People raise peacocks for their feathers which the bird molts. The feathers become worn out and the bird needs new ones. It’s a naturall process. Peacocks make terrific guard birds too.
@@askthespiritguidesFor health reasons I can't easily go to Crystal shops I have still felt drawn to crystals in online shops but try to make sure ethically sourced a new online friend with simarlar health stuff has an ethically sourced online store using recycled ♻️ packaging but sadly is winding it down as too much with health. I previously planned an online store to include mostly crystal jewellery (uk spelling) but then my health nosedived I have hope future could bring improved health.
Beautiful broom! You can use any broom to sweep out bad energies. As you sweep say your intentions. Sweep out all the bad energies and invite good energies. Peacock feathers symbolize good luck and positive energy! What an exciting haul! Super cool!
That heart was raku fired, a Japanese technique for firing pottery. The gem looking stones are probably glass that were glued onto the clay piece after firing from the looks on them on my tiny screen. Ex pottery and art teacher here.
peacocks naturally shed their feathers. I have collected many that are displayed on my altar with other feathers. I've even made some earrings from smaller ones. Peacock feathers symbolize good luck, elegance, beauty, immortality, rebirth, royalty, wealth, or divine femininity. In Greek mythology, peacock feathers represent protection, while in Buddhism, they're associated with wisdom and enlightenment.
I am a rock hound and have too many to haul outside so I ring bells and smudge them often. They say the light of a full moon will cleanse thru the windows as well.
So smart to take a picture of the stone with the card. Wish I had thought of doing that when I bought my various stones. As I learn the names I could make a small identifying card and take their picture together. Thanks for that tip
Hi Karen - another Karen here. Love your new crystals. You are so right- the best way to "pick" a stone is to walk among them and see which call to you. As you do with your SG's, they will speak to you as you cultivate a relationship with them. A good way to do that is to hold your stones and say the wonderful Ho'oponopono prayer once or as often as you are called. I love my stones and have become certified in Taoist Stone Medicine. If you are interested in specific qualities of stones, based on ancient Taoist principles, I can give you a short rundown on your stones based on structure, color, 5 elements etc. and not just broad metaphysical qualities. This may help you pick stones to help with your readings. As you collect mugs and oracle decks, I collect stones😆.
I'm a crystal worker with a collection of over 300 crystals and gemstones. When my husband and I got together over 30 years ago, I taught him to say "crystals" instead of "rocks." He never travels without his rose quartz and amethyst. :)
This was lots of fun! I’m usually doing something in the kitchen or trying to get my steps in for the day when I’m listening. I never think your posts are too long.
Instead of wrapping paper, I use furoshiki. It’s cloth that can be used again for another gift or worn as a scarf or bandanna. It’s like giving a double gift. You can actually use a nice scarf or bandanna as furoshiki.
The immediate impression I got from your beautiful heart shaped tree stone was “as above so below, as within so without”. I absolutely loved everything you got Karen, & the selenite is very powerful, love that it’s a clearing broom. 2 things I can share about selenite: it’s one of the stones that you don’t want to get wet, & also it has incredible energetic clearing properties for your other stones & divination tools etc.🙏🏼💞 also I am assuming that the peacock feather was humanely obtained, as they shed them regularly.
Thank you so much for sharing. Very helpful. I wasn’t even thinking about using the broom for clearing my crystals and oracle decks. Love it. Does the broom itself need clearing of some sort? Perhaps my prayer and sitting on the windowsill would do it? 🤗❤️🤗❤️
@@askthespiritguides sunlight is a wonderful way to clear & reset anything, so is your intention while holding it. When I get new crystals I often will put them in my bathrobe pocket or under my pillow to fuse them w/ my own energy!🥰 as long as you have a good sealed window it should be OK, in my wonderful old house it may pick up moisture so I would be hesitant to have it there for any length of time.
I love crystals~ thanks for sharing your haul with us! Celtic (as in the Irish/Scottish culture) is pronounced with a hard C sound, just like the K in your name. I went on a cruise to Ireland and was schooled by a local. The basketball team pronounces it with a soft C like an S sound (cause they are wrong, LOL).
If you have any pow wows in your area check them out, usually they'll have native vendors that sell things you'd go crazy over. I haven't had a chance (or the money ) to go in a long time. It's the best place to find sage and sweet grass too. I bought some deer hide and made a small medicine bag to wear like a necklace. There was a man there that had a wolf dog and he had some of the fur that came off when he brushed them and sold it in small bags and put it in my medicine bag since my spirit animal is a wolf. If you go to a pow wow just remember not to walk across the round dance circle because it's blessed for the dancers. If you ever go to a baby shower, wrap the gift in a receiving blanket...it saves a tree and the mother can use it 😉
Love it. I have collected stones and crystals for years. I still know very little about them. I would have to look each one up. I have a lot of chakra balancing music and guided ones as well. Shiny & sparkly things always catch my eye, but I have never been “girly” in my life. All of the things you like and talk about are things I have always been drawn to. Native American culture is amazing and has intrigued me forever. My late husband passed in 2011 and I am now with a Native American partner so how nuts is that?
Love the broom and orca agate! It's a beautiful stone! It is actually named after the orca whale. Because that's what it looks like. I have been wanting one for a long time, but haven't seen one in shops near me yet.❤
I'm excited for you and your new crystals, Karen. Be careful, though. Remember the Star Trek episode, "The Trouble with Tribbles?" Don't be surprised if your little crystal collection multiplies! Anyway, I use sound to cleanse all my crystals. Tingsha bells, crystal singing bowls, Lovetuner whistle, etc.
You selected the#1 card and it also goes with the transition card in my opinion. The transition a butterfly goes thru to be in the next moment of life, year of life, president lol. I believe the blue in the center of the piece resembles the color for the throat chakra, which is also communication. Lastly, your car sounds in no way like any of mine, but the stray i feed was just asking for food, and when i heard your car i thought it was him. Silly cat ladies! Love your shares❤
Loved this, great choices hopefully the healing energies came through to us all a bit too. I think I'd better give the info below (thought best use an Irishman's comment I saw) that celtic in the context your using before someone Scottish, Irish Cornish or Welsh see's 😅 Luv 💖 & hugs 🤗 "American basketball team and a Scottish football team. Furthermore, aside from those two team names with the soft ‘c’ pronunciation, everyone in Ireland and (to the best of my knowledge) Scotland pronounces Celtic with a hard ‘C’ (Keltic) in every other situation."
Do you always drink coffee out of that mugs? I’m sober myself so I wouldn’t call that cocktails with Karen but I’ve been 19 years clean on New Year’s Eve
Well done many congratulations on such an amazing achievement .my husband was a dependency counsellor for 22 years working with people addicted to all kinds of substances and behaviours it's so good to hear about other people's success .
I love my rock store and I hold the rock and if I feel warm vibrations than that is the one I get… I have a flower agate and they are so pretty. I set out all of my stones/bracelets out on the window sill with every full moon to cleanse them.
Pretty red mug Karen snd don’t worry sbout the peacock feather , they gather them when the peacock slowly sheds its feathers every year , and they grow in all new feathers over time !! You got quite a haul to close out the 2024 years end !!! Enjoy everything !!
A medicine bag is traditionally filled with things in nature (outside). Free stuff. A walk in nature will help us to tune in to the life force of all living things. Feel the elements as they touch you. Use all of your senses to experience the original life that our ancestors had. See every life. The trees, water, insects, animals (small and large), and all of the natural habitats that we aren't privy to when we don't venture into nature. Smell the air, water, and flowers or grasses. Taste the things that God put here to nourish our bodies. Berries, nuts, grains, and honey are the most natural of foods. Hear the wind blow and the rustle of the grass and leaves as small animals scurry around. Water flows in the stream, river, or lake. Feel the water, the air, and the earth beneath your bare feet. Make a small safe fire. Dig a small pit, place stones around it, place small twigs in the center, and light it up. Smell the smoke. Feel the warmth. See the potential of preparing a meal in the simple way of the ancestors. When finished take water from the nearby water source and drown every ember to prevent any chance that nature could be destroyed. Don't buy anything. Bring only yourself and the items needed to do what you need to do. Matches, something to put the water in and something to gather natural foods that you come across. Feel the experience in your soul while you are one with the Creator, our ancestors, and the life (plants, animals, water, air) that we share our planet with. This is how we embody the experience of our ancestors. We honor and respect the wisdom and stories passed down from them. We become one with the land, nature, and life! There is no greater high than this sacred acknowledgment! 💕🫂💕
I lived by 2 old sisters when I was very young, and they wore 'assafidity' bags to keep them healthy! It was full of herbs and a glob of the smelly stuff. Probably worked well due to the smelly stuff which tended to keep people away!
Hi Karen I have lots of Crystals and Stones that I absolutely love lots of selenite but I love the broom I actually want to find one for myself I love your haul. I also Wear Crystal elastic bracelets with beads I have many and each one is a different kind of healer and has different energy... Thats why they wrap them.. Also I love raw stones. A great one I carry in my pocket everywhere I go is raw black tourmaline. Great for keeping negative energy away. Also some can be fake.
That's wierd some of my comment got taken down I was telling you that some stones and crystals can be toxic because they have Mercury and lead from the earth so just be careful when handling them especially if they're cracked and it was supposed to say that's why the stores wrap them
Great tools! I’m a definite rock lover. I’ve carried a medicine bag for 35 years. Some of your beauties are fragile (selenite and obsidian etc.) I’ve learned the hard way to be careful when I make my pouch.
That is a Sephiroth and Qlippoth on that little heart stone! The tree of life and the tree of death! The upper part represents life and the lower part represents death, and the whole thing represents how the two are in balance and unity. I'm not entirely sure what the little gem in the center represents but my spirits are saying "life force" so we'll go with that ::3
I've had an obsidian stone since the 1980s. I "loaned" it to my grandmother when she was transitioning. She held onto that stone as if it was her worry stone. At one point she panicked when it got lost in her bedclothes. It actually got hot 🔥 to the touch. I think I read it was supposed to take away worry.
You’re making me want to go over here to the local rock and crystal shop. I bought some things on line so I’ll wait till they come, after I see the quality
I've got a fabulous crystals deck that tells you a whole bunch of info on each card about the crystal, such as what zodiac signs it relates to, what planet, etc. and it's called the Amcisi Healing Crystals for Beginners. It's a 60 card deck, and it's really awesome.✌️💕💫
Good afternoon, Karen, I want to let you know that it’s perfectly OK because peacocks constantly lose their feathers ! I used to work at a winery and we had peacocks. We would collect all their feathers and give them out free at the winery because. Peacocks constantly shed their feathers..
Your Selenite clearer is beautiful. Please keep in mind that little tiny threads of Selenite will come off into your skin, so you need to be super careful with it.
If you hold a rock in your non dominant hand ( left for me as I am right handed), and just wait and feel the energy. You can feel if it grounds you, or raises up, or if it is not for you. Try it.
Cats love playing with peacock feathers! Go Lucy! We buy them in packs, when one of our boys has ruined one we pull out a fresh feather! From what I hear peacock farms collect them off the ground and sell them so they are aquired humanely.
EMF= electromagnetic field. I watch a lot of ghost hunters who use emf detection devices. I know people who raise peacocks for their feathers--they do lose them naturally. Love your coffee mug and esp. t he stones. I've collected stones all my life (rock hound). finding them in nature mostly, but I buy some too. Need to get some crystals. I really want the violet ones. I don't know why. 🥰
Violet is a spiritual color, relating to the crown chakra. It is used for combatting fear and addictions. My favorite violet-colored stones are Amethyst, Lepidolite, and (of course!) Lavender Quartz.
I buy most of my mugs at thrift stores. I picked up 13 today for $6.00. 🤯 Some were .25 and some were .69. I did pay $1.99 for one that was pretty special. 🤩❤️🤗❤️🤗
Other commenters have said that peacocks naturally shed their feathers and there is a spiritual meaning behind peacock feathers. They are believed to symbolize good luck, positive energy, rebirth, wealth, and divine femininity, wisdom and enlightenment (among others).
Before I forget, in Dr. Jenifer Lisa Vest's video from this same day and starts with the story of "7 Brides for 7 Brothers" has a comment where someone has made a list of Dreaming Women and you are included in this list. Cool!
I think it depends on where you live. I need to go down to our recycling center and chat with them. I am also starting to hear overall that they aren’t recycling as much as we think they are. 🤔🤦🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️🤗❤️
I liked the video! You made me laugh at the peacock feather! I agree that it somehow doesn’t go with your “broom”. Maybe kitty needs a new toy? Oh, and I think that you can say “herbs” either way. I think the Brits are the ones that pronounce the H. Hugs❤

I set my stones outside on a full moon to cleanse and charge.
Great idea. Love it!

Tree of life? Your new heart!
@@barbdaugherty-p8u Most stones can also be cleansed and charged on a bed of hematite. I too have way too many - well never toooo many😆
You can cleanse crystals on selenite & selenite doesn't ever need cleansing.
I ❤ Selenite. Keep dry. Crown chakra.
Selenite is said to promote connection with higher realms and angelic beings. ❤
Thanks i didn't know.
Star blanket represents the star people , I’m Native American - we came from the star people
Black obsidian is actually translucent. Hold it up to the light.
So smart to take a picture of the stone with the card. Wish I had thought of doing that when I bought my various stones. As I learn the names I could make a small identifying card and take their picture together. Thanks for that tip
I could possibly help you with identifying them if you need some help

Hello Karen!!
tree of life - I believe the blue dot in the middle represents the Earth
Thank you. That makes sense. The earth. I love that.
That’s what I picked up too.

I smudge my crystals with sage. I have enough to open a store. I have a friend that sells them online.
Love that selenite broom!❤️
At least paper and cardboard is biodegradable. Love the broom. Peacocks drop feathers all the time so probably no birds were hurt in the process. 😊
Instead of wrapping paper, I use furoshiki. It’s cloth that can be used again for another gift or worn as a scarf or bandanna. It’s like giving a double gift. You can actually use a nice scarf or bandanna as furoshiki.
Great idea. Thanks for sharing! 🤗❤️🤗❤️
Thanks for the bit of advice. Our lovely Japanese exchange student introduced us to this practice, and I've been thinking about taking it up again.
6:51 whoa!!! A ladybug on a leaf is actually a divinatory synchronicity for me!!! Love that you found that!
Oh cool. Love it.
The Heart is my favorite! We really are soul sisters!
This was fun! I love your haul and so does Lucy!! 😊

I don’t drink alcohol at all so cocktails with Karen makes no sense. Lol. We’ll stick with coffee. 🤗❤️🤗❤️

I've had an obsidian stone since the 1980s. I "loaned" it to my grandmother when she was transitioning.
She held onto that stone as if it was her worry stone.
At one point she panicked when it got lost in her bedclothes. It actually got hot 🔥 to the touch.
I think I read it was supposed to take away worry.
You’re making me want to go over here to the local rock and crystal shop. I bought some things on line so I’ll wait till they come, after I see the quality
Love your cards
I am a crystal fanatic so I’ll always chime in on videos on that topic!
Awesome. I know very little so any help for the community is so welcomed!
Thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you
I've got a fabulous crystals deck that tells you a whole bunch of info on each card about the crystal, such as what zodiac signs it relates to, what planet, etc. and it's called the Amcisi Healing Crystals for Beginners. It's a 60 card deck, and it's really awesome.✌️💕💫
Sweet. I’m on it. Thanks for the recommendation. ❤️🤗❤️🤗
@askthespiritguides Anytime 😊 🫶🏽
Obsidian is also known as the smoking mirror! In my Native community!
I take a picture of the crystal with the card too. I have a separate album of my crystals. I would be completely lost on what is what otherwise lol.
I stopped using wrapping paper years ago. I save paper and bags! (New name, same Debbie K.) I love all of your cool items!
Peacock feathers fall out naturally and you pick them offthe ground
🎉
Love ❤️ all your new goodie’s
I loved watching your unboxing😊
Yay! I’m so happy to share my excitement. 🤗❤️🤗❤️
You let your intuition guide you
Do not put water on Selenite and don't handle the broom handle with damp hands (can irritate skin) Beautiful broom!
Thank you for the tips. Very helpful. 🤗❤️🤗❤️
Great mug!
Good afternoon, Karen,
I want to let you know that it’s perfectly OK because peacocks constantly lose their feathers ! I used to work at a winery and we had peacocks. We would collect all their feathers and give them out free at the winery because. Peacocks constantly shed their feathers..
Your Selenite clearer is beautiful. Please keep in mind that little tiny threads of Selenite will come off into your skin, so you need to be super careful with it.
I just learned that the black one removes dark energy last night!
Obsidian is volcanic glass. Some have gold dust in them if you put alight behind it. They are very powerful.
Cute mug!Hi lucy baby, kitty! feathers oh are angelic, white especially.maybe a kokopelli.
If you hold a rock in your non dominant hand ( left for me as I am right handed), and just wait and feel the energy. You can feel if it grounds you, or raises up, or if it is not for you. Try it.
Beautiful Karen 😅😂😅😂😅
PEACOCKS LOSE THEIR FEATHERS ALL THE TIME NATURALY. POOR KITTY. LOL
Cats love playing with peacock feathers! Go Lucy! We buy them in packs, when one of our boys has ruined one we pull out a fresh feather! From what I hear peacock farms collect them off the ground and sell them so they are aquired humanely.
EMF= electromagnetic field. I watch a lot of ghost hunters who use emf detection devices. I know people who raise peacocks for their feathers--they do lose them naturally. Love your coffee mug and esp. t he stones. I've collected stones all my life (rock hound). finding them in nature mostly, but I buy some too. Need to get some crystals. I really want the violet ones. I don't know why. 🥰
Violet is a spiritual color, relating to the crown chakra. It is used for combatting fear and addictions. My favorite violet-colored stones are Amethyst, Lepidolite, and (of course!) Lavender Quartz.
You got one! 25¢?!!! I have a couple mugs 1:27 I paid full price for. It's a great soup mug, too.
I buy most of my mugs at thrift stores. I picked up 13 today for $6.00. 🤯 Some were .25 and some were .69. I did pay $1.99 for one that was pretty special. 🤩❤️🤗❤️🤗
Other commenters have said that peacocks naturally shed their feathers and there is a spiritual meaning behind peacock feathers. They are believed to symbolize good luck, positive energy, rebirth, wealth, and divine femininity, wisdom and enlightenment (among others).
Kind of like smudging with white sage
Love the broom with selenite!
Before I forget, in Dr. Jenifer Lisa Vest's video from this same day and starts with the story of "7 Brides for 7 Brothers" has a comment where someone has made a list of Dreaming Women and you are included in this list. Cool!
I have one black protection that I wear around my neck they are pretty and interesting to hear about then
The Brits pronounce the h in herbs whereas most Americans don't. I think Martha pronounces the h because it sounds more posh because it's British.
😏
My husband is British and he definitely pronounces the "h." :)
Cardboard and paper can be recycled or composted
I think it depends on where you live. I need to go down to our recycling center and chat with them. I am also starting to hear overall that they aren’t recycling as much as we think they are. 🤔🤦🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️🤗❤️
I liked the video! You made me laugh at the peacock feather! I agree that it somehow doesn’t go with your “broom”. Maybe kitty needs a new toy? Oh, and I think that you can say “herbs” either way. I think the Brits are the ones that pronounce the H. Hugs❤
set your water outside to get the healing energy and rinse your stones with it
Ooooo. Great idea!
I never give peacock feathers as they are sad to bring grief and sadness.
Karen, you are hilarious. . . Still and again.
Ohh! I need a medicine bag!😊
