Weaving Dreams and Dancing On MoonlighT

goddessadornments — Mon, 20 Apr 2009 22:16:50 +0000

A major source of inspiration for this pendent has been an ongoing fascination of mine working in the Dream Realm. I love the moment right before I fall asleep, when my consciousness is completely relaxed and my body goes into paralysis. I teater back and forth, in between dreams and reality…this is the point lucid dreaming can happen, it takes a while to activate, but when you do drifting into a dream state will be so much more enjoyable.

This pendent, Dream Weaver, was designed to aid one in a journey of working with lucid dreaming AND/OR simply getting a more restful nights sleep. I mixed many dream stones together…

Lepidolite, the main stone in the pendent, is said to work on the level of emotions, easing stress and mental exhaustion in your waking life. Improving self esteem and self empowerment. Helps to stabilize mood swings and smooth out sleep disturbances.
Moonstone, balancing hormonal shifts. Enhances psychic abilities. Helps one to understand emotions, dreams, self discovery.
amethyst, third eye opener. Meditative. Improves insight and intuition. Relaxing.
Hematite, grounding and clear thinking.

Getting a restful night sleep is important to every aspect of our lives. Everything is connected in the Dream Weaver Web.

Passage to India

goddessadornments — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 20:06:28 +0000

I was so deep in trance when creating this piece that I believe I created some sort of portal to India. I saw visions of bubbly rooftops outlined with exotic sunsets. Rich colors and busseling streets. I don’t pre-plan wha t will happen when I do wire work, the shapes just organically happen and the nature of the stones make them all unique. However, in the case of this pendent, the moment I saw the rounded temple shape, I knew the theme would be India and the rest was inspired. I won’t go into detail about how long it took me to make (okay all day), but I will say that they started out as earrings, and I thought yeah right I’m not going to make another one…I’m gonna go make some curry!!!

P.S. Turquoise is said to be Good Luck to Travelers!!

Spiraling into Suductive Pendents

goddessadornments — Mon, 06 Apr 2009 21:41:51 +0000

In recent days I have decided to expand on a new jewelry idea (or at least new for Goddess Adornments). It is…making pendents!!! Thus far, I have always been attracted to complete the full necklace all the way to the clasp. Which I will still be doing when the moment is right.

I have realized what a great adventure it is to make just the pendent. Not only can I put more time and energy into a smaller section, but I love all of the illusionary benefits of working with wire. Of course, all of my pendents are made with sterling wire, oxidized and hand polished to bring out the detail in the wire work.

Today I ordered a bunch of hand dyed silk ribbon in beautiful colors to be placed with the pendents (I’ll show you a pick when they arrive). In addition to ribbon I will also be offering a selection of chain or leather cord. Look for such options in my etsy shop within the next couple of weeks. You will also notice within my shop a new section “seductive pendents” where you will see the pendents being added as they are made. Here is one to kick off this new phase rightly entitled “Spiral Seduction” Click HERE to read more about this pendent.

Tranquil Moon: Earrings for the Full Moon Woman

goddessadornments — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 22:37:24 +0000

As the moon waxes and wanes we are in constant reminder of our feminine energies rising and falling within. A “full moon woman” as I call it, is full of energy and life, multi-tasking and possibly mothering, either a child or a new idea or project. We are in full bloom, past the point of waxing crescent youth and not yet to wise crone. It is a beautiful and fulfilling place to be. One must be especially cautious at this time, however to seek the balance necessary to combat burnout and to live stable and free. Luckily there are a plethora of ways to go about balance. One tactic that I have found valuable is to have a constant reminder… of all that encompasses true presence. With true presence all else will come naturally. A reminder can come in any way shape or form. I like to double my odds with a reminder/energetic source, such as a crystal, herbs etc…

These earrings were made in honor of our womanly nature and our need for balance. They not only serve as a visual reminder of all of the majestic beauty that dwells within, but they also act as an energy source that can help to bring a sense of peace and serenity into our energy field and therefore all around us.

Tranquil Moon Earrings are one of a kinds, fresh out of the Goddess Adornments Studio, for more info about them click here!

Larimar Waters

goddessadornments — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 23:59:14 +0000

An incredible healing tool comes to us in the form of aquatic visions. Larimar, an extremely rare stone, found soley in just a small section of the Dominican Republic is said to hold powerful properties that can help heal and transform our lives. With growing popularity (and thus price), larimar is beginning to be seen all around the world and is especially desired for it’s completely unique “sun rays in water” appearance. But beyond it’s beauty is a vibration like no other. Larimar is said to be finely tuned to the human body and resonates with the 5th chakra, opening the gates of communication. And when worn by the same person consistently, the stone will adapt accordingly to individual needs. Naturally it elevates a higher and more mindful consciousness while supporting the mind body spirit connection. Because of the calming and meditative effects of the stone, it facilitates removal of self-imposed blockages and constraints, allowing one to move freely in life, without restraints. These are just some of the healing properties associated with Larimar, of course the best way to test out the many possibilities associated with larimar is to carry one in some way on the person, mindfully.

Larimar is commonly referred to as the Atlantis Stone because a wise profet once said that the Dominican republic is part of the continent of the lost city of Atlantis. And he claimed the stone would turn up there at the exact time it was discovered, 1974. People who hold a strong connection to Atlantis are said to be able to feel energies and decipher information through these stones. But that’s a whole other conversation!!!

In a tribute to Larimar, I created this magical seascape piece…click here for more info on the necklace

Full Moon Collage Inspiration

goddessadornments — Fri, 13 Mar 2009 19:55:14 +0000

Another creative outlet of mine (and there are many) are collages, or “Dream Boards”! You can use this tool for optimum manifestation of any aspect of your life and when your done, you’ll have a beautiful piece of art as a constant reminder of your goals and dreams. Or you can give as an affordable, thoughtful gift to a friend.

And of course, there is no better time to implement these internal visions than on the full moon, since that is the time the world is beaming with energy and fulfillment.

I got the idea for the dream boards a while ago, but was reminded by visiting the blogsite of Star Shyne Productions please visit her site for more creative awareness on the power of Dream Boards.

This one, shown here, is one a couple friends and I made. THis is only a small section of it, it actually is glued on my wall in my dining room, like wallpaper. How’s that for a reminder!

Aquamarine Flora Mandala

goddessadornments — Mon, 02 Mar 2009 22:19:42 +0000

Blessings to the March Birthdays out there!!! Aquamarine, with it’s tranquil oceananic vibes is known to be linked with the month of March. To anyone who has ever gazed into this stone can see why it’s name specifically means “aqua”-water “mar”-sea. Aquamarine has been used as a tailsman for all those who wandered the sea in ancient times, and is still used for protective water travels.

Aquamarine has many healing properties, including quieting and calming the mind, protecting against pollutants, clarifying perception, sharpens intellect, and clears confusion. On a spiritual level, because of it’s calming effect, it is known to be a great stone to wear during meditation as it invokes a higher state of consciousness. I have always associated aquamarine with opening and clearing the throat chakra, bringing communication to a higher plane. Bringing me to my next point, aquamarine is known to awaken love in a tired marriage. So if you want to ensure a long and happy marriage, maybe it would be extra insurance to adorn yourself with some aquamarine!!!

It is a great practice to wear aquamarine either on the heart chakra or on the ring finger.

To clean or recharge your aquamarine, place it in a glass dish of water and leave under the moonlight. In the morning, hold in your hands, close your eyes and align yourself with the stones energy. It will be more than happy to work with you!

This necklace made of aquamarine, blue apatite, iolite and all natural brass is availible at www.goddessadornments.etsy.com

Rainbow Awakening

goddessadornments — Fri, 27 Feb 2009 21:56:51 +0000

Ever have one of those days when just a glimmer of hope changed your whole perceptional reality? This week we had a rain spell up here in Northern California. It rained for three solid days. One evening we noticed the color change outside and stepped out to see a vibrant glorious rainbow! Oh, springtime bliss is upon us! I could see each rainbows end and all 5 miles of shifting color variance. Taking a deep breath, I realized how easy it is to get caught up our life story and how a phenomena such as a rainbow can pull us back into our true selves connected with magic and transformation.

The rainbow was followed by a magnificent sunset and my inspiration was surging. Thus, these new earrings, entitled, “Rainbow Awakening” were manifested. They are made from scratch from silver wire, hand hammered and oxidized to bring out an antiqued quality which I love. The “silver lining” is complimented by a shower of colored tourmaline, which I wire wrapped onto the frame. In the middle I hung only the most beautiful amethyst crystals…the jewels at the end of the rainbow!
