Crystals For Good Luck Charms

Crystals can be used as good luck charms for many people, especially the ones that have been formatted into pendants or the ones that etched writing has been engraved into the crystal. Does either of these options make the crystal or stone more powerful? No, actually neither of them gives the crystal nor stones any more or less power. What these do is create a subconscious link in your mind when working with the crystal, pendants, or carved stone.

When working with specialized crystals and stones for working with good luck charms you want to make sure you pick a crystal that is a vibrational match for you when you are in a particularly good and happy mood. If you walk into a crystal store looking for luck and not already feeling lucky what you are going to draw in are crystals that are at the low vibrational level match for yourself, so they are not going to be much of a help. How can you be feeling like you need luck and still feel lucky? This is the trick. All you have to do is be in a really good mood and “feeling” lucky. It is all about your emotional output for what you are experiencing. Play some happy upbeat music in the car on the way to the crystal store or make sure you are thinking about a particularly lucky time in your life. It can be anything from when you met your spouse, won some money at the lottery, or found that special prize – anything that greats this excitement, happy, and lucky feeling from inside.

Once you have this feeling, keep thinking about this emotion, the things that had you feeling this way and hold this image for as long as possible when choosing your lucky charms. Once you have found the magnetic attraction to the one(s) that feel right for you, remember that they are crystals too not just luck charms, and take them home to be cleansed and programmed. Make sure to carry them around with you where they can be within your energetic field as much as possible and have a free flowing current of energy.

Crystal Healing With Amethyst

Amethysts are beautiful crystals to work with and can be found in almost any crystal, metaphysical, holistic rock and gem type of store. They are one of the common “staples” of a crystal healing kit for any type of practitioner, beginner through advanced. Amethyst is a variety of quartz and come in shades of violet and purple. They are not to be confused with a purple quartz.

Amethyst, due to its color and vibrational frequency, works best with the upper chakras and upper physical body issues. These can range from simple headaches, migraines, psychic intuition, dream recall, clarifying issues, insomnia, selflessness issues, spirituality connection, nightmares, quieting the mind, meditation, and even issues dealing with sobriety. As you can see the list can continue, as Amethyst has a direct link to the mind and one’s inner soul. For the physical body, as well, it can boost the immune system, increase the production of hormones, help balance out one’s metabolism, and aids in the circulatory system.

When working with Amethyst, make sure you state your goals and intention with your work very clearly. This crystal will not only help quiet things down for your work but will also bring about a less scattered feel to any energy issues that are at hand during the session.

Simple exercises for Amethyst are placing one under a pillow before sleeping to help reduce insomnia. You can also place three around the head area when an onset of headache starts to alleviate the pain and return to a balanced state of being. You can also combine Amethyst and other crystals or gemstones for working on issues with your own personal life as well as sessions you are providing for your clients!

Healing Throat Chakra On Animals

A lot of times people don’t always think about animals and their chakra points, especially when focusing on the animal’s fifth chakra area, until something happens that deals with a vocal issue. Animal’s energy centers can become blocked, damaged, stagnant, and need healing energy just as much as our human energy centers do!

An animal’s fifth chakra center, also called the Throat Chakra, is located at the animal’s throat located near his/her vocal cords. This energy center is associated with the color blue and deals with issues of communication, expression, eloquence, and faith. When this energy center is not balanced, or is blocked and has a lot of stagnant energy, the animal will not be able to communicate normally. This can go to either extreme from being very vocal with excessive barking, howling, whining, crying, meowing, purring, hissing, etc. This can also go to the opposite extreme when the animal’s voice becomes raspy, less vocal or eve completely stopping his/her vocalization.

I prefer to work with crystals and energy healing when working with animals and their behavioral patterns. For the throat chakra area you can use crystals such as Aquamarine, a good one for this area, along with Blue Quartz or even Blue Topaz. Remember to always listen to your intuition, work with an open heart and mind, and a balanced and grounded energy before starting an animal healing session. If you do these simply things you will have a successful healing and both you and the animal will be thankful that you did!

Sand Cleansing Of Crystals

Sand cleansing is a fun way to act like a kid again and cleanse your crystals all at the same time. It is very effective for cleansing the crystals of energetic debris and imprints that have been gathered by previous healing sessions and handling of other people. The only down fall to sand cleansing is that is has a tendency to remove the polish off of tumbled and polished stones and can even scratch some of the softer crystals that we use.

Sand cleansing is using a nature element that most people would not think to use for a cleansing session. It is very effective in its purposes, and if used correctly will not harm your crystals in anyway. For a sand cleansing session you will need a small amount of sand, a water bottle of purified water and the crystal(s) you want to cleanse. Make sure you have enough sand though to bury all of the crystals completely as you do not want any spots being shown to the air surface.

Gently mist the sand down with your purified water bottle first before placing your crystal(s) in this. You want to make sure you moisten this and turn or sift this a few times. Once the sand becomes wet it will be harder to move but is necessary so you get all of the sand moistened. After this gently place your crystal(s) in the sand and make sure they are buried on all sides. Leave them there for 2 hours and gently move the sand away when removing them. Rinse them thoroughly to remove any tiny sand grains and pat them dry afterwards.

Fire Cleansing Of Crystals

Fire cleansing is a unique way to work with crystals cleansings. When you think of crystal cleansing, fire energy doesn’t always come to mind as a favorite, but it is a way of cleansing your crystals from energetic debris and imprints that can occur from previous healings or handling of the crystals. Fire energy is a natural element and can be effective, but also needs to be handled with care when using this cleansing method.

I do not normally recommend using fire cleansing for crystals for some of the most obvious reasons. Fire can burn! Not only yourself but also your crystals! But still this is a long and time old tradition that is still practiced in many parts of world as their first and foremost way of cleansing crystals.

Let me state again, fire can damage your crystals if not very very careful with this method. To start, you will need only your harder crystals. Do not try this on your softer crystals at all; as this can damage crystals in general, but when working with softer crystals this will harm them to a degree where you will not be able to use them again. Make sure you also have a long handled matchstick. Strike the match to ignite the fire and very quickly pass your crystal through the fire flame three times for this to be cleansed. Remember to be careful and not to get burned doing this cleansing method, as it can be tricky when you have never used it before.

Sound Vibrational Cleansing Of Crystals

Sound vibrational cleansing is a great way to incorporate the vibrational aspects of the healing from the crystal into the cleansing of this as well. Crystals need to be cleansed from their energetic debris and imprints from previous healing sessions or being handled by people. Why not work with a vibrational cleansing for a vibrational crystal!

Sound vibrational cleansing can be done with a variety of tools. Some examples of them are a tuning fork, drums, bells, Tibetan singing bowls, and Tibetan cymbals. These each put out a unique vibrational sound to cleanse all of the debris from within the crystals own vibrational field.

For sound vibration cleansing, you need to have the tool at hand you wish to use along with the crystal. If you are cleansing more than one crystal at a time you will need to use the tool of your choice more than once.

Make the sound activate with your tool, such as the Tibetan singing bowl. After your strike the bowl and continue the sound, place the crystal, holding this between your thumb and first finger, inside of the bowl for a few moments and then remove. If you are using something such as a tuning fork, bell, or drum, activate this sound and hold the crystal as close as you can to this for a few moments without disrupting the sound. For Tibetan cymbals, you will strike them together and then place the crystal in-between the cymbals for the sound cleansing to occur. After you have cleansed one crystal, do this process over again for each individual crystal you need to cleanse.

Solar Cleansing Of Crystals

Solar energy cleansing is an excellent way to cleanse your crystals with a nature element. The sun provides such a high vibrational output that they radiate to this in such a positive way.

The only down side to working with solar energy and cleansing of crystals is that they can fade the colors of your crystals, especially if they are left out there to long. I have seen a lot of people take their crystals outside and put them on a patio or garden table and say they are only going to leave them there for a short amount of time, and they then walk inside for something and completely forget about them. Now fading of the crystals can take some time to do, but it can happen, not to mention the crystals get extremely hot if left in the sun to long. A wonderful tip, if you wish to work with solar energy cleansing, is to make sure you are constantly aware of them for these reasons.

To use a solar energy cleansing, make sure you gently mist your crystals with purified water before placing them within the solar rays. I recommend placing them somewhere such as a sunny windowsill while you are in the room. If you wish to take them outside with you, another good tip is to keep a timer going like on a watch. Once the timer goes off, you will remember to take your crystals back inside.

Solar energy is a great way to cleanse your crystals, just be careful to remember that you want to cleanse them of their energetic debris and imprints, not fade their colors of have them overheat!

Water Cleansing Of Crystals

Water cleansing seems to be one of the easiest and quickest ways to work with crystals and cleansing formats. It can be accessed pretty much anywhere from tap water to purified bottled water and can be done in almost any area you can think of.

Water cleansing brings a nature element into the picture when working with crystals. Now it is not rain we are speaking of, but water in general. This can cleanse your crystals on an energetic level to make sure that no debris or energetic imprints are attached to the crystals from previous healing sessions or from them being handled. This is very important when working with crystals, not only for yourself, but for the benefit of those you work on too!

When using a water cleanse on crystals, you want to make sure if you are working with a harder crystal or a softer crystal. Harder crystals can be placed in a glass bowl with a small amount of sea salt and let them soak for 1 hour for a good cleanse. After this remove your crystal, gently pat this dry and properly dispose of the water.

Softer crystals can be damaged in water and sea salt if let for this amount of time. For softer crystals, it is best if you simply hold them in your hand and gently drench them with room temperature purified water. Gently pat them dry afterwards.

Either option you choose for your crystals, especially if you work on their hardness scale, will effectively cleanse all energetic imprints and debris from their vibrational fields and bring them back to their vibrant healing power from within.

Top Crystal Cleansing Techniques

Crystal cleansing is such an important part of crystal healing work that it cannot be overlooked. Crystal cleansing is a simple way of saying you are removing the energetic debris ad imprints from crystals that can collect on their energetic fields from healing sessions, people handling them and much more.

There are many different ways to cleanse crystals for healing, and I will discuss a few in this article with you. The most important thing I can tell you about cleansing crystals though is to work with the intention behind this and to do what resonates within your energy fields. There are also a few crystals out there that do not require to be cleansed, as they do not hold energy imprints and energetic debris. It is still a good tool to cleanse these though, as this can help purify the energy and make the crystals vibrational field feel so much more brighter when working with them.

Some of the top crystal cleansing sessions that resonate within the majority of people are smudge stick cleansing, water cleansing, solar energy, lunar energy, rain cleansing, sound vibrational cleansing, Mother Earth energy, sand cleansing, mirror energy cleansing, fire energy, and sage tea cleansing. Remember that solar energy, fire energy, and sand cleansing can damage any kind of crystals and fade them. For water types of cleansing; basic water cleansing, rain cleansing, and sage tea cleansing, make sure you use harder crystals for these types of cleansing. Softer crystals can become damaged with them, so a gentle mist or quick run under purified water works best.

Make sure to listen to your own intuition when working with your crystals and stones and to appreciate them for they are the ones who provide their vibrational output of healing.

Make Reiki Energy Objects With Every Day Items

Making energy objects with common every day items can be fun. You can make them from any energy form that you have access to and can send into an object.

The ones I have found the most useful are charging objects with Usui Reiki, Angelic Expressions Archangel Energy, and Protection Camouflage Reiki. Usui Reiki is a wonderful and general healing form that we can all use and have access to, especially with energy objects. Angelic Expressions is work with angels, their attributes and energy. Protection Camouflage Reiki is a great protection form, and when place in objects can offer protection to more then just running the energy. These forms I have had a personally profound energy experience using them this way, as well as have others who have worked with them and shared their feedback.

To make energy object, for any form not just the ones I suggested above, can be done very simply.

First you must decide on your object you wish to charge. Think about this and decide if this is going to be something you wear, carry, place in a home or office, have it around other people and just in general what this is going to be used for.
Second you must decide what you are going to charge the object with. What energy form are you wanting to use with this object and why. Get your intentions clear in your head before beginning.
Cleanse you object with water, sun, burying, sound vibrations or smudging.
After you have cleansed the object, take this in both hands, sit down in a chair and place your feet firmly on the ground.
Call upon and run the energy that you want to use. If the energy form has symbols, draw the appropriate symbol over the object and run the energy into this to begin its charge.
Make sure after you have charged your object that you are grateful for the energy that was provided, seal the charge closed with intention or visualization and break the connection of the charge.
Remember to re-charge the object as often as needed or recommended by the energy form.
You now have your energy object! Make sure you cleanse this appropriately depending on the object and energy form used.
