amethysts in autumn ~ a time of letting go of what holds you back

Fall is a perfect time for letting go of attachments. Many of my own attachments are sacred to me; my children, my home, my friends. I do have some old attachments that I want to release, and I begin planning a ceremony for this around this time. Amethyst is a good ally for this ~ Amethyst helps you attain wisdom. It can help you let go of all that is old and all that holds you back - on every level and in every aspect of life - so that you may fully embrace your spiritual destiny. It stirs the intuition. Amethyst can also help you understand and let go of anything that keeps you attached to a condition. This gorgeous stone affects all your inner aspects, helping the wearer to let go of attachments. Helps in healing addictions, alcoholism, withdrawal symptoms, and aids in curtailing compulsive behaviors.

Another beautiful fall goodie I've been working with; Betel Nut. I just made a healing piece utilizing this natural material; Warming Brew.

Corn Coral ~ which looks good enough to eat!

Fire Agate, which is a good warming stone for fall!

Lava! Real lava in bead form. Just imagine chipping away at hunks of lava to acquire these beads. Great energy and strength in this stone.

This gorgeous Sponge Coral is nothing short of apples in a basket! The mottled reds & oranges are so pretty.


And finally, beautiful, healing Turquoise. This ancient stone comes to me from Mozambique. So very far away. A wonderful, calming, healing stone to wear in the fall. Turquoise provides cleansing, protection, & is considered the "master healer". It is a wonderful healing and cleansing stone and provides protection. It is also a grounding stone and provides strength and protection during meditation. It brings peace of mind. Turquoise brings clarity, balances male and female energies, induces wisdom and understanding and increases your psychic powers. A good absorber of negativity.
