Meditating on a crystal
Crystal meditation has helped me learn more about crystals and their spiritual properties.
Here are the steps:
- Choose a crystal or rock you have at home — one that is between the size of a pebble and a golf ball, and not sharp or precious. It could fall onto the floor, so choose a stone that is not going to injure you or shatter if dropped. Nice stones to use are tumbled rose quartz, carnelian, rhodochrosite, tiger eye, clear quartz, malachite, lapis lazuli, amethyst, and citrine. Gather any pillows or blankets you need to lie comfortably on the floor and have a notebook or journal and pen nearby.
- Lie on your back and make sure you are comfortably supported. Close your eyes, and focus on your breath. Imagine that you are grounded into the earth with roots extending from your spine. Breathe for several minutes as you allow your limbs become heavy and relaxed.
- Beginning with the root chakra, place the stone at the bottom-most point of your pubic bone, between your legs, or on the floor under your legs. It doesn’t really matter where it is, just as long as it is an inch or so south of your torso. Focus again on your breath, and notice what arises in your mind’s eye. If you are a visual person, you might see a landscape, colors, shapes, etc. If you are a kinesthetic meditator you might experience a sensation in your body associated with the position of the stone. If you are an auditory meditator you might hear a particular tone. You might experience particular emotions, scents, and so on. Just breathe in a relaxed fashion, don’t force anything to happen, and notice what arises. You may not “see” it at first, but later when the stone is moved you might notice a contrast. If you notice anything, jot your notes in your journal.
- Next, move the stone to the second chakra, located just above your pubic bone. Again, relax, breathe for a few minutes, and notice what you “see”. Note any differences between the first and second positions of the stone. If you like you, can move the stone back to the root chakra, and see if you can identify a quality that is different when the stone is placed on one or the other of the two chakras.
- Now, move the stone to the third chakra, the solar plexus, located a few inches above your navel. Follow the same steps, relaxing into having the stone in this new position. Note anything that comes up.
- Continue to explore having the stone on each of the remaining chakras: heart (middle of the chest), throat (between your clavicle and your Adam’s apple), third eye (middle of your forehead), and crown. For the crown, it is fine to place the stone on the pillow above the top of your head.
Be patient
Don’t be dismayed if you are not noticing anything. It could be that the stone you have chosen holds very subtle energy. If that is the case, try another stone another time. Over time, if you do this meditation with different stones, you will develop the ability to feel the different energies of each stone — not just the qualities you read online about a specific crystal — but, the specific energy pattern that exists when your body is in the presence of that crystal. This can be valuable information for creating your own healing.
Paint what you see
After practicing this meditative technique with different stones for a few months I began to have the urge to paint the images I was seeing. My meditative style is quite visual, and in my crystal meditations, I often saw or felt striking landscapes, beginning deep underground the earth’s surface at the root chakra, to picturesque scenes in woods or water around the third chakra, up to columns of light at the crown chakra.
Here is a watercolor painting I did of my meditative experience with Smoky Quartz:
At the root chakra I experienced a pinkish-brownish crystalline structure.
At the second chakra I saw a cave with partly filled water, with an outlet to the sea.
At the third chakra I saw a cliff overlooking the sea with a seagull on it.
At the fourth chakra I saw a blue sky with puffy white clouds.
At the throat chakra I saw a view of the earth from miles above.
At the third eye chakra I saw a rainbow.
And at the crown I saw a column of light in the center.
Try it and have fun!
Intention
The Sacred Self-Healing Method relies on the power of intention. Intentions are more than goals, but your co-creative participation in your life path and healing. By setting an intention you add your desire to be a partner in your destiny, in combination with the seen and unseen forces at work in the Universe. Whether you are setting an intention for a successful root canal, for finding a great new job, or for a business meeting to go well, the act of putting forethought about the outcome into the process can be a powerful tool.
Intention is the driving force behind any energy healing modality, from Reiki to sound healing to prayer.
The universal equation for healing is:
Intention + Frequency = Healing
The “frequency” part of the equation is whatever healing modality is being used.
Intention can be used in health healing, job search, fitness, relationships, and pretty much everything.
