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...

CRYSTALS: Buzzing Mookaite

QUESTION: Good morning...how should I interpet this reaction to some mooklite I have...I have 3 stones and when a hold 2 of them in my left hand (my receiving hand) and the other one in my right hand I get chills type feeling and have to set the stone down...it takes about 2-3 minutes for the feeling to go away...is this a postive reaction or what?

ANSWER: Thanks for your post. I am not sure what Mooklite is, but perhaps you meant the purple variety of Jasper, Mookaite? Regardless, if you're having a strong reaction to any crystal you hold, it definitely means that there is a strong vibrational exchange between your energy and the crystals'. Your aura is lacking in something that the crystal is emitting, so it is definitely a positive sign that you have these crystals with you!

As you probably heard many times, we are attracted to the crystals that we need. Work with these crystals for a few weeks. If it gets too overwhelming at any one time, just put them away until the next day. Make sure to clean them often a well because they are absorbing out any negativity in your aura that you do not want back!

CRYSTAL: Anxiety & Post-Surgery

QUESTION: I need help with the healing process and the anxiety I am having prior to the surgery. Do you have any suggestions for me as far as my crystals? I thought I was going to have to have a root canal done on my tooth but the fluorite did it's magic, once again!

ANSWER: While surgery would be my last resort for any type of healing, I am happy to suggest any crystals that will aid you :) I'm sure you have thought long and hard on this decision, and that it's the right decision for you :)

For the healing process, I would use Quartz. For anxiety, I would recommend Fluorite again. Fluorite seems to be a very important crystal for you! Fluorite will help to calm the nerves, it's also great for stomach/digestion issues. If you have Fluorite slabs, it's easy to place on this area, easy to hold and rub when you are feeling anxious.

CRYSTALS: Quartz Attraction

QUESTION: Is it normal to be attracted to only one type of crystal? So far I have only an interest in clear quartz and have been using it exclusively. Thank you.

ANSWER: Hi, clear Quartz is the most popular of the crystals. It is the most abundant type of crystal on earth and appeals to the most people, regardless of energy beliefs! It is not at all uncommon that you have a strong affinity with this crystal.

Quartz is the "master healing" crystal, used in all general energy healing. Quartz clusters are used to clean and charge other crystals. Quartz is known to expand our aura energies - if you have ever taken an aura photo in the Kirlian camera and held a piece of Quartz, your aura will be much brighter. Quartz is also very precise in the energy it emits, used in our wrist watches and even to keep Greenwich Mean Time!

Quartz also comes in many different and just as popular varieties like pink Rose Quartz, purple Amethyst, yellow Citrine, green Aventurine...

Thanks for your question,

Sheila :)
