🖤🌿 Crystal + Plant Ally | Black Tourmaline + Mugwort
There is something about October that makes me want to explore the spaces between things.
The known and the unknown.
Light and shadow.
What we can see…
and what we can only sense.
Black Tourmaline and Mugwort feel like natural companions for that kind of exploration.
Black Tourmaline is traditionally associated with grounding, boundaries and protection.
Mugwort carries a long history of folklore around dreams, intuition and the liminal spaces between worlds.
But I’m less interested in telling you what either of them should mean to you.
Perhaps it’s more interesting to ask what they invite you to notice.
Where do you need stronger roots?
And where might you allow yourself to remain curious?
Because being open to the unknown doesn’t mean losing your footing.
We can be grounded and curious.
Rooted and receptive.
Perhaps that’s part of what the threshold teaches us.
You don’t need to see the whole path.
Sometimes the lantern is enough for the next step.
🕯️🌿
Until we next meet beneath the trees.
