CRYSTALS: beginners imagination


QUESTION: Sheila, I have read that if you hold a crystal you can feel heat, or vibration,etc. I have only once felt anything. What can I do to be more in tune with the crystals physically? Does lack of feeling these things negatively affect the healing power? Thanks.

ANSWER: Thanks for your question. This is a common question for beginners. Even for those like me, who have been working with crystals for years, there are certain stones that I will not be able to feel the energies.
What I suggest is imagine. After all, you really are feeling the energies, but you may not know it! It may the a slight pulse in the vein, a breeze through your hair, a subtle emotion. Imagine that anything you are feeling is the energy of the crystal. This is how you'll come to trust in your intuition (your instincts). Don't doubt yourself.

If you think you don't feel anything; change your thinking.

Everything is not physical, you may be feeling it subconsciously. After all, we are working with energies beyond the physical realm here, so most of us are not going to be open to such phenomenons. Practice and experience will get you connected. I would suggest having a couple of regular crystals always nearby. Whatever is convenient for you, have them somewhere you can see and pick up easily - in your car door, on your desk, your bedstand, your sink...These will become your "teaching crystals"...

Read up on the properties of these crystals and choose which one property you want to program for each crystal. For example, if Quatz is one of your teaching crystals, you can program it for "clarifying your mind in chaotic circumstances"...then, when such circumstances comes up, hold the Quartz and imagine that your mind is clearing up.
Before long, natural energies will take over imagination...
