Crystal of the Day for Monday 23 September 2013

Crystal of the Day for Monday 23 September 2013 is Fulgurite. Fulgurites are natural glass, usually tubular, formed by lightning strikes in sand or rock. Fulgurites are high energy formations due to the nature of their birth. They are particularly noted for their ability to channel and direct energy. Fulgurites have been used to communicate with aliens and entities, or ascended beings in the spirit world. They are often used for clairaudience. This crystal enables you to master your clairaudient abilities and creates the ability to perfect yourself as a clear channel. This enables you to access universal knowledge and to connect intuitively with guides and Masters. Fulgurites are also used to enhance communication in the physical world, and are used as stones of leadership.

Fulgurites are used by Native Americans to bring rain (cloud-bursting), and as charms for protection from lightning. Weather-changing of any sort is not recommended, however, unless, as with the Native Americans, one has an exceptionally good sense of the balance of Nature. Physically, fulgurites are used in crystal healing and in treatment of the immune system, ear, nose, and throat ailments, sight, thymus, tumours, growths, and colon.

Fulgurites are powerful stones for grounding. Their energy can be used to arouse the Kundalini forces at the Root Chakra and move through each Chakra at every level of our light body, purifying and cleansing the entire system. The empowering energy from this stone opens the higher Chakras to Divine energy. It opens and clears the psychic and intuitive senses, encourages our sense of creativity and inner power, allows for assistance with divine prophecy and helps one in rapidly connecting with the frequency of the Universal truth through prayer or meditation. Fulgurite has shown to help one to experience major breakthroughs when kept close and to release habitual patterns that no longer serve us. This a particularly beneficial stone for healers, teachers, psychics and channelers as well as others who need to accurately relay information and guidance from the higher realm. Fulgurite can quickly clear negative patterns from the emotional body and assist in clearing all forms of anger and confusion within relationships. Fulgurite is also excellent at shedding light on the karmic aspects of relationships with others in your life. This stone attunes to both Gemini and Virgo.
