"Look with your eyes. Hear with your ears. Speak with your voice and LIVE from your heart."
Temple stone has a very gentle nature. Very similar to those in life who have a quiet/soft spoken countenance that demands your attention.
"As above, so below. I am all that is known and that which has yet to be discovered." And so we begin.
Temple Stone has a soft and gentle energy. Peaceful and serene. If I could use one word to describe it, it would be "Reverent".
Temple Stone speaks of reverence for all life. Working with Temple Stone teaches us this, reminding us of our responsibility to the earth, to others and to self. "Take care of the body, the oceans and rivers, the forests and fields, the animal and plant life. This is your duty."
For those who feel a direct connection to the forest and forest folk, I believe this Temple Stone will help to deepen the connection. For those who work with herbs and plants, this Temple Stone will open new doors of knowledge to you.
"When everyone is yelling, you hear no one, only noise. It is for you to seek the one voice."
The white in this mineral represents mother, the feminine, the teacher, the protector. The green represents the heart space birthed from Divine Source, the spark within, the child with wonder filled eyes.
A mother and child come to mind often during this connection. The child wanting to see and do everything, fearless, curious, and intensely aware. The mother watching closely, knowing when to protect her child from dangers and when to let go to grow. We each have experienced both in some way.
Temple Stone is a stone of awareness. The story of the Princess and the Pea comes to mind. A fairy tale about a young woman whose royal identity is established by a test of her physical sensitivity (a pea placed under her mattress, in fact many mattresses).
I am told that Temple Stone is our awareness "pea". Our life here, a test of our sensitivity and awareness of those people and things around us.
Life is a gift. In our busy-ness we let much pass us by. Temple Stone reminds us to stop, to become aware of all that is around us. To see the beauty and awe inspiring events that occur each and every minute. Awareness.
Your time here is short.
Tomorrow is not promised.
Be all you can be, today, NOW.
What would Jesus do (or Mohamed or Mother Mary or whoever you believe in, look up to, worship, or see as a mentor)? Would you walk by a beggar if you knew it was Jesus? What if you were the beggar and Jesus the passer by? Awareness.
Temple Stone will connect you to that Divine Spark, where everything is viewed not from the egoistic mind, but from the heart space that resides within.
Temple Stone is a reminder that there is an abundance of ALL things, including what you may not want. It is imperative that you are in a state of awareness at all times. Awareness of your thoughts and your actions. Clarity in the speaking of them. Gratitude when receiving.
I feel Temple Stone can work to clear and balance from heart to crown, clearing any energy blockages. Oftentimes your sense of awareness can be muddied by these blockages. It will also help to maintain clarity in compassionate action. Temple Stone will help to absorb nutrients more fully into the body, especially plant medicines and plant based food.
Physically, I believe Temple Stone would be helpful in the areas of the eyes and ears, allowing sight and sound to be as clear as possible. It would also aid in making the physical heart strong in healing and recovery.
