Have You Ever Wondered Why Crystals Work The Way They Do?

Stones and crystals affect us in so many ways.  I spent years wondering how they work!

When I was a child, I was given a birthstone ring and was told that the garnet in it was about love and that it would protect me. I was puzzled back then and wondered how it could do that! Much later, when I started collecting beautiful stones and making them into jewelry, I became really curious about why and how they affect the people who wear them.

So how do crystals work the way the way they do? 

Stones and crystals have been created in the universe, in and on the earth for millions of years.  When we come in contact with these amazing elements, we are receiving the power of the sun, the stars, the moon and our own planet, earth. With the direct connection to the universe around us, crystals and stones can be universally healing.

 The people of ancient civilizations used crystals as talismans, peace offerings and enhancement of spiritual connection as well as for physical and emotional healing. How this happens depends upon what a stone or crystal is made of, how it was made, what shape and color it is and how we interact with it. 

For example, a piece of turquoise, big or small, can strengthen us. It can help us to feel calm inside and clear negative energy from around us. Jewelry made of Jasper is very nurturing; it can heal us in different ways, depending on the type of Jasper it is. Amethyst protects; it also balances highs and lows and helps with memory, insomnia, motivation, spirituality and many other things.

REMINDER

After stones have been selected and enhanced with our intentions, their vibrations continue to affect us for a time and to help us whenever we hold or wear them.  Another way that they continue to help us is that they are a beautiful reminder of our intentions. If we take the time to really get to know the stones and the energies they share, what we feel in their presence is a very strong reminder of the changes we intend.

I feel the power of the stones very strongly.  In my classes on the use of stones and crystals for healing, we held each of the stones, closed our eyes and said, “I open my heart that you might know me.  Open your heart that I may know you.” The qualities of the stones that I felt when we did that was amazing.  Each stone has its own special energetic sensation and message. Since that time I have used my interactions with stones and my intentions to heal and manifest many changes.  I am so grateful to these ancient elements and the effect they have had on my life.

SPECIAL BLESSINGS

We can see that how we interact with our crystals is very important to how they can help to change our lives. Stones also need to be handled with respect and to be thanked for the help that they give. These ancient elements are a wonderful blessing from Mother Earth and our appreciation needs to be expressed.

Stones can be specially blessed as well. I bless stones with Universal White Time Healing, an advanced energy healing system that is a beautiful manifestation of light and love. The power of stones can be greatly magnified with powerful energetic healing techniques. May you all be blessed very abundantly with the stones you choose!
