“Think about our bodies. We’re a chain of veins and organs and they’re all interconnected. If something isn’t going right in one area, the whole system can get out of whack. That’s the way I see the world. We’re all connected. I don’t see myself as this separate entity. I see things in a much larger scale. Everything I do directly affects another person, all the way down the chain. Every person I help can help another; we’re all connected. Change happens one person at a time. And I want to commit my life to seeing that through.”
~ Katie Kacvinsky
Am I insane?
Maybe.
But I can’t help myself.
I conceived this simple project. To create a crystal grid on my property, to help to provide energetic support for us as we shift from the old energy into the new. For support from our ancestors and guides as we shift old family patterns and beliefs that no longer serve us. As we pattern-break for ourselves and our loved ones. I wanted to help support us as we leave 2016, and this age-old cycle of patriarchal energy.
I created this grid to help our feet find our souls’ own songlines as we walk into the new energy. So that we can become part of this great shift of consciousness by being who we came here to be, and doing what we came here to do as we move into 2017 and this dawning new energetic era.
Each stone takes me three minutes to dedicate.
I choose one that feels right for you. I hold it in my hands, I close my eyes, and I offer up my prayer and dedication – that your family line know healing, that you release old patterns, beliefs and relationships that no longer serve you. That you gently and easily let go of anger, guilt, shame, disconnection, old hurts. I pray and intend that your family line returns to a place of love, flow and abundance. That you move into your heart-space, and reconnect with your own Soul Wisdom. I offer up my prayer that your feet find their way in 2017. That your path becomes clear. That you can more easily be yourself. That you know and express yourself truly. That you live life to your highest potential. That you are loved for who you are. That you come to know how much you are loved.
I arrange the stones I have blessed and take a photo, so I can tag the picture on social media. I want you to feel involved and connected. I want you to know that you are not alone – that you matter, and that you are supported.
Then we carry the stones down to the grid, and I place them, one by one.
After which I go back to the computer, and gather more names, and write new lists and the process begins again.
There are over 900 stones in the grid now. 900 people, radiating love and positive shift to so many more.
I will be adding more stones to this grid until 12pm on Tuesday 27th December, 2016. (That’s Sydney, Australia time) If you’d like to add your name, please let me know in the comments below.
If you’ve already asked there is no need to ask again. I have you.
There’s another way you can help. You can make your own grid. For details go to the Free Stuff section in my shop, and select the Ancestral Healing Grid Instructions. (And be aware that it may take an hour or so for the information to be emailed after selection of this option.) It’s easy to do, even if you’ve never done something like this before.
Know that I’m thinking of you. Know that I’m holding you in my thoughts and prayers. That I’m holding space for you and your family right now.
I might be crazy, but I think this matters.
I love you, and I wish you well,
Nicole <3 xoxo
*Below are just a few pictures of how this grid has grown. Please be patient if you haven’t seen your name tagged yet on my Instagram and Facebook posts. It all takes time, and there are so many names to tag! You can follow me at both places by searching for Cauldrons and Cupcakes <3
And another thought. If other middle-aged women are crazy cat ladies, I must be the crazy rock lady. I easily have 1000 stones in my grid now, and I still have plenty left to choose from…

How beautiful Nicole and what a wonderful thing for this time of year as we come to the new beginnings of January. You know, I had set three stones out on the balacony for several days and they called for me to come bring them inside. I did so, and then sat down and read astrobuss, coming across your story a mere minute later. It would be a great honor to be added to your grid. I will definitely follow along on Facebook. Blessings, Inanna
Dear Nicole, Thank you for your grid. Will you please add the following names if you have time? Lisa Morton (that’s me), Danielle Tannourji, Michael Morton, Thomas Morton, Jerry Ruxton, Milton Morton, Patricia Morton, Nicholas Morton. Maybe this is too much? If so, then just add Danielle’s. Thank you!

Can’t recall if I have already as its that frantic time of year . I have carried the crystals you recommend each time., even in my bra if I don’t have pockets! Xx🔮
Hello dear Nicole, I already feel that part “that your family line know healing, that you release old patterns, beliefs and relationships that no longer serve you. That you gently and easily let go of anger, guilt, shame, disconnection, old hurts.” Thank you so much! This is just wonderful! I showed my 8 y.o son the pictures and explained the grid to him. He was thrilled!
Could you please add my dear neighbour, Patxy? Gratitude and love.
Hi Nicole, just found your lovely Facebook page via jbuss astrology. What a wise old tree! Please add a crystal to the grid for me, and for my son James Hummer. Thank you, Colleen Morrissey
Rocks are much less demanding than cats. But also less cuddly. Sometimes. I prefer combining both but my grids depend on how quickly the cats leave after placement 😊. May my husband Sean Titus and I be included please? Thank you for your love and service.
Dear Nicole! You are beautiful. Your loving heart is deeply felt. What a powerful creation of love. I would be honored to be a part of the grid. In love and service… SriMati

Hi Nicole, I’ve been hesitating to post a link to your grid posts from my blog because I know you’re already overloaded with additions. If I did post a link in my blog, you’d probably get another fifty or so requests, but they’d be from all over the Planet. I’d love to do that, but I want to get your okay first. Love, Jim ( https://astrobuss.wordpress.com/ )
Jim, go for it! <3 Thank you xoxo
With gratitude linked to this post, with quotes, from https://astrobuss.wordpress.com/2016/12/19/2016-17-transition-crystal-grid/ .

Dear Nicole: The world is a better place because of you. You have been sending me your special messages for quite some time now and I look forward each and every day to hear from you. You have no idea how many times your messages have changed my day and it seems your messages come just when I need them. I am a world away from you in Canada but I still feel a closeness to you. My heart is very sad right now as my oldest child has just separated from her husband, she has a four year old child and my only grandson (I have 6 children).. If you could place a crystal for Aleesha and myself Kathryn. We both need to start 2017 on the right foot. I am also sending you my love from Canada. (although I am in Arizona right now visiting my sister). Wishing you all the very best of health in 2017. Merry Christmas!!
please add my name! em mccarty. i am going through a huge transition as i try to let go of the bad patterns that helped shape me so that i can find my own shape.
This is so awesome! I am thankful the opportunity was offered to be included in this ceremony. I love seeing the photo of the group my stone was in, and I appreciate the progression of seeing the grid grow. Thank you, Nicole! <3
I’d love to add my name – this is beautiful! Anne Joldersma
Hi Nicole – please add my name and that of my two boys : Juanita, George and Timothy Berry Thank you.I will hold you in my thoughts.
You aren’t crazy Nicole, it’s people like you that change the world.
But wow, you have over 1000 crystals and more to choose from? I am a bit jealous lol . That’s my crazy crystal lady goals right there lol
This is beautiful. Could top please add my name, it is Nichole Cunningham. Have a great Christmas and New Year. Thanks
Please add my name Nicole, Pamela Pollock. There are parts of my family that are in serious need of healing. My older sister and her two daughters and all of the grandchildren have broken their relationship and are not speaking anymore. It is affecting all of our whole family. My dear 91 year old mother is heartsick over this. So for you to add my name to this circle would be a great blessing for me. If you care to add my Mother’s name Alyce Pollock well that would be divine! And my sister Lorna Pollock too! Thank you so much for this very generous offer. I am one of your greatest fans and followers for years now 🙂 Sending you all of my love! I wish peace for this whole planet!
Hi Nicole, I would love to be added to your beautiful grid. Thank you!
No you are not insane, we like you the way you are

Hello Nicole, My name is May Nelson and I have only recently discovered Cauldrons and Cup cakes and it has not taken me long to see the positive effect that you have. I would love to have the opportunity to be added to your grid. Thank you May
