Published on by wickedstonesLeave a comment

Well this is very exciting!! This afternoon I spent a few hours with a few people from the Talent North magazine here in Sudbury!  I had an awesome time and am going to be included in their upcoming magazine in the next few months!! I’m excited and nervous all at the same time 🙂 Here’s a little bit about their magazine…

At Talent North, we are focused on providing  the local talent in Northern Ontario with a way of sharing and promoting their special and unique talent that would otherwise not get noticed.
We are committed to engulfing our readers with short colourful stories. Talent North is proud to represent the extraordinary talents that are widely diversified that have gone virtually unnoticed. We are proud to be part of Northern Ontario and all of its beauty, that we get to witness daily.   I’m super delighted to have been invited to be a part of one of their publications! I can’t wait to see it when it comes out… Wicked Stones

Decades later, and we are still here working with Healing crystals and gems!

Goddess Pele Pendant – The Goddess of Fire, Volcanoes and Magic

A blast from the past from 2015!!

A lot of new things have been going on here at Wicked Stones. We’re changing around some things on our website and growing larger and larger! What a journey it has been! Over 15 years at this point creating and sharing our healing crystal jewelry. We’re so happy to be bringing you some of our Fire Energy as we transition to our new home and make space for bigger and better things!

So I’m going to start off our new site by introducing you to a lovely gemstone pendant made of Lava.

Hawaiian myth says that Lava is actually the tears of Pele (the Goddess of Fire, Volcanoes and Magic.). It is a gem of great strength to help you to dissipate feelings of frustration and anger.  It is a good grounding gem to keep your feet on the ground and can help you when the world is going around you and you need to feel centered.   It’s a gem of quick swift changes and also helps to protect you from nasty grams that people around you are sending out (negative vibes and energy).

This is also a Root Chakra gemstone that helps you to feel rooted and planted on Mother Earth.

It just seemed appropriate to share something with fire energy for change during this time of transition here in our shop.

Cheers everyone!

A blast from the way back past from Wicked Stones Blog from 2014!!!

I thought I’d start sharing some of the pieces up on our website (Wicked Stones) from time to time so you can get an idea of what we do…

Today, I’m sharing an incredible piece of Lapis Lazuli.  Photos just can’t do this stone justice as it has so much colour – from rich blues to shimmering golden pyrites, it packs a punch when it comes to the beauty department. (This is way back when… I’m just going over my blogs and it’s 2026 and wowsers! Did we ever improve our photography skills since then!)

Here’s  bit of info on Lapis:

Lapis is a stone

  • intuition
  • balance
  • uplifting spirits
  • combating depression

Lapis is a good focus for meditation and increasing clairvoyant abilities.  This stone helps us to contact our spirit guardians and reverse curses.

Wearing it around the home can help bring a feeling of contentment and family loyalty.  It also helps to bring harmony to the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual levels of our selves and restore any unbalances that can result in depression and lack of purpose.   Once these areas are balanced Lapis helps to bring keep inner self knowledge to light.
