Crystal Meanings, Power, Purpose and Intention
We are here to share how to use our intention to go deep inside to embody trust that everything is put here for our healing.
Most of us grow up with a love affair with stones, minerals and crystals. We share them with one another. We encircle our home and gardens with these precious treasures.
Our understanding of crystals within a healing and spiritual development blends with the principles of western medicine, homeopathy and psychology.
What are the major arcana of gemstones? How do they relate to the traditional archetypes? How can they help us develop a deepen our ability to find solutions to current issues, or create a more heart-centered life?
Many healing traditions incorporate healing therapies using crystals. Indigenous remedies are often enhanced through the added influence of potent properties from the mineral world. While the specifics of ritual practice with crystals varies greatly among tribes and practitioners, the basic concepts of crystal healing remains the same. I have worked with crystals for many years and have nurtured one of my most treasured relationships with the healing qualities of stones.

Crystals are based on subtle energies and “working with” crystals we become the medium for the energetic qualities of the stone. Intention is a huge part of healing with crystals, but it is not acting or faking it. Connecting to the essence of the stone is based in our own biochemical experience.
I have long used crystals in massage therapy and see over and over that they are catalysts that can encourage change. Crystals “inform” the body of potential and by removing stuck energy, memories, grief and trauma.
Outside of ourselves they produce resonate with an energetic universe and help us develop patterns towards harmony during. I term this as vibrational wisdom.
