Crystal Grids

The Basics
& 
Getting Started


I'm very excited to be writing this blog post today because it was recommended by a friend. Crystal grids can feel intimidating at first I know thats how I felt. So I am going to break it down for you to help you get started, let's begin...

What is a crystal grid?

An arrangement of crystals in a symmetrical mandala like pattern to aid in amplifying their healing properties and manifest your intentions.

What can I pace my crystal grid on?

A common misconception is that the platform you place your crystal grid on is the crystal grid. You can place your crystal grid on any flat surface. This can be a slice of wood, metal plate, glass plate or on tapestry. Your arrangement and intentions are whats most important.

What do I arrange my crystals?

Begin at a center point in your grid and arrange in a symmetrical pattern clockwise working your way around the grid. It might look like a flower a cross always go with what feels right. How big your grid turns out depends on how much space your working with

Here are a few examples I have done recently:


What crystals should I use?

Always begin with a neutral crystal to act as the conductor for the rest of the grid such as a Quartz or a Calcite, you can even use a crystal motif or totem. Choose crystals that compliment each other or that represent your current intentions. There are hundreds of combinations that you can use for your grids, but always choose crystals that speak to you.

If you would like me to do a specific grid or an arrangement for a particular intention let me know in the comments below. The purpose of this blog was to introduce crystal grids and how easy it is to get started.

Thank you for reading :)

Aquatic Animal Totems, Dolphin totem/guide/power animal

Do you have an aquatic animal totem/guide? How does the ocean or water make you feel? There has always been a part of me that is drawn to the water. It is something I cannot entirely explain. Since I was a young girl my dreams were filled with moments of tranquility drifting into the darkness of the depths of the ocean. The water surrounding my body and carrying me through the waves. The unknown...the spark of life and the renewal that water offers us is so beautiful. Life came from the ocean and it embodies the very aspects of renewal and rebirth. There has been two distinctive aquatic totems in my life the dolphin and the duck/goose.

Heres How Gabriel Was Potty Trained In 3 Days! As most of you know already we just recently moved to Oklahoma City from California, during all that chaos potty training Gabriel had to take a pause.

El Ojo De Dios

History of "el ojo de dios" Originating in the Americas these "God's eyes" as protection charms and a talisman of, the better known , third eye. A powerful symbol of understanding unseen things. Huichol indians created these woven pieces of art to put on their alters. A traditional "God's eye" has 4 points representing the 4 elements, earth, fire, and water. To weave a "God's eye" one is putting their own energy and prayers to create a physical object to forever be a representation these intentions. They are often used to protect children. They can be given as gifts either at birth, a baptism, or birthday. I found a great link to the history of "el ojo de dios" and a how to on okhistory.org, what a coincidence :) http://www.okhistory.org/kids/printables/godseye.pdf Heres my mobile!
