Feeling satisfied with Lucias face for now. Worked mostly on her blankets today. Yesterday I felt so fatigued and sleepy, so I took the opportunity to rest and renew. Nobody wins when the artist works while fatigued. I think Friday was so magnificent and healing that I needed a day to recover.
Lucias mother, Angie, from
The Moon + Stone Healing is a Usui Reiki Master Teacher, Advanced Crystal Master and Certified Crystal Healer. I made an appointment for a crystal healing to see what its all about. I am very curious in nature and love to experience new things, we can learn so much from others. When I arrived at
Alta View Wellness Center I was greeted by serene and relaxing music, quiet and peaceful atmosphere. I had the chance to review the selection of crystals, handmade jewelry and other local artisan crafters on display. Then I was whisked away into a beautiful room (one of the many beautiful rooms there - massage, reiki and other offerings are also available) full of beautiful crystals. I noticed a beautiful crystal grid layout under the spacious and luxurious table. The pillow was so fluffy! Angie made me feel at home and comfortable. We chatted a bit beforehand about my expectations, things I wanted to work through and what the process entails. We started by meditating and we carried the meditation through the whole session. Angie started by checking my chakras health, then after receiving the information needed, she began laying crystals upon my body in a crystal layout. I had an eye pillow covering my vision during the session and unfortunately could not watch this curious and wondrous work. After she laid out the first round of crystals, I felt heavy and breathless. Then the name LUCIA passed in front of my eyes (still closed, still dark, still under an eye pillow) all of a sudden I burst into tears, my whole body shaking. Then after a minute I felt a calmness wash over me. I felt it necessary to tell Angie about Lucia and the calmness that I experienced after. She too acknowledged Lucias presence and pointed out Mother Mary and Magdalene had made their presence known too. Mother Mary often comes to me during channeled meditations and last month I felt compelled to purchase a Mother Mary statue to compliment my Sacred Heart Jesus statue. She anointed the crystal over my heart chakra with rose oil and continued. I released (cried) a few more times during the crystal healing (which is normal) and when she finished we went over everything that happened.
One of the first things she told me was the layout she used and the crystals she used. She proceeded to tell me all my chakras looked good. A few were smaller but the crown, third eye and throat were open, so she just supported them while she worked with the others. I was not unbalanced as I felt, but rather needed to open the channel connecting my chakras, if I understood correctly. Then she asked me if I had been thinking of cutting my dreadlocks. Yes, I had been considering trimming them, but hadn't yet because I felt I was doing a disservice to my friend
Houd. I had put them into dreadlocks just days after he decided to end his time here on earth and I was afraid if I cut them I would be somehow cutting that period of remembrance and memories out of me. Angie told me the message came through during my healing that if I wanted to cut my hair that it was okay to do. Clearly my friend Houd was there too (it felt like him anyway) telling her these things. She also told me a bald man with a bit of hair above his ears and a belly called me Mandy, told me he loved me and was always with me. I immediately felt this was my Pap. I'd been waiting for a long time to hear something from him, anything. My spirit guide, the most stunning, strong and motherly native american woman you've ever seen, made herself known to Angie and communicated to her spirit guide. We discussed many other things and she showed me so many beautiful crystals and messages during our session. At the close she asked me which chakras I'd like to work with and before I could answer she took the words right out of my mouth. The crown, third eye and throat was her recommendation. She pulled out three beautiful crystals for me to work with and sent me home with a bag of bath salts. I cried and cried on the way home, thinking of my Pap. I'd waited so long to hear from him, I miss him so.
My crystal healing was amazing, I felt great when she was finished. I was tired the day after but I think that is probably normal recovery as with any type of healing or exercise. I write this out for you knowing not everyone believes in God, crystal healings or the spirit worlds existence. That is okay with me, but understand I write this, because it happened and I must speak my truth. I cannot cover myself up anymore because of what others believe or don't believe. This is my experience with crystal healing and yours will doubtfully be exactly like mine if you decide to get one. It was amazing and beautiful and healing and everything I always thought it would be.
So I trimmed my hair today...
I feel lighter and stronger and ready for this year. Things are getting real.
