Lunar Crystals

The moon represents emotion and powerful instincts, patterns, ancestral and karmic inheritances. For all moon signs it is recommended to meditate with a bloodstone at the full moon to uncover hidden unfulfilled desires that are controlling your life.

It is possible to reprogram patterns of behavior and facilitate healthy sources of nurturing.

Brow Chakra (Third eye)

The sphere of intuition and mental connection.  Imbalances here can create a sense of your being bombarded by other’s people’s thoughts or being overtaken by wild and irrational intuitions that have no basis in truth. 

Negative quality:  delusion.  Positive quality:  intuitive insight.

Purple stones like Amethyst and Sugalite strengthen and balance the brow chakra.

Yoga

The two forces of mind and prana maintain the rhythm of life and consciousness. Everything in the universe is evolving. Matter in its ultimate form is energy. The goal of yoga is to turn the body into solid energy. – Hatha Yoga Pradipika

Extended Hand-To-Big-Toe Pose
Utthita Hasta Padangustasana
Anatomical Focus:  Upper back
Benefits:  Strengthens the legs and ankles, stretches the backs of the legs, improves sense of balance.
Contraindications and Cautions:  Ankle or low back injuries 
  1. From Tadasana, bring your left knee toward your belly.
  2. Reach your left arm inside the thigh, cross it over the front ankle, and hold the outside of your left foot.  If your hamstrings are tight, hold a strap looped around the left sole.
  3. Firm the front thigh muscles of the standing leg, and press the outer thigh inward.
  4. Inhale and extend the left leg forward.  Straighten the knee as much as possible.  If your're steady, swing the leg out to the side.  Breathe steadily; breathing takes concentration, but it will help you balance.

The Angel by William Blake

I Dreamt a Dream! what can it mean?
And that I was a maiden Queen:
Guarded by an Angel mild;
Witless woe, was neer beguil'd!

And I wept both night and day
And he wip'd my tears away
And I wept both day and night
And hid from him my hearts delight

So he took his wings and fled:
Then the morn blush'd rosy red:
I dried my tears & armd my fears,
With ten thousand shields and spears.

Soon my Angel came again;
I was arm'd, he came in vain:
For the time of youth was fled
And grey hairs were on my head

My friend the communist

Holds meetings in his RV

I can’t afford his gas

So I’m stuck here watching TV

I don’t have digital

I don’t have diddly squat

It’s not having what you want

It’s wanting what you’ve got

 

(Chorus:)

 

I’m gonna soak up the sun

Gonna tell everyone

To lighten up (I’m gonna tell ‘em that)

I’ve got no one to blame

For every time I feel lame

I’m looking up o I’m gonna soak up the sun

I am going to soak up the sun

I’ve got a crummy job

I don’t pay near enough

To buy the things it takes

To win me some of your love

Every time I turn around

I’m looking up, you’re looking down

Maybe something’s wrong with you

That makes you act the way you do

Maybe I am crazy too

 

(Chorus:)

 

I’m gonna soak up the sun

Gonna tell everyone

To lighten up (I’m gonna tell ‘em that)

I’ve got no one to blame

For every time I feel lame

I’m looking up o I’m gonna soak up the sun

I am going to soak up the sun

 

I’m gonna soak up the sun

While it’s still free

I’m gonna soak up the sun

Before it goes out on me

 

Don’t have no master suite

I’m still the king of me

You have a fancy ride, but baby

I’m the one who has the key

 

Every time I turn around

I’m looking up, you’re looking down

Maybe something’s wrong with you

That makes you act the way you do

Maybe I am crazy too.

 

(Chorus:)

 

I’m gonna soak up the sun

Gonna tell everyone

To lighten up (I’m gonna tell ‘em that)

I’ve got no one to blame

For every time I feel lame

I’m looking up o I’m gonna soak up the sun

I am going to soak up the sun

 

I’m gonna soak up the sun

Got my 45 on

So I can rock on.
