Agate Spirit <\/em><\/strong>– a Talisman by Lynda McKinney Lambert<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

I saw this quote on a blog post recently..  The message  stopped me in my tracks – for I am a TALISMAN MAKER.  It’s not often I read anything about talismans or the creation of a talisman. However,, this is what I do in my studio in rural western Pennsylvania in the Village of Wurtemburg. Each talisman I  create is unique and one-of-a-kind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I create talismans and wall pieces – out of hand- dyed or commercial  fabrics; natural gem stones;  water-worn  stones from the creek or a river nearby; Japanese Seed Beads;  Czech Fire Polished Beads & Crystals;  Swarovski Crystals;  and  a variety of  Found Objects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What do YOU  know about TALISMANS?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A talisman  is an object that reminds the wearer that there is supernatural power – a Holy God who is the Creator of all that exists.  It is not the object itself that has powers, it is an object that reminds us that there is a Higher Power – the  Creator – and he  is in control of the entire universe and all of the   properties that bring protection & healing.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The talismans I make are worn as a necklace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Talisman is “Evening Vespers.”

Created by Lynda McKinney Lambert – at her River Road Studio.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

As I work on a talisman, I am in a quiet state of prayer and communication with my Creator.  Each talisman I make,  reminds me that I am protected from all powers of evil or anyone who would try to steal my life or bring harm, sickness or death upon me. Talismans are objects of faith – a witness of my faith in  God Almighty. They are sacred objects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For a Christian, the  cross  has also been proved to emit strong positive energies that can ward off evil.  A talisman gives the wearer  a reminder that they are protected by God.  From ancient time to the present, a  talisman is the symbolic representation  of God’s  healing power.   A talisman  can be hung around the neck  as a witness to God’s protection. The talisman is a REMINDER of God’s power, and a celebration of the natural world he created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Christianity ~ A perfect example of a talisman in the Christian faith  is the cross.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
