"Virgo is the powerful sign of the Goddess, perfect unto herself. This energy is a reminder that we each carry a gift waiting to be discovered. The world is waiting to embrace our talent once we are ready to give it. The key, though, is feeling good enough to share our gifts with the world without fear or hesitation."~Spirit Daughter
When we honor our unique gifts, amazing feats of creation are possible. Here are three stones for drawing out talent and creativity, improving decisiveness and finding solutions, and drawing on your greatest strengths.
"Grounding means being relaxed but alert, energetically connected to the earth but able to move, present and aware, in a state in which we can take in information and make conscious choices about what to do."~Starhawk

Our inner beauty, that magical, numinous energy that radiates from us a bit like our charisma, is a force that can be hard to fathom. Yet here is a way to allow it to radiate more brightly, and to feel this energy flowing all around you.

"The first Full Moon of 2024 occurs in Leo, greeting us at the start of Aquarius Season. While Aquarius teaches us to shift the collective consciousness by being ourselves, Leo helps us decide what that means. Leo represents our center..."~Spirit Daughter
“When we are in touch with our emotions, our needs become known." That is the gift of the Leo full moon. Here are three crystals that can help identify, interpret, soothe and "roll with" feelings arising in the light of the full moon:
"Oh, the glory of growth, silent, mighty, persistent, inevitable! To awaken, to open up like a flower to the light of a fuller consciousness!"~Emily Carr

As the New Moon in Capricorn encourages us to take a look at the "earthy" qualities in ourselves, this selection of crystals encourages a practical mindset, and into harmony with the natural realm.
The Solstice is a time of quietude, of firelight, of dreaming; where life and seeds germinate beneath the surface...
"Ruled by the Moon herself, Cancer reminds us to slow down, pause, and nourish ourselves. This Full Moon occurs at the end of the year, allowing us to pause, reflect, and release. This Moon is also an opportunity to restore our energy and repair our nervous system as we prepare for a new year." ~Spirit Daughter
“While working away in the logical, ground-bound pragmatism of the material world, you must also be ready to see the stars at any moment.” ~Martha Beck
