I just want to go ahead and list here again for any new readers the books that I am currently using to create this blog. This is definitely not every thing I have on any of the subjects, just a really solid starting poing and I prefer to give credit where it is due. All images are my favorite of the item from a google image search. Crystal of the Day is brought to you by Judy Hall and her book The Crystal Bible. The Complete Herb Sourcebook written by David Hoffman brings you Herb of the day. Rune of the day is from a book called A Practical Guide to THE RUNES, the author is Lisa Peschel. Finally the little birthday snippets are from The Element Encyclopedia of Birthdays. Theresa Cheung is the person who wrote it.
Crystal

Powerful positive healing stone, beneficial for the environment or personal energy field. With Amethyst, it removes energy implants and wards off psychic attack. With Carnelian and Ruby, it protects against psychic attack and assists earthbound spirits to move on.
Herb
Boneset
Parts Used: Dried aerial parts
Collection: Voneset should be collected as soon as teh flowers open in August or September.
Boneset is perhaps teh best rememdy for the relief of the associated symptoms that accompany influenza. It will speedily relieve the aches and pains as well as aid the body in dealing with any fever that is present.
In the treatment of influenza, it may be compined with Yarrow, Elderberry Flowers, Cayenne, or Ginger
Infusion: Pour a cup of boiling water onto 1-2 teaspoonfuls of teh dried herb and leave to infuse for 0-15 minutes. Drink this as hot as possible. During fevers or the flu, it should be drunk every half hour.
Rune
Kenaz
Kenaz is another rune of Fire, but unlike FEHU, it is a gentle, more controlled form of Fire which gives the ability and the will to create. It is teh rune of the artist and craftsman and is useful either when creativity is the issue or when artistic things are very important to the person for whom you are creating the runescript. It also governs the technical aspects of magic. It is the rune that governs passion, lust, and secual love as fiery, positive attributes.
Uses:
- Use to strengthen any runescript.
- Healing, physical well-being.
- Love, stability and passion in relationships.
- Fresh starts
- Protection of valuables.
