FIRE AGATE, A FIERY CRYSTAL OF PROTECTION

 


I found this beauty while visiting a local eccentric shop. I had gone to the store in hopes of finding a Crystal that called to me. Of course, there were many to go through while there. They had amethyst, quartz, calcite, amber a plenty! Whos its and what's its galore! But it was THIS little stone that had the vibes I was looking for.

I suppose I'll start of by explaining how I find the Crystal calling out to me. I know some witches and new agers focus on a feeling of warmth in their palm, but that's not exactly how I do it... For me, it's less a feeling of warmth and more a feeling of high level vibration... Kind of like, I can feel the buzzing of the very atoms of the Crystal calling out to me.

And this was the only Crystal that had that feeling today.

Coincidently (NOT! BECAUSE THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS COINCIDENCES!!!) I have been feeling a calling towards Dragons lately. So the fact that it was Fire Agate calling out to me just kind of made sense.

So, I purchased the Crystal (for $3, by the way, a total steal!) and headed home to do research on the little bugger than said "HEY! It's me! You need me!"

It turns out Fire Agate is a semi rare genre of Agate. It was created when hot water filled with silica and high levels of iron filled the cracks of surrounding stones, giving it the fiery look to it.

As it turns out, this stone is used for a number of things and holds many benefits.

Fire Agate is a stone of passion; sexuality, creativity, and protection.

This stone can be used to help push through creative blocks and is great for writers, artists, and the like.

It is also known to aid with sexual blocks like impotence and fear of sexual intimacy. 

This all comes together when you learn that the PHYSICAL healing benefits of this stone include cardio health and blood circulation. When you focus on these aspects of the body, it makes sense that sexual health would also be effected- after all, you need good blood flow get aroused. 

This stone is also closely connected with the Root Chakra. Again, I'm not surprised as the color for the Root Chakra is red and it focuses on grounding us, our sexual health, as well as our creativity. 

Fire Agate is also a very strong protection stone. Imagine, if you will, a burning camp fire in the middle of the night in the forest. The camp fire will often keep the beasts of the wood at bay, as well as provide the protective warmth to survive cooler nights.

As I have been called to the Dragons lately, I find it interesting that such a stone called out to me today. Well, more like it SCREAMED at me!

Have you ever used Fire Agate in your practice? What are your thoughts on this semi precious stone?

LAMMAS or LUGHNASADH

Let's start this post with the pronunciation of  Lughnasadh. It's a hard word- especially if you're American or from any other country than it's origin. Lou-nah-sah Not an easy word to sound out, am I right?  BUT for the remainder of this post, I'll be using the term LAMMAS because it's easier to spell and I know a lot of people prefer this term because it's also easier to say. That being said, it is important to know the origin name for a number of reasons. Because are they really the same thing..? Yes and no.  Lughnasadh is the first harvest festival of the season. While it marks that Autumn is near, the hottest days of summer are still yet to come. This festival marks the halfway point between Autumn and Summer.  The first crops are being cut and harvested. Some are even left as Offerings to the God and Goddess to ensure a safe winter. Lammas roughly translates to Loaf-Mass and is referencing the first breads being baked from the first grain h...

RAINBOW FLUORITE- FOR MENTAL CLARITY

I found this little stone right after my first Reiki session. After my spiritual healing, I was once again called to the crystal section of the shop. Of course, I was! It's like they're singing to me lately. "Buy us, Maddie! Buy us!" Anyway, I knew immediately the stone I had in mind was going to be a cool, bluish green type stone. It's just the color/vibe that popped into my mind. I ended up purchasing two; the Rainbow Fluorite and an Amazonite, which I'll talk about in a different blog post. Rainbow Fluorite comes in a range of colors- i.e, the RAINBOW in rainbow fluorite. Blues, greens, purples, translucent, and somethings a mix of all three! This stone is known for its ability to aid in cognitive function and mental clarity. Because of this it is perfect to keep around offices, work spaces, craft rooms, and on writing desks. It's also a fantastic stone to wear when you're going into a place or situation where you want to make sure to keep your wits...

A HOME PROTECTION POWDER- A RECIPE

Last week's blog post was all about different, simple ways we can draw protection. This week, I thought  I would piggy back off of that post and share one of my go-to home protection powder recipes. It's a simple recipe that packs a big punch spiritually. You will need... *A bowl *Garlic Powder *Onion Powder *Black Pepper *Rosemary *Dill *Red Pepper Flakes Instructions : Pour about a tablespoon of each herb into the bowl and mix. Once completed you can grind into a fine powder OR use as is. Sprinkle this powder around the outside of your home. As you sprinkle the powder, chant: "This home is protected from negative energies and negative entities that wish to cause us harm." Say this chant at least three times or you can continue saying it until you finish your circle around your home. I personally continue walking in a circle around my home saying the chant two more times (bringing the total of walking around the house to three times) because three is the ...
