Archive - January 2008 Programming CrystalsPosted Jan-20-08 13:40:03 PST QUESTION Ann, Thank you for your reply. One more question. After I cleanse, and charge with Reiki symbols do I have to program them again too. I usually program them saying, I program these crystals for the highest good into their original state so that they keep their innate qualities and continue to increase energy and and heal and protect. What symbols should I use besides the Master symbol for programming. and do I have to reprogram the crystals if I use them on myself and then my daughter. I know I should cleanse and charge after each use but what about programming? Thank you for your help. ANSWER You have to program crystals only once before using them for the first time. You will need to reprogram them only you want to use them for a different purpose. Master symbol covers everything. Using Reiki to cleanse, charge, and programPosted Jan-19-08 23:02:22 PST QUESTION:
I have quite a few different crystals. It takes too long to cleanse them by smudging because I feel you have to pick each stone up above the smudge stick since the smoke floats above the crystal. Since I am a new Reiki master, do you think using the mental, emotional symbol is good for cleansing them, the power symbol to charge, them and to program them I say, " I program these stones for the highest good into their original state so that their inherent qualities prevail and their energies expand to also heal and protect me."
Also, how often do I have to cleanse them? After each time I use them for a healing on myself?
If you cleanse them do you have to then charge them and then program them again? Thank you for your help. I really enjoy your website. Thank you so much.
ANSWER:
Thanks for your email. My preferred method of cleaning crystals i placing them on a large crystal cluster or burying them under brown rice. These are simple and thorough methods of cleaning the crystals. I do this after any kind of healing work because you never know what kinds of negativity have entered from the healing sessions. If it is is a polished no-soluble stone and I don't have the above methods available, I'll give them a quick rinse under tap water.
Using Reiki is definitely one of the good way of cleansing and programmig the crystals . You already have the right idea/intuition.
The Mental/Emotional symbol is used to balance the energy and to bring harmony and peace, which you can use for balancing/cleansing the energy of crystals.
The power symbol is used to increase the Reiki power and can be used to protect yourself, your car, your home, your children or anything you value and in this case you want crystals to heal and protect you, and through the power symbol you ask reiki energy to be with crystals, so they can heal you and protect you. Thanks for being a part of I dig crystals!
Sheila and Ann Lingam Crystals for Pregnancy FertilityPosted Jan-17-08 18:06:44 PST QUESTION: good morning sheila, It's me again lol. I was wondering, would this (regarding the Quartz Shiva Lingam pendant) work similarly to how one of the brown lingams would work? I used one about 4 years ago to help me conceive my first child after I was told I could not become pregnant. I put a large brown lingam under the head of the bed and wore a smaller one around my neck. Just a couple of months later I was pregnant with my son. I am thinking about becoming pregnant again and when I was looking through deciding what to add to my order I came across this and had to ask :) Many thanks and Blessings ANSWER: I think for your purpose, the lingam would be more effective. This piece will enhance your lingam work as it is a carving of the lingam in Quartz. Quartz, as you know, enhances all the energies around us, and with the lingam symbol, it will remind you of your purpose. It is also set in sterling silver, a metal which enhances the property of crystals as well. Sincerely, *To submit your own crystal healing related questions, please email us. Preferred method of Programming CrystalsPosted Jan-10-08 18:24:12 PST QUESTION: Hello, Do you have a preferred method of programing crystals? ANSWER: Hello, yes, I do. I like to hold it in my hands (or one hand if it's small) and imagine a white light from the universe going into the crystal and then I say out loud a positive statement of what energy I want from the crystal. For example, if I were programming a lepidolite for stress, I would hold it and say "Thank you for sliding the stress from my body". You can imagine white like I do or whatever color you think comes from the universe :) *Submit your own crystal healing related questions by emailing: idigcrystals@gmail.com Cleaning & Using Crystal Healing WandsPosted Jan-10-08 18:21:14 PST QUESTION: Dear Sheila, Thank you for this information......After cleaning the house or other cleansing , should I clean the wand? Running under water,or soak in sea water,or in a bowl of sea salt,or just in it's case which I've filled with organicaly grown rice.Please tell me which you prefer? Also, any info on the selenite/flourite wand and obsidian generator, also the previous selenite wand? How should the wand be held while meditating? I appreciate your info,as it gives me many ways to use these wonderful crystals. ANSWER: Thanks for your email. When using it for meditation or the likes, I like to hold the wand with the tip facing up to the heavens, but any way is correct :) As for cleaning of the wand, I always put it in dry brown rice. Water ruins the silver. Your organic rice will do well! Yes, you should clean it after every healing/cleaning use. As for the Selenite/Fluorite Wand, we use these for direct massage on the skin. I supporse you can also use in energy healing and sealing the aura like regular Selenite. As for the Obsidian generator, besides using it as a generator wand as we sent instructions for, you can use it for accupressure by pressing the tip into the accupressure points. This piece you can also heal to protect yourself during any kind of healing work on others so that you are not effected by their negative energies. And, this may seem unconventional, but you can also use it as a pestle if you are wanting to energize any spices or soft foods by mashing it with the rounded end. Crystal Quartz Aura Wand EnergyPosted Jan-10-08 18:17:05 PST QUESTION: Dear Sheila, ANSWER: Besides opening up your own chakras through the sun method, you can also use it to cleans your house by pointing the tip to all of the corners, sweeping out any negative entities. If you have a large gathering at your house or elsewhere, you can "clean" out the aura of the group by waving the wand over everyone's general group aura. Programming the wand for these different uses as well! *Please submit your own crystal healing related questions via email.
