Nice Letters We Get

Maria,
Thank you once again for the fantastic cruise; Spain, France & Italy were awesome. I appreciate the opportunity of going. I'm still reeling thinking about the sights we saw and that view from the top of Mt. Vesuvius overlooking Naples was so fabulous. I felt such emotion while in the Coliseum at Rome, also in the cathedral in Monaco where Princess Grace is buried. And of course words can't describe the beautiful, remarkable interior of the Vatican. Such a wonderful trip!
Paula
I will treasure that special group/ship picture.

Dear Maria;
Not that I doubted you in anyway, but I moved home a couple weeks ago. Right before I moved I started talking with a station in Pennsylvania. I auditioned and interviewed and accepted the job yesterday. So look at that...back home on the east coast like you said. Thanks again and I hope all is well!

Dear Maria
I watched the election returns last night & told my friend that "we won't know who won the senate for awhile" - and today I see once again you hit it right on! You predicted delays with the election results last month. Nice job...The results also made more than a little happy.
B. from Royal Oak, MI

Hi Maria- I had a great time on the cruise. It was all I dreamed of and more. I really enjoyed everything I did and every one I did it with and all the wonderful people from all over. It was a trip of a lifetime for me. thanks a lot love ya, Charee

Protection Stones for the Zodiac
By Maria Shaw

So many people these days have become more and more aware of their aura, their energy fields and how their environment; both spiritual and physical can affect their general well being. Many of you readers already know how to balance your chakras. Some of you have had reiki and therapeutic touch treatments. Many more have enjoyed the healing benefits of massage. I have also used many of the techniques to raise my vibration and to increase my energy. Within the past few years, I have also begun using crystals and gemstones to enhance this process. Along with many of the other holistic ways to keep one's self safe, protected and energetically aligned, I have used some wonderful gemstones that work for protection, boost energy and keep energy vampires at bay!

How many of us work with energy vampires each day? Those co-workers or friends who may not mean to drain the lifeblood from us, but can really take away from our energy fields.

Then there are many folks who may be in challenging situations or must deal with combative people. They may certainly need to protect their energy fields. When the body, the mind and the spirit is aligned, things tend to work out all right. But when our energy so depleted or taken away from us, or someone send us negative thoughts, we can't seem to function at our highest potential, Thoughts are energy too. Think a positive thought, it comes back to you. A negative thought? The same thing!

I have found that when I wear or carry certain stones; I feel energized, happy, ambitious and at times, very safe and protected.

There are many gemstones and crystals used for protective purposes by millions of people from various belief systems, religions and walks of life. For instance, I have read that the Native Americans strongly believe in the protective power of black tourmaline. Here is a sampling of some of the most popular stones I have found to be helpful in offering healing and protection:

Kyanite - This stone is one of two stones that never need to be cleansed or cleared of negative energy. It is very powerful and carrying it, wearing it or meditating with it, helps draw your desires to you easily. Kyanite also helps calm you. Many wearers say that is helps with anger management. Some people use it to help clear an angry environment in their home or office. Place it in the center of your desk or room to help clear the energy of negative vibrations.

Black Onyx - This is also a stone that helps keep negative energy away from you. It can be used to deflect or absorb the negativity of others, So rather than your energy field absorbing another person's negativity, the black onyx will absorb it and keep it away from you.

Black Tourmaline - This stone is used to repel and protect against negativity. It keeps one from being a victim. If anyone is sending you negative thoughts, it will stop them in their tracks. It is a special stone for the Native Americans who use it to dispel spells directed at them. It is said that at the same time, black tourmaline promotes positive energy to the wearer and increases their well being. This stone also protects from negative entities in the spirit world that may be haunting your house or trying to attach themselves to you.

Jet - This can be used to dispel fearful thoughts and protect the owners against violence. This mineral aligns with the base chakra and stimulates the waking of the kundalini.

Red Jasper - A strong protection gemstone, red jasper is known to protect against hazards of the night. Jasper is one of the oldest known gemstones. It is mentioned in the Bible several times. It is especially good to place in a child's room who is afraid of the dark. For people who do not like being in a house at night by themselves, this stone will relieve fear. Red jasper is also said to help balance energy in the body.

Pyrite - This gold stone makes a wonderful energy shield, blocking out negativity from various sources. It energizes the area where you place it (such as on a desk where you work) Use this stone to overcome lethargy and fatigue.

I tell my clients the best way to gage if a gemstone will work for them and compliment their energy field is to see what they are most drawn too. I sell crystals and gems at expos and fairs and I often find a certain piece will sit for weeks until the "perfect" and rightful owner will claim it. Our body, our sprit knows what we need to heal and often times someone will be immediately drawn to a specific stone and feel as if they "just have to have it." Also, if the stone heats up in your hand or you feel energy from it, that is often an indication that specific crystal will work for you. Some people say a person doesn't choose the crystal, the crystal chooses you. Interesting, isn't it?

Here are some protection stones and gemstones that vibrate to each sign of the zodiac. Check for yours!
Aries - Jasper, diamond
Taurus - Carnelian, emerald
Gemini - Aquamarine. Apache tears
Cancer- Black Onyx, moonstone
Leo - Jade, ruby
Virgo - Sapphire, kyanite
Libra - Tourmaline, opal
Scorpio - Agate, malachite
Sagittarius - Lapis Lazuli, Blue Topaz
Capricorn - Turquoise, garnet
Aquarius - Clear quartz crystal, amethyst
Pisces - Amber, coral

Happy Birthday Sagittarius
November 22-December 21

You can thank your lucky stars this month and as a matter of fact for the next eleven months too. Sagittarius are working their way into one of the luckiest cycles in over a decade! Jupiter, your ruling planet and the "bestower" of "once in a lifetime" opportunity knocks on your door for an extended visit November 24th. He's a welcome houseguest, bringing all sorts of good fortune and opportunities for financial gain, career advancements, passionate love, exotic trips and so much more. Early in the year, you can expect money gains. Late winter is the perfect time to plan a romantic getaway. By spring, it's time to move or spruce up your home. In June, love is the air and you're walking around with your head in the clouds. By late August, a casual relationship could turn serious. And just a few weeks later, there will be a major career decision to make. Beginning September 7th 2007 and for little over two years, you will either rise to great heights on the job or say adios to your current gig. This could be a time when all of your hard work finally pays off. However, if you are in a dead end job, expect some shake-ups. You may find yourself out of work and looking for something new. Which, in the long run, will prove to be the perfect position anyway. Consider the temporary turmoil a blessing in disguise! 2007 looks great. Expect nothing less than the very best. You deserve it!

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday! I just want to say I am so very thankful for your support and kindness over the past year. I feel extremely blessed to know so many wonderful people and be a part of their spiritual journey. Take care and hope to see many of you this month in Michigan or next month in Minnesota.
