Crystal Work: Choosing Your Crystal

Most people will choose the crystal, which will best assist them in
the situation they need it for. Crystals are often used for clearing
your mind, helping with a physical problem, meditation, and charms
for protection for yourself or your home, for healing, for chakra
work, for stone elixirs, or for anything that seems suitable.

Select the crystal, which has the properties to help you. A list has
been provided in order to help you with choosing your crystal.

Or.....simply pick the stone that "calls" to you! First decide why
you are doing the crystal work. Is it for you or someone else? What
is the problem? Do you need to give or receive energy? What does it
require?

* Select the stone, which has the properties to help you.

*For energy, carry the stones with you, either in a little pouch
around your neck or in your pocket or pocketbook.

* For meditation, hold the stone in your hand or set it in front of
you. If in a meditation group, sit the crystal in the center of the
group for collective consciousness.

*For healing. In a full-scale crystal working, ask the stone for its
energies and utilize them. In healing, place the crystal on the part
of the body where you need it. For Chakra and Aura work, choose
crystals of the appropriate color and properties. Place the stone on
the afflicted area and feel it's energies work as it re-balances the
energy centers. You can hold the stone in your receptive hand to
absorb the healing energies. At the end of the process, the stone is
probably depleted of much of its energy. Thank your crystal and then
cleanse it. Remember, most stones will retain these negative energies.

* For crystal elixirs: place the stone in a bottle and fill the
bottle with distilled water, Place it in the sun/moon for 24-48
hours, then use the water as a topical spritzer or rub. The water
is "energetically charged" by this process.
