Introduction to Stones and Crystals






“Crystals are the offspring of Heaven and Earth’s marriage.
They are a gift from Gaia, the spirit of our planet, to amplify the power of light and love”.

Crystals aren’t New Age. They have been a part of our 4.6 billion year old planet since the dawn of time. Crystals are gifts of the earth that we can use to improve our lives, our relationships, and ourselves.

They are earthly manifestations of Universal energy, of the Goddess and God. Crystals are associated with ancient wisdom and the heavenly caverns of mystery and magick. They are the record keepers and storehouses of memories and knowledge of the earth’s spiritual healing history.

Although they seem like inert objects, crystals are very much alive. They are both filled with energy and are conduits of energy. That is one of the reasons why crystals are used in watches, radios and modern medical devices. Crystals amplify their own energy as well as the energy of the Divine Universal energy that has different names, including Spirit, chi, qui, Light and Love and Reiki. The term crystal therapy refers to working with crystals’ live energy and voice in conjunction with Divine energy.

Crystals are members of the mineral kingdom in the physical world. In the spiritual world, they belong to the “elemental realm” which includes the spirits that guard, heal and protect t the planet. Other members of the elemental realm include faeries, gnomes, elves, dolphins and leprechauns.

Historians and archaeologists have traced the use of crystals in healing and beauty rituals back to the earliest civilisations. They magnify personal and planetary vibrational energy. Our ancestors used crystals as mystic tools, energy generators, communication enhancers and medical instruments. Archaeological digs show their use as talismans of good fortune and protection, as well as amulets, jewellery and magnificent home showpieces.

Crystals are powerful beings in their own right and need to be approaches with respect. If you do this, they will be only too pleased to cooperate with you. Like any other stones, gems come from the earth and carry Earth energy. Some gems are rarer than others (which does make them more expensive) however, this doesn’t necessarily make them better or more powerful.

As we acknowledge and accept these wise friends, we begin experiencing their positive influence. They’ve been patiently awaiting our willingness to interact with from a place of integrity and truth, to assist us in healing and working Magick.
