Namaste नमस्कार। – welcome to Crystalline Harlot-A Collective Healing Apothecary. Crystalline being the “energy matrix” that connects us all to the Great Goddess, in her spiritual aspect of the Harlot.
…..As I set out to write this, I keep in check the purpose of my words and endeavors here. My hope and heart is to to help others on a multi facet level, to heal through energy medicine metaphysically. Here you will find available, Crystalline Harlot’s Specialty Shop and Services-Healing Apothecary , offering a variety of healing products (Artisan Healing Alchemist Soap and Body Products-Handmade, Chakra Boards, Healing Chairs, Monthly Magikal Boxes, Tarot Crystal Readings, Reiki Polarity Therapy, Art Therapy).  There are informative writings in Energy Medicine Topics , and a Culinary Magik  area. There is a diverse and large Metaphysical and New Age Store, with over 6000 diverse spiritual metaphysical items and books, in addition to the Specialty Shop.  The site show cases an Eclectic Art Gallery of Spirit. The satirical ” Glitter Whore Blog ” is intended to expose the past academically and help others engage soulfully with a historical/herstorical mindset. To look deep into the roots of our past, to educate, re identifying  past stereotypes, and often misunderstood archetypes and subjects. Though, most importantly to connect us to the great Mother Goddess and all her facets, celebratory in unison.

I have come to understand the idea that knowledge is power, and truth is solidity. If we are to know and except truth, then we are enabled with power to expand or make change. This is a very special and sacred space. In this space, though just a drop in the vast asynchronous web world, I plan to “shine write”. I strive for accuracy  and honesty and often I  share info from some of my favorite sources that I find impacting and credible- always leaving links to these wonderful sites for your further endeavors. My goal is expansion and truth, please feel welcomed to kindly do the same.
With all that being said, I move on to the meaning and inspiration for the blog title “Glitter Whore”. In the mid 90’s I was younger and hungry for knowledge, with the birth of the internet and technical advancements, I became an absolute cyber glutton! How many can relate? The hunger for credible information was and is immense, and I have spent countless hours in cyber. During that time, a dear kindred friend shared with me a site called “Glitter Whores”, provocative for sure. I do not remember all the details of that site but those two words have never left my side. It was there that my life changed drastically as it dared me to take that journey with a mind of my own. A journey beyond contemporary /conservative thinking in the arena of sensuality. spirituality, healing and subjects of the like. Growing up female with the derogatory definition of “WHORE” afoot, dancing its way around feminine self image, impacted me negatively. I was totally conflicted with the coupling of GLITTER and WHORE, only to find out an archetype image misunderstood. A time when the word Whore was of honor (yes I said Honor). So I set out to find that blog from 19 years ago, sadly to no avail. At this point I must recreate it in aspiration to bring to others what it brought to me. There will be writings here of great variety, from different  authors as a way to expand our perspectives. ALL peoples are welcomed here as my intent thrives on a diverse community fueled with LOVE. So very delighted to have you here visiting. Blessed Be….
