Answer: Happy New Year, we wish you a prosperous year as well! That is great that you are a reiki healer and you will incorporate crystals into your practice to heal others!

It sounds like you need emotional balance. As you may know, the emotional center lies within our Solar Plexus chakra, which is a few inches above the navel. This is the area where we receive and process everyday occurrences. The way we react to these occurrences depends on how balanced the Solar Plexus chakra is. If this area is closed off, we may feel nothing, this often occurs in depressed people. If this area is blocked somehow, we will feel irrationally emotional, depending on the level of blockage. If this area if balanced, we will feel empathy within the situation, but we will not take it personally. Click here for a Chakra Tutorial.

Crystals for the Solar Plexus to balance the emotions include Moonstone, Tigers Eye and Calcite. Most yellow stones like Citrine, Aragonite and yellow Jasper correspond with balance for the Solar Plexus. Remember to clean, charge and program these crystals for emotional balance. You can then place these directly over the chakra, meditate with them or lie in a crystal grid with these stones.

To keep negative energies from seeping into your aura, we always recommend Obsidian. In our experience, we have found Rainbow Obsidian to be most effective in transmuting negative energy to positive, thus keeping other people's unwanted energies from affecting us. Depending on the situation, you may want to wear the stone - some people who can't have jewelry on outright, like nurses, will wear it as a pendant under their blouse, if you are performing active healing like Reiki, you can wear two Rainbow Obsidian bracelets, one on each wrist. If you have a healing space, you may want an Obsidian crystal ball or stone protecting the area.

The Metaphysics of ADHD



Question: Hi! I found you tutorials on YouTube and have visited your online store;) can you help me find stones that can assist with ADHD. My nephew has been diagnosed and I read in my crystal books some stones can help With that, but my local stone shop doesn't have any in store. Let me know if you have any and I can look at them on your site.

Thank you and blessings!



Answer: Hello and thank you for your email and for watching our Crystal Healing Videos on YouTube! Which stones did you read about in your book that aid in ADHD? If you remember or can list the stones via email, we can direct you to the links on our website. If it was just a general statement that stones can help in ADHD, we can give you a bit more insight metaphysically as well.

It is a common myth that all ADHD children are hyperactive and bouncing off the walls. In fact, there are children who do have this excess energy, but there are also children who sit quietly with their attention miles away. By determining your nephew's attention level, we can properly suggest crystal healing stones that will be beneficial for his focus.

Children who are hyperactive have too much physical energy, they are too grounded to the earth and everything they do is spontaneous and aggressive. They need to counteract this energy with high vibration, spiritual and calming stones like Moonstone, Rose Quartz and Amethyst

Moonstone for Calm
Amethyst for Spiritual Energy
Rose Quartz for Peace


 









Children who are lost in their own thoughts, or spaced out, have too much spiritual energy, their head is literally "in the clouds". For these children, you will want to give them grounding stones, ones that will connect them with this reality, like Red Jasper, Mochi Stones and Tigers Eye

Red Jasper for physical energy
Tigers Eye for empowerment

Mochi Balls for Grounding


These are a few sample stones that your nephew may be attracted to. If possible, you can give him a variety of crystals to experiment with and see which one he is drawn to. You can even show him the stones via the website on the computer and see his response.

For general concentration, Fluorite is a great crystal to help focus and calm the nerves.

If you need any additional information or specific answers to additional questions, please email us!

You may find these stones at Satin Crystals and jewelry form at I Dig Crystals. We can also customize a kit for you or if you don't see what you are looking for, just ask as we get in new crystals every month!

Sincerely,
Sheila Satin

Selenite & Smoky Quartz vs Cancer

Selenite Cell Regeneration Pendant




Question: Hi Sheila. A very dear friend has bee diagnosed with breast cancer and has a malignant lymph node under her arm. More tests are coming including a body scan. What stones would you recommend that would support her healing, including if chemotherapy? Thank you, I Appreciate it.

Selenite Therapy Stone

Answer: Hello, crystals that will support in your friends healing include Selenite and Smoky Quartz. Selenite is well known for vibrating with the energy of cell regeneration. Many cancer patients have found Selenite effective in their healing journeys whether through meditation, laying the stones over their affected area or wearing it in their aura.


Smoky quartz is an excellent crystal to counteract radiation, absorbing the unwanted energy within the stine rather than in the patient. These are the most popular stones i can recommend that have  been used for cancer healing, however your friend may find an affinity for other crystals during her recovery. Keep her spirits positive with your support.

Smoky Quartz Healing Earrings


Please remind her to program the crystals and constantly clean and charge their energies as they will be working hard during these intense times.

Thank You for writing and if have any other crystal healing questions I am happy to assist you.

Sincerely,
Sheila Satin

Double Terminated Quartz vs Herkimer Diamonds

Natural Herkimer Diamond



Herkimer Diamonds are double terminated Quartz crystals that have naturally formed and are found only in Herkimer, New York. The Mohawk Indians and other early settlers found these Herkimer diamonds in stream sediments and fields. They were amazed with these rare crystals and held them in high esteem.

Similar formations are found around the world, but can not be called true Herkimers. These are called double terminated Quartz and display this two sided crystal points, showing that little contact with the host rock was made during formation. You can also find Quartz crystals polished into double terminated stones for the same metaphysical energy the natural Herkimers provide - receiving and transmitting energy simultaneously.

Sliding Rocks of Death Valley


An interesting phenomena occurs in Racetrack Playa in Death Valley in which rocks, small to large, slide around mysteriously through the sands. 

Some of these rocks weigh several hundred pounds. That makes the question: "How do they move?" a very challenging one. 

The truth: No one knows for sure exactly how these rocks move - although a few people have come up with some pretty good explanations. The reason why their movement remains a mystery: No one has ever seen them in motion!

Let's learn how they are thought to move....

Affinity for Blue Sapphires






QuestionHi Sheila, I dunno if u would remember me, I'm one of Ann's & Sunny sir's students from Delhi. We'd met during the workshops as well.

How have u been? I keep reading or looking through your stuff.. Makes my heart swell with happiness at ur success.. :)

I had a question about blue sapphire. Ever since I was say about 15 yrs old I've wanted to wear a blue sapphire ring but my mom but her foot down and din't let me. Some time in sep the urge if I may call it so swept me again and one thing led to another I got hold of a small (1 C)  blue Sapphire oval and flat in shape. The moment I saw it I knew it was meant for me. I wore it for couple of days and it made me v efficient, de-cluttered my thoughts, just kept me in a happy state.. I wud even 4get I had stuck it to my body.

After testing some other stones I decided to pick it up. Something inside me told me that I should wear it in silver in my index or middle finger of my right hand. But then I thought y not get it in gold and may be throw in some diamonds as well.. Anyways as I was about to place the order for the ring to be set in gold with diamonds. I received a call from someone advising me not wear blue sapphire since it will do harm to my dad.

Now I don't understand Astrology but I know when a stone calls me. What r ur thoughts abt this funny fixation about sapphire? And diamonds!
Thanks for ur time..

Blue Sapphire Magnet Clasp Bracelet






AnswerHi, yes! I remember you. Thank you for writing. 


As for your affinity for Sapphire, it is not uncommon. Most people have a strong attraction to a few select crystals. For example, I really love Lepidolite and Labradorite. Every time I see them, I think how I must have them! These crystals are vibrating at a wavelength we are lacking. It is like putting two puzzle pieces together. Blue Sapphire is filling an imbalance in your own aura, or energy field, and that is why you are always drawn to it like a magnet. 

I am sure you have looked up the crystal healing properties of Blue Sapphire by now, but if not, here are a few of the metaphysical energies:

*meditating with blue sapphire helps to connect you with your purpose in this life
*helps to manifest your physical dreams and desires
*maintains the positive aspects in your life
*clears your mental path
*it is the stone of wisdom and knowledge
*corresponds to the crown, third eye and throat chakras

It seems you are attracted to durable, long lasting energies, as Diamond is the toughest of all stones and Sapphire the second hardest on Earth!

In the end, I would not question or dwell on this affinity, but enjoy it and allow the crystals to work with you for a happy and balanced life!

I do not know much about Astrology either, and therefore I do not worry about the astrological significance of crystals, but I have never heard of crystals harming another when used in a healing and well-intentioned manner.

Sincerely,
Sheila :)
