um...

2:37 AM


ok, i have clearly been having fun with these blogthings lately. they are so silly, but somehow, through the waves of the internet and with their broad, one-size-fits-all questions, there appears to be some truth behind it. i mean, aren't you interested in knowing what kind of weather you represent? (bright and sunny) or, what kind of sandwich you are? (good ol' grilled cheese). its riveting stuff. but how about that truth? such a powerful word. i have a new necklace from a beautiful jeweler here in miyako, made with lots of stones, mainly lapis. lapis is so beautiful, a dark purple blue with flecks of gold in it. its also quite a powerful stone, said to be the stone of truth and friendship.

about the stone: "the romans believed it to be a powerful aphrodisiac. in the Middle Ages, it was thought to keep the limbs healthy and free the soul from error, envy and fear. Attributed with great healing, purifying and curative properties, Lapis Lazuli points the way to enlightenment, and aids in the opening of the Third Eye. Popular with ancient alchemists (who knew it as sapphirus), it was used in medicine, cosmetics and paintings. It was also believed to confer ability, success, divine favor, ancient wisdom and cure sore throats. This stone is for Understanding, Higher guidance, intuition, connection to higher self, overview, decisions for good of all. Organizes, quiets mind. Self-expression, writing, creativity, dream insight...Anxiety, restlessness, insomnia, autism, shyness, nervous system; , speech, hearing, pituitary, lymph, inflammation, pain (especially head), protection."

ouuu... i like it. i like it a lot. something about this stone, its properties. seems to fit into the never-ending puzzle that is my life at the moment. it may be just what i need, in fact.
