For centuries,
Gemstones and
Crystals have been used for their magical healing and mystical powers as
conduits of energies. The Mayans and Hebrew civilizations, Native American
Indians and East Indians have used them in spiritual rituals and as aids to
physical healing.
Gemstones and
Crystals 'vibrate' on their own individual frequency. They vibrate in a way
that resonates with and strengthens particular energies inside each person.
These are energies of the inner self, the energies that make up the attitudes
and human qualities of a person. They are believed to work as conductors,
allowing to focus energy via a person's thoughts to stimulate healing. This is
determined by the
Gemstones and
Crystals internal crystalline structure and by the atomic vibrations that
are specific to that structure.
Gemstones and
Crystals are different in the sense that a gemstone gives a very narrow
bandwidth of subtle energy vibrations, whereas a quartz crystal operates in a
much broader way and amplifies all the subtle energy frequencies. A stone is
the source of the energy vibration, whereas a crystal amplifies and reflects
back the vibrations that exist in their environment.
Thus the
Gemstones and
Crystals work somewhat differently. A stone could be termed stronger than a
crystal for it could help you in concentrating on your growth by working on one
energy at a time. A crystal strengthens all areas of the inner self at the same
time.
Cleansing your
Gemstones and
Crystals:
Gemstones and
crystals attract a lot of 'vibrations' - some of them negative as well. The
Gemstones and
Crystals before reaching you has travelled through time and space. Some
crystalline formations are believed to be millions of years old. Therefore
before you begin to use your stone for any purpose, it is important to have
those negative 'vibrations' cleansed, thus making sure that only the purest
energies remain within. Also, never let anyone touch your crystal. Here are a
few cleansing methods for your gemstone (use any one of them)
1. Water / Milk / Salt Water - These are universal
cleansers and your
Gemstones and
Crystals can be washed in them or kept immersed overnight and used/worn
(for the first time only) in the morning before sunrise. Keeping in the rain
for many hours also cleanses it.
2. Bury overnight the
Gemstones and
Crystals under the earth (without wrapping).
3. Hold the
Gemstones and
Crystals in your hand and visualise negative energies flowing out of the
stone. Chant a phrase 'commanding' the -ve energies to leave the stone and
'ask' the Gemstones and
Crystals to be self-cleansing. This might require some practice before you
can perfect it.
4. Pass
Gemstones and
Crystals through the smoke of incense such as sweetgrass, frankincense or
sage. |
