OHM Staff Picks & Recommendations: Mike's Picks

MOTHER LORD, because yellow. Yellow is a grounding color for me. It’s the solar plexus, the third chakra. It’s a go with your gut sort of color. And it’s important to me that I keep my wits about me. I love blind bag glass designs like this. I can find deep meaning within any color or design. It’s like divination reading tea leaves.

WATER-ISH, because swirls. This has always been my favorite of the elements stoppers. Keep swirling forever and ever water is a powerhouse.

ICOSAHEDRON, because Plato. The biggest of the Platonic solids, I encourage everyone to expand their minds by diving deeper into the fabric of reality.

WHO ARE YOU, because Alice. The rabbit hole keeps going. What could happen with a friend like the Caterpillar, because really, who are you?!

TIME FLIES, because change. You can never step in the same river twice. The flow of time is ever-present. A simple shift of the water and the landscape is reborn. Time flies is (an articulating!) reminder of embracing the moment for this particular constellation will never occur again, though if you concentrate hard enough it will always be 2:22.

WOOD-ING, because ground. I love a thumb ring. This chunky beast is great for me and reminds me to go slow, one ring (step) at a time. I use the knots to spin it.

CRITICAL HIT, because chance. Cuz, in the end, it’s all just luck, right? Every choice, every path, every moment is a roll of the die. I’m hoping for a natural 20 every time. But, I’m ok with a natural 1 if that’s what’s in front of me. This is the path I am on.
