I have suffered from depression since I was 16. After my daughter was born postnatal depression kept me company, undiagnosed until it was almost too late. By then I was deep into a downward spiral.
It's still there. I wonder why I feel the way I do when I am such a blessed person.
This is something I manage and deal with.
In 2012, when Hubby introduced me to crystals it changed my life. I finally found a way to manage my "moods" without antidepressants and valium.
Since then crystals have been a huge part of my life and I use it for most things.
One of the things I used to do with crystals, this was before I got hooked on Steemit, was make Orgonites.
Today I decided to step away from Steemit world and take solace in crystals and the creative process in making orgonite.
Making orgonite has always required a higher lighter energy. Which means if I want to play with it and make it I need to leave the shit somewhere else, otherwise my distraction will lead to not only mistakes but a crappy product energetically.
This is what I like about the creation process.
It forces me to step away from drama and move into a higher vibration.
It was just pure luck that Hubby came home yesterday with beautiful copped swarf that called out to me as if to say..
"Don't worry about them. Come play with me."
So today, I put my headphones on, sang and danced (things that make me happy and joyful) while I played with crystals, copper, resin and glitter - Oh so much glitter.
This was me this morning getting set up 😊 Picking out my Clear Quartz Point and wrapping it with copper. Trying to figure out which pyramid mold to go with.
The pyramid in different stages ❤
There's about 8 layers in this pyramid, I can't even remember how long it took to finish pouring but it's outside right now still curing.
I'm hoping it comes out ok tomorrow morning. 🙏
The Rainbow Charging Plate 💚
I've been wanting to make another charging plate for a while now and with a drum of resin in the cupboard still in it's box I figured I could afford to try my luck with it today.
It didnt turn out bad at all! As you can see it cured straight away. There was a point where I could smell it burning and was concerned it was going to crack, which it did, but its easily fixable.
I also made a few little bits like a koi fish, a cube and a pendant - all still outside curing.
Considering I havent poured resin in months Im surprised I didn't have more fails. That charging plate was a pleasant surprise. I thought for sure it would crack at the top but she didnt. Yay 😊
Right. Well I just wanted to get today's blog out to you guys and wish you all a great night/day/afternoon wherever you're at.
