Clearing Methods For Quartz Crystals

By Stephen Richards

Owning a quartz crystal can bring many benefits. But before using one you should consider cleansing your crystal. Water is a universal cleanser. If you have access to the ocean, ocean water is wonderful for this.

Though spring water, filtered or lake water can be used, if you can get ocean water it is the best cleanser. You can also add salt to the water you use as it has electrical qualities that aid in the cleansing.

You can simply rinse the crystal in water, or you can follow up by placing the crystal in a clear glass filled with water. Place the glass on your windowsill, ideally facing the south, to charge in the sun.

The moon can also be used for cleansing and charging. Some people make a ritual of burying their crystal under a full moon, to take advantage of the magnetic forces of the moon in combination with the earth. You may also place your crystal in the direct light of the moon.

Here are the wide ranging benefits you get by using a quartz crystal:

* The quartz crystal has found to be of tremendous use in enhancing the mental and physical strength.

* Disorders of the bone and gastrointestinal tract have found to reduce considerably. Chronic fatigue, depression and even arthritis have found to be markedly diminished.

* Quartz is held on the third eye chakra for increased clarity of psychic vision.

* The quartz has the ability to focus our thoughts and purposes, and augment them also. The thoughts act as an energy form while the purpose helps to give structure and force to the energy.

* All acts of meditation, healing, protection, manifestation and energy channelling can be effectively done with the help of the quartz crystal.

* Crystals emit vibrations that affect the wearer's body. Certain specific varieties are believed to have positive effects when utilized on particular energy centres (chakras) of the body, much like deep therapeutic massage and acupuncture.

Mental health: Soothes the mind considerably, increases tolerance levels and helps to fight off criticism in us. The sense of owning moral responsibility for our actions and a straight character which is dependable and powerful is made possible by the crystal. Abolishes self doubts altogether, gives a tranquil mind, helps take a proper perspective of things and enhances intelligence and wards off any feeling of uncertainty.

Emotional benefits: stone of courage; calming energies reduce stress; enhances peace for sensitive people; gives support to anyone who is overwhelmed by responsibility; clears blocked communication and promotes self-expression; helpful in understanding underlying emotional states and interpreting how you feel; soothes fear;

Physical benefits: useful for sore throats, swollen glands, and thyroid glands; harmonizes pituitary and thyroid, regulating hormones and growth; strengthens the body's cleansing organs; aids the eyes, jaw, teeth and stomach; useful for counteracting short-sightedness and long-sightedness; calms overreactions of the immune system and autoimmune diseases.

Spiritual health: The crystal aids in tying up all loose ends and completion of a process entirely. Helps to be more compassionate, instinctive and makes meditation more powerful. The conscious state of mind and spiritual presence is heightened aiding in making us more helpful towards society. All the chakras are kept in total alignment and the aura around us is kept well protected. There is better communication on a higher plane making the physical and the spiritual planes meet.

Environmental benefits: harmonises surroundings; protects against pollutants. Our purpose and destiny in the human form is to unite with cosmic consciousness by raising our vibrations and radiating our light on the material plane.
