Starting Your Crystal Journey - Part 3
Working With Your Crystals
Our crystals have been welcomed into the family, had a refreshing bath, were perhaps energetically cleansed if deemed necessary and now we are ready to begin working with them. As always, there are no hard and fast rules. Trust your intuition, take note of what you see, hear and feel. Oh and different crystals may communicate better with different methods. Like us, they are all individuals.
Crystals are more than just beautiful stones; they are energetic allies that can help us in many aspects of our lives. Getting to know your new crystal is an important step in unlocking its full potential. Here’s how you can interact and begin to build a meaningful relationship with your new crystal.
Meditation is a powerful way to bond with your crystal. Find a quiet space where you won’t be disturbed and hold your crystal in your hand or place it on a specific chakra. Close your eyes and take several deep breaths, allowing yourself to relax. As you meditate, focus on the energy of the crystal. Notice any sensations, thoughts, or emotions that arise. You may feel warmth, tingling, or even a sense of calm. Allow yourself to be fully present with your crystal, letting its energy guide your meditation.
Breathing exercises can deepen your connection with your crystal. Try a simple breathing technique:
Hold your crystal in your hand and take a deep breath in through your nose, imagining the breath pulling energy from the crystal into your body. Hold for a few seconds, then exhale through your mouth, releasing any negativity or tension. Repeat this process for a few minutes, focusing on the exchange of energy between you and your crystal.
It may sound unusual, but talking to your crystal is a wonderful way to form a bond. Hold your crystal close and speak to it as you would to a trusted friend. Share your hopes, dreams, and any fears you may have. This act of communication opens a channel between you and your crystal, allowing it to better understand and assist you on your journey. Feel free to keep a journal of your crystal experiences. It's great to be able to go back and see how your experience has developed over time.
You may wish to set your intention regarding what you need or wish your crystal to help with. Holding your crystal in your hands, close your eyes and take a few deep breaths. Focus on what you want to achieve with your new crystal. Whether it’s healing, protection, love, or abundance, clearly state your intention out loud or in your mind. This step aligns your energy with the crystal, creating a purposeful connection.
And finally...
One of the simplest ways to get to know your new crystal is to keep it close. Carry it in your pocket, wear it as jewelry, or place it under your pillow at night. The more time you spend with your crystal, the more attuned you become to its energy. Notice how it feels in different situations and how its presence influences your mood and emotions.
We can't wait to hear about your experiences with your crystals. By sharing with others we create a safe space for those that are beginning their own journey.
