Plant an intention into your seed jewelry!
Elevate your Mama Maize adornment from a unique statement piece to a soul-friend who will listen to your heart's deepest wishes, and through applying their 'kernel of creation' energy, partner with you to help your dreams become real.
This simple and beautiful process is accessible enough for someone who is new to ritual--and yet--deep and potent enough for someone well-versed in alchemy and the ceremonial arts.
Held by the loving presence of the elements--water, fire, soil, and air (the same nourishing forces that grew the corn you wear!)--we will strengthen the heart-to-heart (and ear-to-ear 😉) bond between you and the seeds, encoding an intention for these willing helpers to help grow in your life.
The Sacred Logistics:
- We will meet for 30 mins on Zoom. (If you feel you would benefit from 60 mins, especially for more time exploring what your intention is, add two of these to your cart.)
- After you've placed your order, you will be emailed my link to schedule our session!
- You'll need to bring with you: your Mama Maize piece!, a candle, and bowl of water.
- It is recommended to take some time and reflect on your intention before we meet, but it's okay to not be certain and show up with a willingness to listen during the ritual and be surprised by what the seeds want you to know about what is true now.
The HeartSeed Planting Ritual is perfect at any time but is especially suited to support you through a life transition, threshold crossing, integration of a meaningful experience, or at any moment when you are feeling like you could use an extra reminder of your big "why" and the dream(s) you hold most dear.
The seed
The seed
Every gem is a real kernel of Glass Gem corn, the heirloom rainbow corn saved and bred for decades by Carl Barnes, a farmer of Cherokee heritage. We grow it ourselves in Northern California, dry the cobs for a full year, and choose only the most luminous seeds. No two are alike.
Materials & care
Materials & care
Each seed is sealed in resin to protect its color and glow. Care for them like pearls: last thing on, first thing off.
- Take off before swimming, showering, or the sauna
- Keep away from perfume, lotion, and cleaners
- Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth
- Store in its pouch, out of direct sun

Before it was jewelry, it was alive.
Your gem began as a seed we planted in spring, tended through summer, and harvested in the fall. Then it rested on the cob for a full year before we chose it for you. You're wearing a season of our garden.
