Thank You!

Thank you to everyone who joined Crystal Earthworks in its Earth enhancing activities over the last week, in celebration of Earth Day 2024, last Monday. Here in Orkney I have done a couple of litter collections, one last week and one this morning both, at the Ring of Brodgar, with very little to pick up which is heartening. In terms of reducing plastic use we have recently swapped from buying milk in plastic bottles from the supermarket to glass bottles which can be refilled in various local shops. The milk tastes better too!

Full Moon Cleansing

Today marks the full Moon known as the 'Pink Moon’ whose name originates from the flowering of pink Moss Phlox, a plant originating in North America which has beautiful pink flowers at this time of year. There won’t be a special moon meditation today as I am starting to wind things down here in Orkney as we continue to make preparations to move south, however it is the perfect time to have a spring clean and place all those much loved, well used crystals to cleanse!

Soil and soul

As we continue our preparations to move south, after 14 years in Orkney, I’ve just taken up and cleansed the malachite from our greenhouse here. Programmed to reinvest the soil, and all foods grown in that soil with a Light charge that can then be passed on to those who consume the foods, these beautiful crystals have blessed us with so much over our years of growing produce here.

Eternally grateful for their healing light, we are taking them, and the gravel filled pots in which they have sat over the years, with us, ready to put them to use again in our new location.

If grow your own produce and are interested in actioning this way of working, full details are given on the ‘Enhancing our Soils’ page of this blog. 

Happy growing!

Solar Eclipse and New Moon Meditation

Our regular Tuesday meditation this week is being replaced by a special meditation this evening, Monday 8/04/24, marking tonight's solar eclipse and new moon in Aries. Eclipses offer us key energy portals to connect to ways forward to instigate positive change both for ourselves and others. 

The particular alignment of the stars and planets tonight, combined with the energy of a new moon in Aries which occurs early this evening, just before the eclipse begins, offers a potent opportunity to connect to ways to greater nurture ourselves, each other and our beautiful planet. 

With this at its heart, tonight’s configurations combines a Pure Grace Heart, four snow quartz, four chrysotile in serpentine and eight angel aura, as shown below.

The crystals will be programmed:

‘To bring greater nurturance to ourselves, each other and the Earth, in all her myriad of forms.'

Please feel welcome to join us from wherever you are based across the globe. Simply sit in peace, in a quiet place, through the allotted time. Let go of all your own worries and concerns, and then use the words and image of the crystals as a positive focus in meditation, positive thought or prayer. 

The crystals will be open for two hours from 7.30pm to 9.30pm BST, and can be tuned into for all or part of that time. The eclipse will begin in the UK at 7.52pm BST and will end by 8.51pm BST. 

Each and every connection will empower the effect of the meditation at both a personal and planetary level.

Composting

As we prepare our garden for its new owners, I was reminded last weekend of the amazing recycling abilities of our beautiful Mother Earth. Photos show the rich compost mulch our veggie waste has turned into here in Orkney in around nine months thanks to the warmth of the sun and the abundance of worms which naturally introduced themselves through holes we had made in the bottom of the bin. Composting is truly a magical gift both to ourselves and our planet.

Programmed to ground the emerald green light of harmony, balance, restoration and replenishment to the Earth and her inhabitants, these stunning crystals are being planted to key trees and woodland/forest sites across the UK and beyond.
