Greetings and a Happy New Year everyone!
I am sitting at the airport in Sydney, Australia and actually in the future, so to speak, since via all time calculations, it's a day earlier here. I did get the opportunity to visit three rock shops and a Starbucks while in New Zealand. Nephrite, a more common
 form of jade, is New Zealand's green stone of popularity and abundance. Such a delight to share stories of Tucson trips and energy parallels between both countries with other shop owners. Robert Simmons IS committed to
 coming to Nature's Treasures in 2021 for a special seminar encompassing all the new knowledge he has composed in his newly released book..."The Alchemy of Stones: Co-Creating with the Soul of the World" so watch for updates and more detail in future newsletters.
In the nearer future, we will be headed to Tucson for our annual buying trip the last of this month. Yes, it's that time again so start working on those manifestations so all your goodies can be ready for us to find when we get there. We will be shopping for 3+ weeks and can't wait to share our finds with you during our 14th Annual Tucson Trunk Sale that will start this year on March 14th and run thru the 22nd. Mark your calendars now!
 I'm trying to decide what New Year's resolutions I achieved last year and how many I should probably continue to work on in 2020. Before tackling my goals for 2020, let me first thank all of you for wonderful 2019 at Nature's Treasures. We hope everyone enjoys their presents from mother nature and know they will
 enhance all aspects of your life in ways you have yet to experience. I also wanted to share some of our Christmas Party pictures with you. As I looked around the room during our gift exchange, I was surprised at the size our little family has grown into and again thank everyone for your support and ideas that help make us continue to grow every year.
Speaking of new beginnings, 2020 is the year of the Rat in Chinese calendars and actually the first of the 12 years cycle of animals that are observed. Talk about a new beginning time! The rat is a symbol of wealth, abundance and fertility so maybe keep this in mind when selecting your 2020 goals. What great energy to work with, new beginnings with an abundance period ahead sounds like an awesome energy basis to build on.
While waiting for my plane and the 18 hour flight ahead, I'm reflecting on all my adventures these past two weeks and the vast amount of similarities between New Zealand and our Northwest region in the US, including Alaska. Unfortunately that includes the horrible drought conditions and now the massive fires, very similar to what we just experienced in California. They've got months ahead with no rain in sight and the fires keep burning. Australia, and all those cute little Koala bears could sure use all the prayers and blessings we can send their way. Spread the love.
Blessings

The Treasure Tome: A Trove of Knowledge
Labradorite: The Magician Stone
By Michael J. Kallstrom
"Magic, do as you will!"
Schmendrick the Magician,The Last Unicorn (film version)
Labradorite was named after Labrador, Canada, where it was originally discovered. From this northern region, the Inuit people have passed down a story shared by a native Canadian in 2011 on thisnortherngirl.wordpress.com. As the story goes, the Aurora Borealis became trapped in a dark stone. An Inuit warrior came across the lights and freed them by smashing the stones with his spear. However, he could not free all of the lights, so some remained in the stones to become what we know today as Labradorite. In some native cultures of Canada, the northern lights are believed to be ancestral spirits watching over us, and in this way Labradorite carries their wisdom. Although I could not find a primary source of this legend, it could easily be an etymological story explaining the origin of Labradorite considering the comparable flashes of color within the stone to those found in the night sky.

 Garnet
The name Garnet comes from the Phoenician punica geranatum meaning pomegranate by way of the Latin granatum or granitus. Although Garnet is best known for its glowing red hue, this mineral can actually occur in a variety of colors. With a hardness of around 7 and its lack of cleavage planes, Garnet is considered one of the more durable gemstones.
Despite its rich colors and durability, this stone was not only prized as an ornamental jewel, but also for the many empowering attributes associated with it by the ancients. The red stone was associated by ancient Romans with Mars, the god of war, and believed to bestow strength and power upon the wearer. In modern times, new varieties of Garnet have been discovered based on chemical structure.
