CARING
FOR AND CLEANING YOUR CRYSTALS
Crystals
are a symbol of our own inner beauty and act as our teachers in
helping us to express that beauty. In order for your crystals
to assist you, you need to make it yours.
First,
you will need to erase or clear from it the vibrations of all
those who have handled it - not because those vibrations are bad
but because your crystal, in order to respond to your needs and
wishes, must be attuned to your vibrations.
One
way to do this is to bury the crystal in the Earth until you feel
it has been cleansed. Wash your crystal and if possible, put it
in a place where it can dry in the sun.
Follow
this procedure not only when you get your crystal, but if you
have been using it often for healing or meditation.
Another method is to burn cedar and sage leaves (Smudge
Sticks or American Indian Ceremonial Incense)
or a pure incense such as Nitiraj
Nagchampa and pass your crystal through the
smoke. This
method is excellent for cleaning your crystals as well as your
environment. We recommend either of these methods, and a third:
that you spend time getting to know your crystal. Explore the
depths of its beauty.
Hold
it in both hands, feel the vibrations, place it over your heart
and on your third eye (between the eyebrows). Find out if it is
giving you a message. Don´t be discouraged if you don´t
sense the message. Give it time, you will.
You
may want to keep your crystal on a bedside table or a desk where
you work. An altar or circle of stones is particularly beneficial
for sleep, sweet dreams, concentration, and creativity. You may
want to carry a pouch of small stones with you throughout the
day.
Every
so often give your crystal a bath in salt water, and again let
it dry in the sun. Above all, treat it with respect and love.
Your crystal is a gift of beauty from the Earth, a gift of love.
Please call us if you have any questions about using your crystal.
