Ascending Butterfly Holidays Buying Guide 2010, Fourteenth Giveaway sponsored by:

I have always worn crystal and gemstone jewelry and spent my teen years studying the healing properties of various crystals. The love came down to me from my mom and it became a shared hobby and a life long fascination that we still share. When I turned 14, my mom took me to the International Gem and Jewelry Show. We were like two little kids in a toystore! It was Crystals and Gemstone nirvana for us. I think most vendors took a shine to me because of my natural curiosity about the various properties of the gemstones. I bought a bracelet at that show that I still have to this day and I receive numerous compliments on it every time I wear it! I actually wore it to an event not long ago and everyone seemed to notice it. I wouldn't even begin to know where they could find it today!

I have also learned to combine gemstone jewelry with my meditations and my meditation space. While the properties of various gemstones are too vast to list (I actually bought a great book at the tradeshow listing the various properties), for those who don't know much about crystals except that they are pretty or that they have a few gemstones on some of their jewelry, what I tell people is that they are a tool to help you enhance what is already within. Those that are more skilled can begin to use them in diferent ways including bringing about healing.

What I learned early on, is that you will somehow find yourself  'drawn' to a particular piece. Your spirit will tell you which one you need. Have you seen those bins of mixed assorted gemstones, that are sold to be added to a bag that you carry with you? I had a vendor once tell me to put my palms over the bin not touching any particular stone, preferably with my eyes closed. Then after a minute to go into the bin eyes still closed, and pick a stone. I'd say at that time I would reach for the same two stones either Rose Quartz or Tiger's Eye. Years later when conducting this experiment again it became agate, usually blue, after that amethyst. I still enjoy this experiment to this day. and I still carry my stones with me daily.

Vibrationally Aligned

I believe we manifest things in life when we are truly vibrationally aligned to our intentions. Is there a magic crystal that can cure all that ails you and magically make your life better? NO, there is NOT. But they do help you to enhance and tap into deeper parts of yourself and help you clear those roadblocks, not just the external ones, but the ones you place upon yourself. I feel what Crystals and Gemstones do for your spirit is something like what yoga can do for your body. With both, you must be truly consistent to  benefit from their affects!

Our mission is to educate and reconnect the world to the ancient wisdom and healing properties of crystals.

Rune of "Riches" Necklace



Do you want to manifest wealth, financial freedom, success? Then by all means, Read On! About the necklace:

The name RUNE means mystery, secret talk, something that is hidden. The earliest runic stone inscriptions date back to the late 3rd century AD, although some believe that these ancient alphabets had been used centuries before. Each rune has a meaning. Early runes were used as magical signs that were used for charms and guidance. These runes are all in an upright position, and represent a path that you want to move towards. Our future is not fixed; it is created with the choices that we make. Today runes have been rediscovered as a symbolic system. They share stories of the wise ancient people who created them in a time when people were deeply connected to nature, cycles of the solar system and spirit. Wear your rune charm, and infuse its energy with your own. A powerful symbol for a powerful you, these ancient charms will share a story. Listen to their wisdom.
 

Malachite was the favored stone of the Egyptians. The ancient Pharaohs lined their headdresses with malachite to raise their vibration and to protect themselves from the “evil eye”. Believed to draw in success, this stone assists in breaking patterns of self sabotage and limiting beliefs. It releases negative energy and protects from ill fortune. Ruby renews a passion for life and reminds you to follow your dreams. It improves motivation, enthusiasm and personal will. Rubies are considered royal stones that bestow many blessings. Citrine is known as the stone of abundance, it attracts wealth, success and opportunity. Citrine carries the energy of the sun so it is filled with light. Citrine does not hold negative energy; it emits positive energy and teaches how to manifest dreams into reality. The wealth rune attracts riches, success and financial freedom. 

Years ago I stumbled on a website that offered 'rune-scopes' and I thought it was the most fun site ever. It seemed like the universe worked it's magic in bringing me and energy muse together, particularly for this piece. I love gemstone and crystal jewelry and I have been fascinated with Runes for years. (I've always wanted a Rune deck!). This necklace comes boxed in a signature box with a card that contains not only information about your necklace, but also on how to activate and use it!  It gives you a list of affirmations to say for 21 days. Research shows that it takes 21 days to formulate a new belief! This Rune will help you to focus on believing in Riches and Wealth. The repetition of the affirmations changes your mindset and opens you up to the bounty of life!

My Take:

I have been wearing this Rune daily as recommended and I have been saying the affirmations that come with it, and I can say I have had some amazing doors open to me that felt like they had been closed for so long!

I do realize that the affirmations caused a change in thinking, and that shift of consciousness allowed me to make necessary changes in habits, that I coupled with a lot of hard work, this necklace served as a beatiful reminder that the path of riches, wealth and success is one we can all walk down if we CHOOSE to. There have been tangible rewards and wonderful gifts that have come my way very much in conjunction with when I began to review this necklace! Coincidence? Win it for yourself.  If you can't wait to win it, buy it for yourself and then YOU decide! 

Definitely an amazing holiday gift choice for the yoga lover in your life, and for any woman or man who wants to manifest something wonderful in their lives, be it health, love or wealth!
