My Crystal Skulls

 

Ostrid and Meti
My two Beautiful Crystal Skulls



Ostrid
Ostrid is the 1st of my two crystal skulls, He is 0.7 inches in size; a tiny one. He is made from the lovely crystal Boswana Agate.

Boswana Agate Crystal

Boswana agate is pale white or cream with Clean brown banding running rite through it, in my opinion one of the most attractive forms of agate.
The agate is one of the oldest stones in recorded history, it has been used in jewelry since Biblical Babylonian times. 

It has many Uses:
~ Protection
~ Attraction of Strength
~ Protection from bad dreams
~ Guards against stress and energy drains
~ Helps change the level of acceptance regarding emotions
~ Aids stomach upsets
~ Helps to clarify things when an important decision is to be made

Places that source Agate: Germany, Uruguay, Brazil, United States, Mexico, Madagascar, Italy, Egypt, India, China and Scotland.

Why Ostrid
I had been searching for a crystal skull for some years however i never had any jump out at me so i never ended up getting one.
I then discovered Skullis a professional company that specialised in creating crystal skulls; in my opinion they create the best ones!

I began looking through Skullis' web pages with the intention of purchasing an amethyst crystal skull; if i found one that i liked. However as i was scrolling through the mass pages of skulls i came across a picture of this tiny boswana agate one; it literally jumped out of the page at me;  as i was searching for an amethyst i carried on looking through the pages and ignored this stunning little thing.
Over the next couple of days all i could think about was this little boswana skull and i kept going back to the web page and just looking at it.
By this point i was referring to it as a "him" however at that time i didn't know why, i knew that crystal skulls were suppose to have a soul or energy within it however i wasn't aware of how real this was.

All i could think about was this tiny little skull, i even had dreams about me holding him. So i decided to follow the signs i was being given and decided i simply must have him.. so i clicked on the like to purchase him and it took me to e-bay, he had various bids on him so i didn't think i would get him in a million years, still it was worth a try and i was adamant now that i would have him, he was meant to be with me.
The night that the bidding was due to end i remained up insuring that my bid was always the highest, i waited up until gone 4 in the morning just to insure that he would be mine. Then the bidding ended and i was praying that no one had outbid me in the last second.. At that moment a notice appeared it was telling me i was the winning bidder, i literally lept from my sofa and had a little jig. Now all i would have to do is wait for him to arrive.

I looked to see how long it would take for me to receive him and it said 7-14 days, so i waited and then when the 7th day came i began waiting on the postman; all i could think about was his arrival. Every day i would run to the door when the postman arrived but nothing, i simply couldn't wait any longer. Then on the 12th day of waiting there was a knock at the door, it was the postman and he had a little parcel with him; could this be my boswana skull.
I opened the package with great care and indeed it was my skull i was sooo excited to finally have him in my hands, i could literally feel the vibrations coming from him and into my hand it was surreal. Then as i was sat there i heard a voice, it was a very masculine voice but extremely quiet; all it said was one word, i couldn't quite make it out.
I am very used to hearing strange voices so i was not scared, but more intrigued. 

The skull had arrived on a full moon so i decided that i would cleanse and charge the skull before i interacted with him, i kept him informed as to what i was doing. The next day i picked up the skull and rite away i head a shouting voice say "OSTRID" .. i just knew that this was the skulls name.. So from that moment i called him Ostrid.

I tried to find his name but was unable, it was then he told me that is was the masculine version of Astrid and outdated it also.. He informed me that his name was an ancient Nubian name and that he lived in the year 3850 BC, Nubia was a place that could be found running along side the river Nile not far from Egypt.
The Name meaning is that of Fair and Beautiful; He told me that his name Incorporated a message to me also, this i found quite lovely.

After more communication with Ostrid he informed me that we had known each other in a past life and that he has been waiting a very long time to be with me. He now helps to guide me and alerts me of dangers.. He is very knowledgeable and tells me such things that are both fascinating and wonderful. 

METI
Meti is the 2nd of my two skulls, he is 1.6 inches in size and is lovely to hold as he fits perfectly in the hand. He is made From Lapis Lazuli.

Lapis Lazuli Crystal (very powerful and used only with care)

Lapis Lazuli is dark blue and white in colour with gold specks running through it. Such a beautiful combination of colour.
The very earliest cultures valued lapis lazuli more highly than gold; this crystal was used allot by the Ancient Egyptians; a symbol of truth to them, they even berried it with there dead to offer them protection in the form of a scarab beetle.

Its Uses are:
~ Bring matters more clearly to the mind when used in meditation
~ Can help you become a channel
~ Cleansing of certain body parts (used by healer only)
~ Opens many of the chakra centres

Places that source Lapis Lazuli: Chile, the Soviet Union, the United States and mountains of Afghanistan.

Why Meti

I decided it was time to find a friend for Ostrid rather than having him lonely on the shelf when i wasn't using him, i remembered the shop skullis and how fabulous there skulls were so decided to take a look on there shop once again, this time with no particular crystal in mind just the hope of having one jump out at me, there was a lot of beautiful skulls however i didn't particularly feel that i was drawn to any, so i left the on line store and felt pretty gutted.

I looked on the on line shop various times over the next few weeks but there was still nothing; so i decided to email them to see if they had anything new that they could show me. In the reply i had there was several images of crystals that they had coming up i immediately noticed the lapis and fell in love with his colouring and shape; he was remarkable. I felt a pull towards him and decided that it was a sign and i let skulls know i was interested in him. They let me know the price of him and it was somewhat more expensive than i could afford but i simply had to have him, i couldn't let money be an object.. so i told them how i felt and that i simply must have him but explained that i couldn't afford him at that point,; to my relief they very kindly agreed to keep him until i was able to pay!.. During the period of me saving up to get him i kept in contact with skullis and they send me more photos of him. The photos i recieved made me more adamant that it was him i was suppose to have.

After i had managed to save up enough money i messaged skills to let them know i was sending payment and they then shipped the stunning lapis lazuli skull by special mail.. i only had to wait 5 days this time.. i could hardly contain myself one i knew he had been shipped, after all that waiting he was finally on his way, so exciting. Once again i awaited for the delivery and spot on the 5th day there was a knock at the door it was a Currier, and i just knew that it was my new skull.

I opened the box carefully and removed all the padding, there he was "wow" he was beyond what i had seen in the pictures. He was breathtaking.
He didn't speak with me or utter anything to me when i 1st held him, he just seemed to get very warm... i decided to cleanse and charge him before he was used so i put him away until the next full moon; luckily i only had to wait 3 days.

Once he has cleansed and charged i decided to sit and hold him and just talk to him, he didn't reply, he didn't make noise all he did was make me warmer. I decided to pop him on the shelf next to Ostrid, it was then that i heard a noise, it sounded a bit like a mouse squeaking. I asked Ostrid to work with the new addition and see what was wrong and why i couldn't connect with him. Some days later i held Ostrid and he told me that the new skull was called Meti and that he was weighing me up, he wanted to know i was going to be good to him and not use him for anything negative. Ostrid said he had assured him i was good and that i wouldn't never miss use him.

That night i took them both to bed with me and placed them on the bedside table. I said good night to them both and shut my eyes, it was at that point i 1st heard Meti speak "OK i give in" i heard. I knew it was him rite away, i spoke back to him and he began to speak at ease, he told me how he knew Ostrid in a past life and how he had been awaiting to re-connect with him, he then mentioned that i had met him one time before but that i wasn't very nice in that lifetime!.. That is why he was wary of me. As time went on we spoke more an he began to be very protective of me and he also helped me to channel spirits.

I later looked into what his name meaning was however i was not able to find his name meaning, so i asked him and he told me that Meti was just a name that he liked being called and that is true name was Mitali and it means friendship. He was previously an Indian and this is how we crossed paths before, unfortunately he was unable to give me a date just kept mentioning the year of snakes. I have not looked into this as of yet.

Meti now has a place on the shelf next to ostrid however i speak with him often as he warms my hands.
