Science has proven that matter is 99.9% empty space. And what makes up this empty space: energy. Energy is everything, and everything is energy. You, the chair you’re sitting on, the phone you’re holding, and the crystals you know and love – all of it is vibrating energy.
Just like everything else in the universe, we each have our own unique vibrational frequency. People with higher vibrations radiate kindness, love, peace, and compassion, whereas people with lower vibrations experience more low-vibe emotions like jealousy, anxiety, anger, or fear.
Whatever frequency you’re at, as a human, your vibration is very unstable and very easily influenced. It changes constantly as we’re exposed to other people, social media, the news, traffic, the weather, good news, bad news, our own memories, etc.
Crystals, on the other hand, have a super stable energy frequency that doesn’t change. Why? They’re made up of a fixed, regularly repeating, perfect geometric pattern of molecules. And they maintain their perfect stability with no effort. Exactly the opposite of our constantly changing, non-stable human nature.
So why does the stability of a crystal matter? Well, more stable energy = more powerful energy. And powerful energy can influence the energies around it. This is why crystals can so profoundly influence our unstable (less powerful) energy.
All matter vibrates at different vibrational frequencies. This vibration is called a Dominant Oscillatory Rate or DOR. As humans we are made up of trillions of DORs as each cell in our body vibrates at its own DOR. Crystals on the other hand only have one DOR.
Choosing a Crystal
Selecting a crystal is a sacred and special process. While understanding a crystal's traditional properties is valuable, it is your intuition that will guide you to the crystal that you most need. Trust your inner voice; it will lead you to the crystal that resonates most deeply with your soul's journey. Take a look at the colours that call do you, are you feeling in need of a smooth polished stone or a rough and raw crystal piece. And just remember, when it comes to crystal healing - size does not matter! Even the smallest piece of a stone can achieve ample amounts of healing.
Healing crystals use energy to heal the mind, body, and soul. They transform your energy. The goals of working with them are to:
- Increase low energy
- Remove bad energy
- Transform your aura
- Release blocked energy
Healing is achieved through transformation or unblocking of energy. After each use, part of the healing process is clearing that energy from the crystal. Therefore, an essential aspect of working with healing crystals is respecting the stone's power and adequately preparing it to help you manifest your intention.
All crystals and stones are formed in the earth. Therefore they contain energy that was absorbed from nature. They are best cleansed with water, sunlight, and moonlight. Not all crystals can be submerged, so check the stone's properties before cleansing its energy with water. Placing them near windows with exposure to the sun or moon are great ways to recharge your healing stone before starting a new healing journey.
