Beamer 11 April 2017

Beamer, is a little Steatite 'Ivolian' skull created by Dutch carver Laurens Ivo Manus. He usually likes to communicate in rhymes and riddles. This communication began in the early hours of this morning.

'Three steps forward,

Two steps back,
Sometimes it's because we have forgotten something,
Sometimes it's because we missed something.

Some things are not meant to be remembered.
Things remembered are sometimes the things we most wish to forget.
Yet we still take those steps back...

Those forgotten things that we bring forward,
Does that make them memories?
Or simply things to bring into the Present Moment?
And if left there, they simply become tomorrow's memories...

Some things are not meant to be missed,
Things we missed are sometimes the things we most need.
So why did we miss them the first time around?

Those missed things that we bring forward,
Does that make them ignored?
Or simply bring them into the Right Moment?
Were they just 'out of place'?

Take your Time and slow your haste,
Don't let a single Moment go to waste.
Take your Time to ponder this,
Not one single Moment is amiss...'

Moonstone... February 2017

Moonstone was the stone for February, the 2nd EarthWork subject that was set for our FB Group, The Wisdom of the Skulls, to delve deeper into the Crystalline Kingdom, to further explore the relationship between crystals/stones and their habitat, how they form, why certain crystals are found in certain places on the planet, their function based on their geographic position etc.

This month I worked with with a single skully, Lola Imik, a Green Moonstone skully.

Moonstone is very much in it's Element working on it's own but will happily work with other Stones.

I asked Lola about Moonstone's function within Gaia. She responded that Moonstone is very much about Earth's Flow... particularly regarding Fluids... so is very primarily a 'Surface' crystal, in that, it works to promote Flow... extending that 'Aid' to Life-Forms that live on this planet.

Many Life-Forms are essentially made up of Water and Moonstone attempts to bring Harmony and Balance to the Flow within those Life-Forms... for those who are aware of Dr. Masuru Emoto's work, Emotions and Fluids go hand-in-hand... and it is this Relationship that Moonstone tries to Balance.

I asked her if it was any co-incidence that Moonstone should have come up just as the protests against DAPL at Standing Rock was ongoing. She replied that indeed this was the exact Moment that Moonstone needed to be truly understood. Those at Standing Rock understood the importance of Gaia's Waters... the Flow must Flow untainted...

Just as Hu-man Emotions are connected to their Flow so it is for Gaia. If you poison the Water you affect the Flow... it's akin to putting poison into your body... it affects the Function of the body. And not only does it affect the Fluids, it affects the Emotions.

This is one of the reasons that Hu-mans were so passionate about what was happening at Standing Rock. The Waters needed help and this affected the Resonance of the Fluids within those Hu-mans sensitive enough to feel the danger of this action. Just as Dr Emoto found that harsh words affected the Structure of Water... this Protest was more than just a Protest... it was an Emotional Response to Gaia's plight.

Lola explained to me that Flow needed to be free... you cannot seek to control the Flow. There are Ebbs and Tides and this is how is should be... you cannot have one without the other. As Tides go out, so must they come in. She said 'See how this is relevant to the Flow of Hu-man Fluids?'

I wondered about the different types of Moonstone, particularly the Rainbow/Blue that contain other Minerals (thinking here the little black flecks that are commonly seen)... Moonstone is formed in Layers, this again can be likened to the Hu-Man Emotional System, made of many Layers and once you peel away one Emotion, another surfaces to take it's place or Aid it's 'fellow' in bringing Balance to the Hu-man. OK, so that makes sense.

Then think on the inclusions and imperfections in Moonstone... see what that represents in relation to the Fluids of Life-Forms, Lola continued.

I particularly wanted to delve into the relationship between the Moon and the Tidal System on the Planet... all she was willing to share at this point was that the Moon acted like a kind of 'remote control'... something Gaia put in place to keep the Waters from wreaking havoc... Gaia's Waters are temperamental and sometimes in her Wrath she cannot control 'her' Emotions, she becomes tempestuous and full of fury (thinking unpredictable storms/tsunamis here), particularly when Hu-mans don't heed the Natural Order. The Moon acts as a safety valve if you like.

As a footnote... It seemed that not many felt able to participate in this month's theme so I came back to Lola to ask her if she could tell me why that might be.

Her response was that as she had told me earlier, you cannot seek to truly control the Flow. Likewise, Hu-mans will open up (let the Flow run) when they are ready. Because Moonstone is working on a Planetary Emotional Level, maybe some were not in the Right Moment to release that Flow as it would have affected their own Fluids. I can certainly relate to that as I found my own workings this month were restricted to this one conversation, I had many things going on at home that were affecting the whole family Emotionally. She finished rather cryptically with 'Think on this... a Whispering Scream versus a Screaming Whisper'. I am still pondering on that...

Aventurine... January 2017

The GridWork that our FB Group, The Wisdom of the Skulls, did in 2016 was replaced by a new type of working for 2017. It felt right to delve deeper into the Crystalline Kingdom, to further explore the relationship between crystals/stones and their habitat, how they form, why certain crystals are found in certain places on the planet, their function based on their geographic position etc.

Aventurine was the stone for January.

I finally have some time to write up my 'findings'...

I worked with Nibiru, my purple Aventurine skully, this month... along with tumbles in Yellow, Orange, Peach, Green & Silver...

The first thing that became apparent was that Aventurine is a Nurturer and that wherever it is located in the world it's main 'Mission' appears to be that of Support... wherever it is required it will be there to lend a hand...

Aventurine likes to work alongside other stones, in fact it seems 'happiest' when it IS surrounded by other crystals. Evenly distributed around the world, makes it reasonably easy to get hold of.

I asked Nibiru about the many different colours of Aventurine and why some stones are available in so many hues.

The response was that Gaia 'placed' crystals much as we work with a Chakra system... certain colours will form in certain places where they will benefit from that Colour Frequency.

Remember, technically, colour doesn't exist (well physically anyway). It is created by our brain trying to make sense of Light Signals it receives via our eyes. Which got me thinking about the significance of the actual colours of crystals when they see the Light of Day...

So were the colours of the stones already decided when Gaia created them or could they morph to what was needed when extracted from beneath the surface? From what I could gather from Nibiru, it was the latter. Perhaps this is why new combinations/hues of crystals are being discovered all the time? Gaia is providing what the planet needs, where it needs it most.

This really got me thinking... a Chakra System within the planet? Why not? After all, we have many Ley Lines, Energy Streams... Vile Vortices, Earthquake Faultlines, Equatorial Lines etc etc.

So Aventurine could help Nurture the Balance that the planet requires using those 'Chakras'? Well, it's not quite as cut and dried as that and definitely needs some further exploration. I think I will be pairing Aventurine up with other stones and experimenting to see what kind of difference it makes to those stones for one thing.

But what about mining? Extracting those precious stones and distributing them elsewhere? Should we be doing this? The response was that although Gaia can Birth these beauties and places them at what Nibiru explained as their 'Origin Point', sometimes a little help is needed to get them to specific places. This is apparently why some stones are more readily available than others.

And the more commonly sourced crystals maybe have a bigger role to play than people realise? Aventurine is often overlooked in favour of more expensive, more 'attractive' crystals for sure...

This was the only exploring I was able to do with Aventurine as I came down with a nasty flu virus for 3 weeks or so. The responses I received, it seems, were not just confined to Aventurine itself and was actually more than I had anticipated in my first exploration...
