I’ve
really been into crystals and stones recently. I figure they’re a good way for
me to have a little charm with me without being too obvious, and if I wear it
as jewelry, I look stylish, too!

Apatite
comes in a few colors. I have black and dark blue, though it can also be a
super bright, vibrant blue. According to the website Healing Crystals (my all-time
favorite place to buy crystals, if not locally) it helps with psychic abilities
and focus during meditation and connects the user to a higher level of
spiritual guidance. It helps one come up with new, beneficial ideas (very much
so!) and helps the user know what to do to manifest those ideas into reality.
As it does this, it helps bring clarity, insight, and helps uncover the truth
and subtle messages that one might need to know while moving forward. Blue
apatite is great for people like me, as well as social workers, teachers,
counselors, journalist, and ministers. Basically, this is a good stone for people who need
to open their hearts to both logic and emotions when working with others, while not compromising one over the other.

Blue apatite is totally one of my new favorite stones, and I can’t wait to get more of it. (Right now I have my eye on this gemstone chip necklace. Isn’t it just great?)
Yeah, I can appreciate why you might want a stone like that to help you through the day. I volunteered at a hospice some years ago and while it wasn't a psychiatric ward I imagine that it shared a lot of similar emotionally tough elements. Thanks for sharing, and continued fortune to you getting through the day!
ReplyDeletethanks for the comment, James! and yes, you're probably correct in hospice and a psyche hospital sharing similar emotionally tough elements. I've never done hospice but I can only imagine! I've really found my crystals and gemstones to be an invaluable tool to me in the past few months. (and they're pretty!) thanks again for taking the time out to comment and blessings to you on this day and others!
DeleteOh, I adore blue apatite as well! I have a few pieces of jewelry that I should really charge, and use them to their fullest potential. I did find it rather frustrating when I was making jewelry, that it's so difficult to find well-cut blue apatite beads. They're usually so irregular! But maybe that just means I should let go of this constant search for perfection in the components I use in my jewelry. :p
ReplyDeleteI know exactly what you mean, anonywitch! I tried looking for blue apatite beads and was sent "very, very dark blue" (black!) I'm glad I'm not the only one who had problems finding them (though I'm sad that they're hard to find.) But the black apatite beads I have are very lovely with a great luster.
Deleteand hmmmm! "let go of this constant search for perfection" seems like something we could all use a reminder of! hahah.
thanks for taking the time out to comment!
Are you sure you're interning at the mental hospital?
ReplyDeleteIf so, you shouldn't be, since your apparent ability to accept as true anything anyone tells you would be a disqualification (if you believe that you have psychic powers, that these can be enhanced by wearing a certain bit of metamorphic rock, and that the same rock gives you access to knowledge, how could you be expected to detect delusions in in a patient?). Have you discussed these beliefs with any of your supervisors?
Why don't you create a double blind study that will provide evidence that you have psychic powers? You'd be on the fast track for a Nobel Prize, you realize? The implications would be so mind-staggering, everything else that we know about the nature of space and energy, about human psychology--well, everything--would have to be completely revised or at least re-conceptualized. Your name would replace Einstein and Galileo in the history of science.
Or, you don't think it could be, that everything science currently understands about the world that makes it impossible for psychic powers to exist is really true, and you just have some pathetic fantasy you want to pretend is real, do you?
Why on earth would you go out of your way to read a post about metaphysical qualities of crystals on a blog called "Space Witch" for a thing called the "Pagan Blog Project" if you were going to be flabbergasted at some harmless new agey nonsense?
DeleteCheck out the list of blogs they follow and you'll have your answer. Near the bottom of the list is "This Week in Christian Nationalism" on which the most recent post is about the supposed war on Christmas. Just another troll.
Deletehah. Great point, Dawn! Thanks for pointing that out to me. =)
DeleteThanks for the article, Amanda. I will definitely get some blue apatite to help with my meditation and Reiki practice.
