The Crystal of the Day Sunday 10 November 2013

The Crystal of the Day Sunday 10 November 2013 is Orange River Crystals. In Africa the areas where Orange River crystals are mined are remote and barren. Like the river name, most of the crystals have a beautiful orange glow to them. A vast array of formations have been found along this river such as elestials, Genrators, Transmitters, Cathedrals, Star Gazers with a variety of inclusions including Hematite. These crystals are from one of the most inhospitable areas on the planet, yet something of such beauty can be found there. Most of these crystals have phantoms within them, recording lessons of the past, so that progress can be made. They have a rich history and can instill many life lessons. They are amazing teachers if you take the time to listen to their stories.

Most Orange River Quartz has some level of Red Phantom inclusions and Red-phantom quartz crystals are rare. The red phantom is used to stimulate the first three chakras, to combine the energies in order to produce highly recognisable vitality directed toward creativity, intellectual advancement, and intuitive endeavours.

In addition, the red phantom exhibits qualities similar to dioptase; it provides for stimulation of the intelligence of the cellular structure of the body such that the cells may recognise the reason for malfunction, in conditions of disease; it further provides the vitality and creativity for the correction of the malfunction.

Hematite forms a reflective shield around the wearer, letting negativity bounce off and return to the sender. Wearers should remember however, that their own negativity will be reflected to them if they are its source. It is therefore a “lesson stone”, teaching the aware to release and ground their negativity. It is also said to aid in Mental attunement, memory enhancement and in disorders of the blood. Hematite symbolises balance. It is used to ground, stabilise, and focus attention on the physical plane. It is popular among many pagans for its ability to absorb negative energy. Hematite can absorb both positive and negative energy, though it is most often used to absorb negative energy. It is a very easy stone to clear and cleanse, and thus can be used multiple times in the absorption of energy. Hematite has connections to both Fire and Earth.

The Crystal of the Day for Thursday 3 October 2013

The Crystal of the Day for Thursday 3 October 2013 is Castle Crystal aka “Cathedral Crystal”. Like building castles in the air with a solid foundation, Castle Crystals are masters of energies of balancing, uplifting, and relieving depression and anxiety. Psychically they are used for accessing mystical knowledge you are spiritually prepared to receive by traveling to different “rooms” within the castle in meditation. They are also used for astral travel and gaining Akashic wisdom.

One prominent point with parallel points stepping up around all sides, rather like candle drippings. It is usually an opaque crystal formation of one main central point and surrounding parallel ones usually of different widths and lengths, but shorter than the main crystal, all growing on a common base. If clear it is a Lightbrary.

Significant parts of the Akashic Record are manifest in Cathedral Quartz. These rare entities contain the knowledge of the Universe that humans can understand. They are impersonal teaching crystals that can be accessed by careful study.

These crystals can seem uncommonly inert and lifeless when first encountered. However with familiarity and careful study, they warm and seem to be filled with an eerie inner glow often reported to be a faint violet colour.

If you seek wisdom, enlightenment, and a deep understanding of mankind’s place in the universe, both physical and spiritual, no better meditation crystal exists.

These crystals are for use by dedicated seekers of Universal Truth. They are worth whatever their price, if used conscientiously.
