Elements:

• Six red jasper towers

• Four black tourmaline crystals

• Dried Osmanthus flowers

• Limestone “Zen sand”

• White earthenware tray

This arrangement came to me in a dream. I woke up feeling so relaxed and grounded just from imagining putting it together. I couldn’t wait to do it for real. It took some time to find all the elements, but as is so often the case, they showed up at the perfect time. I knew the bright yellow of dried Osmanthus would complement the red jasper and black tourmaline, but also felt that the flower helped complete the thought of finding protection and grounding through our connection with nature.
