As a psychic medium, I often have repeat messages coming up for my clients, over different periods of time. The current one seems to be a reminder that JOY needs to be a part of your healing journey.
We often get caught up in the shadow work or get bogged down in one healing 'journey' after another, until you feel like it's never ending! We forget that the whole point of releasing old wounds, is to lessen their control over your life & clear the way for more amazing things... like LOVE & JOY!! We lose ourselves to the heaviness of bringing all the shit up to the surface, only to forget to replace it with something better.
What are the things you no longer do that used to bring you joy? What did you used to do for fun? Did you paint or colour-in? Ride a bike? Travel? Blow bubbles? Enjoy an ice cream cone?Or, like me, did you dance?
Yes, I am on this journey with you... and, yes, I do practice what I jabber on about in my readings and healing sessions ;O) I've always loved music & dancing was a big part of that. Not anything structured, although I attempted some Rock Eisteddfods and classes over the years. I just loved to move, to flow with the music. I recently realised how much I missed it and ended up reliving my early 20's at a gig in Melbourne, dancing to electro tunes from dj's who played many of the festivals & raves I was present at 'back in the day' (if I say late 90's/early 00's, is that showing my age?!! lol!)
It's never too late to find that joy again, and every journey begins with a first step... you may not want to jump in feet first with an event that didn't start until the time I normally go to bed, like I did, so here is my Top 8 crystal suggestions for your happy fix. Plus a candle ritual to get you started on your joy journey and finding what makes your soul sing!!
THE RADIANT MYSTIC'S TOP 8 CRYSTALS FOR JOY & HAPPINESS
SUNSTONE - It's literally named after the Sun, of course this stone will have something to do with joy & happiness! It also is one of the best for self-empowerment, so if you are struggling with feelings of being 'undeserving' or 'unworthy', this is the crystal energy you want to work with.
2. BUMBLEBEE JASPER, DALMATION JASPER or YELLOW JASPER - Apparently,
Bumblebee Jasper & Dalmation Jasper aren't true Jaspers...but I'm throwing them altogether anyway... Dalmation Jasper is especially wonderful for bringing the energy of play back into your life, assisting you with
connecting to your inner child. Bumblebee & Yellow Jaspers bring the confidence to try new things and connection with your vitality. Sorry, I have no Dalmation Jasper to photograph!
3. PEACOCK ORE - Rainbows always bring joy!! This stone boosts your happiness. Clearing the heart of any heaviness or sadness, this stone can open up new pathways. Protection from negative energy.
4. CITRINE - Abundance & happiness. This stone is called the 'Happy Stone' for a reason! Known to bring success & joy. A great crystal to use in manifesting work.
5. RUBY IN ZOISITE (ANYOLITE) - Helps you understand your heart's desires. This is another stone that draws abundance & happiness. A stone of self-discovery and great for manifestation.
6. CHRYSANTHEMUM STONE - Allows you to slow down & enjoy the moment. Reminds you of your divine spark and may bring unexpected opportunities. Helps break through your obstacles to joy in your life.
7. CHRYSOPRASE - A wonderful inner child healer. Helps you focus on the positive & let go of fear-based emotions. Promotes joy and self expression.
8. PERIDOT - I love this gorgeous green crystal!! Assists in bringing a positive outlook on life. Opens your heart to joy and new things. If confidence is an issue, it can assist with courage and assertiveness.
The Radiant Mystic's ‘Make my Soul Dance!’ Joy Candle Ritual
Joy isn’t a one-off, ‘If I light this candle, I’ll be a ray of sunshine!’ kind of deal…this marks the beginning of a healing journey for you. This marks the beginning of changing what is no longer working for you, what is causing you to feel low in energy, bringing awareness to what it is that makes your soul sing, what is blocking you from experiencing joy & positivity.
Before you begin your ritual, you may want to gather any extra items, such as a notepad and pen or journal, a candle holder, or heat proof dish, matches, maybe your oracle cards, & a glass of water. Be sure to read through instructions before you begin. Have everything ready so you can focus on your intentions.
WHAT YOU NEED - Ritual Candle- 1x Orange Candle
Oil & Botanic Suggestions - Calendula, Sunflower, White Copal, Catnip, Marjoram, Hyacinth, Saffron, Frankincense, Lavender, Sandalwood, Palmarosa, Ylang Ylang, & Sweet Orange.
Crystals - Sunstone, Citrine, Yellow Opal & Yellow Jade for happiness, joy, empowerment & positivity OR any of the above mentioned crystals.
CREATE YOUR SACRED SPACE. Light candles (not your Ritual Candle just yet!), set out your crystals, play some calming music, whatever you feel you need to create a peaceful environment. Cleanse your space, and yourself, with sage or incense, cleanse all the items you are using. Ask your Guides and Angels to fill your space with pure white light and visualise that light filling your space, surrounding you and filling you too.
WRITE DOWN 8 things that bring joy & happiness to your heart. Little things to big things. Something you have done, do or experience that never fails to bring a smile to your face or laughter to your soul. Now write out some joy-affirming statements - EG. I AM joyful, I CHOOSE to receive & experience joy & happiness. I WILL make time for my happiness. I HOLD space for myself & honour my needs. Be as specific as you like. Place your list to the side, you can choose to keep it to look back on or you can place it under your candle before you light it.
HOLD YOUR RITUAL CANDLE between your hands and repeat your affirmations, visualising the outcome, seeing it already in existence. visualising the candle being infused with beautiful soft orange or yellow light, feel it filling with the joy that you want to for yourself. Focus on your breathing, focus on ‘infusing’ your candle with the end result…how you want to feel. When you feel this is complete, place your candle to the side.
IF YOU CHOOSE TO USE OIL - Be sure your oil is safe to use on skin. If you are sensitive or have allergies, you may wish to wear gloves. Place a few drops on your fingers. Hold your Ritual Candle with the base towards you, wick facing away. As you are doing two things energetically in this ritual, you want to draw specific energy - joy - TOWARDS you, and you also want to send the negative thoughts AWAY, so rub the oil from the centre to base, rubbing the oil TOWARDS you. Visualise yourself RECEIVING JOY as you do.
Then rub the oil from the centre to the wick, rubbing the oil AWAY from you. Visualise yourself RELEASING all those blocks as you do. With any excess oil massage into your skin with a carrier oil, if safe for you to do so, or anoint your Third Eye & Heart chakras, put some in an oil burner, or pour it into a bath later, or save it for a future ritual. Use your intuition.
PLACE YOUR CANDLE in it’s holder or on a heatproof dish. You may wish to place your list under the plate, as long as the candle will remain stable. Please DO NOT leave your candle unattended! Make sure the area is safe. NOTE - The oil may create a bigger flame.
Light your Ritual Candle. As you do this, take a moment to take a few deep breaths and ground yourself. Read over your affirmations and see these things as done, complete, already existing. You may want to speak your affirmations out loud & repeat them over like a chant, be sure to continue your visualisations. Make a commitment to do those things that bring you joy, on a regular basis.
You may want to do some journaling , pull an oracle card or meditate. If you have a larger candle, you may wish to burn it halfway and repeat this ritual again another time, it is entirely up to you. Use your intuition.
Always give thanks for what is to come. Finish with the affirmation ‘I AM grateful for the joy that is, is coming and that has been. Joy flows to and through me. I release all my blocks, fears & worries’ Or something similar. Wrap up your ritual by stating ‘And so it is’. Thank your Guides & Angels for their assistance.
AFTER YOUR RITUAL you may want to have a ritual bath or shower. Use your oil if you like. Visualise any negative energy, or obstacles blocking you from your joy, washing away in the water. Think on your blessings, then as you let out the plug, or as the water is running, see all your troubles disappear down the plug hole & know this is a clean slate, ready for your new state of joy & optimism.
Blessings and Radiant Light…and remember, you always have control over what goes on INSIDE you, right here, right now, each moment, choose joy. xx Terésa
