Protecting Your Energy

I had a situation happen to me a couple of weeks ago where I was mentally, emotionally, verbally and psychically attacked. It was totally unexpected and therefore I was not protected at all from this abusive conversation.

Generally when I am around very intense people I create an energetic barrier around myself before interacting with them. This has proven invaluable with my ex-husband and some friends that tend to dominate my energy if I am not careful.

In this situation I was supposed to have a conversation with this person about doing some work on a contract in their business. Unfortunately, that conversation didn't happen because this person made a snap judgement without all of the facts and let loose on me.

I was devastated and it broke my tender heart because I have deep respect for this person and value the contribution they are making to the world. I allowed it to drain my energy and take up noise in my mind until yesterday when I made the decision to let it go and not be victim to another's misguided power.

Today I pulled the Obsidian card from The Crystal Ally Cards. Obsidian connects with our root chakra and protects us from being sucked into someones power game. Obsidian is volcanic glass and contains both elements of earth and fire. It has been used as a tool of divination and also to make tools for protection and to hunt prey in ancient cultures.

If you have been feeling energy attacks from others or are sensitive to the many chaotic energies around you, call on the protective power of Obsidian to seal off your aura and create an invisible barrier. Let their "power play" energy bounce right back to them. They won't know what hit them!

Namaste,

Stone of the Week: Larimar

Larimar is a light blue form of pectolite and was recently discovered (within the last twenty years) in the Dominican Republic. Larimar stimulates the heart (4^th) chakra as well as the throat (5^th), the third-eye (6^th) chakra, and the crown (7^th) chakra. Larimar is a very nurturing stone and lends its energy to help one feel cradled in love and protection while cleansing the aura and the body, helping energy to move through blocks with nurturing from the Universe. It also reminds us to nurture ourselves during times of low energy and illness. Larimar is known as a “stone for Earth healing” and emits energy of peace, healing and love.

Stonetalker Insights:

Our lives contain the pattern of mountains and valleys. Sometimes we are at the top of our game, or at the top of the mountain. We are high on life and everything seems to be going our way. We experience times of great creativity and activity. Then we experience times when we feel a little low, down in a low valley, perhaps even caught down in a gully. It’s a time when we might be experiencing fatigue, illness or physical exhaustion. Or perhaps we are experiencing a lull in our creativity, some mental fogginess or confusion about our lives. It is important to nurture ourselves during the times in the valley and hopefully avoid the gully.  When you fall into the gully, it is especially important to nurture yourself. Accept where you are in the moment. Give yourself permission to nurture yourself and allow others to also nurture you. Sometimes this can be difficult to do if we are generally the caretaker yet is essential to do in order to move through these times quickly. Call on the nurturing energy of Larimar to assist you in your self-care. Feel the love and protection of the Universe and those around you who have your best interest at heart. Know that it is all part of the journey.

Affirmation:  I am supported and nurtured by the energy of the Universe. –Naisha Ahsian
