Good Morning!
Honoring All Hallow's Eve: Intuition & Crystals to Enhance Mind Power
Tuning in to any energy is the ability to quiet the mind, allowing your inner
self, or intuition, to perceive truth. By practicing this art, we develop a
sensitivity toward inner information and the ability to condition our mind to
listen on a much more subtle level. This developing can allow us the ability to
sense energy and actually perceive on an even more subconscious plane.
Techniques are vast and varied and include Meditation, Yoga, Qi Qong,
Visualization, Physical Exercise, Prayer or your own personal techniques, all of
which can be used in calming and clearing the mind and achieving clearer
perception. Greater self control and self balance, awareness, inner peace and
connective energy to the source of truth are all important in the path to
attunement.
As our minds are conditioned to listen in silence, responses come quicker and
clearer to us.
When we tend not to trust our intuition, there are two specific crystals which
can help.
Crystals Associated with Intuition
The power behind Earth's minerals can be felt the minute you put a crystal in
your hands or near your physical body. Crystals are the treasures of the earth.
These stones are filled with energy to be used. Some of the best crystals for
intuition include: Blue Lace Agate, Charoite, Hematite, Kyanite, Malachite,
Moldavite, Petalite, Phenacite and Tiger's Eye.
Blue Lace Agate Properties: Helps to focus on the inner source of love within
you that transforms and heals all wounds. Contains the qualities of flight, air,
movement, and grace. Highly inspirational when working with the inner self.
Works well with not only the Throat Chakra, but the Heart, Third Eye and Crown
Chakra. These stones (along with malachite) assist in left/right-brain balance.
Therefore, those who feel stuck in their logical, rational selves can rebalance
so that they may hear their intuitive voices.
Charoite Properties: The stone of transformation. Charoite helps seeing old
patterns with new possibilities. It is believed to open the heart, allow
inspiration, encourage service, and grants us the ability for seeing more
clearly (mentally, physically, psychically). It is believed that this stone
brings about faster healing. Some find it useful for entity release work. Most
effective on the upper centers of energy, which are the Heart, Brow and Crown
Chakra to transmute/lift us out of troubled or stuck emotions and most of all,
fear. This brings about vibrational change and therefore stimulates the Aura.
Use this stone for transforming negative energies into acceptance. Use Charoite
to assist in the foresight and ability to improve your intuitive vision.
Hematite Properties: This crystal is the most recommended stone for grounding
and is associated with the Root Chakra, by encourages ones survival instincts
and is centering. Hematite condenses scattered feelings, turns fuzziness into
mental clarity, enhances concentration, memory, practicality, helps those who
study, do bookkeeping, detailed work and helps with sound sleep. Considered the
symbol of life energy, hematite allows for more confidence, will power and
boldness. Helps us adjust to being physical. A protective stone and helps
bolster low self-esteem. Hematite is known to deflect negativity. It restores
equilibrium, stability and is also used for astral protection. It brings our
awareness back to the body and helps one maintain their sense of self.
Kyanite Properties: Kyanite is considered the "Earth Stone" due to its soothing
earth tone colors, as well as its grounding and tranquil nature. The healing
benefits depend on the color it comes in. Blue Kyanite is most effective when
placed on the Throat Chakra in order to open the throat for communication and
self expression. On the Brow (Third Eye) Chakra, it enhances psychic images,
foresight, consciousness and meditation. Kyanite is used to answer questions,
especially in imagery, such as in vision, dreams or written interpretations. It
brings out our natural ability to manifest things into reality via thoughts and
visualization.
Malachite Properties: Stimulates physical and psychic vision and concentration.
Use for the heart and solar plexus centers. These stones (along with blue lace
agate) assist in left/right-brain balance. Therefore, those who feel stuck in
their logical, rational selves can rebalance so that they may hear their
intuitive voices.
Moldavite Properties: Powerfully expands psychic abilities, channeling. On Heart
Chakra. Eases longing to leave earth. On pillow, brow, crown: Telepathic access
to spiritual laws, info from higher regions/places to help us and Earth to be
healthier and more spiritual.
Petalite Properties: Petalite is highly spiritual. It has been called the "stone
of the Angels " and will help one connect with one's guides. It is also said to
dissolve negativity and black magic spells. Petalite has been used on vision
quests for strength, protection, and peace. It will balance one's yin/yang
qualities as well as one's mind, body, and spirit. It also enhances one's
ability to feel energy in stones.
Phenacite: Properties: A powerfully loving, healing, spiritual stone. Clearer
stones intensely opens 3rd eye, Crown and Transpersonal Chakra as a white light
channel. Clairvoyance/spiritual communication, meditation, astral travel,
journeys. Helps one to map out a pathway within the dimensions. Energizes
meridians and healing of other stones. It is a powerful stone for clearing and
activating the chakras, in particular, the Third Eye and Crown chakras. It helps
one to go further in meditation, and gives a deep awareness of one's inner
structures, the chakras in particular. Phenacite in general can be used to
amplify the energies of other stones used for healing, and to balance energy
within one.
Tiger's Eye: Properties: This stone is most recognized for bringing money,
psychic protection, courage, luck confidence, willpower, clear thinking and
speaking to show us the personal power in life that we have. Very versatile for
the Yellow/Solar Plexus and Crown Chakra. Tiger's Eye works on our mental plane
by amplifying thinking and manifesting what you think about. Helps separate
thoughts from feelings, more centered, less emotional. Tiger's Eye allows us to
recognize both our talents and our faults. It can reveal your true needs without
our self-serving or rigid mental attitudes getting in the way. Use Tiger's Eye
with malachite or pearl to benefit from their synergy for mental/emotional
balance and true understanding. This stone helps change anxiety, fear and
obsessiveness into practicality and logic. Has the grounding energy of the
earth, but is embellished with a glowing warmth. A stone for people who need
more confidence to accomplish their goals. Draws helpful people and material
things to the wearer. Centers energy and mental focus. This stone helps us to
find our closest version of perfectionism without obsessive behavior.

Honoring All Hallow's Eve
Halloween originated from the Pagan festival Samhain, celebrated among the Celts
of Ireland and Great Britain. Irish and Scottish immigrants carried versions of
the tradition to North America in the nineteenth century.
The term Halloween (and its alternative rendering Hallowe'en) is shortened from
All-hallow-even, as it is the eve of "All Hallows' Day",[1] also which is now
known as All Saints' Day. It was a day of religious festivities in various
northern European Pagan traditions, [2] until Popes Gregory III and Gregory IV
moved the old Christian feast of All Saints' Day from May 13 to November 1. In
the ninth century, the Church measured the day as starting at sunset, in
accordance with the Florentine calendar. Although All Saints' Day is now
considered to occur one day after Halloween, the two holidays were, at that
time, celebrated on the same day. Liturgically, the Church traditionally
celebrated that day as the Vigil of All Saints, and, until 1970, a day of
fasting as well. Like other vigils, it was celebrated on the previous day if it
fell on a Sunday, although secular celebrations of the holiday remained on the
31st. The Vigil was suppressed in 1955, but was later restored in the
post-Vatican II calendar.
Many European cultural traditions, in particular Celtic cultures, hold that
Halloween is one of the liminal times of the year when spirits can make contact
with the physical world, and when magic is most potent (according to, for
example, Catalan mythology about witches and Irish tales.)
