Crystals 101:
Do you love stones but aren’t sure how to start? You are not alone! Humanity’s love of gemstones is a global story as their legacy is woven into our history. Cherished for their beauty and healing properties there is a stone to help improve health, assist with romance, increase wealth plus many more scenarios! Contemporary methods of crystal therapy include: using crystals as meditation tools, personal talismans or the laying-on-of-stones. Ready, set, go following are the four foundational steps to help you begin an extraordinary crystalline adventure!
- 1. Selection: How to choose a stone.
Breathe, pause and watch where your attention is drawn when selecting a stone. Don’t be surprised if you find the crystal you’re attracted to is not the clearest or the largest or the most colorful. Trust it is a perfect choice for you today.
- 2. Cleansing: Gemstone preparation.
There are several methods to “clear” a stone. A few options include: placing in sea salt, washing in a natural water source, (ocean, pond, and stream), burying in the earth, infusing with white light, or cleansing with breath. Note: Some crystals such as selentite will melt when placed in water. Others such as fluorite and amethyst will fade when placed in direct sunlight.
- 3. Programming: Finding Focus
Working with a crystal requires clear intent. Do you want to access information? Receive or send healing vibrations? Crystals amplify and direct energy, using the power of intent; they assist in the manifestation of your request. Clearly express your purpose, take action and the miracles will follow.
- 4. Charging: Remember to re-energize
There is a natural rhythm a time to work, a time to rest. Choosing solar energy invokes masculine energy and action while the moonlight brings to mind feminine mysteries and energies. Do you want to plant intention, grow ideas, harvest inspiration or store energy? When you’re clear on what fits for you create the connection feel the pulsing surge of natural power.
With a deeper understanding of the basics, go ahead and enjoy the crystalline adventure. I look forward to hearing about your crystalline adventures.
Rock on dear friends!
