Don't forget Mercury goes retrograde this month from April 28th through May 22nd. See last month's article on ways to protect yourself against astrological bad weather!
If you h
aven't registered yet for the 2016 Hoodoo Heritage Festival, time is running out, so be sure to do so soon!
I'll be presenting a workshop there called "The Four Branches of Crystal
Magic: Scrying, Projection, Reception, and Transformation." It will be on the spiritual use of gemstones.
During the workshop I'll be introducing my new book on working with crystals and crystal balls, called "Crystal Magic: Divination, Healing, and Spellcraft with Gems and Minerals." Hope to see you there!
Clear Viewing,

Palmistry 101
Jon Saint Germain
Last month we took a look at the
Fire Hand. This month we continue our discussion of Palmistry by looking at the
Air Hand.
The Air Hand
Recognizable by its square palm and long fing
ers, the Air Hand denotes a person with a quick, agile mind. The negative side of the Air type is their tendenc
y to deceive and manipulate. Air types are great self-motivators and work according to their own inner agenda. They ca
n be a bit flamboyant in their behaviour, sometimes acting in a contrived manner to elicit a desired response from others. Consequently, the
y don't always mean what they say.
Natural entertainers, they tend to enjoy attention and recognition. They thrive on mental challenges and work well under a deadline. Sometimes they seem to be addicted to stress and melodrama. Naturally adventurous and curious, an Air type will try anything at least once.
Versatile and multi-sided, it is as though they have several different people living in their head. Many actors and actresses sport an Air Hand. Airs are great at debate and often will argue either side of an issue just for the fun of it. They enjoy psychology and playing mind games, with themselves as well as others. People with his hand are very good at generating concepts, theories and ideas (sowing the seeds), although they seldom find the time to act on all of them.
Air types should find their soul mates among other Airs or among Fire types, as long as they take care to not let the Fire type burn them out. Air types sometimes feel restricted and limited in a relationship with the more conventional Earth types.
Those with Air type hands are creative, so a good "medicine" bag for them could consist of Picasso Jasper, Orange Aventurine, Pink Kyanite, Citrine, and Golden Labradorite.

When Life Doesn't Cooperate
 Have you ever heard the old saying "Man plans. God laughs." Sometimes it seems that God must be rolling on the floor. Our most carefully laid plans shatter to pieces and we're left wondering what in the word happened.
Life refused to cooperate.
When events seem to work against us, let's take a look at some strategies that can help us take control again.
Were Our Goals Realistic?
We have to ask ourselves if our plans were realistic. Did we overestimate our resources? Was our time-table within our reach? Did we set a goal that was compatible with our current abilities, skills and talents? Did outside factors scuttle our plans, or did we self-sabotage? By honestly examining these questions we can learn how things fell apart and adjust our plans for next time.
Are Our Goals Currently Achievable?
Sometimes timing is everything. Also, having a structured plan is essential. Many people just dive into a project without any real plan, and fly by the seat of their pants. Sometimes we get lucky and things run smoothly for a while, but eventually luck will run out and we wind up wondering how everything crashed around us. It's important to have a plan, and keep an eye out for opportunities to implement that plan. These opportunities can appear through people you meet, news items, newspaper or internet ad -- anywhere. You have to actively watch for them with a prepared and activated mind.
Lack of Resources?
If we have a solid plan and an opportunity presents itself, and we lack resources, financial or otherwise, to pursue it, this shouldn't necessarily stop us. If there's something I need for my business that I can't afford, I never say "I can't afford that." Instead I ask, "How can I raise the money to afford it?" When we say we can't afford something, we give up. Everything stops. When we try to figure out how to make something happen, we engage our mind, and heaven and earth will get behind us as powerful allies to help us achieve our goals.
Can Crystals Help?
Crystals can help with any condition. Some crystals to help when life deals you an unexpected setback include:
To help refocus:
- Citrine
- Sodalite
- Muscovite
For clear thinking:
To reduce anxiety and increase confidence:
For luck in business:
- Pyrite
- Citrine
- Yellow Scapulite.
To turn away misfortune:
- Black Tourmaline
- Ocean Jasper
- Tiger's Eye
To attract new opportunities:
- Kunzite,
- Orange Kyanite,
- Picture Jasper
Make Life Your Ally
When life refuses to cooperate, rather than adopting an adversarial relationship with circumstances, if we see these temporary setbacks as opportunities to learn and build our tools for expansion, we see that life can be our best friend and teacher.
