About Me  | Archive - September 2007 Malachite for Bitter HeartsPosted Sep-26-07 12:46:50 PDT QUESTION: Hi - I have purchased stones from you recently, I wanted to know what YOU would recommend as a healer. I am going through a very bitter divorce and one of my children has moved out of my house which has left me broken hearted, bitter, hatefull, the list goes on. What would you recommend for me - I have been using rose quartz, amethyst and chrystals - not finding much release. I also use obsidian to block negative thoughts coming my way. I would love your suggestion. ANSWER: Hello, thank you for your email and your previous purchases. I highly suggest using Malachite for such strong emotions you are feeling. Malachite is a power stone used for releasing such harsh emotions and eventually bringing forgiveness. I recently suggested the same to a friend who went through a bad relationship, and she starting to feel the effects of the power stone! But beware, that this is a very intense crystal which can bring up all of those negative emotions at once. You may feel out of balance for a while as the emotions are being released, so don't fear, just let it take its course. I would also suggest using Rose Quartz and Aventurine to alleviate some of this intense energy release. So, clean, charge and program Malachite as you would any stone and then place it over your heart while lying down, imagining all those negative emotions being drawn out by the crystal. Let your mind "re-live" these emotions up to 3 times, and then let them go. You may still feel them, but try to look at it from a "third person" point of view, sort of like a movie. Your healing will take as long as your own mind's willingness to let go, but I am sure that Malachite will be a powerful aid in the process. While not doing direct healing work, I would suggest wearing a Malachite pendant or necklace.
For me, Obsidian is a bit more protective of outside forces. For your own negative thoughts, I would suggest Apache Tears, which are also great in releiving grief and bringing forgiveness.
Let me know if there is anything else I can answer for you. Please know that we are always hear to help you with your crystal healing related questions.
Sincerely,

Labradorite: September's LessonPosted Sep-26-07 11:28:13 PDT Updated Sep-26-07 11:29:03 PDT This is an article I wrote for Opus Arts' free 1-year Crystal E-course. If you are interested in joining, email me or my friends at Opus Arts. Labradorite is for those who are attracted to the mysteries of life, reports crystal healer Sheila Satin. Deceptively dull at first look, turn it towards a certain light and you will be mesmerized by brilliant flashes of blue-greens and yellows!
Labradorite is one of my favorite crystals. I was immediately drawn into its colorful depths and love to wear Labradorite jewelry, keep Labradorite pieces around me and work with Labradorite tools.
Here are 10 simple ways to use Labradorite which I have found effective for myself and my clients:
1. Wear Labradorite necklaces to deflect negative energies. Keep your aura safe!
2. Use Labradorite Massage Crystals to stimulate motivation.
3. Lie in a Labradorite grid (placing pieces of the crystal around your bed or body) for 10 minutes when you are feeling at an impasse. It will help to clear your mind and gives you the answer to your next move.
4. Use Labradorite Slabs on the main chakras to get the energies moving.
5. Make a Labradorite gem elixir to regulate your weight, as it will encourage you to be more motivated in physical activities.
6. Meditate with Labradorite spheres for calm during your spiritual journeys. If you are unfamiliar with meditation, just hold these spheres, eyes closed, concentrating on the crystal's energies, imagining yourself walking around inside the crystal. Before long you will feel your physical energies becoming lighter, your spiritual body lifting to the astral world.
7. Place Labradorite under your pillow to help remember and channel information from the universe. Program the crystal for the purpose of clarifying these messages in the morning.
8. Wear Labradorite bracelets to lower your blood pressure. 9. Place Labradorite on your third eye while lying in bed or in your healing area to open up intuition. Intuition is our trust in our own instincts. This is a very important gateway to the energy healing realm.
10. Place Labradorite slabs over your closed eyelids to clear the eyes of radiation (computers, tvs, cell phones..).
Always remember to clean, charge and program your crystals before use. Everyone will feel something different with each crystal. Whatever you feel is right for you. Trust in whatever you are feeling, no matter how minute it may seem or how silly your logical mind makes you feel. To enter the energy healing realm you must trust in your own instincts.
Just a quick note about the importance of cleaning crystals. I once sold my beloved Labradorite cut necklace to a friend of mine who saw me wear it and loved it. I must have loved it more than her, as she later reported that the three times that she tried to wear it, she had to take it off immediately because it made her feel dizzy and nauseated. I asked if she had cleaned the crystal necklace before wearing it, and she hadn't. By that time she was through with the necklace and gave it back to me where it was supposed to be!

Selenite Crystals for Sealing the AuraPosted Sep-26-07 11:08:40 PDT QUESTION: (follow up to previous post) What kind of emotions will she experience at first if it works? Also, where can I get one of those ones that seals and for how much and is that one necessary? Thanks! ANSWER: As for the Selenite to seal the aura, we have several on our site, you can go to http://stores.ebay.com/idigcrystals and type in "Selenite" or click on "Selenite" in the left hand bar to bring up all the Selenite we have at the moment.
None of the crystals are "necessary"...they are natural aids in our progression towards a balanced self. In reality, we only need the strengths of our minds, and the positivity of our thoughts to heal all of our illnesses, but living in the world today, we often become deluded and do not rely on the strength of our own selves. We are so often told to go to the doctor or the therapist, and don't take responsibility for our own health. So, to answer your question, no, the Selenite is not necessary, we have just found it the most useful in helping clients seal their auras in our own practice. You may find a different method.
We are only here to guide you on your crystal healing path. You should take from it what you want. The best way is always experimentation to see which crystals are going to work best for you :)
Sincerely,
Sheila & Ann Satin

Aura Wands for LethargyPosted Sep-26-07 10:56:51 PDT Updated Sep-26-07 11:05:09 PDT QUESTION: Hey, is this wand hard to use? What all can it do? My mom is always tired and stressed looking with sagging eyes...could this help her? Thanks. ANSWER: Hi, these healing aura wands are extremely easy to use.
After cleaning, charging and programming them, you just have to scan the aura of the person you are working on. So, from top to bottom, front and back. She can be lying down, sitting or standing, up to her. It puts in the energy of the crystal and cleans out the aura of any negative energy.
I would also recommend you use a piece of Obsidian while using the aura to keep yourself protected from absorbing any negative energies coming out of her aura. Another crystal I would highly recommend is to use the Selenite Wand, Ball or Eggs to seal her aura. It sounds like she has a hole in her aura, which causes energy drains, lethargy and general demotivation.

Aura Wand Crystal PendantsPosted Sep-26-07 10:53:27 PDT QUESTION: Firstly you carry some of the most gorgeous products I've seen on the market, and I admire your love and devotion for crystals. This wand is sensational, and my question is do your dealers carry one like it that is pendant sized? I'm looking for a quartz healing wand pendant that has the additional stones on the silver. Thank you for your help! ANSWER: Hi, thank you for the compliment. We do hand select our crystals to make sure they have powerful, warm energies. Many people who are in-tune notice this when they come to our booth, our home and impressively even here online! As for the wand as a pendant, we do get some as pendants from time to time, but usually only one of a kind pieces, as we're not really into the wholesale market. So, make sure to keep our store as one of your favorites and to join our regular mailing list at idigcrystals (com). We are always putting up unique items for your healing needs. Sincerely, Moonstone, Mochi Balls & MerkabasPosted Sep-21-07 16:29:44 PDT QUESTION: Hi Sheila, I will like to have your recommendation for me, about which crystals do I need? My birthday mineral is Pearl- Moonstone. I like to work Bonsai, collect Suisekies (some from China) and I have many spheres, meteorites, amber, David star set, pyramids, costarrican native stone spheres, some stones from places like Machu Pichu in Peru, Tiwanaku in Bolivia and Tiwacan in Mexico. I bougth two items from you yesterday, 2 mochi balls and 1 aventurine Merkaba.
ANSWER: Hello again. Thank you for your email. When I told my mother (Ann Satin) about your question, she recommended Moonstone for you, without even having read your email or anything about your birthday mineral!! So, this must truly be the stone for you! Moonstone, as you know, is a very calming, yin energy. Great for anyone who needs emotional balance and a soothing stability in their lives.
Of course, you should try working with all different crystals and see which energies are most in tune with your own energies! The Mochi Balls that you have bought are wonderful in grounding energy. So if you are doing any kind of healing work, meditation, or just feeling "in the clouds" and need to realign with the earth, just hold these Mochi Balls for earth grounding energy! They are also great if you have any kind of bone problems. Many of our clients have used them effectively for arthritis and joint pains!
The Blue Aventurine Merkaba, will take you up high! This indigo color corresponds with your Third Eye. It will help to develop your intuition (your trust in your instincts) and psychic abilities. It is great if you want to contact higher realms and universal energy. The merkaba itself is circulating a lot of energy through all of the 8 points. Some people do the merkaba meditation. They close their eyes, holding the merkaba in both hands, they imagine the merkaba shape in their mind's eye. Breathing deeply, they imagine the merkaba turning, spinning on one axis and releasing the energy of the crystal.
I hope these answers help you on your way to a great crystal healing path. If you have any others, we are happy to answer them!!
Sincerely,
Sheila & Ann Satin
Apache, Amethyst, Fluorite, Howlite, Moonstone CrystalsPosted Sep-17-07 11:56:37 PDT QUESTION: Hi just receive the items... wow there are no words to tell how fantastic the crystal is and thank you very much on the gifts.... Apache Tears what are this use for and how to use them? Howlite,Amethyst,Fluorite and Moonstone how do I use them? pls adv asap... very excited to use them.. How do I cleanse and programe 5" QUARTZ TOWER Crystal Healing Point Wand Nice Rainbow.. pls do adv me. the items are more beutiful than the picture... With Divine Love and Rgds ANSWER: Hello again, I hope you are doing well and energized with your new crystals!
Apache Tears are a form of Obsidian (volcanic glass), so they also are great in absorbing and transmuting negative energy to positive. Small tumbled piece are excellent to put in your pocket. These have an additional feature of aiding you in times of grief and mourning. I gave a few to my friend when her friend died and used them myself when my father died. Sometimes you will notice that the color in the stone will be absorbed into your aura as it sacrifices its energy for you!
Howlite is a great stone to use in two main ways: one is to absorb anger. If you are going into any angry situation and want to remain calm and focused, make sure to have Howlite in your pocket or hands. second, it is great for those who are trying to overcome addiction, especially to foods. Making an elixir out of Howlite and drinking it each day will aid in weight loss.
Amethyst is a very spiritual stone. This is a very popular crystal that will help you to connect with the Higher Realms. It is great to meditate with or put in your healing/altar area. It is also great to put under your pillow to clarify dreams at night, help in insomnia, headaches..basically anything to do with the head! It is known to increase your vibrations so that you can more easily connect with the spiritual realms.
Fluorite is great for calming the nerves. If you have any digestion problems, place a few pieces or slabs on your stomach as you lie with your eyes closed, breathing deeply. It is also great for those who have sinuses, just place them on the temples (or tape them there if they won't stay on their own) and have them imagine a healing energy running down to their lungs. Fluorite is also great for those who need to concentrate on their studies or tests or assignments, having large pieces of Fluorite on the desk can significantly increase focus. I use a super large Fluorite sphere on my table for this purpose!
Moonstone is a calm, yin energy. It has the properties of the Goddess Moon. This is an especially effective crystal for females, and also males who need some calming feminine energy to balance the agression. Moonstone can also be made to an elixir for aiding problems with hair, skin and eyes!
All tumbled crystals can be held, made into jewelry, made into elixirs, put in your purse or pocket, placed under the pillow, placed on the body.
Don't forget to clean, charge and program each crystal before use. These instructions can be found on my website at idigcrystals dot com under "crystal healing" and then "crystal care" tabs!
Sincerely,
Sheila Satin
Obsidian's RainbowsPosted Sep-17-07 11:42:03 PDT Updated Sep-18-07 12:02:47 PDT QUESTION: Hi Sheila, A bit ago purchased some crystals from you and I do love them all but a question, the one obsidian is said to be a rainbow and for the life of me I cannot see the ‘rainbow’. What does it look like? Or what am I to see? I have looked at the pictures of what it is to look like but I have a very hard time seeing anything. Can you give me a clue? It to me is as black as black, but very beautiful. Thanks so much and I have given your website to several friends who are very interested in your crystals. ANSWER: Hello, sometimes the piece is too small or hard to see the rainbows. And sometimes the rainbows merely refer to the sheen or reflective color seen in the crystal besides the black! Obsidian is solidified volcanic glass and the rainbows are caused by the way the Obsidian cools. So, all Obsidian has the same property, the rainbows are an additional feature like inclusions and rainbows in Quartz crystals :)
Best to look under sunlight, sometimes you will see a very discreet coloring in the black. If not, no worries, it still works the same way! And, I do put up items that have extreme rainbows, these easily show up in my camera (check out some of the obsidian balls I have up), so you know they will show up in your hands!!
Hope that helps,
Sheila :)
REPLY: Sheila, thank you so much for the response. After writing this, I did what I should have done in the first place. Took it outside in the sunlight, and guess what? 5 ‘rainbows’’ turned up. I am having so much fun with my crystals. Very amazing!
Moonstone Crystal HeartsPosted Sep-12-07 22:52:44 PDT QUESTION: Hi there how are you I have just won a Sunstone Pyramid off you and I live in Australia Is it correct that if I also win another item, moonstone heart that shipping will only be one dollar extra as combined shipping, please reply asap and hold off shipping of the pyramid if this is this case thanks russell ps out of the two moonstone hearts which one has best healing energy in your opinion and nicest to look at. ANSWER: Hello, thanks for your email. You are correct! If you pay for combined shipping within 7 days of your first auction ending, any additional items are only $1 for shipping.
Are you looking between the Peach Moonstone and the White Moonstone Heart? For each person they will have a different energy, to me the peach moonstone is a more stable, calm, subtle energy while the white moonstone is a more active and bolder energy. It will be different for you though. Whichever one is more attractive to you is the one you'll want. You may be attracted to both, in which case Moonstone will be the right crystal for you in general!
Sincerely,
Sheila Satin
Crystals Programmed for SuccessPosted Sep-12-07 12:44:04 PDT Updated Sep-12-07 22:53:04 PDT QUESTION: I would like to purchase this ring--can you tell me more about it. It looks quite old. ANSWER: Thanks for your email. This ring is actually new, however because it is sterling silver, the silver does get oxidized. This is easy to polish back up with a silver polishing cloth or jewelry solution. Also, the stones are obviously very old in their natural formation.
Both my mother and I have programmed the ring for your success in your new HIP treatment. It will lead you to great success. Have no doubts.
Sincerely,
Sheila & Ann Satin

Crystals for Psychic Attacks, Home & CatsPosted Sep-10-07 22:37:10 PDT QUESTION: I have some bids out for other items of yours. Will be paying at the end of the week.
Hope I am getting the right stones. (Couldn't figure out how to post a question on your blog site.) Personal attack by opposing attorney in work comp trial case, problems at home, & my special house cat suddenly disappeared last night- my heart is breaking... Thank you!!!
ANSWER:
Hello, you did the right thing and emailed your question to post on the blog :) As for the right crystals for your cases, as you may know, each crystal has many different healing properties and you will find the right ones that are vibrating with your energies. I can give you suggestions on general crystals that myself and my clients have found useful in specific cases. As for personal attacks, I would strongly recommend Carnelian. I always wear a large Carnelian pendant when going into any problematic situations. So although others may be sending me negative energies, the Carnelian can protect me against psychic attacks (so negative thoughts, intentional or not).
Problems at home, you will have to specify the problem itself? As for bringing general harmony to the home I would recommend a Rose Quartz or Amethyst cluster. Or large spheres to bring group harmony and understanding.
I am sorry to hear about your cat. The same has happened to our family when one of our cats ran away and never came back. So determine what crystal you want to help you, we'll have to determine what kind of energy you are seeking. For me, I accepted the fact that our cat had other plans in his destiny to fulfill and let him go. But if you need stones for getting over grief or loss, I'd recommend Apache Tears. To aid you in your search, I'd recommend placing Citrine at your front door and front windows while calling out mentally to your kitty.
Remember always to program, clean and charge your crystals for best effect. And as always, crystals are great tools in your enhancing the subtle energies around us. Sometimes we just have to find out what we really want and what we are really looking for in life.
I hope some of this has helped you in your questions.
Sincerely,
Sheila Satin

Crystal Healing BooksPosted Sep-05-07 19:16:15 PDT Question:
Do you have any books or information about using crystals for healing that you would recommend?? Especially anything that combined crystals with Reiki.
Answer:
I would recommend "The Illustrated Guide to Crystals" because it's not just a reference book like the "Crystal Bible" or "Love is in the Earth" (these are both great reference books though). The "Illustrated Guide" gives you practical demonstraations on how to use the crystals in your practice and in your home. It also has a small directly of crystals and their properties. It is very colorful, informative and easy to read.
Hope that helps. If you have any further questions, don't hesitate to email me. Sheila :)
