The Healing Power of Crystals

Everyone’s heard of magic wands in fairy tales, but are you aware the very magic within that wand is available to all in reality?

I am talking about crystals and their healing properties.

Wands were considered magic because of the crystals they were constructed of, usually clear quartz; the same clear quartz used in watches to help them keep an accurate time. All crystals omit a vibrational frequency which may be difficult to detect, but is certainly there and can be tuned in to intuitively.

Ten years ago, I took a course called The Healing Power of Crystals and I am beginning to re-acquaint myself with them again. I had a massage last week. The therapist placed a purple quartz in my drinking water, and the water felt energised!

I always have a small collection of crystals in my home, and find I am drawn to different ones at different times. I have a large chrysocolla sculpture, but recently find myself attracted to rose quartz. When I am around amethyst sculptures, I find them mesmerising and inspiring, but I can become heady if I stay in their presence for too long!

Experiment with crystals and see what works for you. Meditating whilst holding a crystal, wearing jewellery made of the crystal or having some in your home, or in your bag or pocket, can help develop and promote their associated quality in your life.

Here is a brief guide to ten of my favourite gemstones and their associations:

1. ROSE QUARTZ - If you want more LOVE in your life or to HEAL past hurts and current conflicts

3. TURQUOISE - Spiritual development, strength, GROUNDING

4. CLEAR QUARTZ - Energy diagnosis, universal crystal, CLARITY

5. OPAL - CREATIVITY, inspiration, imagination

6. MOONSTONE – develop routine, achieve destiny, CALMING children, settling babies

7. CHRYSOCOLLA - strength, balance, HARMONY, grounding, purification.

8. HEMATITE - mental stability, GROUNDING

9. EMERALD - Loyalty, sensitivity, harmony, tranquillity, MEMORY IMPROVEMENT, mental clarity
