How to keep your crystals fresh and clean for optimal healing

Sometimes a stone or crystal you are strongly drawn to doesn't feel good, or a stone that felt good previously doesn't feel good any longer. The stone or crystal may need to be cleared. Clearing is necessary before using any stone for healing. The clearer the energy of a healing stone, the more powerful it is. Crystals and healing gemstones need to be cleared as soon as they are purchased as well as clearing after every healing. A cleared, ready crystal feels positive and bright, tingly and cold to the touch. A crystal that needs clearing may feel hot, heavy or drained. There are a number of ways to effectively clear crystals and gemstones.

Sea Salt

Obsidian Healing Crystal Charger

Sea salt is the most traditional purifying agent in crystal healing. It dispels any sort of disease and negativity, and is a physical and psychic disinfectant. Sea salt is highly recommended for the initial cleansing of a new healing stone and for any time a stone is overloaded with negative energy. Salt can be mixed with water or used dry. To use salt water, mix a tablespoon of sea salt in a glass or ceramic cup of cold water. Do not use plastic or metal containers. Place the stones in the solution and allow them to soak overnight. To use dry salt, place the sea salt in a glass or non-plastic container and bury the crystals with the points facing downward into the salt. Again, leave overnight. Sometimes a stone may take longer to clear, especially if it has been used in a deep, intense healing. If this is the case, leave another day or two in the sea salt. When clearing gemstone necklaces it is best to use the dry sea salt method. Be sure to use sea salt only, table salt contains aluminum and other chemicals. For those who live by the ocean, salt water can be brought from the beach in a jar, or gently wash them directly in the ocean.

Moonlight

Moonlight is another way of clearing your gemstones. Simply place outside from the Full to the New Moon. The amount of time used varies with the sensitivity of the healer and the amount of material from which the stone needs cleansing. Try hanging your gemstone necklaces in a tree where the moonlight can cleanse them.

Now your healing crystal gemstones are ready to heal anew!

CRYSTALS: Chakra Wand

QUESTION: Hi Sheila,Praise the Lord! Recently I have acquired this fantastic chakra wand. As you can see it is powerful and has a lot of energy flowing through it. When I first got it I cleansed it in warm sea salt water and laid it in the sun for a few hours. That evening I laid the stone near my bed on the nightstand and "WOW" what dreams did I have about crystals, people, places and things. The wand was talking to me in my sleep. I began to realize I was traveling to distant places and seeing unfamiliar faces and decided to seek a professional for help before I begin to work with it. Can you help me understand what I’m dealing with? Please advise.

ANSWER: Hi, thanks for your question. It sounds like you have a very deep connection with this chakra wand and it is helping to open you to the spiritual world. First, you have nothing to fear. Opening of your chakras and connecting to the Higher Realms is what the wand is meant to do. Some people will feel this connection more strongly than others. In your case, you fortunate in having this easy access to the higher vibrations that the wand is emitting.

You will do great work with your wand, whether on yourself or others. Make sure that you are always protected by keeping Obsidian on or near you when doing work on others. Also, be sure to ground yourself if you are working with the wand. It seems that the wand is taking you for many astral travels and it could be difficult to get back grounded to earth reality without the help of crystals like Obsidian, Tigers Eye, Jasper, etc...You will want to mentally call all your bodies - spiritual, mental, emotional - to reunite with your physical body whenever you are through working with your wand so that you are balanced as you go about your daily routines.

If you have any additional questions regarding your wand or any other crystal healing questions, please do email me at sheila@idigcrystals.com

Sincerely,
Sheila Satin :)
