What is an intention?
An intention is a purpose with a motive. Something you aim to do/embody. If you intend it, then everything will be sent your way to achieve it.
If you intend to hurt someone, then you will receive hurt. If you intend to play victim, then you will create a reality where you will remain victim. If you intend to treat everyone with kindness, then you will be treated with kindness. If you intend to be your best possible self, then the best of others and life will be shown to you.
Like attracts like.
When and For What do I set an intention for?
By mindfully setting intentions for what we plan to achieve or become, our minds are able to recognize and align with what we intend.
An intention can be set before a meal >>> I intend for this food to nourish me and enjoy this meal and time together.
Before bed >>> I intend to get a great nights sleep, wake up feeling refreshed, and have awesome dreams.
Before a workout.
Before our work day.
For our yoga practice.
For our relationships.
For an event. a trip, a drive down the street.
We can set intentions for every aspect of our life. And when you are aware of what you are sending out you pay more attention to your thoughts. Because you know what you send out you get back. Our thoughts are our reality. Our intentions are our thoughts and desires in motion.
How to use intentions for jewelry
Setting an intention can be as simple as you want or you can make it into an extravagant type of ceremony. I like simplicity, so feel free to spice this up as much as you like.
First off have something in mind that you are intending to happen or become, then choose the piece of jewelry that you will want to wear for this intention. The energy of you thoughts & intentions will remain with this jewelry. So that when ever you are wearing it you will be carrying the energy of those intentions with you, allowing you to align with that which you intended.
The Steps
- Gather the piece of jewelry you are using for your intention/ intentions.
- Take a few breaths, center & ground yourself. Then clear your mind of any thoughts. Ask that any thoughts or beliefs that are no longer serving you for your highest purpose be disolved & healed.
- Ask to replenish those spaces with divine healing light.
- Now hold the piece of jewelry in between both hands at your heart level or third eye, whichever one feels more right. I switch it up.
- Ask that the object be cleared of any past energies that may interfere with your intentions. You can also do this by running the jewelry through smoke and intending the jewelry or stone to be cleansed.
- Think of the intention you would like to set. Feel it, visualize it, experience it like it is actually happening.
- Now imagine that intention or those thoughts being wrapped in light in your mind. And send that light from your mind down to your heart. Then send it down your arms into your hands and into the object. Feel it being connected from your third eye, heart, and object.
- Acknowledge that the jewelry now carries the energies of your intention and by wearing it or holding it you will carry those energies with you in your own energy field attracting and aligning with the new intention.
- Say thank you and be done 🙂
some things to remember
Sometimes other things need to happen before we can align with what we desire.
Sometimes we need yucky things and emotions to be brought up so that we can work through them and heal. That doesn’t mean that our intention setting isn’t working. Most of the time the energies are bringing up things for us that we need to deal with in order for that intention to become real. The different energies of the stones sometimes bring up past issues and beliefs in order for us to look at them and question why we have functioned this way all our lives.
The dark is just as much a part of it as is the light.
They are not opposites but two parts of one whole. You can not have one with out the other.
