FREE Crystal Drawing Plus Understanding the Shifts Crystals Go Through
Yesterday, inspired by the Full Moon in Aquarius energy, I posted a Free Crystal Drawing on Facebook. Not all of you, I know, are on Facebook, but for those of you who are and may have missed it, I’m reposting the drawing here.
Below you will find the “how to’s” on how to enter if you are on Facebook.
And for those of you who are NOT on Facebook, I don’t want you to feel left out, so if you would like to be part of the drawing and you have a blog yourself or friends you can share this with, repost this on your blog, or email to it a friend, then message in the comments below that you have and I will add your name to the drawing that will be held on Friday.
And, if you’re not interested in the drawing, you can skip to the bottom of this post and read about “When Crystals Have Accidents – What Does it Mean?” – a good metaphor for how to view our own self-worth with gentle, loving compassion.
Here are the details of the drawing if you are on Facebook (again, if you’re not on Facebook, just follow what I wrote above in place of this):
Full Moon Fun! Receive a FREE intuitively chosen crystal just for you!
I am so inspired by the energies that encourage and support awakening creativity right now and feel we can all benefit from a little extra collective love. If you haven’t read my post on the Full Moon energy you can here:
Full SuperMoon in Aquarius Energy – July 22nd, 2013
In “light” of this, I will be drawing 3 names (the number of pure joy of self-expressive creativity and creation energy) from all who enter and each of the three people whose name I draw will receive a free crystal in the mail from me!
(Could even be this magical Tangerine Lemurian Seed Crystal you see pictured here that is a powerful second chakra crystal that accelerates energy patterns to activate soul-based creativity, strengthens passion, connects you with your spiritual aspirations, and amends the etheric blueprint to rectify karmic and soul imbalances)
How to enter:
– “Like” (if you haven’t already) my page: https://www.facebook.com/taniamarieartist and share this post on your Facebook page so that others can have opportunity to join in the fun (and the fun to come with more giveaways) and/or have opportunity to receive a little support and inspiration from the posts shared
– Message me here that you have done so and you’ll be entered into the drawing that will take place this Friday 7/26/13
– You can enter more than once by reposting this post on your page (one time per day only) up until midnight on Thursday 7/25/13. That provides 4 chances for each person that wants to enter (only 3 now since yesterday is already completed), to receive a free gift! Each time, let me know here that you have and I’ll enter your name in the drawing, the equivalent to times you have posted.
It’s that easy! I love to keep the flow of giving and receiving abundantly in action. This is why I share daily inspirations, thoughts, quotes….that channel through me, all in gratitude for and reflection of the abundant love I receive from all of you and from life.
In Love and Creative Joy of Giving AND Receiving!
I thought I would add a little crystal tid-bit share to this, as I have been getting this question come up a lot, again, and I feel it is relevant to not only crystals, but in how we treat ourselves as well – insert yourself into the post where I’m talking about crystals. Being gentle with ourselves, non-judgmental, loving every part of the journey and every perfection of who we are in every moment is really important. I believe that self-worth is a huge piece of the puzzle currently that people are working on. Unworthiness can be very debilitating and limiting – almost like a spiritual virus – and if you aren’t able to receive then you are blocking the natural flow of your abundance in every way.
So here is a repost of one of my blog posts about crystals going through shifts, just as we do, and ways in which to understand and love them – you – every step of the way:
New Crystal Friends, How They Assist Us, And A Thank You Discount
One of the powerful tools people resonate with and are turning to for support in these shifting times are crystals. Like with anything, what you feel drawn to is a mirror of your own power and divinity and can assist you in reconnecting and remembering the Source of this within you. When we are having challenge, or there are veils, blocks and fears keeping us from “seeing” our light, then “Essence” tools can become useful in drawing them forth with greater clarity. The key is in not being attached to specific things, but understanding the gifts they can help to reveal with perhaps more speedy and efficient access to them.
A lot of crystal friends have moved on to their new homes recently and in their place I have been slowly updating my Etsy Shop, Crystal Illumination, with new ones.
You can check out the latest crystal friends here: Crystal Illumination
I have also added a special to the shop. Receive a “Thank You” Coupon with every purchase. After you place an order you will receive a Coupon Code that you can apply to your next order for 10% off your entire purchase. Offer good until 8/31/13.
Keep checking back, as little by little new crystals are being offered, and I have a large group of Crystal Illuminations paintings to come within the next month, along with a “Free Offer With Each Purchase.” I’m always focused on service and fun! So stay tuned.
Also, if you’ve been a fan of the Lemurian L.O.V.E. Seed Crystals, just so you know, I only have 8 of these pendulums left from the original 50. They have been a favorite among clients, as well as myself. 🙂 So if they call to you, you may want to snatch one up while you can.
I thought I would offer this information again, as it feels aligned with some questions and comments that have rolled around recently, and is a way to provide some insights to people that are new to crystals on how they can support us and my feelings on the energy source of crystals as well.
I shared this info in a post a while back, Understanding Crystals and Their Role in Our Lives – A Lesson of Honor:
Where do I feel the metaphysical properties of crystals come from and how do they affect us? – That is a complex question that I can only answer through my heart and feelings. The energies come from Universal Consciousness itself, from All That Is, from their resonation with the purity of Essence and natural attunement evolved through the Earth’s consciousness, infused with Cosmic energy. Many have also been infused with information from ancient civilizations including Lemuria, Atlantis, Sumeria, and so on, throughout what we think of as “time” and also embody extraterrestrial energies, holding record keeping information, knowledge and understanding that is multi-dimensional, unconditional and boundless.
First off, crystals are living beings, alive and full of Universal Life Force Energy, just like everything that exists. They each possess unique “personality” signatures that develop through the process of their evolution. Some come from within the Earth, others from the Cosmos, or blendings of each (as in the case of moldavite and tektites that are created from Extraterrestrial/Cosmic Essence by means of things like meteors that fuse with the Earth’s crust).
Crystals resonate their Universal energy at quantum levels in harmony with human energy. Their internal atom structures that create sound, color, light, etc., vibrate at different speeds like satellites, radars, computers…and humans are like receivers that tune into the vibrations. Crystals vibrate on frequencies in harmony with all levels of our consciousness, as if playing unique notes that can affect each person relative to their make-up and resonance with those notes. Crystals are naturally in harmony with the life force even in their raw, unformed state. They have precise internal make-ups that keep them constantly and consistently in tune and in harmony. They don’t actually hold electrical charges, but can produce them. They can keep you in tune through their own harmonic synchronization with the primal energy of life, which then in turn keeps you more in harmony with life itself. Each one is a unique and distinct individual, as are we, with its own harmonic frequency rhythms.
When we are willing to receive this energy and exercise our Essence, we can contact the energies from which the entire Universe is comprised and crystals aid us to do so, being such clear channels of this energy. This is why crystals and other minerals are so powerful and must be used through the highest consciousness of the individual for the highest good. This is imperative. The Universal energies contained within each is activated and directed by interaction with the same. Misuse and abuse of crystals has taken place over “time” and they are in need of our helping them to balance and reattune, which is why they call to our hearts and need specific partners and keepers to work with and to assist. Sometimes the connections are life long, or “lives long,” and sometimes we are channels to move them to where they need to go or to assist along part of their journey, just as they assist us – all with the bigger picture intent to assist the Collective Earth.
They each vibrate a different energy frequency depending on their make-up – for example, their colors resonate with corresponding Chakra energies, and specific types hold varying vibrational resonance. They ARE Universal Life Force Energy within crystalline and mineral structures that embody codes of collective existence that are timeless. They are here to aid us in tuning our own vibrations to that frequency and supporting us to remember who and where we come from and to harmonize with the Earth and Cosmos. They can help support specific energies, act as healing guides, support inner growth, amplify things, bring things to light, help with clarity, strengthen, etc..but overall they help us to stay in tune, clear and balance all levels emotionally, mentally, physically and spiritually. They are representative of wholeness and can help us to remember our own….
To accept and welcome a crystal into your life is an honor, which they as well mirror, and is not one to take lightly. It is a responsibility and commitment not to abuse. This is the way that all relationships should be viewed…our relationship to crystals, animals, plants, the Earth, the Cosmos, to each other, and to ourselves.

Cooling Crystals to Beat the Summer Heat Plus New Crystal Friend Fun
With the heat “on” and people sharing how hot it’s been with summer kicking in (wishing things would cool off a bit), I thought I’d share this article I wrote a few years back about how choosing a crystal for its calming properties can help soothe your summer heat experience and help return balance and harmony to your life.
You can read it here: Beat the Summer Heat – Cooling Crystals that Soothe the Mind, Body and Soul
Every little bit of support we can get is helpful right? And when we’re feeling like a lot is going on in our lives, coupled with the temperatures rising, it can sure be nice to alleviate hitting the “boiling point.” 🙂
I’ll always share how I find crystals to be amazingly supportive friends and I’ll continue to provide supportive information, as well as steward crystals, as long as I’m guided to and people are desiring the connections.
That being said, the crystal friend fun continues with some more new additions to the Crystal Illumination family. You’ll find that I will be continually adding new crystalline energies (including Crystal Illuminations sacred paintings, as well as individual crystals) to my Etsy Shop as I have time to post them.
Some of the new crystals featured include two new pendants that I just adore and two magical Moldavite (as you see pictured here – click to enlarge), as well as Andaras, and some animal totem stones. Not to mention of course there are a variety of other crystal friends for individual needs…all potent, precious, and perfectly attuned to the current energies, as well as embody the “cooling” and calming effect that was mentioned in the article above.
You’ll discover crystals for all price points and desires, including very high end to extremely affordable. To see more images of the featured pieces you see here, visit the link below.
You can find them here: Crystal Illumination Etsy Shop
Everything is intuitively chosen for the vibrational frequency each crystal friend emanates and infused with Reiki Love.
If you have any questions or are particularly interested in a specific crystal you may not see in the shop, you can message me at tania@taniamarie.com and I’d be happy to assist in helping you find something perfect for you.
New Crystals Now Available
Having discovered the power of crystals in my own life, drawing upon lifetimes of work with them, and how much they can support and assist us into our wholeness, part of my work has been to steward and vibrationally support specific crystals and connect them with their keepers. I’ve also come to see that the powerful crystals that remain with me, have in mirror to my own expanded work, reflected that they will collectively be working with others alongside the work they do with me.
I’m very excited about the messages in terms of this that I’ve received while in Bimini over last week’s retreat and having seen how the crystals I brought with me (as I do each time on sacred journeys) have assisted others and the collective energy we are working with, it’s really something I embrace wholeheartedly.
That being said, I am also happy to announce that there are several new crystal friends available in my Etsy Shop – Crystal Illumination – where you can find an array of crystal friends from Andaras, pocket animal totem stones I recently picked up (rabbits of course are available, as I felt guided to bring a bit of their magic to you, having come to know their magic in my own life), the highest quality Moldavite, Aquamarine, Lemurian Seed Crystal, Tibetan Quartz, and more, including Crystal Illuminations sacred paintings.
Everything is intuitively chosen for the vibrational frequency each crystal friend emanates. Keep checking back, as there will be more crystal friends and crystal paintings once I have time to post and get things up, as well as complete creations.
If you have any questions or are particularly interested in a specific crystal you may not see in the shop, you can message me at tania@taniamarie.com and I’d be happy to assist in helping you find something perfect for you.
Wednesday Cutoff for Orders Before I Fly Off to Bimini
This is just a quick update about my Etsy shop, Crystal Illumination. There are new crystal friends (including new Andaras) in the shop to explore since last I posted about new items. I’m so happy when I see crystals off to their new homes.
If you see one that you feel a sacred contract with, let me know.
I love stewarding crystals and working with crystals to energetically prepare them before they are ready to go to their new keepers. Fostering crystal friends is part of my path that I take very seriously and intuitively choosing certain crystals, whether for myself, for the Crystal Illuminations paintings, or solely to bridge over to their new keepers, is part of lovingly supporting them into energetic activation so they are ready for their bigger service to the collective.
Since I will be away in Bimini hosting the upcoming Summer Solstice Rhythm of Renewal Retreat and will not be online during that week, so I can unplug and focus on the energies, I will not be able to ship out any orders that take place while I am away until I return on Monday, June 24th.
If you see something you’d like before then, all orders need to be in by Wednesday June 12th of this week, otherwise, anything after Wednesday will ship out at the beginning of the week I return, either on Monday, June 24th or Tuesday, June 25th.
The same goes for any of the offerings I have. I will not be able to fulfill any orders until I return, unless in by this Wednesday.
Thank you for your understanding and when I return I will have more new items in the coming weeks.
If you have any questions on anything you see or would like to see, you can email me at tania@taniamarie.com
Upcoming Crystal Illuminations to Feature Crystal Discoveries Reflecting Collective Shifts
I remember when I first discovered Moldavite several years ago around 2006, and the amazing impact it had in my life. Finding a stone that was of extraterrestrial origin that integrated high-vibrational Earth consciousness, felt so aligned for me. Not to mention, I was excited about its powerful energy that helps the opening of your Cosmic Heart and supports making major shifts.
You see featured here in this post one of the most amazing and highest guality Moldavite in my collection – a super fine specimen that is out of this world both in energy and rarity. You can see the way that Moldavite goes from a very dark green when just held and not in the light, to a very luminescent and translucent light green when held up to the light. Amazing!
In my post a couple of years ago on Moldavite I spoke about how it “is a definite and powerful Chakra opener and activator, particularly resonating with the Heart, 3rd Eye, and Crown Chakras. Although its energy tends to first move to wherever it is most needed in the physical and etheric bodies, it will settle and center in the heart. Moldavite is a great stone to work with on a personal and collective level in your healing work, practices, and meditations. Its transformative qualities, begins a process of energetic resonance throughout one’s entire being, thus raising the vibration. There are many benefits of this stone, and exposure to it, including, activating the dream state when worn while sleeping, helping one to acclimate to the Earth plane environment if feeling not part of this world (especially in the case of Star Children), helps foster a deeper level of compassion and understanding for the human realities of the physical plane, aids in expansion of consciousness and rapid transformation in one’s life – aiding the release of those things that do not serve one’s highest path, visionary experiences, increased clarity, vibrational raising of both yourself and the Earth, energy cleansing, strengthens, aids in self discovery and enlightenment, cosmic and crystal consciousness, expansion, and even contact with interdimensional energies, and the list goes on…”

And as the years roll on, more and more new powerful and magical crystal and stone friend discoveries continue and their discovery is always divinely aligned with personal and collective needs that support the vibrational shifts currently being integrated, and some times coming in ahead of time to start being prepared energetically to be there when others are ready.
For a while I had not been acquiring any new crystals, as I had acquired quite the collection over the years enough to have my own mega-store. Lol! And over time most have found their homes I had helped prepare them for. I take my work as a crystal keeper very seriously and I honor the crystals and stones with utmost respect and love.
More recently I have been being led to channel through more friends, as an increase in conscious awareness and readiness steps up. And this has currently brought me to the creation of Crystal Illuminations, as well as bringing through powerful pieces that are ready for their roles.
Yesterday I was able to take a small break at the Gem Faire here, which is two minutes from my home, conveniently ;), and visited one of my favorite crystal suppliers solely. I have become very attuned, over time, to letting myself be guided only to where the vibrations resonate, especially where crystals are concerned.
Back in the day, when I first was exploring the crystal realm, I remember being overloaded and my energy being pulled every which way and being energetically through the roof because of all the crystal energy around at places like gem shows and crystal stores. It also took me time to learn to differentiate between crystals really “needing” to come home with me and those that were just vibing with me, and of course my own mind was making decisions rather than my heart.
I no longer experience this, as I have learned to become balanced and centered in my energy, finding grounding, and can tune in only to the vibrations of highest resonance that are calling while weeding out the rest through a funneled boundary. I also come equipped with my trusty pendulum and ask the important questions when I am feeling each crystal out energetically.
I was so focused in my mission at the faire to bring home the crystals ready for service through me, which made things easy and quick, that I had forgotten the feelings I used to experience. So it was interesting when I started hearing conversations from people feeling pulled all over and talking about how their pocket books were going through the ringer because of it. I also had opportunity to talk with one man who was fascinated with what I was doing and using my pendulum, and our conversation helped him to find what he was there for – he was new to the crystal world, at least in this life go around.
Then two women at the same area that I was at, who do different forms of energy work as their professions, were talking about all of the energy and feeling blown out and needing to ground. They were giving each other clearing with two giant Selenite wands from the man whose crystals we were browsing, running them along both sides of their body up and down.
We engaged briefly in conversation and then the woman asked if I wanted her to clear me of all of the energy and before I said anything, the crystal keeper of the shop, who I believe is also a Reiki Master, said, “Her energy looks clear to me.” But I did welcome her to briefly run the Selenite wands down me, as I had taken notice of these wands before, and what I experienced was a raise in my body temperature like an internal heat thermostat rising rapidly and overheating, which for me translated into a feeling of an increase rather than grounding for me, which was opposite to the effects they were experiencing. 🙂 I think it also had to do with the fact that I had been holding a tray of all of the crystals I intuitively had chosen so far and combined with the Selenite wands, created that effect. I felt immediately back to my regulated balance, which to me spoke to my grounding abilities I’ve learned to center in. But interestingly, just previous to her doing this I had noted a stone that I was super drawn to and once she was done I picked it up, coming to find it was a very grounding and Earthy crystal and so this was perfect synchronicity.
It’s fun to observe the evolution of things over time. Needless to say, I found some amazing new crystals and stones that I’m very excited to be working with and bringing into their glory as Crystal Illuminations. Some of the pieces are well known friends of mine, but many are new and carry energy I believe will resonate immensely with many of you going through current shifts I know you are experiencing. I know I wanted some of all of them myself, but I was very poignant in only taking home what was for the highest good collectively.
Here are the crystal friends I brought home that you can look forward to (which include some new discoveries):
Ocean Jasper, Kambaba Stone, Rainbow Moonstone, Staurolite, Tiffany Stone, Blue Tiger’s Eye, Emerald, Lepidolite, Chiastolite, Amazonite, Charoite, Sunstone, Covellite, Prehnite, Preseli Stone, Natural Blue Topaz, Pyrrhotite, Que Sera, Green Garnet, Stibnite, Merlinite, Green Kyanite, Mystic Merlinite, Golden Healer Lemurian, Shaman Heart Lemurian, and Nuummite!
Wow is all I can say!

Malachite, Jade, Lapis Lazuli, Moldavite, Herkimer Diamond, various Fluorite, Lingam, Apache Tears, Selenite, Lepidolite, Sugilite, Libyan Desert Glass Tektite, Calcite, Fire Agate, Singing Quartz Wands, Tangerine Lemurian Seed Quartz, Pink Lemurian Seed Quartz, Faery Quartz, Angelite, Agate, Carnelian, Amethyst, Kyanite, as well as carved sacred Animal Guides, magical Andaras, and a special “Sea Treasures” sacred piece.
If any of these crystal and stone energies call to you, you can commission them by contacting me. A few may be available as stand-alone sacred healing crystals, but most will be infused into new sacred paintings as a source of light in your life, from the inside out.
I will be creating and offering them in the order of intuitive guidance. So if there is one in particular you specifically are drawn to, let me know and it can be created first. As you can see there are a ton here that will keep me very busy in creative channeling mode.
I’m so looking forward to it and sharing these new friends with you.
