Have you made a camp blanket or poncho? I finally decided to make myself one! I was not sure if I wanted a blanket or poncho style. I only knew that I wanted it to last a lifetime. I had a small collection of badges and patches from my youth in Guiding, and those that I started to collect as my time as a leader in Guiding and Scouting. I can look at each crest or badge, even those from when I was a girl and remember when and where I was when I received it. At one of our camps last Spring, girls

There are several reasons why caring about finger meaning and symbolism can boost your journey with crystals. Wearing rings is not just about style. It sends messages to: • other people, according to cultural belief, tradition, and story; • your unconscious mind. and +plus, it's a powerful tool you can use to boost your vibes and stay focused on your goals and purposes. First, think about this extraordinary tool you have: your hands. Hands are your primary instruments to turn your visions, ideas, and projects into something tangible. You also use your hands to explore, experience every surface and shape, make someone closer, connect your core to the Universe during meditation ...and the list goes on and on. Humans know how their hands have been precious in their lives during the course of history. A QUICK NOTE BEFORE WE DIVE INTO THE FASCINATING WORLD OF FINGER MEANING AND SYMBOLISM: The purpose of this article is to encourage everyone to live a more meaningful and intentional life, awakening the spiritual and physical that everyone has within. The techniques, knowledge, and practices in this article should be combined with a grateful lifestyle and intentional and conscious living to create a positive and effective result. Hands have a crucial role in material and spiritual life. Because of that, I want you to be more grateful for everything your hands do for you at many levels on a daily basis. Now that you're more conscious of the role of your hands try to think about what happens if you give them more power intentionally. What do I mean by "intentionally"? I mean consciously and meaningfully. Based on the different meanings and roles of hands and fingers, you can wear rings intentionally to stay more focused on your goals and gain the spiritual skills you want and need. Here's how: Right and Left hands: different roles RIGHT HAND • With the right hand, you give energy to the outside world. • Right is the hand of physical action • The Right hand is the masculine essence (yang side) WORK ON THE RIGHT HAND TO: • share specific qualities of the Universe • wear your ring on the right if you feel that you already have the quality and purpose you want to share and manifest to the world. Everything you need is to make them actionable. LEFT HAND • With the left hand, you receive energy. • The Left is the hand of creativity and process • Left is the thinking hand • Left is the feminine essence (yin side) WORK ON THE LEFT HAND TO: • get or elaborate on specific qualities or skills • have the perfect mindset to generate specific skills. What if I'm left-handed? If you use your left hand to deliver your feelings, ideas, and thoughts, that's the giving hand for you. Then, the right hand is the hand of getting. Looking how different cultures emphasizes giving or receiving aspect is very interesting, I would love to go deeper in to that in one of the future articles ;) Ring Meaning & Symbolism finger by finger INDEX • Embodies Jupiter, the supreme God of the Romans. • Wearing rings on this finger focuses you on self-confidence, action, ambition, communication, and leadership. • Crystals that boost index qualities are Blue Topaz, Amethyst, Lapis Lazuli, Emerald, Peridot. • Natural Element: Water >> Wanna know how to grow your Leadership skills by wearing rings?
