Crystals

   Crystals have been used throughout history as tools for divination and healing. They have been revered and valued by numerous civilization such as the Mayans and ancient Egyptians, and their use has even been recorded in the Iron Ages. They can activate, enhance and amplify all that they connect with, when used with conscious intent and knowledge. Each crystal is unique, carrying its own particular theme and frequency and each individual will respond differently to the crystal. Crystals themselves are literally hundreds of millions of years old, born from deep within the Earth herself. some quartz crystals are estimated to be about 450 million years old and thought to have taken 200-300 thousand years to form. Crystals is a word that is readily understood in many languages- it is a derivative of cryatallos which is Greek for ice. The ancients use to think that , due to its glass-like appearance, quartz crystal was water which had frozen solid and called it frozen water from heaven or solidified light. Theophrastus, wrote about the medicinal values of gems in the third century B.C. and Plinys work of the first century greatly influenced medieval European thought on the healing properties of crystals. North American Indians carry medicine pouches and carve fetish animals out of indigenous stones.

What is a Crystal?

   Crystals are minerals which naturally form in the Earth and given the right environment can form into spectacular natural geometric shapes. The gemological definition of a crystal is a mineral which has a regular atomic structure causing it to form in a regular geometric shape with flat faces..A Quartz crystal forms naturally into a six -sided prism with a pointed termination made up of six triangular faces. Crystals is a term generally applied to all sorts of minerals, some of which, however, may not be crystals at all- for example, obsidian is a naturally occurring volcanic glass and has no regular atomic structure, it is therefore not possible for obsidian crystals to form. Although usually referred to as crystal healers, most therapists will also use non-crystalline minerals-typical examples are obsidian, amber and coral. These minerals have still formed within, or on the surface of, the Earth and are a part of the mineral realm. Although they do not have the internal regular atomic structure of a true crystal, they nonetheless share a resonance with their crystal counterparts and are equally respected and considered to have divinatory and healing properties.

The Powers of Crystals

Crystals are examples of physical matter arranged in perfect symmetry, due to the regular internal and external structures. They are therefore considered to be patterns of perfection which inspire balance and total alignment in surrounding energy fields. They are also inspirational- in the same way that a beautiful landscape or moving piece of music can raise the spirits and open ones heart, gazing upon the natural beauty of crystals can open the consciousness to a wider perspective. some healers feel that the color of a crystal explains its healing and divinatory properties and may correspond it with the traditional Chakra colors.

Why Use Crystals

Crystals are tools which can help you focus when tuning into the healing vibration. There are many possible explanations for their healing powers. They contain patterns of perfection and symmetry within their crystalline structure these patterns can than be emulated by the energy system. it is little like the way a tuning fork may be used to give an example of the right note- a person finds it easier to sing in tune when guided by an experienced singer with perfect pitch. in the same way,crystals give us a template of perfection to aspire to. How Does it Work No healer or crystal heals anyone! The true healing process takes place within the person themselves. In other words, all healing is a form of self-healing. However, the crystal and the healer act as catalysts to activate this process. it is as if they act as a temporary scaffolding system to help jump start the patients own healing. The crystals can also act as points of focus, shaping the universal healing energy to make it more accessible to both patient and healer.
