"My Authentic Self" - Chakra Mirror (Placed 3rd in Glass/Arts North International 2021

Metaphysical Properties:

This mirror creation was very much channeled - different stones wanted to be used and I listened.  The overall energy is of protection of the solar plexus and naval chakras, with some heart/throat compassion energy pulsing gently throughout.  This is a lovely soft and ethereal mirror and promises to instantly make you feel a deep calm, loved, and grounded.

Tsavorite: a stone in the garnet family and one of compassion.  It rims the mirror strategically to pull you in to find your inner beauty.

Serpentine: (one of my favorites!) is used for protection and to bring inner peace.  In ancient civilizations it was thought to protect one from demonic powers.

Green jasper: A stone of balance, heals dis ease, and obsession.

Turquoise: Provides protection against harm and lifts depression.

Citrine and Peridot: Combined for compassion, self-confidence, and the ability to transmute negative thoughts.

Tiger Eye: Heals the naval and solar plexus chakras, symbolizes unity.  This was the last stone that wanted to be included and I did feel like the embellishments all came together with the addition of this mineral.

Marble: The lovely soft green marble is what started this mirror off - This mineral is used to provide both clarity in meditation,  Provides for strength of self control and mastery of thought. It enhances the powers of serenity.

In addition, I used some Czech crystal and my favorite metal, copper, a conduit for positive energy and to amplify the energies of the other minerals.
