Bee Wise Body Jewels: Consciously Crafting

We believe that all of creation is Divinely synchronized and meant to work in harmony. This belief guides a lot of how we approach our earthly existence when it comes to things like food, medicine, and the general wellbeing of our bodies and minds. We believe that creation is perfect and not lacking in anything, meaning everything we need can be found within the elements of that Divine creation, including things like cures to cancer and disease epidemics. Food, water, herbs, oxygen, all of these things and more have IMMENSE power that most of us do not give credit to. Even more important might be the lack of credit given to our emotional/spiritual posture and how that plays out in our physical bodies. I'm blessed to have a mother that also values these connections and is living proof that things like cancer can be beaten with food, nutrition, and spiritual health. (GO MOM!!!) We wonder what the world would look like if we gave priority to reconnecting with the gifts of nature. I think it would be a much healthier, happier planet, and our goal is to do all we can to make that shift, and to hopefully influence others to do the same.

On our trip to visit my Grandpa in New Mexico this past summer, I was reminded of his life's work as a studied geologist, and how I've always felt a special calling towards the earth's minerals and gems, through a love of crystals and rocks. I knew that crystals were said to have healing powers but not until recently had I allowed myself to contemplate what a gift of creation they might truly be. It always seemed a little too "out there" for my mind to grasp but as I started looking into it, I found it to be very simple and easy to understand. The internal crystalline structure of stones and the atomic vibration specific to those structures is what gives them their quality of energy. Certain stones vibrate in a way that resonants with our subtle energy vibrations, which would be things like our emotions and attitudes, and can be used to align and bring healing to an unbalanced body/mind/spirit. Since I'm still learning all about it myself, I'll leave it up to those who are very knowledgable and have dedicated a great amount to the subject to really explain the details (a link I highly recommend checking out!), I simply wanted to give you a little background for the motivation behind our fun new project!

On the last new moon I was inspired to make a crystal grid. More powerful than a single crystal alone, crystal grids are made by placing stones in a geometric pattern for directing energy towards a certain purpose or intention. In this case, ours was dedicated to releasing the past and opening ourselves to the future and all the abundance and love the earth has to offer. We burned candles I had saved from a special trip to Africa when I was 13 as an additional symbol of our intention, and overall just had a very wonderful time praying and bringing in that healing earth medicine. We left the grid out overnight and immediately the next day I felt inspired to make some jewelry pieces out of the crystals we used, something I had dabbled in but never really pursued, and to also share what I was creating with others. Right away the universe responded and we started getting requests, and more than requests for a product, we truly started receiving genuine requests for healing, prayer, and love to be sent in the form of crystal creations, such great keepers of the subtle energies that affect our spirits.

We've spent the past two weeks creating these conscious crafts, talking with and hearing from so many of you amazing people out there, and just really connecting on a deep soul level through this platform of Home In The Hive. It has been so wonderful to feel all the love and support as we pursue our dreams of self-sustainability as a family. Ideally we'd like our own website, and we definitely see that happening in the future, but for now we will be using our Etsy shop to bring you all our handmade goods. We will continue to make grids based on what requests we're getting/what we intuitively feel a need for, and presenting our crafts thereafter. The next intention has been chosen and we are currently putting our energy into gathering stones for a grid dedicated to fertility, balancing male/female energy, the pregnancy process, and reproductive health. Really looking forward to this one and excited for the people who have already reached out about it!

It's always been our dream for Home In The Hive to be an organically creative space and we are still seeing how this adventure will unfold, but whatever it looks like, we are EXCITED! Thank you deeply from our heart centers to yours, for being supportive and partaking in our journey! It's truly a gift to share. We are full to the brim with gratitude for All!
