The Power of Healing Crystals

 

Throughout the ages human beings have used healing crystals and gems to heal, protect and fortify their inner strength. How this practice first began is unknown. However, history often speaks of the power these gifts of nature give to our good health and well-being. Modern day crystal healers have come to realize the great power specific stones and gems can have on certain areas of the body. Using historical references made by ancient healers and their own experience it has been discovered that each stone lends a unique character trait to the healing arts. For instance quartz crystal properties include the ability to absorb negative energy and thereby remove it from the body.

The quartz crystal is then cleansed by being immersed in sea salt or by burying in the ground, under the full moon, to be used again. Removing this negative energy from the body has the effect of creating harmony and creating a perfect environment for healing. Other crystals used for healing are numerous and varied, Amethyst’s are often used for removing headaches while Jade is used to boost the immune system.

Crystals for healing

There are abundant ways to use crystals for healing. Whether they are being utilized by the individual or administered by a healer one of the most popular methods to obtain benefits from gems and crystals is by wearing them on the body in the form of crystal jewelry or crystal pendants which can be purchased pre-set onto chains. Some people purchase or make silk or cotton that may be filled with any combination of small gems and worn around the neck (under the clothing) for one or several days at a time.

The gems are then removed and cleansed before re-use. Another popular method of using crystals for healing is to immerse one or several crystals or gems in purified water for a short time; the charged water is then consumed in small quantities throughout the day or used to bath or shower with. Healing crystals can also be directly added to the bath water in which the person wishing to be healed will soak for a half hour or more to absorb the properties of that specific stone or combination of stones. Yet another method is to place the stones upon the body at vital points or chakra areas to enhance balance and energy flow.

No matter how crystals are used for healing, it is vital that they are properly cleansed for at least twenty-four hours after each use to rid them of any absorbed negativity. It is also suggested that you do not allow anyone but yourself to handle your personal crystal healing stones unless you are a qualified healer and have purchased them for the sole purpose of healing others.

Another gift from nature, that has remained a great secret to many, but which is even more ancient are Mustika crystals. Also known as Mustika stones or pearls these gems from nature are extremely powerful when used for physical, mental and spiritual healing.

For instance Dark Honey Mustika Pearls are used for speedy healing of wounds and to increase good energy within the body, while Sea Water Pearls are used for cleansing the mind and body of impurities.

Many who study the art of Metaphysics believe that Mustika are even more powerful than crystals for this purpose and others and these items have been experiencing a growth in popularity due to this belief. Word is spreading fast and Mustika will not remain a treasured secret much longer. Like their crystal cousins the methods of use are very similar. Mustika pearls may be used in the same ways as healing crystals are for absorbing negative energy and boosting the immune system.

The smaller pearls may be worn around the neck in a crystal sack, used to charge water or other beverages that have absorbed their charge and used to bath in or laid upon the body on the chakra points to enhance energy, balance and good health.
