Stone Energies – The Jewelry Box Workshop

Wednesday, March 11th, 2009

“With this information, the lady who did not have Amethyst in her Jewelry Box immediately decided she must have some Amethyst jewelry as she certainly needed clarity!

 

And we moved on to Jasper.  Following the same process, we were again delighted to see that Jasper, the Supreme Nurturing Stone, had assisted those who wore it with its nurturing qualities.  Each lady, in turn, shared how much better they felt – calmer, more grounded, more supported – when they wore Jasper. 

A new awareness about Jasper was it’s wide range of colors – allowing everyone (no matter the color spectrum most suited to them) to wear it.  And, as with Amethyst, the two ladies without Jasper in their Jewelry Box immediately decided they must add Jasper to their jewelry collection.”

Stone Energies – Amethyst and The Jewelry Box Workshop

“As you can imagine, the energy began to build as we uncovered the many similarities in experiences.

Moving on,  we asked those with Amethyst as a primary stone to remember the times they were drawn to wear it.

Interestingly, each lady who had Amethyst as a primary stone had been drawn to wear it during times of confusion and/or when major decision had to be made. 

I was absolutely delighted to share the subtle energy of Amethyst – it is the Stone of Clarity!”

Stone Energies – The First Jewelry Box Workshop

With this information, our discussion continued by focusing on these four stones.

We began with Moonstone, the Stone of New Beginnings.  We asked those ladies with Moonstone as a primary stone to tell us of the time when Moonstone most attracted them.  Each one shared with us that they were most attracted to Moonstone when their lives felt stuck and without much hope for excitement or adventure or change. 

As I listened, I began to wonder whether the stones draw us to them when we need them most – or do we draw the stones to us…..who is the most powerful in each scenario?”

“The evening of the first Jewelry Box Workshop arrived.  We had no idea how many or who might choose to attend.  We had set up tables and chairs for ten – eight attendees plus ourselves.  And we waited. 

Oh dear, fourteen ladies arrived – each with their own jewelry box in tow.  After a bit of scrambling so we could accommodate this many, we began our discussion.

First, we asked each attendee to list the primary stones in their boxes.  If they did not know one stone from the next, either the Stone Shop proprietor or myself would be able to asssit.  After we had the list by primary (three or more pieces of jewelry in that stone); secondary (two pieces in that stone) and tertiary (only one piece in a particular stone), the group began to share their findings.”

Stone Energies – An Evening with Jewelry Boxes

Tuesday, March 3rd, 2009

“It seemed to me that, in this day and age of unrest and uncertainty, knowing about the stones and their subtle energy would be helpful to all of us.  With this thought in mind, I stopped once again at the Stone Shop and spent time with the proprietor.

We decided to have a “Jewelry Box” party for all of those individual interested.  In our thinking this would be great fun and may help some individuals through these turbulent times.

With this in mind, we set up three dates and contacted everyone we knew might be interested.  I went a step further and began research on additional stones that had not yet come to anyone’s attention or focus.  With this more comprehensive research we could more easily determine what was concerning each individual who chose to come to our “Jewelry Box” workshops.”

Stone Energies – Being My Own Experiment

Sunday, March 1st, 2009

“With this new information, I decided to once again consider my attraction to Chrysophase. 

After I had purchased several of the stones, I had begun to carry them with me wherever I went.  As I carried them, I noticed several scenarios happening in my life.  I noticed that life was a bit easier to deal with – that things seemed less dramatic – less challenging.

It seemed that I just knew things – about myself, about the scenarios playing out in my life, and about life in general. It seemed that the obstacles I faced were less significant.  I really liked these more relaxed feelings and thoughts.  I noticed that even the evening news did not generate nearly as much angst as it typically did.  I decided I truly liked this stone.

With these awareness’s, I then researched the stone known as Chrysophase.  As it turns out, Chrysophase is the Stone of Hope.  As such, it is known to impart a sense of hope and creativity to those in its close proximity. 

And it had!”
