The Merchant’s Stone Citrine is a top manifestation, imagination, and personal will stone. It is warm and welcoming, energetic, and life-giving, as it carries the power of the sun. It activates the chakras in the same way that spring sunlight does, clarifying the mind and rousing the soul to action. Its frequency stimulates creativity and imagination while also sustaining the process of manifesting dreams and wishes. Citrine, with its pure golden energy, promotes the fullness of life, new beginnings, and new endeavors. Natural citrine does not contain or accumulate negative energy; rather, it transmutes, dissipates, and grounds it, making it...
THE FEAR OF CRITICISM It is difficult, if not impossible, to identify how man gained this basic dread, but one thing is certain: he has it in a well-developed form. Some believe that this fear first appeared in man’s consciousness around the time that politics emerged. Others say it can be dated back to the inaugural gathering of a female organization known as a “Woman’s Club.” Another school of humorists attributes the origin to the contents of the Holy Bible, whose chapters are rife with scathing and harsh criticism.

THE FEAR OF DEATH To many, this is the worst of the six basic fears, and the reason for this is evident to even the most cursory student of psychology. The dreadful pains of the fear linked with DEATH can be directly attributed to religious fanaticism, which is more responsible than all other sources combined. So-called “heathens” are less terrified of DEATH than the “civilized,” particularly that segment of the civilized population that has been influenced by theology. For hundreds of millions of years, man has asked the still unsolved (and possibly unanswerable) question, “WHY?” as well as “How did...
Lord of the Crossroads Eleguá (Elegguá) is sometimes depicted as a child and other times as an elderly man. He signifies the beginning and end of life, as well as the opening and closing of life’s paths. He enjoys playing practical pranks on people and is sometimes referred to as the trickster. He is fond of candy and toys. Despite his infantile demeanor, he is an extremely powerful orisha. He is a member of the Warriors, along with Ogn, Ochosi, and Osun. Eleguá is always mentioned first in any ritual since the connection with the other Orishas is impossible without...
