» RoxianneM - Re: I enjoyed your review, Roxianne In response to I enjoyed your review, Roxianne posted by jerrib:I'm glad you liked the review. I certainly enjoyed Darlene's class, and I think it can be of great value to anyone who wants to explore the use of crystals for healing work. -- posted by RoxianneM » plox - earth energy I like crystals as objects of beauty but don't do anything with them.What caught my eye was the concept of "tapping into the earth's energy". Because I was that day observing the behavior of my cat who didn't feel up to par. Rather than lying on a pillowed porch chair as usual, she chose to lie on the colder, damper, ground all day. And it reminded me of the many times I chose to (more briefly) do the same thing and how helpful it was to me. -- posted by plox » biogardener - Posting this article How about posting a link to this article in this discussion thread, Roxianne?-- posted by biogardener » RoxianneM - Re: earth energy In response to earth energy posted by plox:We can tap into Earth energy in so many ways. Cats do it instictively -- I've watched my own lie on the ground or in a beam of sunlight rather than their usual perches. We can learn so much about gathering in energy and connecting with the Earth just by watching the animals. Children are good at that too, especially when they're very young. Crystals simply offer us a handy, portable way to connect with the Earth, and to tap into frequencies of energy that might not otherwise be available to us. -- posted by RoxianneM » biogardener - The Healing Power of the Earth I have written an article under the title, The Healing Power of the Earth. It may not be my most popular article, but certainly one which I have written with the deepest conviction. It talks about what you mention, the instinctive knowledge of healing which comes from the earth. I have found the most powerful healing to come from the part of the earth which is most widely available here in the prairies, a part of the earth which most people here do not appreciate at all, because it makes gardening difficult, and that is clay.Clay is my #1 natural remedy, even though I did not learn about it until I was 21 years old, because I was born and raised on sandy soil. It came down to me from a Manitoba aboriginal shaman who was converted to Christianity and who divulged his most powerful secret remedy to a missionary. -- posted by biogardener » RoxianneM - Re: The Healing Power of the Earth In response to The Healing Power of the Earth posted by biogardener:Clay? Boy, do I have a lot of that here. We recently lost a lovely weeping cherry, which just died for no apparent reason. When we went to remove it, we found that the previous owners had simply dug a hole in the heavy clay -- just big enough for the root ball -- and plopped the tree in. With all the rain we've had the past two years, the tree literally drowned. I've never used clay in healing work, although I can remember having clay-mud slapped on my arm when I was stung by several hornets. We also used mud for other bites, poison ivy, etc. I'd forgotten all about that, so thanks for reminding me. -- posted by RoxianneM » biogardener - Tree in clay Your tree story reminds me of what one of my neighbors did. He bought an apple tree in a pot of compressed clay and set it in the a hole just big enough to take the pot. Then he couldn't understand why the tree wasn't thriving. I managed to save the tree just in time. Had him dig a hole with measuring a metre in all directions and plant it with loose soil from my compost bin. I also planted a few chives around the trunk to keep aphids away, and that tree is still thriving and bearing apples 20 years later, having survived the man.-- posted by biogardener
