Connecting with Crystal Energy.

Apache Tear Obsidian


Question: Hello Sheila, I've recently bought a pack of 20 apache tear smal tumbled stones. Well, I have 2 questions for a matter. 1st, I was tottaly lost when i got hold of the apache tears, usually, when I get hold of a new gemstone I figure out its essence, qualities, "spirit" or "personality", and how they "fit in me" i.e. how should I treat and use and regard them, but with the apache tears I got totally clueless... Is there a link you can give me to know more about this gemstone (I´ve read it's nearly the best for grief realiving and healing)?


Snow Quartz Cluster


The second: since I started working with and knowing gemstones, they appeared like out from nowhere and being described at ads or comments by sellers like something I could use for being a better person, healthier in every sense [....] in one sentence it's the same me with a burden coming from wherever you can imagine . The bottom line is... can stones help me? should I enphasize on any kind of stone? or in any bridges I should build towards the stones I already possess? (I have a 9 pound milky quarz with large incrustations of black tourmaline on my bed table BTW)... I dont know, whatever word you can give me.

Answer: Thank you for your email. In addition to the specialized property of Apache Tears being for grieving, forgiveness and mourning, they are a type of a Obsidian. You will find a lot of information on Obsidian online and can also check out our page at http://www.idigcrystals.com/servlet/the-template/obsidian/Page.

Crystals can definitely aid you in your life's path. If you are looking for more clarity, I would suggest you working with white stones like Quartz (as you already have) or Howlite or White Agate. If you do meditations, it would help you to hold these stones. If you do not, you may do layouts, placing them at your Crown or Third Eye chakras. You may also want to keep them in your aura at all times, in your pocket or wearing as jewelry. Remember to clean, charge and program the crystals you are working with to make them more effective and align your intentions with your healing aid.

Sincerely,
Sheila Satin

The serenity of Hemimorphite.

















Question: I was wondering if you could please help me with picking a crystal for my mom that she can put in her little secret place of meditation or her place of peace. I have gotten her rose quarts, and other one i cant think off the top of my head, sorry! I was thinking about getting her the HEMIMORPHITE. Just a healing crystal she can balance herself and relieve anxiety. Thank you!

Answer: Hemimorphite sounds like a great stone for your mother. Not only is it a peaceful blue color, it helps to let go of ego and enjoy the life around us. I myself like to wear a hemimorphite pendant for this energy! Although we are out of Hemimorphite jewelry at the moment, we do have 7 clusters left: http://www.satincrystals.com/servlet/the-SEARCH-BY-CRYSTAL-TYPE-cln-Hemimorphite/Categories. These are small enough to place, hold and meditate with.


If you need any other help, please do email us back at info@satincrystals.com.

Speaking clearly with Aquamarine


QUESTION: Hello, i watched your videos about crystal, and i want to ask you for help, as you mention in your video that id you can not choose your crystal, you can ask a crystal healer, i have problem with stuttering, i want to ask you, is there is any stone or a healing method i can use for this issues, and if you have something in your web, would you please give the link of it. Thank you.


ANSWER:  Hi, thank you for visiting our site and watching our videos. For your stuttering, we suggest you use Aquamarine. This is a great stone to balance the throat chakra, which is in charge of communications, plus it is a crystal that will aid in patience. Working with Aquamarine at your throat over time will give you the confidence and patience to express yourself more fluently. If Aquamarine does not vibe with your energies, try any other light blue stones like Angelite, Turquoise or Apatite. 

If you have the loose stones, place them right at the throat when lying down or keep them in your aura during the day. If you like to wear jewelry, wearing an Aquamarine necklace or pendant will be very beneficial, especially after you have clean, charged and programmed it. This way it is always ready to remind you to slow down and allow the energies of the throat to flow naturally. 

Here are some direct links for you:

Properly Using Tuning Forks

QUESTION: Hi Sheila, My point set and tuning forks arrived last week... much to my excitement.

I am anxious to use them. I do have question re. the tuning forks. Do you just hold them close to the chakra plates?  Once they touch the plates, they stop vibrating. Thanks for your help.


ANSWER: I am glad to hear that everything arrived safely. 

To use the tuning forks properly, you will want to hold ONLY the stem. Do not touch the forks or the vibration will stop. The harder you strike the fork, the longer the vibration. I would suggest hitting it against a rubber surface like a hockey puck or rubber striking stick. Once on the chakra plates, they should vibrate for a while!

Let me know how it goes!

Sincerely, 
Sheila Satin
