Self Hypnosis and Subliminal Technology

Peripheral Perception Is Natural

Peripheral perception, shadowed or masked information—it’s all subliminal technology, which is one of the most powerful techniques presently available. It can rescript the preconscious mind, stripping away negative expectations and self-doubt and replacing those destructive patterns with positive input, thereby eliciting positive changes in an effortless and natural way from the inside out.

There’s nothing mysterious about all of this. Yet part of the difficulty in understanding subliminal rests in the word itself. A subliminal message, at least in the instance of an audio program, could be defined as a verbal stimulus perceived below the threshold of awareness. Now, the key word here is perceive. A whisper two blocks away is below the threshold of awareness, but it isn’t perceived. In order for perception by an individual to occur, there must be sufficient stimuli to trigger a neuron in the brain.

Neurons have no neutral state. They’re either off or on. Therefore, the perception level that exists and is taking place with subliminals is, in fact, a neural excitation. Without it, there exists no perception, with or without awareness.

What’s It Like?

In the many lectures I’ve presented in the United States, Asia, and Europe, there has always been a nagging need to find an analogy that could accurately describe what occurs for the users of InnerTalk audio programs. I’ve worked with the construct of peripheral perception to describe the manner in which voices speaking positive affirmations to the subconscious can—and indeed do—impress the listener even though they’re unaware consciously of the process.

Peripheral perception is normally thought of as that aspect of sight that borders on the fringes of how far out to the right or left side we can see. The fringe always has clarity problems. That is, we may report the ability to see an object to the side, and even slightly behind us; but the further the object moves toward the limit of vision, the less clear it becomes. This is a substantially similar process to how audio perception occurs with InnerTalk subliminal self-help programs.

The fringe is known as the “threshold,” and the audio threshold is established by determining the point at which the conscious mind can hear a particular sound 50 percent of the time. A threshold is that place where sometimes we hear the signal and other times we don’t. With InnerTalk, this point is relative to the primary carrier, music or nature sounds. Thus, the words are sometimes audible and sometimes not. The entire message may not be understood, but the voices are acknowledged by the conscious mind. Thus, from time to time we hear the message even if we don’t understand every word of it.

Similar to the limit of peripheral vision, where we see an object but without the sharpness that comes from looking directly at it, InnerTalk audio messages are sometimes heard, but without the clarity the conscious mind requires in order for it to repeat the information. Shadowing the messages, as described earlier, facilitates this.

Change . . . from the Inside Out

The comparison of peripheral vision to the audio perception of an InnerTalk stimulus continues to be effective. The analogy of what happens to users of the audio subliminal program as they listen to it was much more difficult for me until a friend and I sat down to discuss just that. As we reviewed our personal experiences with InnerTalk, it became very obvious that our benefit had been gradual and from the inside out, almost intuitive in its inner direction. Often, only when the affirmations contained on the program were reread did we have an “Aha!” that acknowledged consciously why certain aspects of our drives and emotions, and therefore behavior, had changed.

Intuitive perception is just what seems to take place when you work with a well-designed program. One day you act differently because you’re thinking differently. Gentle nudges from the inner mind begin to guide one’s choices. In my friend’s instance, creativity became natural. New ideas and concepts just seemed to flow through him. Later he experienced successes with different programs, but they were in process substantially the same as with the first one: I Am Creative.

All my experiences are akin to his. At first there seems to be little noticeable change, but after a few days things just seem to have a different arrangement. One day I was afraid of public speaking, to the point that I would do almost anything, invent almost any excuse, just to avoid it. Then it seemed like the next day public speaking was tolerable, and the following day I was excited about the opportunity to share with others. Today lectures, workshops, radio, and television are just something I do like any other activity.

What we believe in our subconscious is who and what we are! The conscious mind can only guess at what’s in the subconscious, while the subconscious has every thought the conscious will ever have long before it comes to awareness. In order to change, we need to change the way we think. Speaking directly to the subconscious is what subliminal messages do. One day there simply seems to be more positive than negative information in the subconscious. Then, as that wonderful bio-computer changes old inner beliefs about ourselves and the world around us, almost magically those goals, ideals, and ambitions become ours! And it happens without doubt, without fear.

This crystal can assist you to connect easier with your guides and Angels, and also brings a calmness to your life, that you never felt possible before. Auralite-23 crystal tones down anger and cools hot tempers, it teaches the being to think before speaking or acting for the self, and towards others.

Auralite-23 radiates an energy foreign to most individuals, especially practitioners who are truly disconnected from their own soul. Immediately upon touch, one can understand the craze behind this stone, and why developing a small “obsessions” of Auralite-23 is actually quite common. The soothing energies that one feels going through their body is the work of so many different chemical components and CAN NOT be replicated anywhere else (we like to compare it to your favorite dessert that can only be made by that one special individual who knows the “secret ingredient”). These energies directly resonate with your chakra column, and allow for complete alignment and reconciliation amongst your entire internal system.

Auralite 23 helps to relax the body and can be beneficial in the removal of tension, headaches, eye strain, muscle discomfort and muscle spasms. It can also be of help to vascular health, bringing an improved function and healing. Auralite-23 balances our physical body and removing chronic problems within our body, reminds our body of its proper vital functions and bring forth regeneration and rejuvenation, activates all 7 of our main chakras and also those above our head and below our feet, balances, awakens and opens our kundalini energies, an awareness of the eternal now. Auralite-23 crystals can also help to create a divine line for your twin flame to find you following their own lines straight to you. Help end bad relationships and create a healthy long lasting one. If you are ready to do the work, this will work for you.

The stone itself, works with the upper chakras, but more specifically, has a healing role all over the body. Auralite-23 crystal enhances healing, personal development and intuition extensively and on many levels and can really only be appreciated once it’s been held. It is a stone of all empowering knowledge, and inspiration. It will help you greatly to understand your shortfalls and your abilities, like never before. Also this is a stone that can help to remove prejudice and unnecessary judgment.

Auralite-23 can change you in one medium-length meditation session if you’re truly willing to “let go” and embrace the powers that be. We highly encourage you to meditate with this stone once a day for around 10-14 days, then completely stop and go “cold-turkey”. See for yourself the direct impact it has on your day to day life, as well as your attitude and mental strength. You may have to expose yourself to the darkness and live there for a few moments, but one will come out of it eternally grateful and eager to begin their spiritual journey once more.

Auralite 23 is a popular stone for those working on the Law of Attraction. These crystals are commonly referred to as “new” because they seem to be especially suited to the emerging earth-based movements surfacing around the globe. This crystal is named for the fact that up to 23 minerals can be found in most specimens of the stone. Although it has only been recently “discovered” and mined, Auralite 23 is in fact one of Earth’s oldest minerals. It is also known as Red Cap Amethyst.

Auralite 23 crystals are highly transformative and have also been shown to activate dormant intuitive abilities and enhance ones psychic skills. In particular, these crystals can help the user to develop clairvoyance and clairaudience. For this reason, these crystals can be successfully used in meditation in order to connect and communicate with your personal spirit guides and guardians, higher dimensional beings, Divine Source Energy, Great Spirit, Ascended Masters, Guardian Angels. Some people report that these crystals have also facilitated access to the information stored within the Akashic Records. For this reason, these crystals have shown to be especially useful for enhancing past life work (whether it be for exploration and gathering information, for healing trauma associated with the past lifetime, or for discovering past life connections to others). The neat part is that scientists cannot identify all the minerals in Auralite because a meteor dissipated into the crystal over 1.5 billion years ago and the minerals are not from this planet to identify.

Auralite 23 carries a highly spiritual energy and is often used in channeling by holistic and spiritual healers. It is believed to be a highly transformative stone, emitting a very powerful vibration that some people report to be overwhelming at times. For this reason, it may be wise to approach the crystal with caution if you know that you have difficulty staying grounded.  

Though much of the stone is comprised of amethyst, the 23 refers to the many different elements and minerals found in this stone:

Titanite, Cacoxenite, Lepidocrosite, Ajoite, Hematite, Magnetite, Pyrite, Goethite, Pyrolusite, Gold, Silver, Platinum, Nickel, Copper, Iron, Limonite, Sphalerite, Covellite, Chalcopyrite, Gialite, Epidote, Bornite and Rutile.

Metaphysical Healing Properties Of Septarian

Septarian is an ancient stone that harnesses the beautiful and destructive energy of Mother Earth. It’s a perfect representation of the planet’s rather turbulent history, and it acts as a symbol of the beauty that follows. This stone is not a singular mineral. It’s a consecration, which is a hardened mass of minerals. In this case, Septarian is a composition of predominantly Argonite, Calcite, and Limestone. Some other minerals like Barite or Chalcedony may appear as well. Septarian specimens are believed to have formed during the Cretaceous period when sea levels were much higher. Volcanic eruptions and other occurrences resulted in the death of small sealife that then sank to into the seabed. As the specimens decomposed, sediments would accumulate and create a nodule or mud ball. When the oceans eventually receded, these mud balls were left exposed to the air and dried out, causing shrinking and cracking. The beautiful patterns you see inside septarian nodules are the result of this cracking.

Septarian Nodule is a powerful grounding stone that awakens one’s connection to Mother Earth and the nurturing energy she provides. Ones root chakra will become activated when working with this stone, as well as vital life force energy being channeled throughout your body. This energy being transferred through you is that of ancient origin, being a combination of 3 powerful minerals that will help in the realignment of one's chakra column. One may experience an “inner awakening” when connecting with this stone, driving drastic change and new habits to replace ones old daily habits. Septarian is a perfect tool for anyone going through some sort of drastic change in their life and can help one repair their emotional body. Carrying this stone daily will provide a protective shield around ones aura full of power earthen energy that will help one slowly heal from the inside out. It may be a long drawn out process, but one can fully repair their emotional body and push through any lingering trauma.

Septarian brings calming energies which have a nurturing feel to them, and can bring feelings of joy and spiritual uplifting. Septarian is used to enhance and nurture communication with groups, making it much easier to speak clearly and kindly in group settings. Septarian is also used to assist with communication with Mother Earth. It is said to bring unconscious foreknowledge needed by the user to help him or her always be prepared for what is coming up. In crystal healing folklore, Septarian is used for healing of the blood and kidneys. Septarian is related to the lower chakras, root, sacral and solar plexus.

Septarian is all about making you feel confident in your place in the world. The properties of this stone have a strong connection to our planet’s powerful forces, harnessing its powers and transferring them to you. It teaches you to be strong and encourages you to dig deep as you figure out your true purpose. This rock radiates nurturing energy that prevents you from ever feeling lost or out-of-place. Finding your purpose and living life to the fullest is never easy. But with the support from Septarian and the confidence it brings, being true to yourself has never been easier!

Septarian is a "concretion" stone. Concretions are protective stones, providing both grounding and shielding of the physical, mental, and emotional bodies. It is a stone for regulation of spiritual, mental, and physical prowess. It promotes both calming and understanding on the emotional level. Septarian enhances feelings and the condition of well-being and provides for a merging with and amplifying of ones energies. It is also quite useful in determining the direction in which to progress. Septarian loves to be held, emanating a loving, kind, and sincere energy pattern. It is said to be a speaking stone and enhances communication on multiple levels.

This powerful talisman is also a perfect tool to help one tap into past life energy and memories. Meditating with this stone over your third eye repeatedly can help produce visions of one’s previous life experience, as well as bring more understanding to your current life. Septarian will also help enhance one’s dreams and provide a vividness one has yet to experience. We recommend placing this stone by your night stand or within your pillowcase to maximize its true potential. Try pairing this stone with Quartz to enhance its energy output and the strength at which it vibrates.

Septarian has a great and diverse effect on the life of anyone who uses it. The minerals that can be found in the stones have their own separate effects on you, and they may vary depending on a specific reason. Septarian and Black Star Sapphire can enhance your sense of privacy. You will suddenly realize that you’re sharing too much of your life on social media, and it will make you want to take a step backward and retreat to your inner shell. You will understand that not everyone needs to know every little thing about you and your life, and that having an air of mystery and a sense of privacy is still very important these days.

Septarian has strong shamanic energy and helps one focus on all things Mother Earth. It is a stone of communication, especially when one wants to convey new concepts while public speaking. This stone is great to use when in group activities like drumming circles and so on. Septarian teaches tolerance, patience, and emotional flexibility. It has powerful self-healing influences when meditated upon. Septarian has strong devic connections and so is very good for working with when in your garden or for connecting with nature forces when in the wilderness.

Crystal Programming

CRYSTAL PROGRAMMING


When you begin using programmed crystals, you will find that it works as an extension of your own consciousness. It is an intelligence template, a crystalline structure that will hold desired energy patterns stable for amplified duplication and transmission to specified places.

The essence of programming crystals lies in formulating a thought form (or other energy patterns) then, superimposing it into the matrix (crystalline structure) in a focused and coherent manner. This programming input causes the crystal to respond receptively, thus altering its own pattering to enfold an imprint of the input's character. Well formulated thoughts appear not as linear progressions of concepts, but as holographic, multi-dimensional images with geometric values and specific vibration patterns. As holographic patterns, thought impinges on the upper universe levels creating a polarized field. The crystals atomic and sub-atomic energy levels comply with its resonance. The potentials existing at the no time no space levels of thought are considered to create stress directly upon manifestation probabilities in 3d. As ones' intentions and thoughts change, the shifting potentials influence the flows of 3.d. manifestations.

In programming a crystal, a tool is created which is essentially an extension of ones self. The intricacies of an individual's consciousness are also sensitively encoded along with the intended programming. After continued use by a person, a crystal becomes well keyed to its user and strong resonance is established between them. In effect, the crystals program serves as a template that pattern's in coming energy and emits that coherent, holographic form into the environment on an amplified beam. Fundamentally, whatever is programmed into the crystal will be duplicated, then (over time) will 'feed back' to the programmer. The intention of the programmer becomes a critical factor as to the nature of program and results that will follow. Keep in mind that whatever you program in will duplicate back were you are so, always do programming with a clarity of consciousness, and integrity of intent.

There are two types of programs distinct in their spiritual qualities. These may be called Inspired programming and Personality programming.

Inspired programming is facilitated by the aid of higher levels of awareness. Inspired programming includes the request of input from ascended individuals, angelic authorities, etc., and is always in the users highest evolutionary interests.

Personality programming on the other hand is the formation of intent that reflect ones desires and perceived needs in the physical world with no input from one's higher potentialities. Although crystals with personality programs work perfectly well within the impartial laws of cause and effect, blocks to spiritual growth may well occur as personality centered desires for such things as adventure, wealth, sex or power may not be your actual "soul food". Be mindful, crystals are like double edged swords, the use of which calls for discernment and purity of purpose.

A primary aspect of programming is learning how to interact well with the crystal. One's degree of success is directly related to the quality and clarity of communication established. Your easiest doorway is through your third eye chakra, so holding a crystal to it is most useful. Next, find which facet on the termination seems to be the best 'window' into the crystals interior. Position this facet so it is parallel to your brow and over the third eye. Slowly move the crystal directly from there outwardly 10 inches then slowly back to the forehead. You are feeling receptively for the strength of energy sensation stimulated in the chakra. find the crystal position that gives the strongest feeling of harmony with you. Fine tune this sensation by slight variation of movement. Now, project your awareness through the 'window' and into the crystals interior. Creative mock-ups work well for those having difficulty.

With a spirit of play, pretend you are breathing into the stone and drawing sensations back from it. By drilling this on a creative (imaginary) level, actual perception will be switched on. Your breathing should be long, slow and with comfortable rhythm. This drill is intended to develop your receptive awareness so do not place expectancy on it, simply be open and playful. Drill this regularly until results come without effort. You will now be skilled to learn an actual programming routine.

Prepare yourself by getting comfortable in a place where you will not be disturbed. Center your awareness, align yourself for connection with your higher self and or "light beings". Request guidance, assistance and protection during the process of programming. With the crystal in hand, you now raise your awareness as high as possible. Next, formulate the concept of the program. A concise description of intent is needed which requires clarity of concept, a whole picture. Words alone are of little value, one must feel, be the program to create the holographic image needed. So mock it up then make it more solid! Breathe yourself into it. Mock it up again then make it solid. You are building a clear thought, a powerful command of intent that grows clear as a holographic pattern of thought energy.

With the program fully developed, bring the crystal up to your forehead, connect with it (as learned from the prior drill) then impose the program into the crystals interior. You need to hold the program steady and clear for at least one minute. Your certainty to make it stick will definitely help. It is now done, detach from the crystal and close the procedure with balancing back into 3.d. reality. WIth practice, this procedure will become easy. Allow yourself to develop your own style of programming as your familiarity and skill improve.

It is good to repeat a programming several times. This deepens the imprint and also brings higher clarity to the programmer's own mind. Once programmed the crystal is a specialized extension of the person and there exists an energy tie between them regardless of distance between them. The crystal must be carefully maintained so that gross unbalancing influences do not affect the crystal and it's user. It is wise to put your crystals through regular cleansing and clearing routines. the most effective means utilizing programmed crystals for personal use is to carry them with you and put your attention directly upon them.

Erasing Programs: With a well programmed crystal, clearing and cleansing procedures will not erase the program. To erase a program, go through usual programming procedure. Formulate the intent to erase with 'erase the existing program'. Impinge needs to be done effectively once (not 7 times as done when laying in a program). Following this, give the crystal a good cleansing. It is now ready for a new program.

Multiple Programs: Many programs can be imprinted within one crystal. So long as each is harmonically interrelated i.e. has similar characters of command, they will function effectively. For example, one would not put a communication program in with healing programs, as they will tend to neutralize the effectiveness of both. When programming another in, do it in the usual manner, you will not damage any programs already present. To selectively erase a program use the usual technique and intentionally state the program is to be wiped.

To erase all programs contained within, the intent is "wipe all".

Programming Clusters: Clusters are groups of 3 or more points joined at their base. Each crystal can be individually programmed with differently but harmonically related programs. Together the cluster will create a symphony of vibrations.

DIVERSITY OF PROGRAMMING


The diversity of programming is a second bulletin on this subject and looks briefly at further applications. Healing energies can be used to target specific ailments by the use of affirmations, visualizations and pure energy patterns from crystals as programs. By keeping such crystals upon ones person, and with focused attention your cells and tissues, your whole being is continually exposed to the crystals healing instructions.

Affirmations, visualizations, spiritual symbols, and mandalas can each be programs which will there after chant the specified intent on your behalf. they are used to add strength of conviction while doing creative mind space work.

Color can be programed in. Place the crystals in direct sunlight (expose with a full days worth) wrapped in colored gel, plastic or covered by stained glass. The theatrical color gels work best as their colors have specific values. Multiple colors may be programmed into a single crystal then applied individually or collectively to the healing need.

Sound, tuning forks, musical instruments, musical compositions and mantras are all useful with programming. With tuning forks, place the vibrating fork's handle directly on the crystal. Repeat the procedure for 10 minutes once a day for 7 days. Keep the crystal in a 6 point grid work (data on grid work can be found in k pool. "grid work") while the programming process progresses over the week. Use the same procedure for programming tones or cords with musical instruments. To impart an entire composition or mantra, a recording is played with 2 speaker set up on opposite sides of the grid work pointing directly at the crystal in the center.

Environmental influences can be absorbed as a program. Energy essence patterns such as one's favorite spot, or the vibes from a particular tree, a flowering stream or the earthiness of a cave can each be captured for use. Prepare the crystal in the usual way for programming, ask for divine assistance then leave the crystal in the desired place for at least a week. Remember to solicit the help of devic entities associated to the energy you are seeking.

Vortex areas and holy ground are blessed with powerful energy currents and abundance of light. By programming these crystals you can utilize it's energy without having to be on location to receive it. Prepare the crystal then ask for permission and assistance from the power sites guardians. When possible leave the crystal within the site for a week. If you can not leave it in place, focused meditation and cramming of it's vibes will achieve your goal.

Energy signatures of particular star systems, specific light beings, guides, angelic entities etc. can be captured as programs to establish direct an continuous links with it and ones self. To achieve this, set up a 6 point grid work around a 12 inch pyramid in a quiet, harmonious and undisturbed place. Prepare the crystal to be used as the link, then place it as the center of the grid. Stand directly over the set up then find your communication link with your chosen entity. Ask for permission to establish a solid communication line through the crystal.

Links with other people can be strengthened by exchange of crystals. As the giver, you would put "yourself into the stone" and acknowledge the energy you share with the other. As the carrier of the stone, you will be able to call to presence the other with your focus and the linking will occur. Once permission is received, ask for assistance with the program energy signature, then imprint it into the crystal. Leave the crystal within the grid work and repeat this process once a day for the next week.

Other possibilities for programming include dream state enhancement, emotional healing, astral traveling, mental clarity, chakra activation and balancing. Really, the ways in which programming can be applied is limited only by ones innovation and skill. I wish you well with your energies, enjoy using your programmed crystals. Miracles may occur for you!

Always know that clarity and integrity are the keys.

Cleansing, Charging, Programming And Activation Of Your Crystals

CLEANSING CRYSTALS

When you first get a crystal it will need cleansing because it will have picked up many energies on its way to you. There are several ways of doing this. It can be left in full sunlight for a day, also in full moonlight. Running water is good, fresh water, streams, rivers. Visualization of the crystal in a mountain stream or flooded with white light, is also a good way. Your intent should be pure and good, when using water do not use hot or warm water. Always cleanse after it has been used in any sort of healing and when you want to re-program it.

---

PROGRAMMING CRYSTALS

The only crystal that can be programmed is quartz. First make sure your crystal is cleansed. Sit in a quiet place and still your mind. Think clearly about what thought you want the crystal to hold, take a deep breath, holding the crystal in your left hand, blow your intention onto the crystal. This is a very powerful way to program the crystal. You can program a crystal to help you do most things. Try and use different crystals for separate things. Use one for healing, one for information storage, one for music, etc.

---

CHARGING CRYSTALS

Crystals need to be charged up, somewhat like a car battery. The way to do this is very similar to cleansing. Again in the sun, under the moon, any holy place, by stream or river. Leave as long as you feel is right. Don't leave them in draws or dark places, they like to be out in the open to work to their full potential.

---

WEARING CRYSTALS

Usually worn around the neck, stimulating the thyroid and increasing the efficiency of the immune system. Also assists the respiratory system and sore throats. When the crystal is pointing down it is grounding, soothing and calming. Giving energy to all systems. When the crystal is pointing towards this strengthens the spirit and gives a general uplift. A double terminated crystal (pointed at both ends) is excellent to use as it balances the two, giving a combination of both.

---

CHOOSING, CLEANING, CLEARING AND PROGRAMMING

All crystals need to be treated with respect and love. If they are used as a tool, do so with humility and gratitude. In choosing a crystal, it is necessary to find one that vibrates in harmony with the self and with the specific purpose for which you are bringing it into your life. Like attracts like. Each human and each crystal has its own vibration.
In front of you is a tray of crystal quartz and others. Look at them. Feel them. There are a number of ways to know which is right for you. Instant rapport - is there one that you are instantly drawn to? Strong energies - move your hand over the top and feel the energies from each and see which one you are drawn to. Physical attraction - is there one that you really like the look of and must pick it up and feel it?
Now you have your quartz crystal, what do you do with it? It now needs to have the outside cleansed. The best way to do this is with water. This cleans the outside of the vibrations of its travels from the miner to the buyer to the importer, to the wholesaler, etc. It also needs cleaning when it is dirty, dusty or has body oil on it from handling. Just as you need a shower or bath on a regular basis, so does your crystals. Many also like to bathe in the light of moon. My preference is the moon rather than the sun. All your crystals like to be cleansed, be it quartz or gemstones.
Quartz crystals store vibrations that come from sound, light, touch, emotions, other bodies, physical environment and effects those coming in contact with the crystal. Thus, they need to be cleared before working with them after they have been used; when it appears to lack vitality or looks dull; and to neutralize internal programs. Please remember that they are an energy storage device. To clear, you will hold the quartz in your hands and pulse with the mental intent to clear. Crystals are also programmed with the use of pulse breath. Both the clearing and programming are done with quartz crystals only as the colored stones have their own innate programs. When humans and quartz crystals work together, the crystal becomes a very sensitive and precise tool. They accumulate the intentions/programs of the user; magnify and amplify them; focus them and feed them back to the environment. When we program, the crystal is keyed to our personal vibration and thus it becomes an extension of self. The storage of programs in a crystal is similar to the storing of data on a computer chip.

CENTERING ONES SELF

to use crystals effectively one needs to have a centered state of mind from which to work. Crystals amplify whatever energies are around them so whatever you are feeling may well be enchanced when crystals are close by. To balance is not to make yourself neutral, rather you are entered with your feelings so that your emotions are balanced. Balance means you are feeling without allowing them to control, overwhelm or distract you from your intent. If, at any time you have difficulty in achieving or maintaining your center, put your crystals aside and return to them later. There are many ways to achieve centering. Here are but four. I suggest you try each, then use those which serve you best.

CENETRING BY RELAXATION

A calm and silent mind can reach into any universe. To begin, take a few slow, deep breaths and allow your body to relax into a comfortable position. Beginning with your feet, tense the muscles tightly and hold them for 10 seconds, then relax. Then, in sequence, repeat this action all the way up your body; your calves, thighs, buttocks, back, chest, arms, hands, neck, face, and scalp. Breath into each part as you go. On the in-breath you draw life to yourself. The out breath allows release to occur, here is your opportunity to dump the stress your body holds. When this part is done, go inwards to your own space and begin to imagine. Your imagining may take you into a forest, among the clouds, an enchanted garden maybe. The objective is to create a mood of tranquillity and peace. Once you have created your calmness, your crystal work may begin.

CENTERING BY WATER

Bathing is an act of cleansing the body and soul. When done intentionally for balancing it is very effective indeed! Take time out to enjoy a warm bath or shower. Water not only washes away the grime, it will calm a worried mind of stress when done as a sacred and deliberate act. Use bath salts and candles as one pleases. Feel deeply its warmth and wetness and allow it to soothe your unsettled mind.

CENTERING BY GROUNDING

To go about bare foot is to always be connected to earth. It is a sad fact that too many of us wear shoes to often and are insulated from grounding to the earth. Take a walk bare foot on the bare earth. There are definite balancing effects that are created when doing this. Its like drinking fresh spring water or the warmth of the sun. To walk in the open, anywhere that pleases you will do just fine. Your objective is to center, your activity is movement and extroversion. By placing your attention outwardly onto the environment, you connect with physical reality and your own universe will assume a more balanced prospective.

CENTERING BY BREATH

Breathing is the beginning and end of your life. The depth and quality of your every day life has everything to do with how you breath. In centering it is used as a means to achieve your focus and empower your intention. Understand that breathing is the most fundamental of the bodies actions you have control of. This fact gives us power when realized and applied. To use it for centering, take three long, slow, deep but comfortable breaths, intend by self command yourself to become balanced. The skills of centering and balance are rarely taught to us as children, so as adults we often need to break life long habits of stress as well as remembering to breath deep. Centering may seem difficult at first, but like any new activity, familiarity comes with practice. There will come a time when entered is a description for your life and very little will upset your being.

THE CLEANSING, CHARGING AND ACTIVATION OF CRYSTALS

CLEANSING

To cleanse a crystal is to strip away static and accumulated charge that the stone has picked up while in use. Because of the different virtues of each stone type, some will need more attention than others. For example citrine very rarely needs cleansing because of its particularly extroverted energy flow. Malachite however is very receptive to energy absorption (in fact this is how it works, by drawing into it's self the energy around it) and it is recommended to clean malachite regularly.

WHEN TO CLEAN?

You will often know by it's feel or emotive response. Train your intuitive sense to feel for a mis-emotion, turbulence or dullness in the stone. It may look cloudy or dull in color, waxy, sometimes even ugly. If the stone is being used for healing, cleansing should be considered following each session. Personal stones that are worn often and intentionally for empowerment purposes will also require a regular routine. If you expect to get optimum results from crystalline techniques you will be using, keep them running clear and strong. There are lots of ways to cleans, i suggest you choose at the time the most appropriate for each occasion. You will find what works for you, you will also come up with a few of your own ways too.

CLEANSING TECHNIQUES

BY EARTH. To bury a stone is to take it home. The symbolism it implies is perfect for the deep cleansing that this means gives. Dig a hole well into the earth (in a safe spot). Place the stones point upward, then cover it over. Water the hole well, then fill it with soil completely. This will ensure good earthly contact. It should rest there for at least 10 days.
WITH WATER. If you have a stream (any clear running water) near by, place your crystals in a cloth pouch and tie it securely in the waters flow. Even 10 minutes is helpful but 24 hr's is far better. An hour in a glass under dripping tap, under a fall of water on a rainy day, or even a rock pool at the beach. Any source of clean water fresh or salty will do.
A CLUSTER OR GEODE of clear quartz or amethyst is the go for jewelry and other delicate pieces. When you are not actually using a crystal assign its home on the cluster. I recommend a cluster as big as your budget can possibly muster or at least one the size of a saucer. The cluster itself will require attention from time to time so keep a thought for it to.
BY SMUDGING. The use of smoke to cleanse crystals is a tradition of the American Indian Shaman. Smoke permeates the etheric and is able to 'dissolve' ambient charge in an environment. It is a particularly useful means of cleansing (both crystal and oneself) when incorporated within a sacred routine or ritual.
USING SEA SALT. Fresh plain sea salt will draw charge like a poultice from the crystal. You need enough salt to cover the whole crystal within a jar. A few drops of water to get good contact then leave it be for at least 3 days. It's quite a wasteful means as the salt can be used but once for this.
USE INTENTION AND YOUR OWN CHI ENERGY. This means is by far the most direct and instant solution. Providing you have developed your sense for managing personal energy, it is quick and very effective. It is a combination of certainty and intention, (a focused mind with a clear crystal in sight) directed breathing (slow and long to build power then command a blow like a freak gust of wind) and a pulse of energy pressed, all elements at one time.

CHARGING

Crystals accumulate, hold steady and emit energy charges. Generally speaking, the larger a crystals physical mass, the greater it's clarity, fewer internal or surface fractures it has, the larger it's overall energy capacity will be.
Exceptions to this would include crystals that have been worked with extensively by an experienced individual, those crystals which have been 'en-lightened' by spiritual intervention and those that are members of matched sets of grid work crystals. A crystals given charge is the feel you get from it as it radiates. As you will see, the different 'moods' and dynamics that can be used are as perfect and quiet as a rose flower or as mighty and as loud as a storm.
A soul mate to quartz, the pyramid. They are coupled by geometric relationships at the twilight of physical time. These two do complement each other with perfection. Place your crystal at the center for charging of the stone and greater activation of the pyramid.
A quality geode of amethyst cut in 2 provides a wonderful recluse for well used crystals. Large amethyst clusters and geodes are excellent for both cleansing and charging purposes. I recommend to healers this means. It can handle a constant demand providing the cluster is it's self cared for.
for those of you who use crystal circles, you will experience the very magnified fields they create. Using the center of a quartz crystal grid work as a charge area will give an intense quartz charge.
Exposure to environment sources will create a response in a crystal. Put your moonstone to blue moon, or your diamond to the sun. The rhythms of nature and the rising tide can each be helpful, they all inspire.
Leave a crystal in an energy vortex, a sacred place or those areas filled with positive vib's.
The abundance of freshness can be captured from a waterfall or the beauty of a field of daffodils. Just like the recall of a fond moment in time, a crystal can replay any vibration you wish to inlay.
Charging a stone with your own energy is also a skill you will come to know. In the same way on clears a crystal with intent and breath, you can charge a stone with any concept or feel you can hold focused in mind.

ACTIVATION

Activation is distinctly different to charging. Charging is the renewal of energy stored within the stone. Activation is the expression of the crystals overall capacity and energy spectrum range. It's like a turbo charger added to an engine, an 'active' crystal is functioning at expanded levels of performance. As crystalline technology unfolds, the means to stimulate increasingly higher functions of purpose will be realized, but for the present there are known means to catalyze activation.
Exposure to very high or low temperatures. This must be done under well controlled conditions. Gradually is the key to avoid thermal shock, and a fractured crystal.
Extreme weather conditions such as lightning storms and blizzards will catalyze a stone.
Placing a crystal in the focal zones of strong electromagnetic devices such as tesla coils, plasma spheres or electrostatic generators will excite the crystal into greater activity. Laser light and magnetic are also known to amplify the responses fro crystals.
The most potentially effective means at this time is to set the chosen crystal at the center of a 12 point grid work. Place a capstone pyramid over the center to complete the array. Each day for 7, spend time focussing on the activation concept with the crystal. Definitely invite the greater consciousness to participate in the process. By the truest will, greatness may dwell here.
