Crystal Healing
Here are some common crystals and their healing properties
Quartz: For
crystal healing quartz is the most popular and extensively
used crystal. It comes in many kinds, colors, shapes and
size, among which are amethyst, citrine, clear quartz, snow
quartz, smokey quartz, etc.
I started out
with the quartz crystals, learned as much as I can
and started to work with a few
Quartz family of
crystals.
Clear quartz: Come as points, clusters, druze, in all sizes,
shapes and inclusions. Quartz crystal unblocks
energy centers and helps the body heal. Simply
holding a quartz point each day helps boost the
immune system.
Excerpt from Krystina Arcati’s book:
Gems and Crystal healing for the Beginners
About an eighth of the world’s crust is quartz,
and it has been used in buildings for thousands
of years. Many ancient people mistakenly believed
clear quartz to be fossilized ice, Roman ladies
used to carry quartz balls to cool their hands
when the weather turned warm.
I find clear quartz are very helpful in meditation.
It helps the mind to focus;it helps dispel
negativities.
Rose Quartz: Soft pink color in itself is very calming.
It is the stone for self- love, to uphold self-esteem
when it is being compromised, a calming stone.
It helps promote forgiveness by releasing the
anger and pain and the other negative energies.
Rose quartz exposes emotional imbalances; keep a
rose quartz in a room where arguments may likely
occur;it helps keep the boiling point down.
Sit with a rose quartz in meditation when you
are feeling perturbed, helps calm you down
emotionally and feel an inner peace.
Amethyst: Comes in deep shade of purple or lilac.
t is said that those who choose rose quartz
are also drawn to amethyst. This is a spiritual
stone,indicates creativity,capability of spiritual
healing.
Keep one under your pillow, reduces nightmares,
enhances dream state. Amethyst is a good crystal
healing against alcoholism.
Citrine: Comes in deep orange-brown or bright yellow color.
This stone does not absorb negative energies,
also known as the merchant stone, good to hold
when is under stress and anxiety. It is a stone
that helps one in polishing communication skills.
Smokey quartz: Has been considered a good luck stone.In the past,
it was given to soldiers about to go to battle.
It helps alleviate negativities and promotes relaxation.
Kept under the pillow at night,it is said to
induce lucid dreaming. Explore your inner self
with smokey quartz.It helps to balance sexual
energy and helps in recall activities.
Natural stones have stronger energies and
healing properties.
Crystal Healing and Grounding
Sometimes
we are vulnerable to stress because we are not properly grounded.
The energy level is spread out all over, focus is lacking
or absent, you know not whether you are coming or going.
Some grounding stones to help
are: smokey quartz, hematite, tiger’s eye and black tourmaline.
There are others that are equally effective.
Hematite: This stone is helpful when one tends to take
on the negative energies of others,like when
you allow yourself to be a sounding board
for everyone.
Carnelian: A chalcedony, jasper, translucent, also called
red agate, an orange crystal believed
to help one find focus amid confusion.
Moonstone: Format like
others off white in color, it is a variety of feldspar
with aluminum. It has a pearly appearance - can be white,
grey, pale yellow or almost colorless. It is believed
that moonstone’s energy grows weaker and stronger
as the moon wanes and waxes.It soothes stress,
good for grounding,, being referred to at times
as "mother earth" stone. It enhances
intuitive sensitivites, helps promote smoother
flow of life.
Lapis Lazuli: This stone
is believed to have links to biblical, Sumerian and Egyptian
origins. Its name is partly Arabic for "blue" (lazurite)
and partly Latin ‘stone" (lapis).
Lapis has been a popular healing stone for
several centuries- for eyesight problems, to
heal fevers and self -assurance. This is a good
stone for meditation. People who show a natural
affinity to this stone will find that it helps one
to develop and increase psychic awareness. It
also helps in cases of depression.
Tiger’s Eye: This
stone is a member of the quartz family. It’s variety in color
range from yellow, red, brown, golden yellow, green and blue,
They make eye-catching jewelry.
Tiger’s Eye is helpful as a protective stone.
You can carry it around in your purse, leave it
in your car, or as a jewelry. It is said to
counter-act nervousness, increases self-confidence
and provides protection. In meditation, the
layers of dark color next to bright colors
seem to be the epitome of the Yin/Yang principle,
the positive and negative principle working together.
