Well it's been another crazy week. For some reason none of us have slept well. It's not only the weather that's changing. Change always brings up attachments that try to stop us moving on. Case in point ~ although it's terribly convenient for me to live over the Shop, I've long wanted to move out so I can have an actual life. A big obstacle has been my attachment to all the stuff I've accumulated living here. Last night I had a massive insight. Just leave it all ! ( OK not the crystals ! ) That's what I did when I left UK to arrive here in Australia with just one hold-all.

Nevertheless, looking back, I've got a lot done this week ~ just check out the
LATEST JEWELLERY UPLOADS
Raw Stone ...
As you’ve probably noticed, all the new Moonstone has now been uploaded - after two days intense work with camera, caliper, notepad and uploads ! It can't be done more quickly because each piece is unique and so often I'm drawn into writing a few personal words about it.
One thing I noticed this time is that a lot of the new Moonstone has clearly defined strata - light blues, indigo and gold. I see these as pathways through emotional situations. Moonstone is of course a wonderful stone for expanding your emotional intelligence – but still we can get caught up in difficult situations and I f...
