Dry Skin? Me too!
Especially after working
with stone all day. I was on a mission to find a product that would
finally help my dry skin. Dry skin is a common issue here in the
Southwest because of our dry weather.
I found the secret! Lavender (the
real, natural kind) was the answer!
I love Lavender-Love
lotions and soaps so much I want to share it with everyone!
Soothes dry skin in an instant.

TURQUOISE
– the Master Healer
The
Spiritual History of Turquoise
The world over, Turquoise is known as a Master Healer. Native Americans
and Shaman's around the globe use Turquoise to give aid and guidance
during a Vision Quest. To receive a Vision Quest is to understand your
purpose in life.
According to the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), turquoise is one
of the world's most ancient gemstones. Archaeological excavations have
revealed that Egyptian royalty wore turquoise jewelry as early as 5500
B.C. Chinese artisans were carving it more than 3,000 years ago. Native
American tribes have worn turquoise as a ceremonial gem and bartered and
adorned their jewelry with it for thousands of years. Turquoise was just
as valuable then, and the Native Americans used Turquoise to pay for
goods. The Navajo and Hopi in Arizona value Turquoise as an attractor of
prosperity and fertility of the soil.
The world over, wherever Turquoise is found, the local people all have the
tradition that this sky blue stone is THE Master Healer. There are still
some things that scientists cannot understand. What we DO know is that it
works. The healing quality of healing stone vibrations is very real.
Turquoise is par excellence for spiritual attunement, healing emotions,
and balancing the auric bodies. It is great for relieving and dissipating
sadness or grief. There is an uplifting quality as well as a calming
quality to Turquoise. Can you imagine wearing it in your energy field? It
is an experience you just have to try.
Because Turquoise is so effective on the etheric planes and because
healing first takes place at the etheric levels, Turquoise is used to
strengthen the entire anatomy. From headaches to repairing physical damage
to the body, Turquoise works beginning in the energy field, where illness
starts.
Turquoise is often used for skin disorders due to stress. And in ancient
times it was used for eye problems, especially cataracts. Due to the
copper content, it is powerful for arthritis and rheumatism. In addition
to being the Master Healer, Turquoise is treasured as a powerful success
and good luck stone.
It is useful to note that blue Turquoise (there is also green) works with
the throat Chakra and lungs. Turquoise contains a high amount of
phosphorus which is used in Homeopathy for lung problems. Even the
ancients advised Turquoise for lung and breathing difficulties.
My love of Turquoise and desire to share it with others led me to begin a
business selling Turquoise several years ago, starting with the gorgeous
Sleeping Beauty variety. Our first store only carried only Sleeping Beauty
Turquoise in only one size, 8mm nuggets. It was great! After receiving
many requests for other sizes and shapes we expanded our store over time
into what you see today at The Turquoise Chick. The price of turquoise has almost doubled in the past few years so our
prices and our inventory look much different today than they did back
then. (Which is a great reason to
invest in American Turquoise! It is running out and getting more and more
valuable over time.)
Turquoise colors range from light to medium blue or greenish-blue. Spider
web turquoise, a popular variation, displays veins of matrix (its host
rock) in web-like patterns. Persian (Iranian) turquoise is considered the
finest quality and also the most expensive. It exhibits an intense light
to medium blue, typically with no matrix. It has the ability to take on a
glossy polish. Other turquoise varieties including American, Mexican,
Egyptian, and Chinese are a significant source today. My Sleeping Beauty
Turquoise comes from the Sleeping Beauty Mine located in Gila County,
Arizona.
One of my greatest joys is working with and introducing people to the
Master Healer. There simply is nothing like it! I guarantee it!
