Hi Everyone and hoping you're all well. It's been a strange 6 months here at the Heart. Not a lot has changed on the surface, but underneath a lot has been going on and new stock is arriving. All this time Pluto was retrograde and there just seemed to be an endless series of unforseen obstacles to overcome. With Pluto now direct, during the Aries Full Moon things seem to be moving forward again. I think a lot of us have been feeling some stress, and it would be easy just to counsel "Stay Positive ! " But I think real life is more complex than that. Today a customer asked me to cleanse a br...

Shocking to realise that the Bangkok Gem Show is on and for the first time in 17 years I'm not there an hour before opening so I can get in first in order to hunt the best stuff ! But then my stock take reveals 3 years worth of Jewellery sitting on my shelves and the Thai Baht is so low that everything would cost 25% more ! But worry not, there's plenty in the pipeline ! There's an order of popular rings coming in at the end of the month, plus I've sent off a bunch of Quartz, Herkimers, Danburite, Emerald, Sapphire to make a new range of MJ Jewellery. For many years I've been in the habit o...

Hi Everyone , and hope you're all well and evolving happily :-) It's Sunday Evening here but despite it being a cold dark rainy day in Melbourne we've had a lovely bunch of customers and many spiritually turned on conversations. Days like this remind me why I'm still here after 33 years ! Crystal Heart seems to be rebooting itself and returning to those spiritual values with which it began. Yes it's a business. But gemstones developed and hold their value because their value is, as it has been since before money, their effect on our energy, on our soul. It's their beauty, their constant hig...

Hi Everyone and hope you're all feeling well. So sorry I've been slacking on these blogs. I've started many, but with all the intense transformation and changes going on I just couldn't agree with myself sufficiently to actually publish them ! Anyway things seem to be settling down now in my personal Universe and I'm glad to say I feel more relaxed and less driven. So I'm just back from a wonderful trip to Colombia. Mostly it was a relaxing holiday, but I did spent an intense week in Bogota looking for stones. As far as general crystals went the trip was a bust. I visited some lovely crysta...

Hi Everyone and hope you're all well. Sorry for the long delay. Shop has been busy, I've been trying to keep up with the uploads, but there's been a few other things distracting me. First, Happy Equinox ! The day and night achieved their biannual balance so all is well there, and now the days get shorter. In more ancient times of course this was a more serious affair of ensuring survival through the coming winter. Now we've got Electrickery and Supermarkets. Nevertheless we are still looking at a time of introspection, a little more time for ourselves which I am looking forward to. Back on ...

Hi Everyone and hope you're enjoying 2019 ! For me the aspects of creativity and freedom of expression are really coming through. I'm now taking 2 days off a week for the first time in decades to give me some space for that.  Valentine's day is looming closer, and it is of course a favourite day for the Heart. A day to celebrate and acknowledge the love in your life. A day also to celebrate your own Heart, to make sure you're giving as much to yourself as others. Usually our Shop Window is overflowing with Pink, the colour of Love ~ but Laura just created a beautiful window featuring Amethy...
