Daily Cosmic Calendar for May 25th

Today’s ‘National Tap Dance Day’ gives me the opportunity to share a show stopping way to enhance your own creativity simply by stomping your feet. According to ancient Indian scripture, there are auric centers on the soles of your feet that are very strongly connected with the earth’s energies. If you ever suffer any sort of creative blockage, then this philosophy says that you might also be experiencing a blockage in the ‘energetic bundle’ at the bottom of your feet. You might then feel ungrounded while also feeling unproductive, unmotivated or just plain stuck. To exit this low energy state, simply stand up and stomp the bottom of each bare foot on the ground nine separate times. Take a deep breath between each stamp. Once you are done with one foot, go on to the next. Stomp out the stuck and get your creativity flowing again. Once you are done tap dancing around this exercise, you will also stop tap dancing around your artistic block while also feeling refreshed and ready to take on the world!

Cleansing Crystals with Running Water

If you’re fortunate enough to live near a stream, tie your stone in a pieces of cheesecloth or old pantyhose and with a piece of string fasten it to a branch or stone on the bank. Let the fabric wrapped stone rest in the water for at least twenty-four house. If you’re in an urban environment, you can set the stone in a strainer or colander and put it in your sink. Turn the cold water tap on and leave it three for a while. However, this method wastes a lot of water, so I don’t use it. Instead, I pour bottled spring water in a dish, and set the stones in it. Water absorbs energy whether it’s running or not, the movement simply add more energy to the process and gets it done faster.

Water is an excellent purifier. If you add a pinch of salt to it, it becomes even more powerful. Again, however, if there’s any metal attached to the stone, skip the salt and use pure water. Don’t subscribe earth for that pinch of salt in the technique, or you’ll end up having to rinse off the stone under the tap anyway.
