The Great Orisha Oya

It was such an honor to get to collaborate on this project with Akanni, LaToya, and one of my dearest friends Trina on this project. Oya is one of the most powerful Orishas; of thunder, lightning and storms. She oversees female leadership, transformation and is the “Queen of the Marketplace.” A patroness of female business owners. She is the Queen of the River Niger and can help you unearth family secrets that were lost with those who have passed on. Oya has always brought a sense of power and strength when I have thought of her in my own mind. The fact that she combines power and ancestry together is so beautiful and empowering. For this project, I sat back and let these three ladies advise, design and conjure. So much was put into this objective and I credit the contributors as being the superstars of this project. It was also very important to me that a Yoruba Priestess, Akanni, have all the final say before completion. I am beyond taken aback at how beautiful this pendant turned out and have shed tears over the undertaking of it all. The net proceeds will go to an organization called Solar Sister, a beautiful establishment in Africa that helps train women entrepreneurs with clean energy businesses. They literally put the power in the hands of women. It is such a beautiful metaphor, Oya reflected. Please consider donating directly if you can. 

Oya’s image is drawn after the likeness of one of my dearest friends Trina Thompson. We go way back to working for corporate jewelry stores together. I wanted to remind her, no matter her struggles, to see herself in the divine. Rise like the storm my dear friend and flash your light for all of the worlds to see.

The Goddess Circe

Have you ever been underestimated, harshly judged, or completely disregarded? This is the story of Circe. Cast aside at birth as nothing special, thought to only have the power of immortality granted by her parentage, but nothing more. Her voice was thin and her eyes were yellow, so she was given the name Circe, meaning Hawk in Greek. Not as a badge of beauty, but mockery. Made to feel powerless and small, the outcast of her family and an outsider of her kind. No one understood what she was capable of, not even herself. Her becoming soon was realized. In her exile, she grew into her powers and her true nature, discovering that she could ‘know’ the secret spells of plants and herbs. The first to ever hone this power and speak the language of plant life. The green of the Earth knew her and she knew it. The first Hedgewitch, plant magician, and first to hear the voices of plants, i.e. plant speak. As her power grew, her confidence blossomed. Rising like a phoenix from the ash, the elder gods stopped in her tracks, realizing she was overlooked. She is a testament to the fact that no one decides your destiny but you. Underestimated, misjudged, or overlooked… other people do not write your story. Only you can do that. Your becoming awaits.

The Great Goddess of the North, Freyja

I am more than honored to put a spotlight on the great goddess of the north, Freyja. There are many reasons for this that I do not have space for in this caption, but there will be a post about it on Patreon for anyone that would like to read further into this deep dive. I have also signed on to construct a devotional and timeline account of this Goddess with seven other amazing women. More on that will come in the next year. For now, this little write-up will do. As one of my own personal patronesses, I am honored to be able to do so and grateful to anyone who reads this little insert. 

My first encounter with Freyja was in 1992, the nineties were an interesting time for us humans and this planet in general. There was a recognization in my chart that was quite lamentable. It shadowed my entire life span in this incarnation. That kind of sign is never just inked in yellow. It reverberates. It was of great worry. So it was changed. Freyja is the only known Goddess that has the energy line to open a change of path. Fate and circumstances can be changed before the path is stepped upon. You just have to be willing to pay for both karmatic lessons in one rite, but when the lesson is learned, there is no need to reread the book. You can change your path, do not let anyone tell you otherwise. 

Freyja is a shining example of a woman destroyed upon but continuing the fight. The warrior, the shapeshifter who can shift to new situations and survive this world. Rising above and soaring over the ever truths. She possesses the energy lines to break family curses, family cycles, and mend family breakdowns. A reconciliation with ancestry ties and seeing the lessons learned by a family’s past. Love and hate, peace and war; they are different degrees of the same things. The line is thin, and the scale slides in different directions. She processes these things in her hands. This same silhouette casts itself on every aspect of her. She is the Goddess of both pans on every scale and will meet you at every end of every beginning. 

She is a goddess of so many layers and so many energies, so I am touching on just one area of her greatness. She is glory; she is gold. The changer of paths.

The Goddess Inanna

Inanna, Queen of Heaven, is the oldest known Goddess in recorded history. She is the morning star and the evening star. The depiction of Venus, the second planet that orbits the sun, the first of the morning and the first of the night. Also known as the Star of Venus. Inanna was a meek youth that grew in power and became so glorious, she can be seen directly with the sun. 

In my elementary grade youth, I remember hearing her mythology and envisioning it vividly in my childlike mind. The story of her scaling a mountain with her Lapis Lazuli poles, the repetitive part in the story of her running up a mountain, her feet flinging rocks behind her. Flinging them everywhere without a care. Nothing ever stopped her. Muscle bound heroes to elder gods may have found themselves in jealously of her power, but never dared to judge her. Inanna was venerated for who she was. Her actual self so celebrated. In a world where a person, and most definitely women, are judged for breathing… Inanna was all of it. She said whatever she wanted, whatever was on her mind pertaining to the self and the world about her. Speaking crud truths that women weren’t supposed to speak about, just smile and say nothing, but not Inanna. She was strong and could best a challenge with the flick of her wrist. She did not apologize for not being “ladylike” and ruled the way she wanted. She didn’t care what anyone thought about her and lived her way. 

Remember, although the world has an opinion about you and will try to hold you to standards, preconceived notions, or even past mistakes… you are growing, learning, and becoming. May you scale those mountains like Inanna. May you be celebrated for who you are.

The Goddess Amaterasu

This is the Great Goddess Amaterasu. First I would like to say, that she was co-designed by and her likeness is that of my friend Tracy Emiko Ugai. I also had help in way of advice and historical contributions by not only Tracy but my friends Hina and Sora Nagao and Karen Ono in the making of this goddess. 

I was a little taken aback by how many of my friends did not know about Amaterasu. A solar deity of Japan and the major deity of Shinto. My favorite myth about Amaterasu involves her hiding in a cave. Amaterasu’s younger brother Susanoo, a storm god, was very cruel to every living thing he touched. He was always playing mischievous tricks on her. This hurt her feelings, the treatment became too much, so she hid in a cave to get away from the cruel treatment. Sealing herself away from the world. When she exiled herself, the light of the world was gone. Dark spirits ran amuck and plant life shrunk without her beautiful light. Eventually, the other gods devised a plan to lure her out of the cave. They held up a mirror revealing her own beauty! The plan worked and she emerged. Her light was like no other beauty of this world. 
What it comes down to is, people will treat you badly and overlook you, but hiding your light from the world doesn’t help anyone, including yourself. The world needs you. It is true, you may need to hide for a minute to gather yourself and heal, but do not stay hidden forever. You must be seen, you are light, you are amazing! 

*Please read about this full story and others about Amaterasu. The whole event of this account it is such a beautiful story. Do not forget, your light is needed and no one should have the power to make you go dormant. Let your light shine!

The Goddess Collection

Jewelry consisting of faces on coins have graced bodies since antiquity. Usually a deity or a person of significance and beauty, coin jewelry is nothing new under the sun, transcending time and space. There are many varieties of coin jewelry, but my favorites are the coins with goddesses. When I was a tiny child, my Grandmother had a long bronze necklace that hung to the bottom of her ribcage. It was a coin with a Goddess holding wheat on the face. The back had two symbols, one on top of the other. The top was a Labrys, and the bottom was a bull. I loved it so much, and I own it to this day. Nothing is more beautiful to me than goddess culture. I wanted to design coins with goddesses that aren’t typically found on coins, but most of all, I wanted to honor the tradition of coin jewelry. 

The collection is traditional by way of the coin shape, but there is so much more that is not traditional but should be among us as humans. This collection represents true crystal to goddess lore that is usually incorrect via an internet search. Moreso, red-lettered, this project is a representation of people from around the world and a collaboration that is of the same. Each piece was designed in a friend’s likeness or in collaboration with a guest designer, who is also a friend. Each goddess had several people behind it and much-needed representation. This was an effort of many, a coming together of many. 

Each goddess has one or more stones that truly pertain to her, featured on each coin. I have often seen incorrect crystals paired with their Deities in the same landscape as their animal counterparts. I believe it must be culturally correct. Additionally, I wanted the goddesses to have designers that were living cultural representations of the goddess. In this truth, many people would have real input to real concerns pertaining to the culture displayed. So each goddess had a team, and in each team, the majority were people of the culture represented. Furthermore, charities have been chosen, by team members, to benefit from these goddesses. 

As with all EPJ pieces, these will only be available for a very short time in a limited edition. When they are gone, they are gone. As I have always said, beauty comes from what is sought, not soaked. If you have one of these beauties, you will have one of the few in the world. Please see a description of each goddess and the people behind them, helping me hold them up.

Freyja/Freya Scandinavian Goddess

Freyja, originally of the Vanir, was given to the Aesir tribe as a peace treaty during the war. Her father Njörd the sea god and her twin brother Freyr, were also a part of the bargain. Together they brought many gifts to the Aesir, one of Freyja’s many gifts was the power of seiðr, the Old Ways of the World. She possesses a cloak made of falcon feathers, enabling her to fly leading the Valkyries on the battlefield. The Boar, the Cat, and the Falcon are her familiars. Her true crystal is yellow Cat’s Eye, displayed on the pendant, sourced from Scandinavia. Her likeness was designed after my friend Mia Wäppling-Johannessen.

Circe Greek Goddess

Circe, the witch of Aeaea and daughter of Helios, became a most beloved Goddess for her truest nature. Yes, she was able to change men into wolves, lions, and swine, but this is truly a footnote. At her birth, she was quickly disregarded, branded as odd-looking, and cast aside. She was underestimated and belittled. No one really understood her inner power. She rose up like a phoenix and the gods in the grand hall stopped in their tracks. She is a testament to the fact that no one decides your destiny but you. The Hawk and the Lion are her familiars. Her true crystal is Tiger’s Eye. Her likeness was designed after my best friend Rachel Lewandowski. Circe’s depiction has been advised and planned by the project contributors.

The Morrígan Celtic Goddess

The Morrígan, also known as the Phantom Queen of Irish lore and the Goddess of the dead. She is a quite complex Goddess to know. She requires study and dedication to truly understand. Internet searches do not even grasp a 10th of who she is. The Morrígan is the very cycle of life, the energy of this cycle manifested into this reality’s edges. She is the keeper eternal of all that breathes and all that dies. She is the center of the triple spiral flowing outward. Murders of crows fly by her side, and she is a gifted shapeshifter indeed. Her true crystals are garnet, onyx, quartz, and bloodstone. Her likeness was designed after my friend Sher DeMar. The Morrígan’s depiction has been advised and planned by the project contributors.

Guan Yin Chinese Bodhisattva

Guan Yin is the Bodhisattva of Mercy, Peace, wisdom, and Luck. She is associated with compassion and known as “The Goddess of Mercy.” Bodhisattvas are enlightened beings who have decided to hold off transcending in order to help others attain enlightenment. There are many different Bodhisattvas, but Guan Yin is the most famous in China. Her true crystal is the Chinese Jade, displayed on her chest, mined in China. Her image was a design by the contributors to this project. Both were inspired by the Guan Yin Bodhisattva Statue of the South China Sea in Sanya, Hainan. Their design takes my breath away. Net proceeds from this project will be donated to CUSWF.

Nerthus Vanir Scandinavian Goddess/God

Many veiled Goddess appears in many cultures because ultimately she is one. Symbolizing the mysteries of life, the great mysteries. Nerthus is a veiled primordial goddexx, an original goddexx of old that was before the newer gods of antiquity. As an elder goddexx, of the Earth, keeping the secrets of the world. Originally a sexless deity, able to be the seed and carry life by the self. Similar to the plant life of this Earth in relation to the Earth’s soil. Sometimes said to be Njörd, the male god of the sea or his wife, Nerthus was also documented as both genders (a hermaphroditic deity) until the Christianization of Scandinavia. Whether the goddexx was hermaphroditic, changed over time by religion, or Nonbinary; it is clear that the primordial energies are older than gender roles. The animal consorts of Nerthus are the red fox and the wood frog. The true crystal of Nerthus is blue lace agate. Now considered in many circles a Nonbinary Goddexx and the keeper of the secrets of Earth and our true origins. The depiction of Nerthus and description here has been advised and planned by the project contributors. Net proceeds from this project will be donated to Transformations KC.

The Hex Breaker Amulet

I am so happy to release the last edition of the Hex Breaker Amulet today. I am overwhelmed with gratitude over the constant flow of kind messages I have been lucky enough to receive concerning this necklace. Many have asked about the construction of the symbolic language portrayed on the face of the amulet. First I want to discuss the actual word Amulet and the word Talisman. These two words are often misused in jewelry. Especially with the latest crystal craze that has flooded the internet. I personally love that the world is opening to new things. Trends open minds, shrink fears, they even tear down walls. There is a little backlash with that and abuse does come in doses. We have to destroy to create and we must always take into account that pain comes with growth. If it means the world is becoming more open-minded, I will take it. The misinformation must be rectified, “all paradoxes may be reconciled.”

The making of a Talisman and the making of an Amulet, both, are more than a person just saying they are, then they become so. It takes more than a crystal and more than symbols depicted on the piece to make it so. Like the letters of any alphabet, symbols change when they are put together. They change when they are made under specific planetary or lunar conditions. They change with each metal or crystal used. Not a science, just a language, a symbolic language. 

So before there is any understanding of the symbols used, there must be an understanding of the canvas they are displayed upon. The following description is an excerpt from my upcoming book discussing the Hex Breaker and the making of Amulet or Talisman pieces. 

“A talisman is made with all energy of the crystals, metals, numerology of the measurements, and lunar, solar, or planetary times of construction in mind. Not just any piece can be called a Talisman or an Amulet. Adding these descriptions to an item when no action has been taken to earn such a name, is unfair to the buyer, and false advertisement. A piece cannot be called a Taliman or an Amulet only because it contains a crystal or a magic symbol. It must be made as a talisman or an amulet. Yes, there is a difference, but it does seem that these words are interchangeable in today’s world. 

A talisman magnifies the power of sources it is made with, e.g: the materials it is made with, how it is made, the energy present when it was made, the energy of the maker, and the wearer to bring a specific desire into manifestation. A talisman is an amplifier, manifestor, magnifier. In turn, it can also be made to give protection and defense, but the protection is dependant on each other the ingredients above. It demands a specific Consecration Ceremony to actually be a Talisman.

An amulet is for protection and defense against evil specifically. Made to keep you safe and to ward off attacks against you. These pieces do not specifically empower you, they solely protect you. 

Both must be made specifically for these purposes. Just making something and declaring it either will not suffice. I believe this is definitely a problem in this new world of meaningless phrases and quick-paced fashions, but know that if it is claiming to be a Talisman or an Amulet, it may not be either. 

These pieces must be made in such a way that they harness the energy to produce their purpose. Something made that just looks neat or magical doesn’t really have a purpose besides aesthetics. Calling it a Talisman or an Amulet is not respectful to the nature of what the piece could be. It is not responsible to label in such a way to lure the buyer to what they may be seeking.

A true Talisman or Amulet by name is constructed from measurement and making sure the corresponding numerology combines properly with said measurements of the piece. The maker must be aware to only add “times to work” on the said piece under specific moon phases and planet alignments. Including metal metaphysical meshing with stone metaphysics and making sure the stones themselves properly combine metaphysically to other stones involved in the talisman or amulet, if there are more than one involved. It is not just something you can slap together or design in a day. Each design period takes each person different amounts of time. My own method usually takes three months designing. Sometimes it can take longer because I personally wait to design under certain energy influences. Each maker takes different time measurements depending on when they can get to specific alignments and phases. My personal time measurement for a small batch is one solar year. I have taken up to five years in the past with a few items and with one specific batch taking eight years. Remember when you see wax being cut in my storyline, it took months to get there and the piece will not release for at least a year after that point. Some moon phases and planet alignments I refuse to work under so sometimes it can take longer. This is why I make items first then list them. So there is not wait time. This also accounts for why my custom pieces take a very long time. Talisman and Amulet making is not a quick thing.” 

The mapping of a magical object with magical symbolism is another bowl of wax in itself. There are vast areas in the subject of crystals and metals that seem to have been dismissed altogether. Just like knowing which crystals should and should not be combined or understanding which metals should be used for which stones; it is important to understand symbols in more than a fundamental way. I would suggest a true study that consists of more than a beginner’s class and an understanding of metaphysical properties in its chemical compound complexity. As opposed to all of these wild descriptions found on the internet, e.g. “Amethyst is good for… (add whatever)” The truth is, specific stones can change properties when a person’s planetary birthright is opposite to the whoever wrote, “Amethyst is good for…” There are certain people that are not affected energetically by Amethyst at all. So why give everyone the same understanding of this stone? Amethyst is a level one crystal so its changes are not as vast as a level five crystals, but the changes exist. It is similar to the Sun Sign Horoscope trend of the western world. It really is an unfitted flat sheet when you need a quilt. The same goes for symbolism. In order to balance and connect a universal Amulet, the symbolism must combine properly. In the English language, the letter A by itself can be a word. The letter I by itself can be a word. Adding them together does not make a word. I see a lot of things online that just do not make sense, and I am among many that are scratching their heads. We have to be smart, accurate, and precise. A google search will not teach you what you need to know. Study your subject, read books, find teachers. Answers are never easy but it is always worth it in the end. Remember if you are buying an item labeled as a “talisman” or an “amulet” it would be good to find out if it truly is if you need this item to be for empowerment or protection. If you just like the piece aesthetically then, of course, I say take it home. I believe we are drawn to things for a reason.

Descent Into Light

I constantly hear from my fellow age group that they tire of watching things that were once theirs in youth become trendy. I have heard a lot of this same thing about what has been called “The Witch Wave” or “The Season of the Witch”… Obviously lasting more than a season, but the tide has indeed turned. I honestly think more good things come from it than bad. Sometimes it can be extremely upsetting watching what you love become watered down but remember, the right people are now able to find it. These right people will find it in larger numbers and add more season to the soup. 

Yesterday a kind human messaged me and told me she wanted to thank me for reminding her that she is a work in progress that only gets better. I realize I have said this like anyone in this world that has said it, but I also reminded her to dig deeper into what I was really saying. She then replied to me with a question, “We are always in progress right?” Of course we are, but what isn’t really understood is that our continuation is descent. This is why we get better and better. That moment when we are done physically growing in our bodies, we start to descend into darkness. As the flesh begins to fall away, the godhead emerges. I am so happy that “shadow work” has made a popular rise in social media sharing. When I started EPJ, the first item that made an appearance on the EPJ website, was that of the cameo skull. In the description, I made it clear that the only way she warded off evil, was to reflect what was inside of herself. Sure, many understood it, but many more did not. You wouldn’t believe the backlash I got from that. In 2008 an article came out about EPJ that dubbed the jewelry line as, “Something for people with dark practices.” Complete with “satan” in the hashtags. There was a time that everything was this or that. No faceted humanity or option of seeing things from different views. No great work of the inner self. Back then, when I told anyone that their power came from the journeys of the darkest parts of their nature, I would get chastised. Yesterday, I told a girl that her progress comes from her descent, and she got it. No insta-anger, no “Well that’s nice but I am a lightworker” … She got it. It clicked. More and more of this world is arriving at understanding and healing. When you feel tired of things becoming trendy, remember, they have to in order to spread the nature of their understanding. Trends have the power to change mindsets, old ways of thinking, etc. When I started this journey, over 25 years ago, people constantly said I was, “edgy”… “scary” … A lady once came up to an EPJ table and asked me and my best friend Tamra if we “were of the dark arts” … 

Now, people see past that. People see what I am saying and understand it. These things are good. As we propel ourselves to the light, we must understand the darkness. The only understanding of the light is having understood the dark. All of this world is faceted. All of this life has many shades of light and dark in varying degrees. As we descend into each phase, know the only way is through. The Moon knows this well and she is a nightly reminder. These phases are a segway, movement is life.

You are the One; A journey on seeing through the false light, false messages, and false narrative in order to self empower and grow past the weeds to come into bloom.

I wrote a series of self-empowerment a few months ago and I am finally getting to make these posts live. A few of these will be on Patreon and the website blog, but then the second section will be on Patreon only. I want to red-letter not only the significance of your own personal power, but I want to remind you that there are going to be a lot of people that will try and take that personal power. I am also going to post a few ways that can remind you about how amazing you are. You don’t have to be “fancy” or “popular” and you don’t have to be perfect. You already have the tools within yourself to make your goals happen. Do not listen to anyone that has anything negative to say about your goals or your dreams. As time goes on, you will see the forest for the trees. More and more. I want you to really listen to yourself. I want you to see the watered-down magic and know-how to pull the ingredients from it, making it potent again. You don’t need anything but yourself. You can do anything you put your mind to! Yes, these posts will be cheesy. Yes, they will be full of “You can do it” style and grace. But in a world like what we are experiencing, maybe that is just what we need more of?
