doing this on a larger scale so the elements are working over an extended period of time whether you’re in contact with them in the moment or not.  Gearing Up Having sets…

  • How-To Combine Crystal Properties

    How-To Combine Crystal Properties

    In How-To Combine Crystals, I talk about combining elements, and here we look at the implications of doing so from a metaphysical perspective. When combining Metaphysical Properties, I like to think of it as a multiplication rather than an addition. You don’t simply have the properties of two elements, you also have the resulting combination – just…

  • Why Set Intentions: Drawing the Target

    Why Set Intentions: Drawing the Target

    When I’d been intention setting for several months, I came across a quote from Matthew McConaughey that resonated deeply, “…the arrow doesn’t seek the target, the target draws the arrow. We must be aware of what we attract in life because it is no accident or coincidence.” This is such an empowering concept.  This is a…

  • Map of Consciousness: Where is Your Energy?

    Map of Consciousness: Where is Your Energy?

    Several years ago a friend changed my life by introducing me to the Map of Consciousness. The concept has been expanded and taught on by many, but the original work was done by David Hawkins. It’s a taxonomy for determining vibration/energy/frequency. Though you can dig into it, at its simplest level it’s an easy way to…

  • Burning Palo Santo or Sage for Energy Clearing

    Burning Palo Santo or Sage for Energy Clearing

    A wonderful way to clear the energy in a space is by using Palo Santo or Sage. Both have physical benefits as well, but from a spiritual perspective it’s a great way to set your intentions over the atmosphere. If you think of how someone might stake a flag to claim land, smudging using Palo…

  • Doing a New Moon Card Pull

    Doing a New Moon Card Pull

    This is the format I use for my New Moon Card Pulls. It’s a 10 card spread with two rows of 5 cards (1-5 top row, 6-10 bottom row). Each card represents a different area for insight, but hold that loosely and trust your intuition.  Personally, I like to use a combination of decks in…
