Crystal Stones and Crystals
In order for us to function in this rapidly changing world, we need to find more peace and harmony within our lives.
Since the beginning of time Crystal Stones and Crystals have played a vital role in our evolution. Every Crystal has a different purpose and carries its own energy. The power to heal with Crystals is associating the correct healing color to the correct healing stone.
The human body is designed to self-build and self-heal. This can only occur when there is an energy balance between body, mind, and soul.
There are seven energy points known as the chakras. These conduct and filter a constant flow of energy though the body. Crystal healing helps to maintain and balance, allowing the energy to flow and release any blockages. Crystals carry there own energy vibrations. Crystal Stones and Crystals send there energy and vibrations to the area of the body requiring healing.
Crystal come from mother earth so by linking them with the planetary energy and influences, they have the ability and power to realign and heal the body’s energy fields. This promotes an overall feeling of well-being.
Crystals play a crucial part in our technology. They control many electronic devices that we use in our everyday lives. From your computer to your VCR they even help in allowing us to send rockets to the moon. Without crystals we would not have the communication system which we have around us to day. They even counteract the low frequency vibrations from microwave ovens and television sets. Quartz watches and clocks get their name from the quartz crystal which is an essential item in their manufacture, this is responsible for the accuracy of their time keeping.
Throughout the world crystals are being used to heal the earth. Medical and scientific reports confirm that crystals have healing properties and that healers, therapists, farmers, and wise men have all used crystals going back many hundreds of years. Crystals are safe and successful when used to heal adults, children or animals.
Crystals take our bodies energy and send it out from our body as another form of energy. When electricity is placed into a crystal it will give off vibrations. When you hit or squeeze a crystal it gives off light and electricity. In each of these cases the energy that goes in the crystal is different to the energy that comes out of the crystal. It becomes transformed into an energy which is unique to each crystal.The crystals force-field helps to stimulate growth which in turn penetrates and affects every level of consciousness and matter.
Crystals are responsive and like to transform and regenerate there energy, this helps to stabilize the emotional body and also helps to energize the crystals physical power. Crystals help to improve the ability to dream, they can also help to develop intuition and psychic sense when meditating. They help to increase the power of the brain, which helps us to remember what we have learned throughout our life.
The Atlantean civilization had healing temples made from crystals and gemstones which were used for people that required healing. In India they used Ayurvedic medicine. This involved grinding the gemstones into a very fine powder and then mixed with a liquid. The client then takes a prescribed dosage.
Many cultures believe that stones and gemstones had a life giving potency which would provide the wearer with strength if worn or carried. Over the years this led to the use of gems and crystals being used for healing various conditions. It has now become a highly developed science. In 1980 Dael Walker a director of the Crystal Awareness Institute in America tested people’s ability to be healed with crystals. Out of the 234 people who were tested for reduction of pain or stiffness, by holding and having crystal placed around them 227 confirmed a significant reduction in pain. In an article written for the Crystal Source book in 1987 he said, “the crystal responds to thoughts and emotions and interacts with the mind. It increases thought energy and emotional power and reduces stress and pain”.
Crystal Stones and Crystals of the Calendar
The belief that a particular stone was dedicated to each month of the year seems very ancient and was possibly related to the twelve stones on the breastplate of Jewish high priests. The writings of St Jerome and Josephus comment on a connection between the twelve stones and the twelve months of the year as well as the twelve zodiacal signs. The Chaldeans who lived in Mesopotamia around 4000BC discovered a relationship between the planets and specific gems.
The general wearing of a stone associated with the birth date did not become widely fashionable until the eighteenth century. Before this time the stones were used more for therapeutic reasons. Originally it was thought better to have a stone for each month of the year. The stone of the month was believed to generate the most healing power and give protection. To wear the stone of the sign under which one was bornwas also meant to magnify the vibratory influence of that particular planet.
In the sixteenth century it was fashionable to wear an emerald in the spring and a ruby in the summer. You would wear a sapphire in the autumn and a diamond in the winter.
The emerald is associated with Venus the goddess of love maybe is was appropriate for a young man or women to wear the emerald when finding love. The color green in a gem symbolizes growth, sensitivity and a new birth. The ruby is known as the king of the jewel, stimulating expression and creativity.
The Industrial Revolution swept away much of the traditional jeweler being worn as a sign of wealth and status. Gradually more people were able to afford to buy gems and the subsequent popularization of gem collecting lead to the custom of associating specific stones with particular wedding anniversaries and the common use of birthstones charts as we know them today.
How Healing works
A healer should be experienced in crystal healing and must understand the way the crystals and there colors can be mixed together.
All crystal stones and crystals color have there own color and vibration, so before the healer can start your treatment they will ask you a few simple questions. This is to assess which crystals colors they need to use. By giving to much exposure to certain crystal colors can result in side effects. Crystal healing must be used wisely and only by healers that have the knowledge to use it correctly.
Crystal healing unblocks the negative patterns and helps to clear the energy field which surrounds the body. Healing is a process of working with the energy field and with the help of the crystals will bring you back to feeling whole again.
The energy field is the energy of the soul. Each of us is first and foremost a soul. Working with the energy field for a healer means they are working with the energy of the soul and this is the highest form of intervention you can receive. It is the most efficient way to identify and eliminate the root causes of both psychological and physical illness.
Crystal healing helps to raise the vibration frequency of your energy field. At an emotional level this can be accomplished by the crystals releasing the low frequency feelings of sadness, anger, and fear. Allowing us to learn to live with the feeling of peace and joy, this also includes helping us to have positive thoughts.
Crystal stones and crystals do this by working on the body’s energy fields which are known as the “chakras”. These are involved in processing emotional energy. When the chakras are not working properly you can feel unwell or tied.
When you visit a healer the room in which they work should be light and bright with candles and crystals and maybe fresh flowers. All these things help to give a feeling of peace, and an atmosphere of harmony. The room should have no negativity and you should immediately feel comfortable and relaxed. Healing work demands that anyone entering a healing room should feel welcome and that everything that is spoken about is keep confidential between you and the healer. Crystals are light, spirit and love, they represent another dimension and open a way to move and communicate between the earth and the next dimension.
Perhaps we should begin to examine every part of life which we have previously taken for granted. Our bodies are like plants if they are not feed and watered they will die or become weak. For to long we have ignored what we are doing to the earth and how it is screaming out for our attention. The earth is soft and gentle and is especially beneficial for all living things and through man’s sensitivity all we are doing is taking and never replacing.
Crystals are an integral part of the earths core they are here to help us. Crystal stones and crystals are placed on earth to send out healing to all cultures of life whether man, animal or plant life. Crystals and gems are magical and mysterious and they are a law unto themselves. When they loss there splendor they become ill as we do, but when they are shining they sparkle as we do, when we are happy.
They can be used to amplify our thoughts, help us to focus, transmit energy and generate love. When we have crystals in our life they show us a rainbow of color which helps us to have a peaceful and joyful life.
I hope this gives you an insight to what crystal healing is about.
