creating sacred space
The concept of sacred space is the honouring of an area, a table, an altar for the dedicated use of a sacred ritual; be it spiritual, religious, work or play.
Before I begin work I always open up a sacred space; often using incense, chimes, music and lit candles. I choose to dedicate my creativity to the highest good of all as I find this gives purity and power to my pieces. This energy defines the very quality of my work and thereby imprints upon the stones so that their new owner will take away a piece of jewellery that is pristine in its energy field.
At my market stall I always set up a sacred space for the day too - call it my crystal cave. Doing so creates a lovely environment for me to be in for the day, and is a warm, welcoming, nurturing space for customers and friends to visit. In fact it's not unusual to experience spontaneous bursts of emotion in my stall!
A Few Words About Intentions
Although some crystal workers like to set an intention for their crystals, I personally don't do this. Rather I prepare them fully charged and ready to respond to the client's need. In this way I feel the codes of the crystals remain pure and unsullied.

Reclaiming Our Innate Healing Power
Although I love creating beautiful jewellery, there is a higher purpose to Hummingbird Jewellery for me. We live in such a time of turbulent change, where the order and structure of the world is starting to break down. Many people are searching for a deeper meaning to their lives; other than the treadmill run that we have been sold for so long.
Within this search is a desire to reconnect with our instinctive selves; to once again hear our own intuitive wisdom, our inner knowing. This wisdom was once handed down through generations, but over time, much has been lost in translation. Crystals are one path to help us reconnect to the source. The energy emanating from them cuts through the layers of mental and emotional drama that we embroil ourselves in. They remind us of our innate abilities to heal ourselves. Herein lies the purpose of my work...to pass on wisdom as I acquire it; translated into a practical medium in the form of a piece of beautiful crystal jewellery. |
