I have avoided and avoided and avoided the shadows - both in the world and in myself. I tried so hard to cultivate a life that was focussed on the good - blooming flowers, baby animals, fresh eggs, laughter. Of course, life demands balance and shadow work is every bit as necessary as lightwork. And, as I have learned recently, we actually have very little control over whether we get to operate in the light or the shadows. The universe has a plan, our plan, and we can either flow with it or be carried away and drowned by it. This pieces is one to walk with you into the shadows. Both Malachite and Black Tourmaline are strong protectors, talismans affirming that you have what it takes to walk not only in the sunrise, but also into the sunsets...
