Good morning, welcome to the Weekly Lenormand.
This week’s message with Stork and Ship suggests powerful movement.

The Stork represents positive change, upgrades, and transitions. The Ship expands on that energy, symbolizing travel, distance, exploration, and stepping into wider possibilities.

Together, the cards suggest that change is already in motion. Whether literal travel, relocation, new business opportunities, or emotional growth, something is shifting in a way that broadens your perspective and opens new potential.

This is not chaotic or last minute change, it’s purposeful expansion. You may feel a desire to step outside your comfort zone or consider opportunities that stretch beyond your usual environment.

Embrace it! Say yes to growth. Trust that this transition is guiding you toward an exciting future. Change requires movement, and movement is happening now. Have a fantastic week.

Welcome to another Crystal Thursday. I am excited to share this week's selection of mineral and crystal loveliness. This is another trade-name beauty called Volcano Agate, which is agate adjacent in that it’s formed differently from the agate we’re familiar with.

The agate family is formed in two ways. The variety we’re accustomed to is sedimentary hosted, made when silica-rich water finds its way into the cracks and crevices of sandstone, shale, or limestone and settles. Over time, layers grow, forming the colorful stone we love. Today's subject is volcanically hosted. Naming it Volcano Agate makes sense. It forms in volcanic rock such as basalt and rhyolite as lava cools. It’s agate adjacent because it’s a chalcedony; there is no clear banding.

The colors of this stone are earthy rusts, reds, greys, and nice mossy greens. I’ve read in one source that shades of blue occur, but I haven't seen blue. The Mohs hardness scale is 6.5 to 7. It’s a wonderful choice for jewelry, home décor, talismans, and meditation.

I love the energy of this stone; it’s made of transformational fire. The chakra associations are the root and sacral chakra. The energy is grounding, energizing, smooth, and intense. This fire helps channel energy in productive and creative ways. Its grounding energy stabilizes life's chaos and structures it for productive action. Chalcedony is a member of the quartz family.

As a chalcedony, Volcano Agate is a quartz. Formed in volcanic flow, bridging structure, and transformation. It reminds us that stability and change coexist. See you next week.

People exhaust themselves trying to be everything to everyone. They show up, give freely, and carry burdens that aren’t theirs. Over time, that care and devotion turn them into the invisible backbone everyone depends on but rarely notice and seldom thank.

Caring isn’t wrong. Helping others isn’t either. But pouring yourself into everyone while leaving nothing for yourself comes at a cost.

A Monday Moment for consideration.

Grand Rising and welcome to the Weekly Lenormand for the collective. This week’s message includes a jumper card, Dog, which sets the overall tone for the week. Dog reminds us of loyalty, trust, and genuine support. It encourages us to pay attention to who truly has our best interests at heart.

The cards offering guidance are Garden, Mice, and Birds. Garden points to social spaces, group settings, and community interactions. The Mice card suggests stress, worry, or energy being slowly drained, and Birds highlight conversations, mental chatter, and ongoing dialogue that can increase anxiety.

Together, these cards suggest that a social environment or conversations may feel draining or overwhelming this week. Too much outside input or noise can chip away at your peace if you’re not mindful of it.

With Dog as a guide, the reminder is clear. Lean on trusted connections rather than spreading your energy too thin. Quality matters more than quantity this week. Supportive, loyal relationships will help restore balance, clarity, and calm. Have a great week.

Good morning. It’s Crystal Thursday, and this week’s topic is an intriguing obsidian I discovered called Midnight Lace.

It’s not a geologically recognized type of obsidian; it’s a descriptive trade name for a style of volcanic glass. What makes it stand out are the straight and curving flow bands visible in the dark brown to black stone. These bands form as thick, slow-moving rhyolitic or dacitic lava flows, stretching and folding like pulled taffy before cooling.

While researching Midnight Lace, I had a huge light bulb moment. Midnight Lace isn’t the only banded obsidian. Rainbow Obsidian, Mahogany Obsidian, and Gold and Silver Sheen Obsidians are banded! I had to laugh because I have specimens of these three and never made the connection! The difference with Midnight Lace is that it’s transparent, and the banding is more obvious.

Like all obsidians, Midnight Lace has a Mohs of 5 to 5.5. It can be used for jewelry, but it’s volcanic glass, so care should be taken to prevent scratching or breakage. Chakra associations are linked with the root and the third eye. I love the energy of this connection, grounding to awareness.

It’s fascinating that obsidians are grounding and born of fire. That fire energy leaves you feeling both stable and empowered. For me, the layered banding represents moving through challenges gradually, releasing blockages one layer at a time rather than all at once. It offers a sense of safety while encouraging clarity and confidence as you move forward.

Midnight Lace Obsidian is geologically, visually, and metaphysically amazing. In my opinion, it’s a stone worth having in your collection and spiritual toolkit.

See you next week!

Sometimes blessings come loud and full of emotion. They come with chaos that’s disruptive and confusing. Deep in that moment, it’s rarely seen as a gift. The thing about chaos is that clarity comes when we see what’s changed after the storm clears. Not everything that tries to break us is working against us.

A Monday Moment for consideration.

Grand Rising, everyone, welcome to the Weekly Lenormand for the collective. This week’s guidance focuses on communication, care, and growth. Our cards are Birds, Tree, and Lady from the lovely Celtic Lenormand.

The Birds card highlights conversations about issues we may be aware of, haven’t addressed, and need attention. They won’t go away until we do. The Tree card represents grounding, health, and growth. These discussions remind us that our overall well being is something that must be nurtured. The Lady represents an important female presence or feminine energy in our lives, whether that is you or a woman close to your heart.

Together, these cards suggest that compassionate, supportive conversations around health, personal growth, or emotional well-being may come up this week, prompted or influenced by this loving woman. These discussions are meant to encourage awareness and care.

Speak openly and listen with your heart. Whether you are offering support or receiving it, keep the conversation healing and focused on growth. A loving, care filled conversation now will help nurture long term balance and wellness. Have a great week.

Blessed Be ~ Sharon

Good, Crystal, Thursday, everyone. Today, we are looking at a stone from the tiger’s eye family called Nellite. Nellite is a trade name for a variety of Tigers Eye made from a combination of the well-known Tiger’s Eye and either Hawk’s Eye or Pietersite which gives this stone a lovely blue shimmer. These four mentioned above are the core of the family. There are others, but they are assigned trade names based on color or structure differences. It’s all Tigers Eye, and gorgeous!

Sources I read say Nellite was discovered sometime in 1910 in South Africa or Namibia. This broad date range is questionable because Nellite has never been documented as a geological discovery. Nellite is a trade name for a tiger’s eye family stone. I also read that it’s considered rare, a better word would be uncommon, because it does occur where the specific structural and mineral conditions are met.

As a member of the Tigers Eye and Quartz families, the Mohs scale is 6.5 to 7. It works well for jewelry and home décor. The chakra associations align with the root, solar plexus, and third eye.

Nellite’s energy is smooth yet effective in how it supports those who work with it. With the root chakra, it grounds and balances scattered energy, helping you think clearly, listen to your intuition, and make well thought out decisions. Working with the solar plexus Nellite inspires confidence in your personal power, determination, and the willpower to get things done. With the third eye chakra, its energy opens insight and awareness to different perspectives, allowing clarity needed to make the next move.

I hope you enjoyed today’s Crystal Thursday. Nellite is an interesting stone with wonderful energy. I encourage you to work with Nellite to see how it can support your life. See you next week.

Blessed Be ~ Sharon
