This month's birthstone is Peridot, a pretty gemstone that comes in fresh lime green, olive or bottle green and can look anything from subtle to dramatic. Although I prefer it with silver it looks great with gold too! Enjoy :)

Der Peridot ist der Geburtsstein für diesen Monat und erinnert mit seinen frischen Grüntönen an eine Sommerwiese. Die Töne reichen von leuchtend Limettengrün bis gedecktem Flaschengrün. Ich wünsche euch allen einen guten Start in die neue Woche!

Some of my regular readers may have noticed that I haven't been blogging much lately. I had so many fun projects planned for this year, but unfortunately my persisting health issues have thwarted them all. I felt nauseous and dizzy on my birthday last week, so unfortunately I had to cancel dinner. Of course, in the face of what's happening around the world my problems seem somewhat insignificant, although I do believe the current collective negativity is having a detrimental effect on my recovery, because I am so susceptible to lower energies! I have been diligently cleansing my chakras and have delved deeper into healing with crystal energy (more on that in a future post!) and I try to eat as nutritiously as possible to counteract the negative side effects of the meds. Please bear with me - hopefully I will be back to my regular blogging routine soon. After all my blog is my happy place. I love blogging :)
