Crystals & Gemstones Crystals come in a wide variety of sizes, shapes and colors. Their matrixes follow the patterning of Sacred Geometry All crystal and gemstones are living organisms. Crystals have a life energy of their own . . .they are alive and usually grow in clusters. They are part of the Mineral Kingdom Most are grown in nature. Some that are synthetically produced. Crystals vibrate on their own frequency. The frequency they send out will determine which crystal you will chose at a certain point in your life. You do chose different crystals as your needs change. Many crystals are as old as our planet and record its history. They are supposedly the record keepers of the planet. Some crystals supposedly come here from off of the planet - such as moldavite or other celestial crystals.
Singly terminated crystals have a point at one end. 
Double terminated crystals have points at both ends. 
Some crystals come to you with holographic images in them. Sometimes they develop images, to get smoky after you have worked with them. These are projections from your mind into the crystal. Most crystals change during the years they are with you. Some people can hold a crystal and 'receive' telepathic messages from it. This is called scrying. Some crystals are more like rocks or stones. They are usually polished (called tumbled) and come in a variety of sizes. Crystals balance or amplify energy fields. They are used in communication devices. You can place crystals in water for 24 hours then drink the water. 
SELECTING A PERSONAL CRYSTAL When you chose a crystal - it will seem to 'call' to you as if it has been waiting for you. This is because you and that crystal are on the same frequency. The crystal will 'catch your eye' and you will feel an immediate connection, even if it is not the crystal you came for. When you hold the crystal in your hand, you will feel a connection of frequency. Some people find crystals. Some people 'feel' that crystals find them. Once you have your crystal - the next step is to clean and clear the energies from it. You clear it to clean frequencies in it that are not in balance for with you. Quartz crystals and gemstones easily attract all kinds of 'vibrations'; negative as well as positive. The stones are always 'open' to receiving impressions from everyone and everything around them! Your stone, which you have just selected, may well have traveled many thousands of miles before coming to you - and may well have acquired many negative energies and ' vibrations' before it became yours. Therefore before starting to use your stone for any purpose whatsoever it is very important that you first remove any of these unwanted 'vibrations' and disharmonious energies. You must do everything you possibly can to ensure that only the most natural - and purest - energies remain within your stone.
CLEANSING YOUR CRYSTAL The method you use is always a matter of personal choice. Approach the crystal as if it is a living entity. Most people wash their crystals in water or soak them for several hours in sea salt mixed in water. My method seems silly to most people - but it works for my crystals. I use a liquid soap - such as "Soft Soap". I rinse my crystals - apply a bit of soap - rinse them gently again - then place them on a soft cloth to dry. Next I place them in sunlight to energize them. Moonlight will do the same thing especially during a Full Moon. Once my crystal is clean and clear - I hold it in my hand and the crystal and I begin a discussion. The crystal usually tells me where it wants to be in my home and what its purpose is at that time. This can vary after a period of time when crystal tell you that they want to be placed somewhere else in the home. Talking to crystals telepathically is called Scrying.
WORKING WITH CRYSTALS Hold the cleansed crystal in your hand (right or left) and send it a telepathic message. The energy of your thoughts will be incorporated into the crystal. Meditating with your crystal: Crystals can enhance the energies of your meditation. You can hold the crystal, wear it, place it on a specific chakra (if it is small enough), or combine it with other crystals you are using. Decorative Uses of Crystals: Jewelry Slices of crystals can be used as book ends. Large clusters placed in a room balance energies but also look beautiful, especially large amethyst clusters.
