You Are Your Own Crystal Guru
About every 2,150 years, the sun changes its location in relation to the stars we recognize from Earth as zodiac constellations. In astrology, this marks the beginning of a new age which brings a major shift in energy. Presently the age we are in/are currently entering is the Aquarian Age. One of my favorite aspects about the Aquarian age is that you are your own Guru. All of your answers are contained within. How does this apply to crystals and their metaphysical properties?
Having worked with crystals as long as I have and working with people who use them for healing and other purposes, I have seen that we are guided to the right crystal at the right time for the right reason. It just requires we go within and listen. Traditional knowledge about metaphysics and crystals does not always apply the same to everyone. For example, one person feeling that amethyst is calming while another person may find it energizing. Both of them are right. This is why it is so important for you to trust your own energy and intuition and gravitate towards stones that make you feel good and help you on your healing journey.
How to select crystals that vibe with you
All the information you need about a crystal is there for you to see and experience. One way you can dive into gleaning the information about a certain crystal is by its outward appearance. The color, structure, shape etc. all offer indicators as to what the crystal is about. Color corresponds to the energy systems in our body known as Chakras. Structure and shape corresponds to how the crystal emits its energy.* Most important is how it feels. Hold the crystal in your hand. How does it feel to you? Energizing? Calming? Do you feel happy? As you are standing, close your eyes and hold the crystal to your heart center. If you tilt forward, that is a “yes” answer that the crystal is meant for you. If you tilt backwards your body may not be resonating with that crystal at that time.
Ask the Universe to guide you to the crystals you need. Crystals will speak to you if you tune in to their energy and vibration. Do you feel any physical change when you hold it or are around it? Oftentimes, people will notice a vibrating energy when they hold a stone. Does it matter which hand you hold it in? Maybe- try both hands and see what differences you notice. Remember, the difference may be subtle. Again- trust your intuition about which hand to hold it in.
Crystals and healing stones are meant to be enjoyed! Although our inclination may be to intellectualize the process of working with crystals, it really is an intuitive process. Try not to over think it and trust your own gut. Be your own Guru. The stone means to you what it means to you. Go to the crystals you love and they will love you back!
