It's All Crystalline

When I started studying with crystals it was by happenstance. There were some candles lit, and between them, neatly placed on the fireplace mantle, were several rocks of petrified wood I had gathered from my trip through the Southwest desert. 

I felt so full of joy seeing the candles lit and my favorite stones arranged, that I threw out my arms as if to hug and professed my love. "I love you." And to my shock and surprise, I was immediately gifted back that same love and joy. I stood back staring at the mantle as if it was a magician's trick. But how could it have, since I was the only one there, and I certainly was no magician. 

It's been thirty years since that wonderful day, and since then, I have learned many more secrets of the crystal world. 

Recently I learned that six sided crystals are water fossils. Petrified water, to be more specific. No. There is no hard evidence for that statement, it is just something I seem to know. The most important thing I have to relay about crystals is their high vibration and the world within them. 

Anyone can work with crystals. they augment energy, body energy of a healer; water energy in a glass, air energy in a room, plant energy in soil, and they focus fire energy of the sun. Given the right crystal, and the right pitch, they will glow and light up a room if there are enough. There are clear "male" crystals and cloudy "female" crystals. Male crystals are great for pushing energy out, augmenting the energy. Female crystals are best for absorbing energies, pulling energy in. So if I had an ache in my leg, I could either move the energy up and down the channel with a male crystal, or I could lay a female crystal next to or on the leg and it would absorb the ache, for example.

But there is more to crystals that healing, cleaning and lighting, crystals have doorways and gateways. A small crystal can be used for scrying, which is a form of seeing, like in crystal ball gazing. But even more than that, crystals are, or can be really huge, as we know from the crystal cave in northern Mexico. 

And if you were to use your imagination, a very large crystal can be accessed in your mind. In your dreams. And after seeing such a large and tall crystal appear in front of you, the next thing to do is to walk around it. And as you walk around this crystal that is as wide as a car and as tall at a house, you are looking for a door, for a handle, for a lock and key. You are looking for any way in. Of course, it's not that difficult, all that needs to happen is to "ask" for the door to appear and open. 

And then you walk in. You step into the world of the crystal garden. Inside is whatever your garden is. Whatever your imagination will let your garden be. A desert? Your backyard, or a lush forest with waterfalls and grass and fruit trees? However you imagine it, a crystal offers a garden to everyone on the planet. Afterall, our lovely Mother Earth is a crystal herself, and so the garden is her garden, in side of you.

Love and Joy to you,
