Crystal Elixirs Available


crystal elixirIf you’re interested in a special Crystal Elixir, message me.

I have enough of my potent and magickal batch I made Winter Solstice/New Moon for just 2 more people in a dropper form, as seen in photo, and 1 in a spray form.

I didn’t realize how large the mother batch was that I made, as I have plenty for me and was able to give some to several people already. It’s like the gift that keeps on giving. LOL!

I can also make custom elixirs.

All of these are $22 each + shipping.

We have a New Moon coming up this Tuesday, which would be another potent time for creating one.

Creating Alchemy with Crystal Elixirs of Liquid Light

Tomorrow’s Crystal Magick Workshop is going to a blast because one of the things I teach is how to create these lovelies. So perhaps my students will enjoy making some of their own this New Moon!!

Creating Alchemy with Crystal Elixirs of Liquid Light

Herkimer Diamond and Andaras in the light

I shared about crystal elixirs quite a while back, but felt inspired to again.

On the Winter Solstice New Moon of 2014, I was guided to create a new crystal elixir, which I’ve been taking since Christmas Eve. I hadn’t made one for some time now, so I found the intuitive nudge to be important to follow, which came out of the blue.

I’ve made different combinations before, some of which had many crystal essences providing their love. And each of them for different purposes that were aligned with and appropriate for that current time period they were created and my/others’ needs.

But this one I created on the Winter Solstice I knew was to be of a very special essence that would support taking things to another level.

It is a very pure, potent, extremely high vibrational essence, created only from three crystals that communicated to me their desire immediately:

  1. A very powerful, clear-essence Herkimer Diamond with millions of years old, alive water bubble inside of it and tiny rainbows
  2. An Opalescent Pink Andara with rainbow inside of it that embodies the nature of the Sacred Feminine, the highest heart wisdom, great mystery of the Shekina, energy of the dove and rose, wisdom of the inner Sophia, embodiment of the Goddess in form
  3. A Celestial Gold Andara with crystal clear purity that embodies pure light at the atomic level, represents a grand shift from a world of reflections to radiant light

Feels like liquid diamond light essence filled with love.

I did a sacred crystal elixir ritual that day of the Solstice New Moon, leaving the creation out in the garden for 24 hours to work its alchemy under the Moon and Sun light. These crystal elixirs contain the “vibration” of the intent, infusions, and energies present within the crystals, what I infuse, and from the elements, and energies abound that are invited.

I directed energy into the elixir from outside the glass bowl with three other very special and powerful crystals of mine…two healing wands – a Faery and Lemurian/Atlantean one, and one crystal that channels my beloved Nestor, whom not only carries a balanced energy infusing Cosmic and Earth and sacred masculine and feminine, but also is pure, unconditional love and wholeness embodied in the alchemy of our connection and her love for all.

These three crystals were placed in a triangular formation pointing in to the essence mixture, to activate and draw more energy to it, infusing a lot of magick and intention that I programmed and invited.

Three seemed the magickal number, on many levels, including transmutation and the Middle Way.

Crystal elixirs are very powerful and not necessarily for everyone, unless you’re accustomed to the energy or are ready and inviting of the changes they can facilitate. Even how much is used, when to use it, or whether to use it externally, internally, or in your environment, are all things to consider.

I’ve found them to be very aligned for me, as their energy is not dense like other forms we can take (ex: supplements, powders, etc) that may not be as aligned with our bodies anymore, and don’t create results anymore.

But they ARE powerful. The instant I placed one drop on my tongue of this essence, I felt altered. And since taking it, things have been shifting a LOT internally, supporting a recalibration on the inside, that is going to take shape and manifest on the outside eventually. Right now a lot is percolating internally and being cleansed, which is helping to sift through things to the purest alignments only. That is exactly what I intended and welcome, however that needs to manifest or whatever the process is to get there.

But that may not be such a welcome experience for everyone.

This particular elixir is working at a very accelerated vibration that the parts of you will need to catch up to in order to be in harmonious balance and flow at the same level – this may induce what is like a cleansing, detoxing, or reorganization that can be as easy and as graceful as you are ready to embrace or that matches the work you’ve done to prepare for it, but there are other elixirs I’ve created that have been focused on grounding, integrating, or nurturing specific energies only.

Likely, if you’ve been drawn to a crystal elixir like this, then on some level you are ready, even if you find yourself fighting it, and at any moment you can shift the experience of that recalibration and aligning taking place when you fully take accountable responsibility.

Crystal elixirs are one way to assist the integrative journey of shifting that our DNA restructuring has been undergoing. Some people area also drawn to flower essences and essential oils (to name a couple).

Many may be experiencing blow outs or increased healing crises at this time and may find that the old ways that used to work in helping to heal, no longer are, and alternative ways of nurturing support, more aligned with our current energy may be of more benefit now. This is because our bodies are operating at a different frequency and denser things no longer match our new vibrations. The DNA shifts are raising our frequencies and energies into becoming more crystalline and light form.

And our temple bodies need fortifying to match the frequency of our vibrations and to receive the proper rebuilding reflections for the newly created divinity of being we are becoming.

Crystal elixirs, which I like to refer to them as (but many call them gem elixirs) are a means by which we can create essences of the metaphysical properties that the crystals are, through a process that utilizes these as energies in a charged elixir – a liquid mixture created intentionally that can be taken internally, applied or sprayed externally on us or in our immediate environment.

They are infusions of one or more crystals, spring or distilled water (I used the highest level of alkaline/ionized water) combined with the power of the sun, moon and any other special magickal goodies you feel drawn to incorporate into the process. They can be stored for longer durations by placing them in glass bottles (some come with droppers or sprays) and mixed with a very small percentage/ratio of alcohol (usually vodka) or apple cider vinegar – just enough to preserve it only, then stored in dark areas away from direct light and heat.

You can make a mother batch, which I did, and then create smaller bottles to use for different purposes or to share with others.

Since supplements are more dense than my current needs call for, more homeopathic and crystalline essences are much more aligned and of benefit to me right now.

These crystal elixirs are similar to flower essences in the way that they are made so that they contain the “essence” of the vibrations of the chosen crystal and stones that are used. Each crystal and stone holds different metaphysical properties and have energies that work to support and empower different things.

These high quality crystal essences work in harmony with the body by interacting with our bio-sheath and chemical and energetic physiology, and are natural and self-adjusting. When the crystals are activated by natural sun or moonlight they transfer their vibrational signature into water, creating a safe, effective supportive remedy that can be used in conjunction with, and in complement to, all other healing modalities.

They are not meant to replace professional medical advice. They need to be used with care. They need to be made with crystals that are not water-soluble and with only the safest, non-toxic crystals in order to ingest them – meaning they do not contain mercury, arsenic, copper, or other toxic substances. You can look them up in a good mineral guide if in question. They work well with children, plants and animals too.

Externally they can be gently sprayed over the body, in a room, or any space where the energy is needed. They can also be applied to specific body parts or areas needing extra healing or empowerment.

As you consume the elixir over time, the vibrational essences work on the root cause of “dis-ease” to support clearing of the issue that originally created it so that the “dis-ease” can be relieved. They can be made for immediate consumption or can be preserved and used sublingually.

The magick is in the choosing, or being chosen by, the most potent crystals for you and the intents and sacredness created around the process, as it is a VERY sacred process indeed and a very special bonding relationship that is created between the crystals and the person helping to alchemically brew and program them. So, the most important part is the crystals from which the essence will be made and there are different ways, as shared, that you can figure this out, including kinesiology testing.

They can be used singly or in cool combinations. Mixing them can really make for some potent elixir magick! This also makes it easier than having to make a lot of separate ones and taking a number of them for the desired results.

Again, crystal elixirs can be created for immediate consumption, in preserved sublingual form, or into sprays, essential oils, bath, body, or ritual oils, and used for any sacred healing purpose you desire.

I know that crystal elixirs are exactly the right energy vibrations for me to work with right now that reflect and align most optimally at this time, and are most supportive to the integration process I am in. It’s important to trust your intuition for guidance as to what is best for you.

Given my love for and relationship with crystals, this is a natural process for me and one I honor and do not take lightly as a crystal keeper, guardian, and caretaker of the Earth and her children. I feel that it is important to ask the crystals if they want to work in partnership to create an elixir, as afterall, it is their essence that they are sharing with us. And then I like to create a sacredness and reverence around the ritual creation – cleansing, charging, and programming the crystals, at their welcome to do so, and nurturing them through the whole process, since they will be nurturing me from the inside out.

In this way I can ensure having happy crystals and that makes for a beautiful partnership in crystal alchemy elixirs. 🙂

 

Crystal elixirs are something I teach in the Crystal Magick and the Journey Within: A Creative Exploration for Personal Alchemy Workshop.

More Free Gifts! This Month’s Nature Immersion Challenge Just Got Sweeter


Lynne and Tania

Lynne and Tania at Crystal Cove Beach during this last March’s Reiki Renewal Retreat

 

This just in!

A wonderful Reiki student of mine, dear friend, and banana co-conspirator (you can catch a glimpse of that story in her interview), Lynne Day, whom you remember from one of my interviews “Forging Your Own Dream Life” and who is now also an RMT, believes so much in what I am sharing with this month’s “Nature Immersion Challenge” that she has offered to also gift her services of a distant Reiki session, on top of the gifts I’m offering, to the three people chosen!

Woohoo!!

That means you could end up with a double whammy of Reiki support, plus who knows what else, just by loving yourself and Nature this month!

Lynne knows the importance and healing effects of our connection with, and quality time spent in, Nature, as an Adventure Guide herself who spends every day outdoors.

Thank you Lynne for your generosity!

If you don’t know what I’m talking about, please check out my post today on October’s Nature Immersion Challenge and dive into Nature with us this month!

All details can be found at the link above.

And if you think it’s a challenge to find time for Nature for people who live in big cities, you can connect with Nature in a variety of meaningful ways that will positively impact your life.

Every little bit of time connecting with Nature is valuable.

I have an amazing woman who has joined this challenge that is in a nursing home and she said she would do her best on the days her husband doesn’t visit her and takes her outside, to tune in through her room’s window.

On top of that, I gave her suggestions of having her husband bring her a plant/plants and/or flowers she could spend time tuning in with, touching, digging her hands in the soil, receiving and giving love and healing to, along with finding a rock that speaks to her and holding it in her hand daily to tune in to Earth, playing music of Nature sounds daily in her meditative time….etc.

There are many ways! And it will all benefit you greatly!!

So I hope you will join us this month, especially if you’re a “newbie to Nature time”, as my sweet friend Kelly Vivace stated today. 🙂

 

October’s “Nature Immersion” Challenge

If you don’t receive my monthly newsletters, you may have missed this month’s special, which is another inspired challenge.

If you are interested in receiving my newsletters, which contain monthly reflections, opportunities, and updates, you can sign up for it under the “Announcements” section here where it says “Join the Mailing List”:

 www.taniamarie.com 

I loved how the “Dream Challenge” went in August, and this month will see another interactive month that I have received guidance to put out there to you.

It’s called, the Nature Immersion Challenge.

Since I’m all about wanting to see people thrive, as well as wanting to nurture a return to harmony with Mother Earth, this month I’ll be gifting people based on the following guidelines (PLEASE READ ALL OF THE GUIDELINES AND NOTES THROUGH TO THE END FOR DIRECTIONS ON HOW TO TAKE PART IN THIS, IF YOU SO CHOOSE):

1) You must spend AT LEAST (but not limited to) 15 minutes of quality time in Nature every day this month (starting today, the 3rd or the first day you receive this invitation). This can be anything that you do where you completely shut off all other aspects of life, including technology, and immerse yourself in some meaningful and purposeful way with Nature. This could be anything from a hike, a walk on the beach, meditating on the grass, taking a walk in your neighborhood, digging your feet in the dirt or sand, hugging trees, gardening, sitting in silence on your balcony taking in the sun and air and sending energy to the Earth and receiving her love, spending time with animals, volunteering some where to assist Nature…you get the idea…

2) You must document what you do each day during these 15 minutes (just a brief sentence will suffice), including the time of day you did it (as a short log of the month you’ll be sharing later)

3) I’d like you to please write a few sentences at the beginning, on the 3rd (or first day you begin), of how you’re feeling in your life currently and take one photo of yourself

4) I’d like you to please write a few sentences at the end of the month, on the 31st, of how you’re feeling in your life at that point and anything relevant you feel to share, plus take another photo of yourself

5) You’ll then send me your short daily log, including your brief summary of how you felt and your photo from day one, as well as your brief summary of how you feel and photo on the last day

Tania Marie by Rod Foster 2 (1)From any entries I receive, I will then read through all of them and on the 1st of November (or thereabouts, depending on how long it takes to go through them all) gift 3 people surprise gifts, which could be one or more of anything from a free crystal, free Reiki session, free inscribed book, free signed print, major discount on an upcoming event, lunch with me, on me (if you’re local or passing through the area), and/or other free goodies.

PLUS! This just in….a wonderful Reiki student of mine and dear friend, Lynne Day, whom you remember from one of my interviews “Forging Your Own Dream Life” and who is now also an RMT, believes in what I am sharing here so much that she has offered to also gift her services of a distant Reiki session to the three people chosen! Woohoo!! Lynne knows the importance and healing effects of our connection with, and quality time spent in, Nature, as an Adventure Guide herself who spends every day outdoors. Thank you Lynne for your generosity!

The gift and/or gifts will be intuited, based on the person and what I feel would be most supportive and aligned with you.

If only a few people take part, then the more chances of receiving gifts. However, this shouldn’t be something you do because of the gifts, but because you want to create positive change in your life that will benefit yourself, everyone around you, and the Earth at large.

The more time you spend in Nature, the more you start to see and feel from a different perspective, understand the connection between all things, and live with more compassion, grace, inspiration, energy, greater health, and a softer vibrational footprint. I’m supporting you with gifts because I care and I know what a difference this can make in your life. So any level of motivation that can assist you in making the changes you’ve been wanting to have in your life, I’ll do my best to support.

However, I’m hoping that more people will take on this challenge, especially people who don’t normally spend time in Nature, and are ready to make a dramatic impact in the quality of their life that has far-reaching effects.

You have nothing to lose and everything to gain!

It’s really easy and only takes 15 minutes a day!

If you say you don’t have 15 very easy and nurturing minutes then something’s gotta give at some point. Hopefully it won’t take a not so nice something in order to embrace 15 minutes and make the time for yourself and Earth. You both deserve it!

If you think it’s a challenge to find time for Nature for people who live in big cities, you can connect with Nature in a variety of meaningful ways that will positively impact your life.

Every little bit of time connecting with Nature is valuable.

If you need ideas on how to incorporate the 15 minutes, let me know! I have a beautiful woman in a nursing home who’s participating and I provided her some additional suggestions on how to deepen her connection to Nature even from the comfort of her room and bed when she’s not able to get outside with her husband on his visits. So yes, anyone can do this!

I hope you’ll join us and hopefully you’ll continue forward with this long after this month.

There are many ways! And it will all benefit you greatly!!

All entries must be sent to me at tania@taniamarie.com.

If you are interested in taking part in this, please email me ONLY ONCE AT THE START of your journey and let me know that you are going to be partnering with Earth in this process. 

After that, YOU DON’T NEED TO SEND ME ANYTHING UNTIL THE LAST DAY – the 31st – when you’ll be sending me your full log and photos as described above. 

Enjoy your time in Nature!!

Earthing for Earthlings


Your relationship with Earth affects everything. Return to natural harmony. Nature heals.

Love this post and so happy about this upcoming movie and the important message I hope many will embrace. It’s not a mystery that getting back to nature and honoring Terra reflects on your own temple body and the collective quality of life. But if you doubted it, now there’s more evidence to help you understand and perhaps make different life-changing choices.

Thanks to Ann Kreilkamp for sharing this.
