Crystal in Reiki Practice

Monday, 06 October 2008 12:57

If some chemical compounds or elements change their form from gases or liquids into solid, then it will form Crystal. The unique attributes of each type of Crystal are believed to have special influences to our subtle body. For example, Quartz have one type energy called piezoelectricity that is used in some watches, now I know what Seiko Quartz mean

Crystals have been used for healing, among other purposes, for thousands of years and by many ancient cultures. Although it isn't essential neither not all crystal healers are Reiki Practitioners, but some Reiki Practitioners combined their Reiki procedures with Crystal usage. I choose to use Crystal if my friends who need help, I prefer not calling them patients because I'm not a doctor; really need an extra treatment, and of course if they have an open mind towards Crystal in healing.

Some books relate specific crystal to the Chakra regarding to its corresponding color, as we know each of the 7 Chakras have their own color:

No.	Chakra	Location	Function	Color	Crystal
1	Muladhara	Base of spine	Grounding, stability	Black, brown, red	Hematite, Jasper, Red Garnet
2	Svadhisthana	Genital area	Procreation, sensuality, creativity	Orange	Carnelian, Citrine
3	Manipura	Abdominal area	Ego, digestion	Yellow	Calcite, Yellow Jasper
4	Anahata	Heart	Love, compassion	Pink, green	Aventurine, Rose Quartz
5	Vishudda	Throat	Communication, harmony, knowledge	Blue	Amazonite, Bluelace, Agate
6	Ajna	Between brow	Inner wisdom, intuition	Dark blue, purple	Amethyst, Lapis Lazuli, Sodalite
7	Sahasrara	Crown of head	Spirituality, enlightment	White	Clear Quartz, Amethyst

And there are also theories that relate Crystal to our Astrology and birth month. If you already sensitive to energy, you can test it yourself while you shop for your first Crystal. Put your hand close enough to the Crystal as if you are going to take it, feel the vibration, do they attract you suddenly like an old friends or not? If it does then it is your Crystal.

Or if you want a specific purposes of Crystals, choose them regarding to their purposes. You can Google for specific Crystal you are interested to and find their function. I can't list them all here cause there are so many of them. For example my favorite are: Black Tourmaline for protection, healing and good fortune; Amethyst to support the Third Eye (Ajna), purification, happiness; Citrine for psychic power, cleansing, protection; and last but not least Clear Quartz for its ability to be programmed to various purposes.

Not necessary like that, Clear Quartz can be programmed to clean each of the Chakras so you will need only one Crystal.
It is the matter of vibration of the energy that will resonate with the Chakra, each have its own pair. You can substitute it but it will not affect better than its original pair.
I have tested you before when you wanted to buy it, I asked you: “are you really want this?”. You seemed pretty sure back then, eventhough I have showed U other types, and now you see you have the connection right?
BTW, nice selection, Rose Quartz for the unbalanced Anahata Chakra

I have question here… If we want to open those 7 Chakras and we’re going to use Crystal, do we need to have all of those Crystal?
Hey, you didn’t tell me about ‘old friend vibration’ when I picked Rose Quartz as my first Crystal. Or maybe I wasn’t sensitive enuff at that time?? I wish that I had that 1st impression
