Moqui Balls, also known as Shaman Stones or Moqui Marbles, are formed from sandstone and iron oxide and found primarily in the deserts of the American Southwest. Their name reflects the heritage of Hopi Native American tribe and the word means "departed ones" in their language. According to legend, the ancestors would play with these stones in the spirit world at night and leave them behind as a sign of their presence to their loved ones.
Moqui Balls typically come in pairs:
Together, they represent the divine balance of masculine and feminine energies, making them perfect tools for bringing in balance and harmony.

Every year on November 11th (11/11), a powerful energetic gateway opens - a cosmic alignment that invites us to step into higher consciousness, deep healing, and rapid manifestation. The energy of this sacred day amplifies our connection to the divine, serving as a reminder that we are infinite beings capable of creating our reality through thought, vibration, and intention!
In numerology, the number 11 is an angel number - the vibration of spiritual awakening, divine intuition, and soul alignment. It is the mirror of balance between the physical and the spiritual, the seen and unseen. When this number doubles, as it does on 11/11, its power magnifies - opening a portal of ascension energy that allows us to connect with our higher selves, align with our soul purpose, and manifest our highest timelines.
11:11 often appears as a sign from the universe - a divine nudge that you are on the right path, aligned with your purpose, and being supported by unseen forces. Today, that energy is amplified, offering us a chance to consciously co-create with the Universe.
Here are some simple yet profound ways to connect with today’s gateway energy and use it for your highest good:
1. Set Intentions from the Heart
Take a few moments to sit in stillness and ask yourself: What do I truly desire to create or experience next? Write your intentions down in present tense - as if they are already your reality. Speak them aloud. Feel the emotion of already living that dream. Emotion is the magnetic force that activates manifestation.
2. Meditate and Visualize Your Highest Self
During meditation, imagine a radiant golden, white light pouring through your Crown Chakra, flowing through your entire being. See yourself surrounded by pure love and divine support. This light carries the frequency of your highest potential - allow it to guide and expand you.
3. Ground and Balance Your Energy
As the energies today are very high-vibrational, it’s important to stay grounded. Spend time in nature, connect with Source, or hold grounding crystals like Black Tourmaline or Hematite. Balance between spirit and earth brings harmony and stability.
4. Acts of Compassion and Collective Healing
The 11/11 portal isn’t just about personal ascension - it’s about raising the vibration of the collective. Share kindness, forgiveness, and compassion. Every loving act you offer ripples outward, sending love and light into the Universe.
5. Trust and Allow
Once you’ve set your intentions and aligned your energy, release control. Trust that the Universe is already working in your favor. Miracles unfold when we surrender with faith and openness.
Today’s portal is an opportunity to embody your light, remember your divine essence, and activate new frequencies of awareness. It’s a moment to step into higher alignment - where your thoughts, words, and actions harmonize with the love of your higher self.
Let 11/11 remind you that you are a divine light, fully supported by universal energy. Use this day to dream boldly, love deeply, and shine unapologetically. Together, through conscious awareness and compassion, we can raise the vibration of the collective and bring in the light. May your intentions manifest with ease and grace and in perfect harmony with your highest good!
Mica's natural beauty and shimmer vibrates at a high frequency, allowing for deep spiritual insight. Its natural ability to reflect light mirrors its properties: helping us see ourselves more clearly and illuminating the truths that lie within. It is a powerful tool for helping you look at a situation in complete detail to provide you with purpose to move forward and appreciate the lessons from your past. Mica acts as an energetic shield to help deflect low lying energies. Its reflective quality bounces back unwanted energy, allowing you to maintain a clear, grounded field.
Mica is a group of silicate minerals that can be clear, silver, or golden depending on the variety and found throughout the world. It is often found with other crystals which enhance and support their metaphysical properties. Here are some of our favorite Mica combinations!
This peaceful pairing brings together the tranquil energy of Aquamarine along with the clarity of Mica for creating a supportive combination for working with your Heart Chakra.
This pairing can support your body, mind, and spirit with its calming vibrations. This crystal combination is perfect for those in search of restful sleep and nervous emotions. Together they dissolve energy blocks, including your chakras.
The reflective qualities of this unique combination enhance your spiritual insight by opening and expanding your Crown Chakra.

Even crystals created through scientific innovation can have powerful properties. Terahertz is composed of silica, formed by extracting quartz or silica from grains of sand. It emits terahertz waves that prevent mental fatigue, increase mental clarity, and stimulate physical vigor. Its unique frequency is associated with balance, alignment, and transformation.
Terahertz's high thermal conductivity, which can even melt ice, stimulates energy flow in the body, gives you a boost, and increases your overall energy levels. It is ideal for those seeking focus, drive, and forward movement in their lives. Carry a Terahertz palm stone with you at work, school, or whenever you need renewed motivation.
Terahertz stimulates the Root Chakra and shields against low lying energies and electromagnetic frequencies (EMFs). If you're experiencing feelings of restlessness, anxiety, or insecurity, it's possible your Root Chakra is blocked or out of alignment. Terahertz can improve maintenance of the Root Chakra, keeping you grounded and feeling secure. As modern technology continues to expand so does our exposure to electromagnetic radiation, which some believe can disrupt the body's energy field. EMFs are emitted by electronic devices such as cell phones, WiFi routers, and computers. Terahertz acts as a natural filter, shielding EMFs before they reach the human body.
Allow Terahertz natural frequencies inspire vitality, focus, and a deeper sense of alignment in your life!
Frequencies, measured in Hertz (Hz), can have a profound effect on the body, mind, and spirit. When paired with sound vibrational tools such as singing bowls, tuning forks, or binaural beats, these frequencies can become gateways to deep emotional release and spiritual awakening.
Hz is a unit of frequency that measures how many cycles a sound wave completes in a second. When applied to sound healing, specific frequencies are believed to vibrate in harmony with the human body, chakras, and even our emotional state. Our favorites ways to tune into them are through the use of singing bowls, sound baths, listening to guided meditations or music on apps such as Insight Timer.
Here is a list of healing frequencies with a breakdown of how they can support different aspects of your spiritual and emotional well-being. Visit one of our favorite meditation apps, Insight Timer, to tune into the vibration. Pair a recording with one of our suggested activity or tools to amplify the frequency.
7.83Hz - Earth's Heartbeat This is often believed to be the Earth's natural heartbeat (or Schumann Resonance) and our energetic baseline. This frequency creates harmony in the nervous system and balances our energetic field. Outside in nature, preferably lying on the ground, is the perfect way to absorb this frequency.
111Hz – Divine Healing Known as a “sacred frequency,” this frequency is associated with deep cellular repair and harmony between the brain’s hemispheres. This vibration has been used by sacred sites and chanted by monks, and carries a naturally calming and restorative quality. Listening to this frequency during meditation, prayer, Reiki, or intention setting can invite profound peace and spiritual alignment.
174Hz - Foundation Helps to ground and create a sense of safety and support. Can be used when recovering from physical or emotional trauma. Tune into this frequency when in water, such as a bath.
285Hz - Cellular Healing Restores body to its original blueprint and promotes regeneration. Can be used in conjunction with aromatherapy, such as essential oils Eucalyptus and Lemon, for restorative support.
396Hz - Liberation Releases feelings of fear, guilt, and shame and balances the Root Chakra, anchoring into your personal power. Use with crystals such as Smoky Quartz or Obsidian.
417Hz - Facilitating Change Clears out low lying energies and encourages transformation and new beginnings. Combine this frequency with journaling or holding Selenite harmonizers.
432Hz - Relaxation & Clarity This popular frequency encourages deep relaxation and encourages a meditative state. Use this frequency in a meditation practice, especially when struggling with mental chatter or when working on creative projects, writing, or drawing.
528Hz - Love Frequency This is a potent heart opener, encouraging self-love and compassion. Amplify a heart-centered meditation session with this frequency and the use of Rose Quartz crystals.

741Hz - Self-Expression This frequency activates your Throat Chakra. Use this frequency in conjunction with chants such as, "Om".
852Hz - Awakening Intuition Stimulate your Third Eye Chakra to encourage deep inner knowing. Place a crystal, such as Amethyst, between the brows during a meditation with this Hz.
963Hz - Divine Connection Open the Crown Chakra to Divine energy, activating a spiritual awakening. Diffusing sacred essential oils, such as Frankincense, will enhance the experience. You might also pull an oracle card, allowing the message to come through with greater clarity and connection.
Whether you're using sound to soothe emotions, awaken your intuition, or reconnect with the Divine, Hz frequencies are an important tool in your journey toward spiritual alignment and your overall well-being!
A natural tool for finding harmony and balance in every day life is the use of crystal harmonizers. They are cylindrical crystals, often used in pairs, held in each hand to balance the body's energy field. They can also be made from contrasting material such as Shungite and Soapstone to represent and stimulate dual aspects of energy (e.g.-masculine and feminine).
Balancing Energy They can be used to align our chakras. By holding one harmonizer in each hand, the energetic flow between your left (receiving) and right (giving) sides is activated, helping to restore internal balance. Traditionally, the left hand connects to our feminine energy and the right hand connects to our masculine energy.
Meditation Support Using harmonizers during meditation can deepen your practice and focus. Choosing a crystal harmonizer such as Amethyst or Clear Quartz can clear your mind and elevate your spiritual awareness.
Emotional Release Harmonizers can assist in releasing emotional blockages and cords. When the frequency of the crystal interacts with our energy fields, we begin to feel experience feelings of calm and peace. Selenite harmonizers are the perfect tool for clearing energy and bringing in light.
Connection with Higher Self Crystals can raise your vibration and amplify your intentions. Working with them regularly can strengthen your connection to your higher self, increase your intuitive abilities, and support your journey of self-discovery. They can also be utilized as support when trying to connect with your ancestral lineage-left hand/side, your maternal ancestors and the right hand/side, your paternal ancestors.
Morning Routine Begin your day grounded and intentional. Spend a few moments in quiet, holding one harmonizer in each hand, close your eyes, and breathe deeply for 5-10 minutes. Set your intentions for the day.
Meditation Harmonizers can be used to enhance your existing meditation practice. Focus on your breath while holding the crystals to deepen your sense of calm and clarity.
Chakra Alignment While lying down, place the harmonizers on the chakra points you are working on. Visualize energy flowing between the harmonizers and through your body, clearing blockages, and restoring alignment.
Bedtime Routine Include crystal harmonizers in your bedtime routine. They can release the energy of the day, quiet the mind, and help you transition to a restful, restorative state.
Energy Healing Sessions Practitioners can use harmonizers with their clients for additional support of chakra balancing and directing energy flow. Harmonizers can also be used during sound baths-holding one in each hand can ground your energy and realign you with your natural rhythms.
Crystal harmonizers remind us to pause, breathe, and return to our natural state of balance within our body, mind, and spirit. Trust your intention, explore with an open heart, and allow the harmonizers to support you on your spiritual journey!
Uranus, the seventh planet from the Sun, governs innovation, awakening, and unconventional, forward-thinking thoughts and ideas. Uranus is named after the Greek sky god (Ouranos), the primordial god who personified the heavens. Understanding Uranus is an invitation to break free from outdated patterns and align with divine truth and higher consciousness. Uranus rules the zodiac sign Aquarius, ruling over visionaries, intellectuals, and humanitarians. It infuses it with a rebellious energy, making it a sign that defies norms and embraces change.
Uranus' symbol is a combination of the Sun and the spear of Mars, representing the light of the Sun and the power of Mars. Colors associated with this transformative planet are electric blue or violet which mirror its frequency of innovation, cosmic truth, and universal connection. Uranus is closely associated with the Air element, which embodies qualities of intellect and forward movement.
Awakening & Liberation
Uranus breaks through illusions, limiting beliefs, and social conditioning and moves you toward alignment with your soul's authentic path. It can push you out of your comfort zone and seemingly into chaos, but this forward movement is necessary for personal transformation.
Innovation & Intuition
It governs science, technology, and our innate intuition. It sharpens your connection to your Higher Self, making it powerful energy to connect with during meditation, energy healing sessions, or astral travel. It encourages technology as a spiritual tool, such as sound healing and biofeedback.
Divine Disruption
Uranus serves the purpose of higher order. It disrupts stagnation, forcing necessary changes that lead to spiritual and societal revolutions. When Uranus is active in your life, trust that it's leading you for your highest good.
Our favorite crystals to connect with its energy are Labradorite, Herkimer Diamonds, Amethyst, Blue Kyanite, and tektites such as Libyan Desert Glass or Agni Manitite.
Uranus removes illusion to reveal the truth. It calls on you to think freely, feel deeply, and live with authenticity. When you embrace its energy, you step into your power of a new reality-not just for yourself but for the collective!
Fire, one of the four classical elements of nature, is a symbol of willpower, creativity, and purification. It is both destroyer and creator, representing the sacred flame within us that drives us to awaken and evolve. When we are in rhythm with its energy, we can alchemize personal transformation, enhance our passions, and reaffirm our vitality. It represents our divine spark that fuels creation and ambition and gives birth to desire and courage. Fire has been used for centuries in releasing and spiritual ceremonies for purification, to honor the Sun, and to ward off darkness.
In astrology, the Fire element rules the signs Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius. People born under these signs are believed to embody traits of confidence, passion, and leadership qualities.
Our Solar Plexus Chakra is connected with the Fire element. It governs our willpower, confidence, and motivation. When it is aligned we cultivate an authentic life and are in control of our choices.
Archangels Michael and Uriel are closely associated with the Fire element. Archangel Michael is often depicted with a flaming sword representing purification and protection from low lying energies. Call upon them when in need of motivation, courage, and to illuminate our inner divine spark.
Our favorite crystals to work with the Fire element are Carnelian, Sunstone, Garnet, Citrine, and Hematoid Fire Quartz. They remind us that we are in control of our emotions and willpower, help to align our Solar Plexus Chakra, and ignite our passions.
To tap into the energy of Fire, you can engage in activities to promote clarity and self-confidence such as Yoga poses (Boat and Chair pose), a fire ceremony or light candles for releasing, practice Breath of Fire Breathwork, or a walking Meditation.
Fire is the element of transmutation. It reminds us of the divine spark within us all and empowers us along our spiritual journey!
Sacred geometry describes mathematical and geometric patterns that are believed to hold spiritual significance. These patterns can be found in nature, art, and architecture, and are thought to represent the fundamental building blocks of the universe. They can be used as tools for meditation, visualization, and manifestation. By focusing on the shapes and symbols, you can align yourself with the cosmic energies and access deeper spiritual truths. They are seen as a way to connect with the Divine, to understand the underlying order of the universe, and to tap into higher levels of consciousness.
The Sri Yantra embodies the union of the divine masculine and feminine, the cosmos, and the journey toward spiritual enlightenment. Used throughout history in meditation and Vedic traditions, it is considered a sacred tool for manifesting abundance, inner harmony, and higher consciousness.
It consists of nine interlocking triangles, radiating from a central point (bindu), enclosed within a lotus and a square. These triangles symbolize the balance between the dynamic (Shiva) and receptive (Shakti) cosmic forces, making it a powerful instrument for spiritual awakening.
Sri Yantra can be used to attract prosperity and success. Its geometric structure resonates with the frequencies of abundance, helping align thoughts and energy with material and spiritual wealth. Setting intentions and using this sacred geometry in a crystal grid will help amplify and ground in your desires.
It can also be used to balance the chakras and aligning the your body, mind, and spirit. This shape generates a unique frequency that clears energetic blockages, promoting inner peace and well-being.
Used in meditation, it can help awaken higher states of awareness and deepen spiritual insight. Its intricate patterns engage both hemispheres of the brain, leading to heightened mental clarity and deep meditative states.
Sri Yantra reflects the golden ratio (Phi) and the Fibonacci sequence, patterns found throughout nature and the cosmos. This connection suggests that the symbol resonates with the universal blueprint, helping you to attune to the divine order of existence.
The Sri Yantra is more than just an ancient symbol-it is a gateway to higher wisdom, inner harmony, and universal abundance. This sacred geometric design holds the power to offer a profound connection to the Divine!
The Earth has been honored as a divine force and revered by many cultures throughout history. It is a reminder of our connection to nature and the importance of maintaining balance between material and spiritual life. It is the third planet from our sun and is symbolic of grounding, our relationship with the physical world, and practicality.
Humanity has connected with Earth's energy through goddesses and gods. Some commonly known goddesses of Mother Earth are Gaia (The primordial Earth Mother, the personification of Earth itself representing creation, fertility, and nurturing.), the Roman goddess Terra, the Andean goddess Pachamama , and the Celtic goddess Cerridwen. Gods that were revered for their connection to Earth were the Egyptian god Geb and the Celtic god Dagda. Aligning with their energies can help to deepen your connection to nature and foster a greater sense of harmony within your lives. Native Americans have long held a loving, respectful relationship with Mother Earth. They share beautiful creation stories of the Spider Grandmother and White Buffalo Woman.
Elementals
Earth elementals represent the spirit of the land, forests, and mountains. Many cultures formed a working relationship with these guardian elementals. For example, Gnomes, Dryads, Faeries, and Dwarves are beings that work the Earth's minerals, guardian spirits of the land, and are associated with ancient wisdom and protection.
Grounding
We recently sat down with Kelly Johnson, Reiki Master Teacher, to learn more about the benefits and importance of grounding as way to connect with Earth's energy.
"Grounding is an activity that reconnects you to the Earth, restoring the electrical balance within your body. It can be done directly by spending time in nature, by being in touch with the elements. Or it can be done indirectly through meditation and other activities. By being grounded we experience greater balance, calm, clarity and insight.
Grounding is an important practice because of the many benefits it can have immediately and over time.. If you are feeling depleted, sluggish, empty or just indifferent, grounding allows you to draw a quick energetic boost from the Earth. Energy can also flow the other way. Grounding also allows us to release energy down into the Earth if we are in a state of excess energy such as anger, frustration, worry or feelings of overwhelm."
How to Honor Earth
This Earth Day, we can take time to reflect on our relationship with our planet, not just a resource but as a sacred and living entity. By recognizing the spiritual forces that govern the Earth, we can deepen our connection to the land and take responsibility for its well-being!
The Earth element, one of the four elements, is the foundation of stability, strength, and grounding in many spiritual traditions. It embodies nourishment, abundance, and our connection to nature and all living things. It is also associated with growth, fertility, and endurance, offering a sense of security and balance to those who embrace its energy.
In astrology the Earth signs, (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn) are known for their reliable, practical nature and down-to-earth approach. People born under this sign provide others with a stable foundation and a sense of security.
The Earth element is connected with the Root Chakra. This energy center located at the base of the spine, is responsible for grounding our energy and keeping us secure. When our Root Chakra is aligned and balanced, we have clarity of mind, maintain emotional composure through difficult feelings, and our life force energy remains intact.
Archangel Uriel, known as the "Bringer of Light", is closely associated with the Earth element. He can be called upon for those seeking guidance and in need of clarity during challenging situations.
All crystals resonate with the Earth element but these are our favorites for working with the specific grounding and nurturing energy of the Earth: Hematite, Moss Agate, Obsidian, Smoky Quartz, Tourmaline, and Petrified Wood. Hematite in particular is especially powerful for connecting to the Earth's core.
To connect with the Earth element, there are a variety of ways to engage in activities that will offer you stability and ground your energy. Aromatherapy can offer benefits such as a relaxation and restore balance to your body, mind, and spirit. Our favorite oils to diffuse for their ability to connect with Earth's natural rhythms are Cedarwood, Vetiver, Frankincense, and Patchouli. Yoga poses such as Mountain Pose, Child's Pose, Warrior Pose, and Tree Pose, "earthing", guided meditations, building a crystal grid, and herbalism are all ways to connect with the grounding and nurturing Earth element.
The Earth element offers a strong foundation for spiritual growth, healing, and manifestation. By incorporating Earth element crystals, aromatherapy, and grounding practices, you can cultivate stability, prosperity, and a deep connection with nature. Embrace the wisdom of the Earth, and let it guide you toward a more balance and abundant life!

Step 2: Place the appropriate crystals on each chakra center.
Step 3: Relax for 10-15 minutes; allowing the crystals to connect with each chakra.
Step 4: To end the session, gently remove the crystal and reflect on how you're feeling or if you received any messages or visions.
Crystal grids are a powerful way to amplify healing energy! (Read our blog post for more details on how to use crystal grids for manifestation and how they can support your intentions.)
Step 1: Arrange crystals in a geometric pattern on a crystal grid template or anywhere in an undisturbed area of your home.
Step 2: Place a Clear Quartz point in the center to boost the energy flow. Using your intuition, arrange crystals in a pattern on your grid. Choose crystals that will correspond and amplify the energy of the chakra(s) you're wanting to align and balance.
Step 3: Set an intention for the chakra(s) you're working on.
Step 4: Meditate with the grid during your regular meditation practice.
If you want continuous energy support throughout the day, wear chakra stone jewelry.
Chakra balancing doesn’t have to be complicated. Whether you use crystals, meditation, or simple affirmations, tuning into your energy centers can make a big difference in how you feel. Start small, trust the process, and enjoy the journey to a more balanced and vibrant you. Try out these practices yourself to experience the magic!
