“You know the world is a magical place when Mother Earth grows her own jewelry.”

I am intrigued by the power of crystals. I wear rose quartz jewelry most every day because someone told me that it would help to protect my energy. I find when I wear it, that I feel less tired when I’m around a lot of people.

I feel tired and drained when I am around people because I am an empath. An empath is someone who feels more empathy than the average person and is also extremely aware of the emotions of people around them. (More to come on empaths in an upcoming blog.)

People who are empaths can really benefit from protection crystals. They help them manage the emotions that they unconsciously pick up from others. There are certain protector stones (rose quartz being one of them) that help dispel negative energies and they also help to keep the wearer safe from physical harm.

You don’t have to be an empath to experience the positive affects of crystals. Everyone can enjoy their protection and many other wonderful benefits!

Cleansing and charging your crystals

It is important to cleanse and charge your crystals. Once a month should be fine, unless you find that they start to feel heavy or seem to lose some of their luster before that. You definitely want to cleanse a new crystal because it could be holding someone else’s negative energy. You should also cleanse jewelry containing crystals as well.

Cleansing your crystal:

Use Sea Salt: This should be okay for most crystals, unless they are especially porous stones. Put your crystals in a bowl of water and add 1 tablespoon of sea salt, rock salt or table salt. Let them sit in the bowl overnight.

Under running water: You can also put the crystal under running water to cleanse it. Picture it surrounded by white light while you are letting the water run over it.

charging your crystal:

Crystals get there power once they have been programmed by you and the best time to do this is right after they have been cleansed. Stand with the crystal in your left hand in natural light, either outside or by a window. Then say out loud, “I dedicate this crystal to the highest good. I ask that it be used in light and love.” Then program the crystal for a specific use.

Think about what you would like it to help you achieve. Would you like to be kinder to yourself? Do you need help getting a new job? Protecting your energy? Guidance about something? While still holding the crystal in your left hand, imagine and feel what it would be like to achieve that intention. Once you have envisioned the intention of the crystal, say out loud, “I dedicate this crystal for (your purpose).”

I hope that I have peaked your interest and that you are excited to learn more about the wonderful world of crystals. People have been using them since ancient times and I think that they are a wonderful avenue of self care. These three stones are only the beginning for me. I plan on learning the benefits of other crystals as well. When I do, I will definitely share what I learn with you. Take care and I wish you light and love as you embark on your new journey with crystals!
