CRYSTALS: Protect Healer

QUESTION: Sheila, I hope maybe you or your Mom may have an answer for this: I use energy to help heal myself and others around me. Many times, the healings are at a time when I don't have any crystals on me, and usually distance healings. I don't carry crystals all the time, however I do completely believe in their individual healing properties. My situation is that after a healing, occaisionally I will be very tired and/or ill for a few hours. I know that, as a young person, I was always an empathetic being and emotions and physical issues of others seem to transfer to me. I try to set my intention that, when healing, the healing will be focused and that I will not absorb any of the energy that is not beneficial to me, however, am I missing a step?

Is there a mantra/meditation I should use prior to healing?

Thank you so much for all that you do and give.

ANSWER: Thanks for your question. I felt the same way as you when I first started doing healing sessions for others. I also set my intention, but I forgot to wear my Rainbow Obsidian for protection and i was feeling weak for several days afterwards. After I started to wear my Rainbow Obsidian for protection I felt energized and ready to go! So personally I like to use crystals for healing. I have not tried to do healings just with my thoughts, but if your mind is strong enough of course all you need is your positive intentions. That is the ideal situation. However, if we are not as strong in our own minds, we use the energy of crystals to direct our intentions, thus strengthening our resolve and protective energies around us.

I am sure there are many mantras or protective thoughts you can say when you are without crystals, but for me personally I have not tried them, so I would not be able to advise you in these matters. For me it is easier to work with crystals as it combines the physical and non-physical aspects of energy in healing.

You are more than welcome to email my mother as she also teaches Reiki and other non-crystal healing methods that she may have better advice for you!

Sincerely,
Sheila Satin

ANN'S ANSWER: Hello, I have been telling the students that the mind is the most powerful thing above and beyond everything else. The only tricky part is how to utilize our mind to it fullest. Human is bounded with a physical limitation since most of us still vibrate at the 3rd dimension frequency and some of us are in and out from 3rd dimension to 4th dimension. A few of us are living in the 4th dimension (such as Saints, Yogis etc..)

Good news is that since we are going through "the shift" and starting to connect more with the high vibration, we can use more of our mind to control our bodies much better if we choose to do so.

In conclusion, to be on the safe side, I would recommend seeking help from crystals for protection or other tools that produce the high energy.

Matras and medition are certainly help clearing the negative energy. I myself do not use any mantras but loving heart will do!

I will keep you on our mailing list. I conduct a regular guided meditation on Tuesday at 7:00pm at my condo in Yorba Linda, California. You are welcome to join us if you get a chance. I teach classes at home once in a while and will keep you informed.

Love,

CRYSTALS: Bites

QUESTION: I am hoping you can advise me on what crystal to use. I have always used crystals for healing, mental and physical. This time I am battling to find the right crystal. I was bitten by something while barefoot during a crystal grid/medicine wheel dedication. I have a large blister type formation on my ankle. I have been placing amber on the wound at night. It is not helping. This is the first time that I have not been successful.

Can you advise what type of crystal to use?

Kind Regards.

ANSWER: Thank you for your message. For bites, stings and sores, we highly recommend Apache Tears. Place this crystal over the bite after you have clean, charged and programmed it for your specific purpose. If you want to enhance the healing, we would also recommend you use Quartz and Serpentine combined with the Apache tears. Let us know how it goes!

CRYSTALS: Healing Circles

QUESTION: Hello Sheila Satin, I'm going to a healing circle at the end of March to celebrate the full moon. I wanted to bring a stone to the group as a gift.What stone would be the best to support the healing. Thank you.

ANSWER: Hello, most crystals are good for healing circles, if there is something specific you want to accomplish during the circle, we can give you a specific recommendation. Otherwise, I would recommend Amethyst, the spiritual stone or Moonstone which gives us the energy of the Moon Goddess.

We do have spheres, hearts, eggs, clusters, towers and Merkabas in these two crystals: http://stores.ebay.com/satincrystals and more in our retail store that are not online yet, so just ask!

Sincerely,

CRYSTALS: Amber Cleaning

QUESTION: hi satin,i have a question about AMBER BRACELET?? what are good things to wear it and Cleaning, Charging the amber bracelet?? it same as crystal ?? many thanks


ANSWER: HI, thanks for your question, yes, you can treat Amber like you would your crystal bracelets. I would avoid water when cleaning jewelry as the cords will wear down more quickly in water. I would use another method that is not hard on the cord or findings like dry brown rice, sage or placing it on a large crystal cluster.

CRYSTALS: Clashing

Question: Do different crystal energies clash with each other or is it the programming of them that clash? I don’t think my rose quartz and my jade & quartz ring liked each other. I had the rose quartz necklace on and when I put on the ring, the ring felt sooo heavy! When I put the plain moss agate ring on, there was balance.



Answer: It's the programming of the crystals that can clash. It's the same energies that mess up our chakras. It's that energy of doubt and confusion that makes us unfocused. This usually does not happen, but in your case, I would suggest wearing one crystal at a time or programming the crystals towards a similar goal. For example, if you were programming your Rose Quartz for opening your Heart Chakra, you'll want to program your Jade ring to bring you luck in love. Or something along those lines!

CRYSTALS: Radiation, Immune, Digestion

QUESTION: Hi Sheila! Hope you are doing well! I was looking thru your website tonight at all the beautiful crystals. I would like to get a crystal to put on my desk at work, since i work at the computer most of the day i'd like to get something that protects from radiation. What would be a good crystal to get?

Also i wondered if you could recommend some good crystals for strengthening the immune system or digestive system in particular. When i had Lyme disease a few years ago i was on a ton of antibiotics. Since then I have developed a lot of food allergies, and have a lot of trouble digesting food. I take probiotics and enzymes but am still struggling and have to really restrict the foods that i eat. It's been several years since i was able to eat a normal diet, and i wonder if there are crystals that would help my digestive system balance out and return to being healthy again?

ANSWER: Hi, for protection against radiation, I use Lepidolite, but other stones that are popular for radiation absorption are Smoky Quartz, Black Tourmaline and clear Quartz!

For the immune system, use Amethyst. You can wear it, drink as an elixir, put it around your bed as a crystal grid, whatever method you prefer!

For your digestive system I recommend Fluorite. You can place Fluorite slabs on your stomach, keep tumbled stones in your pockets, make a drink elixir or again, surround your space with these crystals!

Let me know if you need any of these crystals in any particular form. For the desk you should have a small cluster or pyramid. For the immune and digestion I'd recommend tumbled stones.
