EARTH BEAT:
As we head into the zodiac sign of Sagittarius, the crystals and stones of Topaz, Turquoise and Amethyst dominate.
Topaz: For directing energy where its needed most, soothing, healing, stimulating and recharging.
It allows you to focus on ‘being’ rather than just ‘doing’.
Turquoise: For its protection and powerful healing elements that promotes both spiritual awareness and well being for the physical body.
It strengthens, purifies and balances, bringing together both the female and male energies.
Amethyst: Also a very powerful protector and one of the most spiritual stones.
Promotes great love, spiritual wisdom and intuition, calming and stimulating where necessary.
(See ‘The Crystal Bible’ by Judy Hall for more in depth information.)

EARTH BEAT update:
Many of you will be aware that I have been promoting and selling crystals and stones set in sterling silver jewellery, handmade by Balinese Craftsmen for some years.
I tend to mainly import ‘one off ‘ pieces to provide women with a unique beautiful piece of jewellery.
I am currently developing a website for this under the ‘Earth Beat’ label.
This will work in co-operation with ‘The Road Less Travelled’ allowing you to purchase handmade wares from artisans I have met on my travels.
My aim is to promote indigenous handcrafts, celebrating their exquisites crafts and stories in the hope that amidst this very technical world, we will hold onto some of our precious ancient crafts and values before too many more become lost.
These crafts have stories interwoven into them and it makes us all part of the bigger picture towards a better world.
Aotearoa, both Maori and Pakeha will feature, as I search for what makes something an indigenous craft and why the story is so important.
Stories gives us a History and Herstory and develops connections at a deeper level many of us are now seeking.
If you are keen to view some jewellery pieces or wish to discuss Earth Beat further, I would love to hear from you.

Kia Ora to all of you,

Hope this finds you all absolutely fabulous!
