I am definitely feeling the spring vibes this weekend. The sun has been bright. Chris and I dug into our list of garden projects. And we headed out for a little nature adventure at a new to us spot (I'll share a bit more about this trip in the coming weeks). Today I want to share with you a fresh podcast episode. It is a conversation with my colleague Tara Preston. She is a new age feminine leader...

Happy Beltane! Today we officially arrive at the midpoint of the Spring Season. This is such a sweet time. It's the time in which we really begin to see and feel the awakening and renewal that comes with the spring season. Between yesterday's new moon, the partial solar eclipse, and today's season midpoint, this is a great time to get outside and spend some quality time in nature. Over the past we...

Welcome Back! In alignment with this season of rebirth, change, and transformation, the podcast has also gone through a bit of change. To begin with, you will notice a new name and cover art. The Crystal Shaman Life Podcast has officially changed to Meet Me in Sacred Space. Spring is a season of rebirth, change, and transformation. As nature springs to life, we may also recognize this within ourse...

Magic is brewing here in my studio. Fresh jewelry designs are being prepped for the upcoming April online show and sale. Website changes have unfolded (perhaps a few more to come). And I've been designing the new cover art for the podcast. Yes, you heard that right, new cover art for the podcast. As we arrive at episode 100 this week I find myself reflecting on some of the podcast highlights. That...

Happy Summer Solstice, Sacred Friends! In this week's episode I'm diving into some of my favorite crystals for the summer season . . . crystals that support us in cultivating a an empowered relationship with the energy of our emotions and with power so that we may deepen into a sense of freedom. As we dive into this episode, you can expect to not only discover great crystal allies for this season,...

Last week as we stepped into this new month we also stepped into the second half of the Spring season (and the 2nd half of the fall season for those of you in the Southern hemisphere). Did you notice that subtle energy shift last week? Vibrant, creative energy is flowing in and inviting us to spring to life in new and unexpected ways. So, with this change of month, I made some changes to my altar,...

Over the past couple of week's I've been sharing a series of podcast episodes about the Four Facets of Crystal Shamanism: crystal connection, earth relationship, shamanic journeying, and this week, ceremony and ritual.  Yes, I've been saving my favorite for last . . .  Ceremony + Ritual.  Since embarking on the shamanic path in 2007, ceremony and ritual have been a central part of my life and my w...

Happy Earth Day (yesterday) . . . Week . . . Month . . . Year! Ok, how about every day is Earth Day! But let me say, mama Earth was feeling the love yesterday and she's super grateful

In this week's episode of the Crystal Shaman Life podcast I'm diving into the 2nd Facet of Crystal Shamanism: Earth Relationship.  Mmm . . . I love this topic! Over the years, as I've been walking the path of the crystal shaman, I've been noticing how much more attuned I have become to my local landscape, and to the sacred sites in this area. Yes, Northeast Wisconsin is filled with sacred sites an...

I'm so excited to be connecting with you this week to share a new podcast episode. Yay! I know, it's been a bit . . . between mercury retrograde, winter, and being immersed in teaching, I was deep in a creative cave. That's a space I love to be in and I gave myself time to linger there. As the spring season has been finding steadiness, I've been feeling ready to crack out of that creative cave and...

I'm curious, did you happen to catch last week's episode of the Crystal Shaman Life podcast? . . . the 2019 crystal forecast. Find the replay + video here:  https://loriaandrus.com/2019-crystal-forecast/ There's something really potent about doing such a reading. The crystals that show up, are both offering insights and also extending their support for the coming year. This is super cool! And it i...

I'm a bit slow on getting this message out, but here it is, just in time for February; the 2019 Crystal Forecast. Each year I love to do both a personal crystal reading as well as a collective crystal forecast. It's always interesting to see which crystals want to show up as allies for the year. So last Friday I popped on for a FB Live and drew the crystals for 2019. I've turned that video into a...

I was awakened a little after 5 this morning as a text popped in from a dear friend sharing this link. I was stunned last year when Doreen renounced her 'New Age Practices', left her career as a writer of oracle cards, training angel readers and mediums to become born again. But this post, ugh . . . I am so greatly disappointed. I get that she may feel called to a different path. I get that she ma...
