Crystal Healing

If you need more grounding should you just carry around a grounding stone? That depends. It can be a quick way to get results (especially wearing a magnetic anklet works fast for me). However it can also help to wear a fire or water stone to come at it a bit more gently. The fire stones are the sacral and solar plexus chakra area ones that people are familiar with such as Carnelian, Citrine etc. Water stones are the heart and throat chakra ones like Amazonite and Green Aventurine.

Both fire and water stimulate earth. This I have felt through my meditations going through the Crystal University courses with Samaya Aster (Naisha Ahsian). Today I am wearing on my left wrist three bracelets: Power Duo, Abundant Energy, and Ruby on adjustable Hemp. I really like Tiger’s Eye with Citrine in the 6mm (smaller stones) mix called The Power Duo that Artist Gems makes. Artist Gems is my business I started as a wholesaler and now I have a retail Kiosk in Boise Towne Square Mall too. We employ four local artists and donate to art programs 10% of proceeds. Check it out if you would like. Here’s to being grounded!

Is it a Crystal or a Rock?

I like the word rock. I was hoping to sell rocks at my shop and call them rocks, but I have noticed kids like the word crystal. So when I have a booth at the Farmers Market I often label my tumbled rocks and other stones “rock crystals”. Then kids can relate due to the video games and movies with magical crystals. Today I found my answer to the difference between the two. I found it while I was doing my homework for Crystal Resonance with Samaya Aster.

Crystal and Rocks are Minerals!

Minerals
Minerals are chemical elements that form a compound that is consistent throughout its structure. For example, when one atom of silicon (Si) and two atoms of oxygen (O) combine, they create the compound (SiO2). When six molecules of SiO2 arrange themselves together, they create a base unit of quartz. Quartz is a mineral, because it contains a compound that is pure and consistent throughout its structure. Energetically, minerals are very precise in the frequencies with which they can resonate due to the purity of their content. Both crystals and rocks are made up of minerals.

Crystals grow in a precise fashion and are geometric.
A crystal is a mineral that has grown under the perfect conditions to allow it to take on a precise geometric form that is determined by the minerals it contains. A crystalline form has a precise geometry of angles and planes that allow its overall form to reflect its unique mineral content. When base units of quartz arrange themselves in an offset screw formation, they will create a single terminated clear quartz crystal. When base units of calcium and carbon (CaCo3) arrange themselves into a crystalline form, they will create calcite crystals.

Crystals are homogenous, meaning that they have a regular grouping pattern throughout and atoms are arranged in the same manner throughout. This makes crystals holographic in nature, with each tiny grouping or base unit within being a replica of the overall form of the crystal.

There are fourteen possible arrangements of minerals into crystals, called the Bravais lattices.  Energetically, crystals are precise in the frequencies they can resonate with, and they are directional in that they run energy through their structures in precise ways.

Rocks
Rocks are combinations of two or more minerals that may or may not express themselves as crystals. For instance Granite is a rock that is composed of the minerals quartz, feldspar, plagioclase and biotite mica. It may also contain crystals of other minerals such as magnetite, pyrite, tourmaline, etc., depending upon where it is from and the conditions it formed under.

Rocks are much less precise in their energies because they contain many different minerals which may or may not be crystalline. Rocks are more broad spectrum in the energies with which they can resonate. They are non-directional because they do not have a precise crystalline structure.

Intention

How to manifest your intentions AKA reach your goals?

First know what they are. Become clear with what you want. Then steer your life towards these areas and away from distractions that do not include what it is that you really want. Things can change, so re-evaluate once in awhile. When you are clear with what you want and are clear about it in your daily interactions with people, intentions become easier to achieve. Your dreams can take place.

If you’re into meditation or visualization you can close your eyes for a moment and hold the vision of you doing what you want to do and everything going smoothly. Love and light around you and your chosen activities. People smiling and being appreciative.

As far as footwork goes your high-energy times of the day could be dedicated to activities that include your goals. Then during the tired times of the day (if you have any) do the chores of life that don’t take as much creative energy.

Feel free to share your progress as a comment on this blog. You’re going to do great things and feel great and help the world be wonderful! Surround yourself with supportive and loving people. Carry on.

Aquamarine: Release

What is not working in life right now thoughts, habits, media, clothes/belongings? Let them go to allow space for new things to occur. Aquamarine means water (aqua) and ocean/sea (marine). Thus the stone has been a talisman for mermaids and sailors. The color blue gives it the throat chakra designation so is helpful for communication and speaking one’s truth.

Give away what you don’t need and let go of preconceived notions of your rigid schedule. Let the universe and love brighten your day.

Advanced Reiki – Yes!

I just completed Advanced Reiki and it was even more amazing than I could have imagined. Working with crystals, which I already do when making jewelry, and extra healing modalities.

It was cool to continue developing my Reiki skills. I just happen to have lived where Reiki was first discovered (Kyoto Japan).

Happy trails, Drum Reiki Fun Timer

I love the water.

I grew up in Santa Cruz and swam in the ocean from age 7 to age 12 without supervision! I was riding the waves and loving it.

Now in Modesto I still appreciate the water and join with organizations that promote healthy rivers. Today we are putting a bird bath in the front yard. I’m looking forward to watching birds frolic in the water and be happy.

Energy is waves in the ocean. It ebbs and flows and clears the way for life force power. Reiki healing uses that same energy flow concept as it relates it to the body. The body has stored memories and energy blocks that can be cleared so that one can see today with fresh eyes and feel the courage to move on with vigor.

The road to a happier life.

For me Reiki has been life changing. I am no longer afraid of so many things, and I have a way to reduce pain and suffering for others.
