CLEANSING YOUR CRYSTALS

********************
The following is from a very gifted individual by the name of Aesclepius and he knows his crystals and how to use them. If interested in more information contact him by e-mail at   asclepus@netcomuk.co.uk
He has given me permission to share this with you readers. Aesclepius, you are a kind and gracious
person, thank you from the editor and readers of White Dove's Message

Having now chosen your crystal or gemstone (whichever method you may have used) it is now very
important that you 'cleanse' it.

Quartz crystals and gemstones easily attract all kinds of 'vibrations'; negative as well as positive. The
stones are always 'open' to receiving impressions from everyone and everything around them.

Your stone, which you have just selected, may well have traveled many thousands of miles before
coming to you - and may well have acquired many negative energies and 'vibrations' in its long and
arduous journey to find you.

Therefore, before starting to use your stone for any purpose whatsoever it is very important that you first remove any of these unwanted negative 'vibrations' and disharmonious energies before you commence to use your stone. You must do everything you possibly can to ensure that only the most natural - and purest - energies remain within your stone.

The cleansing method which you use is always a matter of personal choice, sometimes dependent upon the amouth of time which you have readily available, but I strongly recommend that you use one of the following cleansing methods which I myself have found to be very successful.

1) Hold your stone in either your left or right hand (according to personal preference) and say these
words. "I will and command that this stone be self-cleansing." As you repeat these few words (whether mentally or orally) you should visualize the negative energies falling away from your stone and only the natural, and pure, energies remaining.

2) Water is a wonderful universal cleanser. Hold your stone under cold flowing water from the tap
(cold or luke-warm water only. Never use hot water!) And, again, visualize all the negative energies and 'vibrations' being washed away and only the natural, and pure, energies remaining. When drying your stone after cleansing in water never attempt to dry your stone with a towel or cloth. always allow your stone to dry naturally-preferrably from the rays of the sun. The sun, of course, is also a very powerful energizer and should be used whenever possible. If, however,...there is little or no sun around, then you should allow your stone to dry as naturally as possible in the warmth within your home.

3) Immerse your stone in salt water for several hours. Dry as in #2

4) Bury the stone under the earth in your garden. Our planet Earth consists of at least one third
quartz and the very strong and powerful magnetic energy field in the actual earth will 'cleanse' your
stone of all its negativity very effectively. (If you should own a dog - be very careful! Dogs find it great fun to dig up crystals....)

5) Place your stone on a large quartz crystal cluster for a few hours. The very strong crystalline
energies present within the cluster will soon neutralize any negative energies to be found within your
stone.

There are other methods - but the above are the ones that I prefer to use.
