0:01Welcome to Demystify Magic with Molly and Madison.I'm Molly, a former skeptic turned full time energy healer and teacher.And I'm Madison, a born and raised witch running my family's crystal shop.And we're here to explore all things woo through the lens of both science and spirituality, so that you can find the moments of magic in your everyday life and create an intentional spiritual practice.0:20So if that's what you're into, find a cozy spot, take a deep breath, and let's demystify some magic.Howdy do today?Howdy, mother, Truck and duty.Howdy, mother, Truck and Duty.You have a new background today.What's?What's going on?0:35It's my first time recording from my new house in the midst of my first tropical storm in my new house.So exciting.Sending the driest of energy to all of the Southern listeners I know.0:53It's been a little bit of a doozy.A doozy I I could use some dry energy up here.It's still humid as heck.In Maine, are we sweating?We're sweating.We are so sweating.I I'm sweating in part to me, I didn't realize sweat.1:09My office was so hot the other day.As we've talked about on the pod before, I don't have AC in my office.It's a very old house.Whatever my fingers were pruning by the end of.I hate it here.I hate it.Yeah.So anyways, we are capping off our Chakra series with the Crown.1:37It's our crowning.Achievement.Yep.Tiara you excited?I have no words for that one.We are.We are.Oh my God, Molly's made her something.1:53We worked so hard.I'm watching her struggle to compose herself.We we're.No, no.Oh God, I fear, I fear, I fear her big one is coming.We are gonna alienate die a damn listening.2:12My mom called.I have to go.There's been a family emergency.I have to leave right this instant.Don't take me to court over these puns.It's so that'd be a royal pain.And no one knows why the Demystify Magic podcast was never heard from.2:36Again, it was thrown out.You're cancelled.I've been waiting.I'm just, I've been waiting.Oh God, nothing's going to top that.2:59I'll see myself out.This is this is pick up a one woman show No.Anyways, before I get ahead of myself, what was your magic moment of the week?3:18You've really you've really set me up because my magic moment this week is very sappy and you were my magic moment this week.Me.But now I'm taking it all the way because you did too many funds.No, there's just no other word for it other than like, I've had a no good, very bad week.3:37Like just having a shit time.Like no way to sugarcoat it.Moving really sucks.Work has been hard.My root, she's so wonky.And I think my biggest fear with starting the podcast with you and I was that our friendship would change.3:55And we didn't record last week because it was a no good, very bad week.And we just, you know, a pipe burst in the house.Everything's fine.There were no casualties except for a few books, like everything's OK.But it was just like a no good, very bad mental brain space.4:12And it was just such a welcome reminder that like, we really are friends first above anything else.And I'm really grateful for that.And you were just so there for me all the time.And our friendship is my magic moment.I just love you and thank you for being you.4:28I love you.I love you.Is now a good time for me to be mad at you because I'm going to be in Florida when you're not?I know I'm really pissed off about it.So rude.I'm sorry.I wanted to go to Animal Kingdom, get myself a churro.I'm going to have to come back down.4:43Oh no.Oh no, that's so nice though, I love you.I love you.What was your magic moment this week?My magic moment feels like I doesn't even feel real because Reiki training registration opened on Friday to the wait list and we opened about twice as many spaces as last time because we made some changes to the program so that we could have more people in without sending my sanity and my route into a tailspin.5:19Without descending a tropical storm upon your chakra system.Yeah, yeah.I'm just so excited to meet 157 new friends in the community and get to watch this thing grow and grow and grow.And yeah, it's just cool because the people who are in it are really excited to be in it.5:41And that's the energy that I want in the community.That's the energy I want in the training.I think that it makes the training work so much better when you come in and you're just like, I'm fucking ready.I'm ready to commit to this.And yeah, I'm just, I'm, I'm just excited.5:59I'm just so grateful.I'm so excited, I'm so proud of you.Thanks friend.All right, now on to our crowning achievement.The Crown, not the popular Netflix television show.I do like that show though.Never seen it.Oh.6:15Oh wow, I didn't expect such disappointment in your voice.I'm sorry.We'll talk about that after.For another podcast.About coming to a court of Molly and Madison soon.Why Madison won't watch The Crown?6:31Also, I get a message probably once a week asking if I've seen Aladdin yet.The answer is no.I'm sorry I haven't seen most things.I understand it.When we do our lock in at the store with Anthony, we will watch Aladdin.We should just have a big ol watching party.We should.6:47We should just all hop on zoom together and watch Aladdin.Yeah, I'm down for that.Our people will talk to y'all's people.Get some chicken salad, chick.Get a peppermint mocha.Get a churro.Let's do it anyways.7:03The crown chakra.The crown is so interesting because we're going to say it again for the 17th millionth time, if you were just starting the series here, stop, go back, start at the root.Because truly, when it comes to the crown, the magical thing about this chakra is if you just start with a crown, you're going to fight and fight and fight your way through.7:27But if you start from the root and you really establish a solid foundation and you work your way up through all the levels, the crown just opens it just like it.It's oftentimes it's represented by a, a Lotus flower with 1000 petals.7:43And that's really how I see it is it's just kind of like if you have deep, deep, deep, deep roots and you send that nourishment up from the root up through the lower chakras all the way up to the third eye, all the way up to the crown.It's like that Lotus flower just blooms, and it just blooms really beautifully.And the crown chakra is so connected to our spirituality, our consciousness, our sense of interconnectedness, right?8:06Like this idea that you and I are not separate you, and the headphones you're listening to are not separate you.And you know who you were yesterday, who you were going to be, you know, 10 years from now are not separate.We're all interconnected.8:23And, and it's interesting because the third eye and the crown have the same seed sound.And that seed sound is ohm.And we talked about how ohm is that, that vibration of universal consciousness, right?We're one light in multiple bodies.And it's really this beautiful idea that like, we are not, you know, just cogs in a machine.8:46We are a machine in a way.I'm such a science geek that I always think about like particle theory.And I think about how what we perceive to be solid is in fact just densely populated particles that are all vibrating at different frequencies.And so those particles interact with the particles of the air around you, and then those interact with the particles of the things in front of you and the people and whatever.9:10And it's kind of like that's how we're all interconnected, right?We're all breathing the same air, we're all made-up of the same particles, we're all interacting with each other, right?Like the butterfly effect is a beautiful example of this where a butterfly can flap its wings and across the world, the weather pattern can change.9:28And I just think the, the crown chakra is this reminder of that interconnectedness.And when we are reminded that we're all connected, that helps us bring about the sense of compassion, of empathy, right?Because if your pain is my pain and my pain is your pain, then I'm probably going to be less likely to inflict pain on either of us, right?9:54And so compassion becomes kind of the default setting of the crown.And that is what creates this like sense of spiritual growth, the sense of presence it.And it's connected to, like we said with the the third eye.10:10It's sort of like there's some controversy about whether the third eye is the pineal gland or the pituitary gland.But I always see the crown as the pituitary gland because that is the like the master gland.It supports the functions of pretty much all of our our, our vital functions.10:29It it supports all the rest of our hormones, our metabolism, our growth or reproduction, our blood pressure.It regulates the endocrine system in general.So it affects all of the glands below it, right?10:45All the ones that we've talked about before.So that's why again, like it's a back and forth.The root supports the crown, but the crown also supports the root.They're all connected.It's so deeply connected with the nervous system, which we have talked about ad nauseam.11:02But it also like if we think about when we have a nervous system that is really regulated, we can tap into our intuition, we can tap into our wisdom, we can tap into our compassion, we can have logical reasoning, we can have more more defined thought processes rather than just like reacting to things out of habit.11:23And I think all of that comes from this reminder that we are connected, that you are not alone, right?Like the universe has your back.You are the universe.The universe is you.And I think when we aren't as grounded in those lower chakras, it's hard to reach that place, right?11:43If you, if you do not have a solid foundation of like a roof over your head and food to eat, it's really fucking difficult to see yourself as one with the universe, right?To believe that the universe has your back.Of course, of course that's difficult, right?12:00Like just like it would be fucking asinine if I said to you like just remember we're all connected and like the universe will support you when you're struggling, right?Like that struggle, overcoming that struggle has to come first.Yeah, I was gonna say like, not only is it difficult, it's also maybe like a little bit unnecessary to focus on the interconnectedness.12:23Like, not to say, I don't know the best way to say it.Your focus should be on the foundation.Yeah.Like, those are in like the hierarchy of importance, the roof over your head, which now has become this metaphor that we'll use throughout the series for for the root chakra.12:40I think about it.It's hard not to make metaphors out of the fact that the pipers in my house last week, you know, I imagine specifically like Molly's standing there being like, well, you know, just remember you're a part of a, a greater spiritual interconnected being.Like we're all in this together as I'm like literally with a broom pushing water out of my home like.13:01Like imagine if I was like, I know you don't have running water right now but like we're all connected and the universe has your back.Like that's fucked.Yeah.And so like, your pain is my pain and also my water in my house that you can't access is your water in your house, you know, like it's, it's all the same.13:19Yeah.And it's like, I think, I think it's so interesting in the spiritual community because there's this like myth or belief, I guess that if we reach enlightenment, things like pipe bursting in your house don't happen or you're not affected by it.13:36And that's not the case, I think.I think it's so easy, like when people bypass the lower chakras to just kind of jump to the crown and spiritually bypass themselves, right?13:52Like pull the wool over their third eye.And just, we had a bunch of questions about spiritual bypassing that came in.It's basically like when you try and love and light your way through life, you know, like if you're like, I know that you can't afford rent right now, but if you just believe that you have $1,000,000, it will show up in your bank account.14:09Or you if the reason you can't pay rent right now is because you don't have an abundant mindset.Yeah, or your thoughts are making you sick.So just think different thoughts, like hello, if my thoughts were the thing that made things happen in my region, I wouldn't, I would have $1,000,000 like we all would probably.14:25And so like, that's, that's the, that's why we're so harping on like starting with that route because if you don't have that foundation, it's really easy to bypass yourself and to start blaming yourself and saying the pipe burst in my house because I thought a negative thought or the pipe burst in my house because I didn't have an abundance mindset or whatever.14:46When in reality, like, shit happens.Shit happens.And being a spiritual being isn't, you know, never feeling that shit, never being affected by that shit.Being a spiritual being and being deeply connected with the entire chakra system, including the crown is going OK.15:06A pipe burst in my house.What am I going to do about it?Am I going to ignore how I feel and try to push through it and record a podcast even though I feel completely frazzled to de prioritize my own needs for everyone else?15:22Or am I going to pretend like it's not a big deal and I can just meditate my way through it?Or am I going to say it was no good very bad week and I just need rest and God damn it, I'm going to listen to that need and I'm gonna take a step back.15:38Beautifully said.Sorry for using you as an example, but you know.If we can get some good content out of it, it was all worth it.You know, that's all that's really all I'm here for is just to provide you some excellent metaphors with my life experience.15:55And I will say that like that moment was a real realization for me of like the work that I've done paying off because I don't know if you know this about me, but I am a little bit of a nervous Nelly.16:12I am often, you know, at a level of vibration that is.You're living life on a simmer.Just a little bit and standing in my bedroom and having wet feet and handling that and not knowing where my water shut off was.16:32If I could, if I could impart one piece of knowledge on all of you.And everybody who has had this happen before is like, yeah, dummy.Like, of course, you move into a house.You figure out where your water shut off is the day you get the keys.Because you know the worst part?16:49This is the second time this has happened to me.What?Once a pipe, like it didn't burst something.I don't remember exactly what happened, but something went wrong under my sink in my old apartment and it literally rained under my sink like two years ago.And I didn't know where the water shut off was.And I still didn't do this.But anyways, if I could put one piece of knowledge on all of you, if you move into a new place, find the water shut off.17:08But yeah, it was, it was that moment where I was like, oh, shit.Even amongst this like wonky route that I've got going on, I have a level of stability that I don't think that I even would have had a year ago.17:25Yeah, yeah.And so I think that even like those really it's, it really is when your root becomes wonky that you can recognize how far you've come in terms of spiritual growth.Yeah, and somehow in the Crown episode we're still talking about the root.17:43What else is new?I feel like this has just been one long root chakra podcast.If we've convinced you of anything in this entire series, it's a find out where your water shut off valve.Is.And B prioritize your route, yes.But anyways, if you've been following along for some color magic with the crown chakra, white and purple are going to be your colors and for some sound healing.18:11I know Molly already told us that the seeds on his own, but if you're looking on YouTube you're going to want to look up 963 Hertz.Yes, OK, so some low effort rituals.18:26Number one, we literally sat down and we're like, OK, what are some rituals we can share?We came up with like 3 and then we're like honestly the biggest ritual that both of us can recommend is to work on your lower 6 chakras.Yeah, we, we sat down and I immediately was like, you know, I don't, I do a ton of work with my crown.18:44Just happens.My crown just kind of does her own thing when everything else is in line.Yeah.And so I think the best thing that you can do for your crown chakra is to check in with the rest of your energy centers.19:02It's like an ice cream sundae.You know what's the most important part of the ice cream sundae?The bowl, Yes.Yes, I literally was going to say the bowl.Yes, right.OK, so root chakra is your bowl.OK, Sacral is your spoon, Solar plexus is the ice cream itself.19:23The heart is the hot fudge, the throat is the whipped cream, the third eye is the sprinkles, and the crown is the cherry on top.OK, don't try to just carry a bowl of whipped cream, sprinkles and cherries, all right?19:38With no spoon.Don't just try to carry whipped cream, no.It it's not, especially in this heat, Yeah.It's not gonna go well.Yeah.So, yeah, work on those lower ones and the upper ones will just just happen.19:55Another really great opportunity to work on the crown is being in community in some way, shape or form.So this could be like your literal community, like volunteering.You know, if you have any sort of like, worship practice in community, if you have a coven, a book club, a political campaign that you feel called to work on.20:19Or it could be just like, you know, for me when I'm feeling like a little bit disconnected from humanity, which happens because I work from home and I sometimes don't see other humans outside of my family for multiple days at a time.I'll just go to a coffee shop and sit down and just like, chat, right?20:39Like connect with your your, connect with beings outside of yourself.Yeah, I also think like if you don't have places like that, a, a public place to practice your worship, a coven literally going to your local metaphysical store.20:58And even if it's not talking to anyone, I think being in a space where other people like there's a, there's almost like a mutual understanding of this shared thing that is a really like a true low effort way to be in community.The other thing I was thinking too is whenever I feel disconnected from my spiritual practice I try to move my practice into community.21:24So a lot of my spiritual practice is just self because I recharge using my spiritual practice and I am so extroverted 90% of the time.But I recharge as an introvert.So I tend to do my spiritual practice in solitude, but I find when I disconnect from it, I need, I need to be in a social setting.21:48So I like literally I said to you yesterday, I was like, I need you to yell at me to go to a yoga class.And then I said go to yoga and she said no.So, OK, I'm gonna, I'm gonna go this week.I'm gonna go this week.I'm gonna go this week.22:03To be fair, my the usual teacher was not there.So I, I was like, OK, this is like two strikes again.Two strikes.You're out.Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.We're not waiting for.I just, I just driven like from Trader Joe's, which is like right by the studio, so.22:20I love that You're like, yeah, I made Madison yell at me to do a thing and then I didn't do it.I, I have to be real with y'all, I get the struggle of like going and leaving your house to doing the thing that you know you could do at home, but you're avoiding doing at home.22:36Just leave your house and do the thing, OK.Or like find some sort of online community that you can connect with.We talked about like the the space-time mono tasking group that I talked about in the heart chakra.Sometimes when I feel disconnected from my spiritual practice, I will literally sign up for a Co working session and I will just do yoga during the session just because I need like other beings for my ADHD to not feel alone.23:02I love that.Yeah.Next, meditation in general.Yeah, I think that if you're especially if you're someone who doesn't experience a ton of spiritual community, meditation is a really easy way to acknowledge that interconnectedness on your own.23:24You know, like bringing, bringing consciousness to to that interconnectedness and even just bringing consciousness to your crown.Like feel, I almost see the crown as like and like a literal opening in my head and it's like Whirlpool adjacent.23:47And so I can almost imagine through meditation, like where thoughts drop in and I imagine them dropping in through the crown.And that's why I think meditation is such a powerful practice for the crown specifically because I'm like, OK, this is where this, this is where it starts.24:02It comes in through here.I interpret it through my brain.It comes out my throat, it settles in my heart, you know, things like that.Yeah, yeah.And I think too, like guided meditations are really powerful for the crown.I know there's some people that would be like, because that's your crown, you need complete silence.24:21I am not a believer in that.I think guided meditations are really powerful.I also just do not fuck with silence.Yeah, yeah, I guarantee that people listening are like, yeah, me too, 'cause I know, I know the, I know the people listening right now are like doing something that they could be doing in silence, but they're like, let me just put this podcast on.24:42Yeah, you know what if this podcast exists for one thing and one thing only, and it's to be there for you while you do your dishes, you know?Yeah, yeah, it's to.Be there while you do your laundry.Silence during meditation is a scam to me.Yeah I don't like it.That is setting up for failure.25:01Yeah, my, all of my Reiki training graduates are gonna know the story I'm gonna tell.And I think I've even told it on the podcast multiple times.You definitely have.This is the story where I always say like, I'm turning into my dad because I just tell this one story over and over and over.And I will not shut the fuck up about it.25:17But I actually believe, love you.I actually believe that meditating in noise is more powerful and effective than meditating in silence.In fact, my first ever gig teaching meditation was in a rock climbing gym.25:34So imagine a cement super cold floor.There was ants.Ants.OK, this is the first time I've heard about the ants and I've heard the story 10 times.Yeah, there were ants.I just remembered the ants the other day.Yeah, I hate that for me.Ants during meditation is worse than silence.Everybody, everybody answer.25:52Would you rather a silent meditation or a meditation with ants?We we can put a pole on Spotify now.Yes.That will be the chime in on the pole.Chime in on the pole.Yeah.So ants cold floor, not a temperate room at all on one side outside the room was like techno music because people were bouldering.26:15And then above us was the stairs to the kids camp.So there was like a herd of elephants going up and down every 3 minutes.No soundproofing in the room.That's where I taught meditation for the first like three years that I taught meditation.And I remember sitting there and be like, Oh my God, this is the worst meditation class I've ever taught.26:33And I could have, I could have continued that thought pattern.But instead I said, no, we're actually going to meditate on all the noise.Because here's the thing, we've all had that experience where you're trying to focus.And Joey behoove us across the street is mowing his lawn and yeah, this car alarms going off and whatever.26:54And you're just sitting there and you're like, I can't focus.But that's exactly when you should be meditating.Because if you can calm that reaction and see that like, yeah, the, the the car alarm is just as much a part of my experience as the like, you know, 963 Hertz music could be right.27:19Like if you can see those as one in the same and you can quiet that reaction and see that interconnectedness in sound, you can start to see that interconnectedness in all things.And because how you do anything is how you do everything.If you meditate in a rock climbing gym and find yourself quieting your emotional response to the chaos and distractions that are happening in your practice, then you are preparing to do that in the rest of your.27:46Life.Retweet.Retweet.Retweet.So meditate.Yeah, I think guided practices are great.I'm going to be posting one on the crown chakra this week, which is one of my favorite interconnectedness practices, so you should check that out.We also really love the Calm app.28:02I mean, there's lots of amazing guided meditations.Out there you can find them by the dozen on YouTube.Yeah, for sure, for sure, for sure.Next on our list is one of the lowest of low effort because it's something that you can pay somebody else to do to you, which is head massage.28:19Yeah.Have you ever had a scalp massage?Oh, a hair washed at the hairdresser.A blowout.Dude I got my first blowout in three years the other day and I felt so good.It did look good.I've never had one.What I know my hair is so short, girl.28:37I mean like when I've got my hair cut, but I've never like, gone to the salon.Oh, no, no, no.I got my hair cut.Oh.OK, yeah, yeah, I thought fully that.I mean, the hairdresser has dried my hair before, but like.Yeah, that's a blowout.But to me, I guess So what I'm saying is the idea of like true luxury to me.28:53Is always going to get your hair.Washed without a salon just to have them wash and style my hair.That's my dream.But because I keep my hair so short it's not really worth it and there's like not much to do to style it.I am starting to grow it out and so I'm like, when is the appropriate length that like that can be a treat yourself moment.29:09But yes, go like literally go get your hair washed.But have you ever had like a like a scalp massage?No.But I did get a blowout before my wedding and it was not good and I had to redo my hair the morning of myself.Oh no.Yeah.So maybe check their instagrams before you get your blowout for your crown.29:26I don't know man, my crown was a little wonky back then though so.Yeah, so maybe it was your fault actually.Maybe it was my fault.Let's find a way to make it our own fault.No no no, it was definitely hers because I got a haircut from her like 3 months prior and I did not like it and I was like well I can't cancel.29:42You know what we'll do now?We'll have you do my hair for the day that we more photographed than any other day of my life.Yeah, because I don't want to hurt your feelings.That's truly what happened.That's exactly what happened.And then I was weird and I did myself.29:58You're the same person.And I hadn't had a blowout since, but I've healed that part of myself now.I did the same thing at my junior prom.That's the closest that I can think of to a wedding.But I got my makeup done and I was like, I hate this.Yeah, I'll go home and do it myself.30:16Yeah, yeah.But no, I've never had a head massage.I've had one once and I think that my mom and I were on a cruise and my mom got a massage and I was like a kid.And so she's like, guess you have to come with me and like, it's weird because you're a child to get a massage with this woman just massaged my head for like an hour.30:36It was the best day of my life.Sounds amazing.Micron was so open, I was maybe 10.Oh that sounds amazing.I always, I always want to get into those like scalp massage Y metal things, you know, why do you, why is I always have like someone gives me one of those like once a year, like it's always in my Christmas stocking or something and I'm like, why do I have why do I have all of these?31:00I it's the same though, yeah, that I feel about guasha.I really want to get into guasha because I it feels so nice.I love to do it.It just like it just is something that feels comforting and it's like they have the little Combs made out of like rose quartz and jade.31:15Then I'm like, I know that would feel so nice if I just committed to doing it and I just don't.You know, I saw Lifehack recently.This girl keeps her guacha in the shower and when she cleanses her face, she uses the cleanser for slippage.Other people are so smart.I know, so maybe try that.31:31OK, I'm on it.I've had probably like 14 guashas over the course of my life because I buy it.I never use it.I move, I say I don't need this.I give it to someone else, and then I buy a new one.Yeah.Yeah, yeah, yeah, I, yeah, I can relate.Retweet and then the next one is Reiki, which we talk about a lot, But I think Reiki is a really powerful tool for interconnectedness because if we look at the deeper layers of the practice, it I always say like everyone always talks about like the energy flowing through and yes, it flows through the crown.32:05So like you can think of like a faucet turning on above the crown.And yes, that's going to help you balance your crown in general, but deeper than that, I always call that sexy Reiki.That's like the Reiki everyone wants to know, Everyone wants to know how do I channel energy through my hands?But if we look at the deeper layers of the practice, Reiki's actually about interconnectedness.32:24It's about seeing that we are not separate from each other, that we are all connected, right?This energy is universal when it's flowing through us.And it's a way of connecting to that and, and disconnecting from the things that hold us back from that interconnection, like our worry, our anger, our ego, our, you know, stress, our anxiety, our, you know, all of those things that kind of like become the norm for us that block us from feeling connected.32:53It's about using that energy flow as a tool to come home to our self.And at our deepest core, we are a place of boundless joy, of gratitude, of love, compassion, and ultimately interconnectedness with all beings.And I think the more that you practice Reiki, at least like the true spectrum of Reiki, rather than just like, you know, learning how to flow energy through your hands, like some people will learn and they won't really get the whole deeper layers of it.33:21But the more that you practice all the different layers of Reiki, the more you start to see that interconnectedness and the crown just snaps into place because everything else snaps into place.Yeah, I think not to take it back to the pipes, but when I took your achy one, you said early on the you gave me the imagery of the faucet and now that is exactly how it like it's the same.33:47I think that's like almost it's become my own trigger for how it starts as I mentally turn the faucet, that faucet is connected to a pipe and that pipe flows through to source and it's the same like all of our, you know, I can imagine all of our pipes going to that same place and that is our connection.34:07We are all just one big house and all our pipes are probably bursting every once in a while, but.And you know what's OK?All right, so if one person's pipe bursts, then the water pressure and all the other pipes are affected?Your pain is my pain.Yeah, Oh my God.34:22We did it.We got there.Your water pressure is my water pressure.I hopped on that train finally.Right, if I flush my toilet, your temperature changes.If my hot water heater explodes, your cold, your water's cold.Yeah, yeah.34:40Love that.It was a hard weekend, guys.And then to top it off, why don't you tell me what crystals you often use to work with the crown?Chakra If I was stranded on a deserted island, say it with me now.The crystal I would bring is a.34:58Clear Quartz.Yes, yes, I love clear quartz.It's an amplifier of pretty much any intention that you set with it.But because it's an amplifier of everything, it's also so powerful for connecting with the crown, right?35:16So it's like, I see it as like the reason quartz is an amplifier, it's first of all, it's one of the most abundant minerals in the Earth.So if we just think about interconnectedness, if we're all on this planet, we're all in some way, shape or form connected to a piece of quartz, right?35:34Like, you know, your foundation of your house, I'm sure there's a piece of quartz like touching it somewhere.And so I, I always see like clear quartz for me and the Earth are synonymous.And so seeing that interconnectedness anytime I work with the earth, it's like I just, I can feel that connection with every everyone and everything.35:53So that's number one.Clear quartz selenite is also another really powerful one, specifically the satin spar selenite variety, which is the more abundant variety.It's, it's kind of like the one that most people think of.It has that white Sheen when you move it back and forth in the light.That one is a very, very, very high frequency.36:11And so whenever the frequency is higher, it's going to imagine it like lifting up.So coming up into the crown.And then apophilite is another one of my favorites.That one in particular is my favorite.If you're working with universal energy in any way shape or form, Reiki or doing like a interconnectedness meditation, holding a piece of apophilite is really powerful for that.36:32And then for herbs, we're going very floral, lavender and Violet specifically for their color and like that general like calming, peaceful energy and then rose to bring it back to that kind of like loving compassion for all.36:49Love it.Love it.And that's putting a cap on our series.Wow.Two can play your game.We did it, we did it.That was the longest series we've ever made and we are not done yet.We're
