Using Quartz Crystals for various applications

So as I have previously stated, I would at some point go into using crystals.

This time it is the use of quartz crystals. Ahhh, sounds so new age doesn't it?

But believe me, the use and various applications of these beautiful gifts of our Earth go far back in time.

And if we truly knew the truth of it, farther back than man was supposed to be here on this planet.

Any way, there are many really good books out there on the subject, and there are some really odd books. But the fun of it is doing the work of finding what appeals to you.

I do suggest that if you are planning to buy only one good book, you find one at a

good New Age book shop that also sells crystals, and hopefully has access to someone with some good basic knowledge of crystals, and will not try to sell you some overpriced crystal that is not right for you to use.

So for your own sake, I am going to give you some pointers in selecting one or more crystals to start with.

Now are you right or left handed? If right handed use your left hand, this is your recieving hand. If left handed use the right hand, it is your recieving hand.

Energy flows out the dominant hand, inwards on the other hand. Both hands have their energetic functions as follows: information comes in via touch, subtle energy readings are picked up by the non-dominant hand.

Look through a group of crystals, sometimes they are behind glass. Dealers hate to see me coming if they have dealt with me before. I have to hold a crystal, and if they have them locked up so be it. I am a potential customer. Though usually locked up means expensive, and not necessarily what you need. I am always very polite, and try not to make a big deal out of the process, for me it goes fast now as I have had practice over the years.

Pick out one or two that you are drawn to. Hold one in your recieving hand. How does it feel, does it start to warm to your touch, or are you still feeling a deep cold, or getting a off feeling. Put it down and start with another one.

What you are looking for is one with a warmth, and some response to it in your brain, but not a headache. A slight pressure feeling is ok, but not too much, or a instant spasmic

frontal headache. Alwasy just put one down when it starts, and start over. It could take a while, don't let anyone rush you on this.

Eventually one will feel good, trust me on this, there will always be one that you can work with. And if you do it often enough, you will become more proficient at it for yourself.

I can usually pick out ones for others, though I do prefer to teach people to find their own, I won't always be there. Life is like that, but if you come to know the other persons energy you can hone in on one for them also.

But the work is not done there.

After you take it home, you need to clear it. That will help improve it's transmission and your reception of it's frequencies. Quartz can retain some irratic imprints from being "harvested" and not in a nice way. It is cut apart from it's cluster, sometimes polished to make it more appealing, and so on. Lots of people handle them, some of them maybe not so ethical.

In a glass bowl, I usually use spring water, with a pinch of sea salt, and soak the crystal overnight. In the morning, I rinse it under cold running water , but since I have untreated water sources, I do not worry about chlorine. If you do, then dump the soak water, rinse with spring water, dump, repeat. Do this three times.

Put the crystal on a clean cloth and let dry. Then let it sit in some sunshine in a windowsill if possible. Every now and then I put all of my crystals in the sunshine for a few hours.

This gives them frequency strength. So now there are several uses for crystals.

You can use one is a pitcher of clean filtered water to give the water life, as water molecules will form active and amazingly beautiful forms with it's atoms in response to a quartz crystal. And be very electrically bio-active in the human body. Amp up the exchange of negative and positive charges between atomic formations, kind of like a dance of ions and cations. This will help your body to function in an improved fashion. Free radicals will be removed via the lymphatic, respiratory and excretory systems. Uptake of nutrients will be improved, digestion will be improved and so on.

Another use, that I have mentioned before is to use a crystal to fix or hold a pattern. For a grid worker who is trying to maintain a high frequency hold on a certain geological point on Earth this would be an anchor to the frequency upkeep. And for this, we will go into that in depth later in another post.

OK, so you are wanting to keep the frequency up in your home, for your own personal mental health, or protection, or just as your sanctuary - haven, free of negative vibes.

OR you want to wear or carrying that crystal for the same reasons.

First you have to program your crystal. You must hold it in your non-dominant hand, and fixed it your mind what it is the crystal is going to be transmitting.

You need to be seeing this in your mind, are you sitting in your house smiling, relaxed at peace? Feel that feeling, and let that energy flow into the crystal through your hand.

Feel it warm up as you are doing this. It will take at least ten minutes to fix this.

Quartz holds energetic patterns, including subtle energy patterns from the human brain. Piso-electric charges. Believe this. Once you doubt yourself, then you put doubt into the crystal. All emotions and feelings carry charges with them into our energy fields, so trying to charge up a crystal if you think it is dumb, well enough said. Dumb is as dumb does.

Now if you are looking to transmit protection for someone else, then use a photo of that person. See them well and smiling, healthy and whole. Do this same as you would for yourself. At least ten minutes. I had amazing luck with this when my son-in -law was in Iraq, he survived a murder attempt and a IED explosion that killed other men in his transport. He was injured but he was not killed, nor did he lose a limb. I did not quite know how to charge the crystal to protect him in other ways, and I look back now on it as perhaps interfering with his homework in that regard anyway.

Now you will have to have a spot to put your crystal. Somewhere you see it everyday. And put it in a dish, with either dirt(not potting soil) outside dirt, but has to be clean.

Or beach sand, also has to be clean. Deep enough the crystal sits upright. If you are sending protecting energy, use that photo of the person you are protecting, or your house, pet, etc.

For maintainance of the charge you just put into it, then once a month

to keep it strong. It will go longer, but the very minimum is three months. Don't let it collect dust, use a feather to brush it off. If anyone touches it, then you gotta go all the back to cleansing. However, you can smudge it and then recharge it as described.

A sage smudge stick or loose sage, smoking enough to hold your crystal in the smoke for two to three minutes will clear the other persons imprint. You may have to either

keep reminding people not to touch in your household, or put a little sign right near the crystal, something like"Don't Touch, Crystal at Work" try not to be nasty about it, just firm.

In the next part of this dissertation, I will go into other uses for quartz crystals. Mind you there are more than just quartz crystals out there and different uses for them also. And lots of books on that whole subject. Check out Gem and Mineral shows, Pyschic Fairs, could be you will run into some old hands on the very big subject of gemstone healing.

I will also give some ideas for wrapping your crystal if you want to wear it around your neck. Simple, but hopefully helpful. Or how to keep it safe from outside influences while you are carrying it.

Till next time........
