Inspirational Quote for the month.
“Sometimes your
joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of
your joy”. - Thich Nhat Hanh
Stone of the month.
For those
born in the month of March, your Birthstone is Aquamarine.
It is also one of the Star-sign stones for Aries and
Pisces.
This stone provides
emotional and intellectual stability, clarity of mind and inspiration. Aids in
self expression and calms the nerves. Helps banish fears, doubts and phobias.
Aquamarine is also known as a stone of courage. It is also known to harmonize
its surroundings and provide protection against pollutants. It has the ability
to bring unfinished business to a conclusion and clear blocked communications.
It is often used as a talisman against drowning.
Aquamarine
is a wonderful meditation crystal as it sharpens the intuition and
opens clairvoyance. This crystal will bring you to higher states of
consciousness and spiritual awareness.
Tips for using Crystals.
Have you considered having a crystal bath? One that I find
most exhilarating is a Hematite and Clear Quartz bath. Fill your bath with water
at your desired temperature and add 6 to 10 Hematite
tumbles and 3 to 6 Clear Quartz
tumbles. Hop in and lay back and relax, making sure of
course that you aren’t laying on top of one or more of the crystals. This can be
a bit uncomfortable. I find this bath especially invigorating after a hard day
of physical labor or to re-energize when I am feeling down. Often the energy
playing in the bath feels like thousands of little air bubbles coming through
the water: A most delightful sensation.
There are many other combinations to try. Why not experiment and
come up with your own! Of course, make sure that you only use hard crystals that
won’t be affected by immersion in water.
When you have finished be sure to rinse your crystals off and dry them
thoroughly.
The
Power and Magic of Crystals in the 21st Century.
When
looking at crystals, a lot of us see things of natural beauty and innate power.
Then there are those among us who see nothing but a rock, it may look pretty but
has no further value. They will then scoff at and deride the
knowledge of those of us who believe in the power and magic of Crystals and use
their physical and metaphysical properties to our advantage, These are the same
people who blindly extol the virtues and benefits of our modern day
technologies, with little to no thought of natures role in making these
technologies possible.
Yet, many of the wonders of our daily lives that we take for
granted owe their existence in some way to crystals and the mineralogical
kingdom. Here are just a few examples:-
Keeping
Time. In
order to keep our lives on time and punctual we have come to depend very heavily
on accurate time pieces. To do this most of our clocks and watches use Quartz movements. Until recently the world clock kept its time using a Quartz
movement. Today it uses Atomic decay as the measuring
device.
Our
Computers.
Imagine trying to operate in your modern lifestyle without one of these. Yet the
main driving component of your computer is the silicon chip. Admittedly these are
synthesized these days for uniformity and consistency, as Mother Nature doesn’t
make identical duplicates. But the very first one used in the prototypes were
natural pieces of silicon dioxide; Quartz.
Lasers.
At the core of our modern day miracle tools are Crystals, the two most commonly used are
Ruby and Emerald. The medical fraternity has come to
depend on these devises; which are used predominately in eye and cosmetic
surgery.
Imagine the modern day builder without his laser level, or the
speaker without his laser pointer.
Precision
Bearings.
Very fine tolerance technical tools depend on the crystal world to provide
extremely durable bearings. At the cheaper end of the scale are Quartz and Garnet through to the more expensive Ruby, Emerald, and Diamond.
There are a great many other examples that can be used to
demonstrate the use of crystals in our technologies and industry, but the short
list above will be satisfactory for this article.
Let’s
look at some other uses;
Mica is crushed up finely and
provides the shine in the best brands of lipstick. Lapis Lazuli is still used (ground up of
course) in some exclusive brands of eye shadow. It provides that deep
blue/purple colour, very popular in Egyptian times.
And of course a variety of stones are crushed and included in many
of today’s orthodox ointments, tinctures and
creams.
So why should it be surprising to these people when we talk of the
Healing and magical properties of
these same crystals, as we use them in our day to day life. If we go back to
Biblical times, the Breast Plate of the
High Priest was adorned with crystals selected for their peculiar energies
and properties.
The
Crown and Scepter of Royalty
are decorated with crystals chosen, not for their beauty (as beautiful as they
are), but for the energy and power they would
afford.
A very interesting carry over from times past is in our use of
jewellery. For example, Diamonds
(known as a girl’s best friend) are the most popular stone for engagement rings.
These were originally used because of their power or property to join or bind
one to the other. Gold bands were chosen as wedding rings as Gold carries the energy of and is a
symbol for fidelity.
With just these few examples you can see that Crystals play a vital role in our daily
lives, with more going on behind the scenes with crystals and gemstones than may
first be realized. So if we can utilize them so well in our technologies, why
shouldn’t we be able to use them to enhance our spiritual and healing powers?
Of course, a lot of us already realize that these are powerful
allies, to augment our spiritual lives and to assist in our
healing.
