Vibration medicine incorporates the use of chi energies within living organisms such as plants, gemstones and crystals, water, sunlight, and even the foods we eat. Almost everything we touch and see around us has a living pulse inside of it. We need to look no further than the planet we live on to take advantage of its natural vibration remedies to help us balance the chi energies within our own bodies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Crystals and Gemstones&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;A shiny rock plucked from the dirt is one of the first treasures a small child will discover on his own. Rocks, a natural resource of earth, are everywhere. We pave our streets with gravel, our beach sands are made from the smallest crystals. We adorn ourselves with gold rings and silver bracelets set with colorful gemstones. Whether or not you realize it, within each gemstone and crystal is housed healing properties. Ever wonder why you are attracted to a particular stone and not another? Nature finds a way to get the stones that carry the healing and spiritual properties that are most needed to us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5924976460572387853/posts/default/1652826955820397456'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5924976460572387853/posts/default/1652826955820397456'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://8luckycrystal.blogspot.com/2008/11/natural-vibration-remedies.html' title='Natural Vibration Remedies'/><author><name>Conroy Chiu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00785521573814231300</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5924976460572387853.post-690146755839264740</id><published>2008-11-16T01:59:00.005+08:00</published><updated>2008-11-16T02:07:22.210+08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="choosing crystal"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Cleansing Gemstones"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="crystal therapy"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="crystals"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="vibration medicine"/><title type='text'>What is Crystal Therapy</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;A form of vibration medicine, crystal therapy involves the application of crystals or gemstones to facilitate healing. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;Rocks and gemstones house spiritual and healing properties that can be tapped into a variety of ways. Crystals can be carried or worn on the person, or they can be placed in a location where their healing vibrations can be felt by whoever is nearby. Healers also place stones on their clients&#39; reclined bodies to balance the chakras and aura.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;Each type of stone has its own unique talent. Gemstone colors, shapes, and textures all have special meanings. Crystal elixirs can be made by soaking crystals for a few hours in a glass of water. Crystals are also used for divination and meditation purposes. You can intuitively choose which crystals to use by noticing which stones you are attracted to. Keep your heart and hands open and allow the appropriate crystals to find their way into your life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:Arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:Arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyVcFsd2Cff4SH6y1JRLgqCGtKcuUl-_qA2rfYXPzoFe4lbiX345H7qGvcr1X52TEQkFrSYqN4A76m-zfhmkhB4HbQaDWnRTCubHhVVqGjgdlXkpOLxT1OGDuT8ORJM9-P4iB37AftTl-Q/s1600-h/crystalgemstone.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5268946429942400562&quot; style=&quot;WIDTH: 168px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 215px&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyVcFsd2Cff4SH6y1JRLgqCGtKcuUl-_qA2rfYXPzoFe4lbiX345H7qGvcr1X52TEQkFrSYqN4A76m-zfhmkhB4HbQaDWnRTCubHhVVqGjgdlXkpOLxT1OGDuT8ORJM9-P4iB37AftTl-Q/s320/crystalgemstone.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:85%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Crystals and Gemstones&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:Arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5924976460572387853/posts/default/690146755839264740'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5924976460572387853/posts/default/690146755839264740'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://8luckycrystal.blogspot.com/2008/11/what-is-crystal-therapy.html' title='What is Crystal Therapy'/><author><name>Conroy Chiu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00785521573814231300</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyVcFsd2Cff4SH6y1JRLgqCGtKcuUl-_qA2rfYXPzoFe4lbiX345H7qGvcr1X52TEQkFrSYqN4A76m-zfhmkhB4HbQaDWnRTCubHhVVqGjgdlXkpOLxT1OGDuT8ORJM9-P4iB37AftTl-Q/s72-c/crystalgemstone.jpg" height="72" width="72"/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5924976460572387853.post-2128666042699755840</id><published>2008-10-16T22:22:00.005+08:00</published><updated>2008-11-16T01:59:23.174+08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="activated"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="chakras"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="crystal healing"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="recharged"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="vibration energy"/><title type='text'>Crystal Healing - Who does it &amp; does it really work?</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;The originator of crystal healing is unknown. However, this practice has been around for centuries. People have used amulets, magical stones, and gems all throughout history (though mainly in the eastern cultures). It is now making its way into the western culture, primarily in the New Age and Occult movements. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;Crystal healers argue that it truly works; however, there&#39;s no concrete scientific evidence to prove that it truly heals. People say they&#39;ve been healed and feel better, but these cases are generally limited to personal testimonies. A lot of the scientific world has brushed these testimonies off as a placebo effect, selective thinking, wishful thinking, sympathetic magic, or communal reinforcement.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;Crystal healers commonly prefer clear quartz, because of its shape and color. However, since chakras have colors associated with each area, they may place the specific color crystal/gemstone on the same color chakras. The crystals/gemstones are said to have vibration frequencies that are shape induced, interconnecting the earth&#39;s and the individual&#39;s energy field. The crystal is used to amplify, or realign, human &#39;psychic&#39; or cosmic energy by directing vibration energy. To maintain the crystal, it&#39;s placed in salt water or covered with table salt. Maintaining the crystal helps keeps it clean from &quot;environmental imbalance.&quot; It&#39;s said that it also needs to be recharged and activated through various methods. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:Arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:Arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJIM5B37InUsSm-FEGe7iEfAOmWvioSaKvEwd0UBn0IKUV3m7bOckm7iu9hBn0q_XckKdqWPcpZ2_J-mmBrSLD9qOP5l1CJe0KiL5eF7qTyLPPCGBBl7vMnEsxwQS5VdF873DUktOgLUm0/s1600-h/crystal_healing1.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5257757655693820786&quot; style=&quot;CURSOR: hand&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJIM5B37InUsSm-FEGe7iEfAOmWvioSaKvEwd0UBn0IKUV3m7bOckm7iu9hBn0q_XckKdqWPcpZ2_J-mmBrSLD9qOP5l1CJe0KiL5eF7qTyLPPCGBBl7vMnEsxwQS5VdF873DUktOgLUm0/s320/crystal_healing1.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:85%;color:#000099;&quot;&gt;Quartz crystal under the light&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:85%;color:#000099;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:85%;color:#000099;&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5924976460572387853/posts/default/2128666042699755840'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5924976460572387853/posts/default/2128666042699755840'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://8luckycrystal.blogspot.com/2008/10/crystal-healing-who-does-it-does-it.html' title='Crystal Healing - Who does it &amp; does it really work?'/><author><name>Conroy Chiu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00785521573814231300</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJIM5B37InUsSm-FEGe7iEfAOmWvioSaKvEwd0UBn0IKUV3m7bOckm7iu9hBn0q_XckKdqWPcpZ2_J-mmBrSLD9qOP5l1CJe0KiL5eF7qTyLPPCGBBl7vMnEsxwQS5VdF873DUktOgLUm0/s72-c/crystal_healing1.jpg" height="72" width="72"/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5924976460572387853.post-3466396328471057638</id><published>2008-10-16T22:09:00.004+08:00</published><updated>2008-10-16T22:15:59.146+08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="crystal healing"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="crystals"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="gemstones"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="meditation"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="programming"/><title type='text'>Programming Your Gemstones and Crystals</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;After you choose and clear your gemstone or crystal, it is a good idea to dedicate it or program it. The purpose of programming a crystal or gemstone is to focus its abilities on something you specifically need, thereby magnifying the stone&#39;s intent through your own. The purpose of dedicating the stone to a high level healing energy or Goddess (God) is to protect it from negative energy. A crystal or stone that is programmed and dedicated in these ways becomes much more powerful and useful as a tool. This is a very simple process. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Programming Your Gemstone&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;· Hold the crystal or gemstone in your hand and sense its energy. With the stone being newly cleared, the energy will feel stronger and even more appealing that before.&lt;br /&gt;· As you sense this energy and appreciate it, ask quietly to be connected to the deva of the crystal or gemstone. Though not animate, stones are living things and the deva of the piece is the stone&#39;s life-force energy.&lt;br /&gt;· Once you feel you have sensed what you can from the energy, think of what you will be using the stone for. Think of these uses, and then quietly ask the gemstone if it is willing to act in the way you wish. The crystals energy may increase with a yes or seem to disappear with a no. If the stone accepts your intent, state in your mind that it be so. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Dedicating Your Gemstone&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;Once a stone is programmed, it will hold its intent until you or someone else reprograms it. To prevent any negative energy from attaching itself to your crystal you may wish to dedicate it.&lt;br /&gt;· Hold the crystal or gemstone in your hand and state clearly in your mind: &quot;Only the most positive high-level energy may work through this healing tool.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;· Focus on your intent for awhile, and then end your sensing (meditation) with &quot;SO IS IT.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;· The stone is now dedicated.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;You may also choose to dedicate your gemstone or crystal to a specific healing energy, for example, to a Goddess of healing. There are many healing goddesses, including Isis, Yemaya, Diana, and White Buffalo Calf Woman. For stones programmed for protection, Hecate or Kali are strong protection Goddesses.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioVRrkD6C90IDUiuk1b0cxtknQ2P6TJfnL0_iWQoIc8CAVfDEJtJWvdsyM-N1rI4n_gGP4G-gPkUNB0YWnVoGHv0W64Wpga4jVkCV-_pzCP5sTN1PGI4LLHJl-QGYtlD3j04Mgzv8xzZ4g/s1600-h/healing-hands.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5257754530695694162&quot; style=&quot;CURSOR: hand&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioVRrkD6C90IDUiuk1b0cxtknQ2P6TJfnL0_iWQoIc8CAVfDEJtJWvdsyM-N1rI4n_gGP4G-gPkUNB0YWnVoGHv0W64Wpga4jVkCV-_pzCP5sTN1PGI4LLHJl-QGYtlD3j04Mgzv8xzZ4g/s320/healing-hands.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:85%;color:#000099;&quot;&gt;Healing Hands&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5924976460572387853/posts/default/3466396328471057638'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5924976460572387853/posts/default/3466396328471057638'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://8luckycrystal.blogspot.com/2008/10/programming-your-gemstones-and-crystals.html' title='Programming Your Gemstones and Crystals'/><author><name>Conroy Chiu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00785521573814231300</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioVRrkD6C90IDUiuk1b0cxtknQ2P6TJfnL0_iWQoIc8CAVfDEJtJWvdsyM-N1rI4n_gGP4G-gPkUNB0YWnVoGHv0W64Wpga4jVkCV-_pzCP5sTN1PGI4LLHJl-QGYtlD3j04Mgzv8xzZ4g/s72-c/healing-hands.jpg" height="72" width="72"/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5924976460572387853.post-7891650078199625228</id><published>2008-10-16T19:26:00.003+08:00</published><updated>2008-10-16T22:07:59.358+08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="choosing crystal"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="crystal selection"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Dr.Emoto"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Message from water"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="vibration"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="vibration frequency"/><title type='text'>Choosing the Right Crystal for Your Purpose</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;Most people who want to use crystals have a particular purpose in mind. Although some families of minerals are more likely to yield the desired result, not all specimens from the same family have similar properties, whether physical (such as fluorescence) or metaphysical (such as healing). Additionally, not everyone reacts the same way when exposed to a crystal. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How to Find the Right Healing Stone&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First, let us examine what is the most important criterion when selecting a crystal: vibration match to your purpose. Everything around us vibrates at a particular frequency. This frequency is related to the movement of the atoms of our physical world and it changes overtime. Even during the course of a day, your own vibration frequency will vary. As you feel happy, successful and fulfilled, your vibration frequency is quite high. But when you do your taxes, worry about work, or get into a fight with a loved one, your frequency goes down.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Increasing Your Vibration Frequency&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you seek the help of a crystal, you are enlisting a powerful ally to &quot;raise&quot; your vibration frequency. No matter what the crystal is used for, its desired effect is always an increase in your vibration frequency. We often crave certain crystals because we have a great &quot;vibration match&quot; with them. This vibration match means that proximity to this crystal raises our vibration frequency, thus making us feel &quot;good.&quot;Selecting a crystal for a particular purpose is a great way to help yourself without having to devote much energy to it. The proximity of the crystal is constantly affecting your own frequency, guiding you upward toward your goal. Similarly, a crystal that does not have a good match is constantly draining you by lowering your vibration frequency. Hence, selecting the right crystal is of crucial importance.There are many books that describe crystals and their usage, yet most of them disagree on exact properties. This makes perfect sense if you consider that different crystals of the same family have different properties, and also that people will react to them differently. But this does make the selection of the right crystal more challenging, if you don&#39;t know how to proceed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Crystal Selection Process&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is a simple process to identify which crystal will work best for your specific goal.&lt;br /&gt;1. Clearly identify your purpose&lt;br /&gt;2. Look for a few crystal varieties that seem to support your goal (in a book, online, from a professional, etc.).&lt;br /&gt;3. Pick a specific specimen that offers vibration match to your frequency.&lt;br /&gt;That last part is best accomplished by holding the crystal in your hand or thinking about holding it (if you&#39;re buying online for example) and state your purpose: &quot;I want to lose weight.&quot; Always state the purpose in an affirmative sentence (so don&#39;t say: &quot;I want to stop feeling angry&quot;). Affirmative sentences allow the flow of energy (which is what you want), while negative sentences trigger resistances. Close your eyes while you state your purpose so you can focus inward.If you are more in-tuned with your emotions, look for a good feeling (light, tingly, happy, smiling, good memories come to mind, laughing are all good). If you are more in-tuned with your body, you can use muscle testing: balance yourself upright and let your body &quot;hover&quot; and let it fall in the direction it wants. If you fall forward, it means you have a good match. If you fall backwards, you don&#39;t. There are many different ways to use muscle testing for this purpose, this is an easy one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Opening Up to Your Crystals&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once you have found the crystal, make a conscious decision to let yourself be open to its influence. In order to interact with the physical world, we often need to shutdown our receptivity to outside influences. That can lead to a generalized shutdown where all influences are blocked. You might find yourself in avertedly fighting the crystal&#39;s influence.One last thing you can do to facilitate the influence process is to place your crystal close to a small water fountain. Do not place them in the water, as the mineral deposits might damage them. But anywhere near the fountain will do. This allows the very powerful chi of the water to propagate the vibration frequency of the crystal throughout your house or office. If you are curious to know how this works, you can read on the work of &lt;strong&gt;Dr. Emoto&lt;/strong&gt; and his famous book &lt;strong&gt;Messages from Water&lt;/strong&gt;. His work describes how the vibration frequency of intention can alter the molecular composition of water.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOmURq1aqK_V2-35XKht5RE6ZyLR2-Yis4EAiIcKSIHboMBhoiPYVPplmciE2xOI_7jG2Wa5jlzV5uEXHMhbDrfAqRS8_g1NhZygx0dKkxFBaQ9d-_WrG-wb8gcI4wgWvWeKE0_5Fxb5MH/s1600-h/7crystals+accessories.bmp&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5257749076852933522&quot; style=&quot;CURSOR: hand&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOmURq1aqK_V2-35XKht5RE6ZyLR2-Yis4EAiIcKSIHboMBhoiPYVPplmciE2xOI_7jG2Wa5jlzV5uEXHMhbDrfAqRS8_g1NhZygx0dKkxFBaQ9d-_WrG-wb8gcI4wgWvWeKE0_5Fxb5MH/s320/7crystals+accessories.bmp&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:85%;color:#000099;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7 colour crystal accessories&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5924976460572387853/posts/default/7891650078199625228'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5924976460572387853/posts/default/7891650078199625228'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://8luckycrystal.blogspot.com/2008/10/choosing-right-crystal-for-your-purpose.html' title='Choosing the Right Crystal for Your Purpose'/><author><name>Conroy Chiu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00785521573814231300</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOmURq1aqK_V2-35XKht5RE6ZyLR2-Yis4EAiIcKSIHboMBhoiPYVPplmciE2xOI_7jG2Wa5jlzV5uEXHMhbDrfAqRS8_g1NhZygx0dKkxFBaQ9d-_WrG-wb8gcI4wgWvWeKE0_5Fxb5MH/s72-c/7crystals+accessories.bmp" height="72" width="72"/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5924976460572387853.post-7289944041792495363</id><published>2008-10-16T19:11:00.003+08:00</published><updated>2008-10-16T22:06:56.941+08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="crystal altar"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="crystal bowl"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="crystal decoration"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="happy"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="healthy"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="love"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="meditating"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="peace"/><title type='text'>How to Create a Crystal Altar</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;Creating your own Crystal Altar is easy and inexpensive. What is a crystal altar? It is a special place where you keep your collection of crystals for meditation and/or for an energy center in your home or apartment. It doesn&#39;t require much room, and can be set up in a few minutes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;It can have crystals and stones, along with other items of nature, such as feathers, shells, wood, water, candles and even a prayer card. The point is you can use just about anything you choose. The important thing to remember is that each of these items should be special to you. I often put feathers on my altar that cross my path. You can use a shelf or dresser top as long as it is a place that will not be disturbed or that can not cause a fire when burning candles.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;Once you have assembled your altar, the intention is to bring light and energy to you and your surrounding area. You can program your stones and crystals for specific use or just use them for decoration and let them do what they do naturally, which is to dissolve and balance energy. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Meditating by your Altar Can Help Bring You Peace&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;Here is something I personally like to do. If I have a friend or family member that is having a particular problem with their health or relationships, I draw a circle on a piece of paper. In that circle I put the persons name, along with positive words that can help them with their particular problem. For example, if someone is having health problems, I put their name inside the circle, and then put the words: healthy, happy, peaceful, love, light, and resolution. Now I put that piece of paper on the altar along with some tumbled stones that I think might help with the situation. A piece of rose quartz can always help by bringing in love and self-love. If you are familiar with the colors of the chakras you might try a colored stone that relates to that part of the body they are having trouble with.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjo9Z-B-7VcFf99nsSK2o8Tj7stB-Hdqo6Umx0AVWKRqAlh9k-z3OZw9vthRSBnUtINZ_2-BOImCqs0FNNIHMuUMXsFMrtw1f6ItN2-TkedAH2PYV3g0dhysFv5Qmraq1_b62p7Ni0ILiHF/s1600-h/crystalbowl.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5257752821316757330&quot; style=&quot;CURSOR: hand&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjo9Z-B-7VcFf99nsSK2o8Tj7stB-Hdqo6Umx0AVWKRqAlh9k-z3OZw9vthRSBnUtINZ_2-BOImCqs0FNNIHMuUMXsFMrtw1f6ItN2-TkedAH2PYV3g0dhysFv5Qmraq1_b62p7Ni0ILiHF/s320/crystalbowl.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:85%;color:#000099;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Phylameana&#39;s Crystal Treasures&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5924976460572387853/posts/default/7289944041792495363'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5924976460572387853/posts/default/7289944041792495363'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://8luckycrystal.blogspot.com/2008/10/how-to-create-crystal-altar.html' title='How to Create a Crystal Altar'/><author><name>Conroy Chiu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00785521573814231300</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjo9Z-B-7VcFf99nsSK2o8Tj7stB-Hdqo6Umx0AVWKRqAlh9k-z3OZw9vthRSBnUtINZ_2-BOImCqs0FNNIHMuUMXsFMrtw1f6ItN2-TkedAH2PYV3g0dhysFv5Qmraq1_b62p7Ni0ILiHF/s72-c/crystalbowl.jpg" height="72" width="72"/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5924976460572387853.post-1399570820926733034</id><published>2008-10-16T18:48:00.004+08:00</published><updated>2008-10-16T18:59:25.300+08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Cleansing Gemstones"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Clearing Gemstones"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="herbs"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="moonlight"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="purification"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Reiki"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="salt water"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Smudging"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="sunlight"/><title type='text'>Cleansing and Clearing Gemstones and Crystals</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;It is important to clean any new gemstones that come your way to clear them of any energy that they may have picked up during their previous journeys. Also, if you use any of your stones as healing tools they should be cleaned before and after each healing session. Healers will dedicate or program crystals to increase the vibration energies of them. The programming also helps protect the stones themselves from absorbing harmful energies while they are in service.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;There are many different ways to clean your gemstones. Choosing the best cleaning method depends on the type of stone you want to clean. An hour in direct sunlight is more than enough to clean most stones. Certain stones will fade if left out in the sunlight, amethyst is one example. Keep your amethysts out of direct sunlight if you want them to retain their vibrant purple hues. Moonlight cleansing can take several hours or days. To expose a stone to all the moon phases (full moon to new moon) place the stone outside each evening at dusk (retrieving it before sunrise) for 28 consecutive days.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;Some stones will dissolve in water, whereas others love to be soaked in fresh water. I actually clean most of my stones under a running tap of cold water while brushing them with a soft-bristle toothbrush until they are sparkling clean.

Simply place the palms of your hands can inch or so away from the general area of the chakra you wish to locate. (See the picture) Close your eyes. Breathe regularly. Try to visualize a soft white light gleaming between your palms and your body. Within a fairly short time, you will probably feel a stream of magnetism/power/energy emanating from the chakra with which you are working.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some people achieve immediate success, but don’t be disappointed if this experiment doesn’t work for you the first time your try it. You may need to repeat the procedure several times before results become apparent. As with most things in life persistence pays – but it is important that you should remain completely relaxed. Tension and effort will result only in frustration.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Remember, too, that you are not playing games. You are dealing with your life force. Don’t be tempted to show off your newly acquired talents as a party piece.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5924976460572387853/posts/default/8221473906004169143'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5924976460572387853/posts/default/8221473906004169143'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://8luckycrystal.blogspot.com/2008/10/locating-chakras.html' title='Locating The Chakras'/><author><name>Conroy Chiu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00785521573814231300</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpcKs6dB4yD6pPcT9x7Lsv2qE9QxMJ9NLq-a5sFrQ9wz1LuIJuqBaAdJumPRW3_9sx0fwjJCrO76f83dPTlxuwlElwfuwVhEDxVFBv9ynmW47ltF8MchyphenhyphenJWHMi1JrMpOGVoYeAyIW10Z1x/s72-c/chakra-location.jpg" height="72" width="72"/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5924976460572387853.post-3232245126598947464</id><published>2008-10-13T22:14:00.002+08:00</published><updated>2008-10-16T18:40:25.707+08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="chakra"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="chakras"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="crystals"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="energy"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="sanskrit"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="wheel of light"/><title type='text'>Crystal And The Chakras</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;Within the body of every human being are to be found seven centers of energy, known as the chakras.

Although there is no concrete scientific proof, many people stand by this ancient form of healing.

Both the healer and the one being healed must concentrate on positive things during the healing process for premiere effectiveness. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;Crystal healing concentrates on the person as a whole being - emotions, body, spirit - not just the area of the physical body that needs healed.

The crystals are mainly placed on specific areas of the body called &quot;chakras.&quot; Chakra is a Hindu term meaning spiritual energy. According to this teaching there are seven basic energy centers in the body, each having a color associated with it. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;Some crystal healers place the same color crystals as the color of the chakras on the person to enhance the flow of energy. Crystals are said to direct the flow of energy to the person in a particular part of the body and bring balance to a person&#39;s energy. Ultimately, they are used to cleanse the person from bad or negative energy believed to cause an illness. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;Clearing out the bad spiritual energy alleviates the physical ailment. Crystals are used for physical, mental, emotional and spiritual healing. Not only do people visit &quot;crystal healers&quot;, in some places, professional nurses are being trained to use crystals for their patients. Additionally, crystals can be worn, placed next to a person&#39;s bed as they sleep, and in some cases placed around a person&#39;s bath. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIC4377KN1q0CBsTINqhbCkvIR_4tbCi_kFbF6Yc18c3C9PNvh6oFruv1gM4tJrTNkPW5QdnsJIk8RfGddv9y0ESbPAQ0IK-xG54hxdpeoCcMp2NYZ9l2-E5bNYQpv4s8iXY6ZulOEEoQw/s1600-h/cyrstal+healing.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5256612423638234562&quot; style=&quot;CURSOR: hand&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIC4377KN1q0CBsTINqhbCkvIR_4tbCi_kFbF6Yc18c3C9PNvh6oFruv1gM4tJrTNkPW5QdnsJIk8RfGddv9y0ESbPAQ0IK-xG54hxdpeoCcMp2NYZ9l2-E5bNYQpv4s8iXY6ZulOEEoQw/s320/cyrstal+healing.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;font-size:85%;color:#000099;&quot;&gt;A crystal healing layout&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt; &lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5924976460572387853/posts/default/9070599526216012008'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5924976460572387853/posts/default/9070599526216012008'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://8luckycrystal.blogspot.com/2008/10/what-is-crystal-healing.html' title='What is Crystal Healing'/><author><name>Conroy Chiu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00785521573814231300</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIC4377KN1q0CBsTINqhbCkvIR_4tbCi_kFbF6Yc18c3C9PNvh6oFruv1gM4tJrTNkPW5QdnsJIk8RfGddv9y0ESbPAQ0IK-xG54hxdpeoCcMp2NYZ9l2-E5bNYQpv4s8iXY6ZulOEEoQw/s72-c/cyrstal+healing.jpg" height="72" width="72"/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5924976460572387853.post-8270835122315815055</id><published>2008-10-12T13:23:00.014+08:00</published><updated>2008-10-13T01:30:54.611+08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Amethyst"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Citrine"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Fluorite"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="gemstones"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="healing gemstones"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Hematite"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Jade"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Kyanite"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Lapis"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Obsidian"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Rose Quartz"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Turquoise"/><title type='text'>Top 10 Healing Gemstones</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;Top 10 Healing Gemstones&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gemstones are delightful to give or receive as gifts.

My first turquoise was a stone set in a silver ring my grandmother gave me as a souvenir she picked up for me when she vacationed in Arizona. It&#39;s little wonder that my grandmother has served as one of my spiritual advisors from the other side since her transition from the physical realm. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. Kyanite &lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxwX7JZahv1WfuzevS8hmwccxNiJygyq_pz_AJi4aTiyYo-4VKF4PYU82F9_Iyxf69ogGEc7klYvLUrg2Tcdk6PKsTywZB6HJ0Sqa3NR7Fnb44vHH0SMs1xG0DkFGvSTTf0QzUwMxX0RjG/s1600-h/kyaniteblades.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5256135430956488962&quot; style=&quot;CURSOR: hand&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxwX7JZahv1WfuzevS8hmwccxNiJygyq_pz_AJi4aTiyYo-4VKF4PYU82F9_Iyxf69ogGEc7klYvLUrg2Tcdk6PKsTywZB6HJ0Sqa3NR7Fnb44vHH0SMs1xG0DkFGvSTTf0QzUwMxX0RjG/s320/kyaniteblades.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Kyanite is best worn near the throat chakra.

It seems likely that early allusions to crystals referred to clear quartz. The ancients also called it &#39;Holy Ice&#39; believing that a crystal was frozen hilt water spilled out from Heaven. Another belief was that a crystal had been made from water frozen at such a low temperature that it could never thaw out. Quartz was one of the first crystals to be used by man, and it is now one of the most important, being used as it is in a host of electronic devices, from quartz watched computer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5924976460572387853/posts/default/1141153756081672270'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5924976460572387853/posts/default/1141153756081672270'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://8luckycrystal.blogspot.com/2008/07/blog-post_16.html' title='What Is A Crystal'/><author><name>Conroy Chiu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00785521573814231300</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyJtmVMGx5X2s8a4Pacit6AybU47KL2WUL81WneXJUECdwsMZw5GVeJLNOsgm6hbLEV3UDxKhyphenhyphenYDt2THWi_YckOae2x6DP84Ni8Tq4SzN6NhSWVIs3V20ktBhs2YY8aKs8TZOatNfPzGSu/s72-c/whitecrystal2.jpg" height="72" width="72"/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5924976460572387853.post-4044151683527065026</id><published>2008-07-15T12:44:00.004+08:00</published><updated>2008-10-13T20:31:32.451+08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="crystal"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="crystal formed"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="earth"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="earth keepers"/><title type='text'>An Introduction To Crystals</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;Crystals are found all over the world, above and below the surface of the earth. Sometimes, smaller ones are washed out of caves by mountain streams, but most are to be found where they have been growing for millions of years, deep in the bowels if the earth. In these large natural caverns, the minerals condensed, gradually forming crystals. On a much smaller scale, crystals can be found inside hollow rocks (called ‘druses’) or even in stones (called ‘geodes’)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5223098720322467906&quot; style=&quot;DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmXkGuKdHR8x6TPpNRWBtkSOvLvNHLVhJFbYHDrNJlmi1DV-SDKsX_mYAUgKl-hvrlKHmdo2FUy0YwImFx-wstcF24KL1ZFAnvfM0fp0k2s7rAXzEC73TYCn7tjQCkc4r8adPHYopIcJYn/s320/whitecrystal.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt; &lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:85%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#000099;&quot;&gt;A single large quartz crystal&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;How Are Crystals Formed&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The right combinations of chemicals and conditions are needed. Quartz, for example, is made of silica and oxygen. Additionally, a temperature of more than 300 degrees C. is required, plus sufficient pressure - about 20,000 lbs per square inch – in the earth’s crust. This combination of circumstances allows the liquid crystal to form. As it cools the liquid solidifies and the regular crystalline structure – an essential feature of crystals – is formed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These stone can vary in size from microscopic but perfectly formed crystals to giants, such as the one three feet high and three feet wide, which is now in a French museum. Even more impressive is the massive single crystal discovered in India It is six feet tall and measures three feet across.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Earth Keepers&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More giant crystals have been discovered in America, in caves 60 feet underground. These large crystals are called Earth Keepers. They are said to contain not only the complete history of the earth, but also the wisdom of outer space and the entire universe. Here we fond the source of the belief that crystals are more than lifeless pieces of inert material. And from this conviction springs the whole world of crystal power, going back to the beginning of time and forward to today’s latest technological advances.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijaBQ9kTMTCq9pO5BGVcBEfZRn5tILet-RNrvStqOtJTVaO7oBtQkw86vmBbKpqn87a3KT_2ub_TpfiNdU8_MLMSQsCGQ7vBPjhBUsJIYtVI7XpUA2iwUDC_qwOYl9xmgHjtX3YJc-z8ez/s1600-h/chemical.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5254114886470509650&quot; style=&quot;CURSOR: hand&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijaBQ9kTMTCq9pO5BGVcBEfZRn5tILet-RNrvStqOtJTVaO7oBtQkw86vmBbKpqn87a3KT_2ub_TpfiNdU8_MLMSQsCGQ7vBPjhBUsJIYtVI7XpUA2iwUDC_qwOYl9xmgHjtX3YJc-z8ez/s320/chemical.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;font-size:85%;color:#000099;&quot;&gt;The right conditions, and chemical combinations are needed to form crystals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;font-size:85%;color:#000099;&quot;&gt;They are said to contain not only the complete history of the earth,&lt;br /&gt;but also the wisdom of outer space and the entire universe.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family:arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5924976460572387853/posts/default/4044151683527065026'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5924976460572387853/posts/default/4044151683527065026'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://8luckycrystal.blogspot.com/2008/07/blog-post.html' title='An Introduction To Crystals'/><author><name>Conroy Chiu</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00785521573814231300</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmXkGuKdHR8x6TPpNRWBtkSOvLvNHLVhJFbYHDrNJlmi1DV-SDKsX_mYAUgKl-hvrlKHmdo2FUy0YwImFx-wstcF24KL1ZFAnvfM0fp0k2s7rAXzEC73TYCn7tjQCkc4r8adPHYopIcJYn/s72-c/whitecrystal.jpg" height="72" width="72"/></entry></feed>
