I am a crystal therapy practitioner and I’ve been working with crystals for over twelve years now and
I have several books on crystals and have read many more;-
Scientifically, crystals differ in physical properties, i.e., chemical composition, colour, shape, size,
rarity, mineral class, in hardness, cleavage, optical properties, heat conductivity and electrical
conductivity.
Some say "The properties of a crystal are determined by the individual who is working with the
crystal."
From my point of view, ‘Who are we to determine the properties of a crystal, labelling or defining
something limits its potential.’
Each and every living thing has its own, unique energy signature/vibration/frequency. No two
signatures are alike, no vibration is the same at any given time. The crystals change according to a
variety of stimuli (environment, other people, experiences, challenges, vibrations, frequencies, etc).
So the connection to a crystal, is a very personal one, even two identical crystals will not have the
same signature/vibration/frequency.
The conscious shift for me, is that I no longer refer to the books I have or rely on the knowledge I
have gained/learnt. I now just trust what I intuitively feel, either a crystal resonates with me/my
client or it doesn’t. For me, the crystal aligns itself to what it needs to be and what it does, it is not
defined to have certain unique energy signatures/vibrations/frequencies and healing properties, it is
not aligned to certain chakras/elements/compass points/astrological or zodiac signs, numerical
vibrations, human issues/ailments or parts of the human body.
It’s when we program a crystal that we then restrict/define its properties and limit its potential so
that it behaves how we need or want it to be.
So I how do I select a crystal for myself or a client, I get myself or ask the client to focus on the
area/issue to be worked on. Intuitively I will then select a crystal and see whether it resonates with
me or my client. It will either go cold, get warm or get hot, sometimes there will be an electrostatic
sensation a buzz or even goose bumps from head to toe. If nothing happens then we will select
another crystal.
Sometimes more than one crystal may be needed, I use the same method above to select each and
every crystal.
