| | | While I do believe in the powers of gems and crystals, one must realise that they don't bring these powers automatically, you must learn how to manifest them.
To do this, you must identify what kind of powers the stones posess. Like all you lovely people are showing us now. Then touch I make sure that it is touching my skin, and I focus my energy, and send it from me, into the stone, where the energy takes shape into the desired effect. |

| | Crystal energy
There are a number of different opinions on the way to cleanse crystals from leaving them in running water (natural spring) for a month, to cleansing them by fire.
The first of these is really not practical for most of us because of time and the proximity of an appropriate natural spring, and the fire option is a bit dramatic!
Some stones will be adversely affected by fire. There are two more convenient and also very effective ways of cleansing: Using salt to cleanse crystals
Salt can be very harmful to some stones, for example, an opal left in salt will be ruined. So, to ensure there is no damage to your stone, but to ensure an effective and quick cleansing with salt, place the crystals in a glass dish which is in turn embedded in to a larger dish which is full of salt. The cleansing energy is maintained but the stone is safe.
Salt can be re-used for months, so it is also a cost effective and non-wasteful way to cleanse the crystals. If the stone has been worn for some time, i.e. for weeks, then 4 -6 hours will be enough. If the crystal has only been laid on briefly, then 10 minutes should suffice. Using Bach Flower Rescue remedy
Another way to cleanse your crystal is in water. Pure water with a few drops of Rescue Remedy (Bach Flower Remedy) in the water. 24 hours is sufficient to cleanse your crystal. http://www.colourtherapyhealing.com/..._cleansing.php
CLEANSING CRYSTALS
After acquiring your new stone or crystal, and before the first use of it( and after using it) you should cleanse it both inside and out. If your stone is not water-soluble, simply rinsing under running water should cleanse any dirt and fingerprints off of it. Even more important though is cleansing the stone of any energy imbalances it may have picked up. Because crystals and gemstones have a tendency to absorb emotional stress and other strong energies, it is very important to remove these imbalances and help the stone restore it's own inner-balance or equilibrium. Though crystals can do this over time on their own, if you continually use the crystal or stone, it will not have time to rebalance itself, so, I'm going to offer some ways you can help it along.
There are several methods you can use to cleanse your crystal from the slat method to using crystal clusters, smudging and even sound.
THE SALT METHOD
Please do no confuse this with the "salt water" method, which I do not recommend. Salt water can get into the pours, cracks and crevices of some stones and can also dull the finish and luster, over time breaking down your crystal and causing it harm. However, using dry sea salt you can effectively remove any negative and unwanted energy from your stones. Remember, salt itself is a crystal .
Simply take a bowl of sea salt and bury your stone in it for about 24 hours and then wipe the stone carefully and discard the salt. Salt has the ability to draw negative imbalances into itself, so that is why you must discard it after using it for any cleansing purposes.
SMUDGING METHOD
You can smudge your stone with incense or smudge sticks such as Frankincense, sandalwood, sage and cedar. The Herbs have a long traditional reputation for purifying and removing negativity. Simply hold your stone in the smoke of the herb, incense or smudge stick until you feel the negativity had been removed.
SUN METHOD
Place your stones outside in the sun or a window ledge will work fine if you don't have a safe place to put them. For added benefits and balance, I like to let them sit for 24 hours so they receive the energy of the sun as well as the energy of the moon.
SOUND METHOD
The vibrations of pure sound can quickly cleanse, balance and re-energize your stones . You can use a singing bowl, a bell, a gong, a chiming bar or a tuning fork. Sound them close to the crystal until you feel the crystal is completely cleared.
CRYSTAL CLUSTER
Place your stone on a crystal cluster over night to cleanse, balance and re-charge your stone http://www.thesoulelement.com/cleansingcrystals.htm | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
