Rocks, Stones, Gemstones--Metaphysical Purposes

[Miss Scarlett]

Today's stone is Window Quartz also known as Seer Stones or Ema Eggs.

A river tumbled stone found in the Ema River in Southern Brazil, these amazing stones are created when river-washed crystals have a face cut off and polished so that you can see inside the crystal. The outside of these crystals look as if they have been sand blasted by the river.

These crystals are good for scrying/gazing and meditation. They allow access to the knowledge of ancient civilizations. You can also focus on a certain era and area to connect to this knowledge. These crystals allow you to remember what you were given to learn in this lifetime before you came into this body. It can also help you to see your soul's pathway after "death".

Place one upon your windowsill to ward off negativity and aid you in finding your strength, calm, and resolve.

In addition to clear quartz, these wonderful stones can also be found in Smokey Quartz, Rose Quartz and Amethyst.

Today's stone is Eilat Stone.

The National Gemstone of Israel, Eilat Stone, aka King Solomon’s Stone, is a stone of various beneficial metaphysical properties. This is due to its unique mineral composition of Chrysocolla, Turquoise, Malachite, Azurite, Dioptase and Copper. This combination radiates a vibration that possesses special emotional and physical healing properties.

One will benefit greatly from wearing this stone, as its main priority is to assist one in attaining spiritual growth by stimulating the higher mind to access deeper wisdom. It clears and activates all Chakras, including the Thymus Chakra, aligns the subtle bodies, stimulates intuition and helps in the development of the psychic visions, aka clairvoyance.

Place this stone in any area to clear and energize the energy field. However, no matter where it is placed, the ‘force’ of the crystal stays attuned to the one to whom owns it.

Eilat Stone is used to embrace individuality, promote harmony, calm the mind and facilitate meditation by releasing one of any and all negativity. Another benefit of this stone is its grounding abilities. It doesn’t just attune one to Earth, but it aids in communicating with nature spirits. It, also, helps one attune to the perfection of the universe.

Today's stone is Tantric Twin Quartz. It's one of my favorites and I am caretaker of several.

Tantric Twin Quartz is the name given to pairs of Quartz points growing together along their sides, with two separate terminations.

Tantric Twin Quartz assists to harmonize and balance the energies of two people involved in a relationship. When the two Tantric Twin Quartz crystals are of equal size, they act to attract one soul partner, if they are unequal in size, they act to build unconditional love and strengthen the bond between parent and child.

Tantric Twin Quartz can be used to stimulate healing of any disease, as its function is to harmonize the higher vibrational energies of the aura, light body or subtle body. It is believed that physical disease is a consequence of disharmony in the energies of the subtle body.

Tantric Twin Quartz assists one connect with and bring into balance ones life purpose with ones soul purpose.

Tantric Twin Quartz is also known as Soul Mate Quartz.

Today's stone is Selenite.

Selenite is a very peaceful, calming crystal that has the ability to clear away negative energy. If you feel stressed out, tired or angry, holding a Selenite crystal can help clear away the negative energy and leave you feeling more calm, and centered. Keep a large peace of Selenite in a room, to help ensure a peaceful atmosphere. Or, keep a Selenite crystal next to your bed to create a restful space and help you have a good night's sleep.

Getting its name from Selene, the Greek goddess of the moon, Selenite has properties that make it truly unique for spiritual and metaphysical purposes. It is related to peace, purity, and higher consciousness and is often used to assist with meditation, as well as astral projection.

Selenite is commonly associated with the seventh, or Crown, chakra which is the energy center that is located just above the crown of the head. This is the chakra of divine wisdom, Spirit and Unity. Just as the Root Chakra shows us of our connection with Earth, the Crown Chakra shows us our connection with our spiritual Source. Physically the Crown Chakra governs the brain, nervous system and pituitary gland. For these reasons, Selenite is helpful for bringing balance to the Crown Chakra, and help you feel a stronger connection with all of creation.

Because of its calm inducing properties, Selenite is an excellent crystal to use during meditation. Place one nearby while you meditate or hold a piece in your hand to help keep your mind clear, lucid and calm. Selenite also has the unique ability to filter out ego-based messages of the mind; those negative messages your mind tell you, that make you feel fearful, angry or victimized. Because of that helpful filter, Selenite can allow you to get in touch with your Higher Self, and expand the awareness of your mind and spirit.

Because Selenite is associated with Higher Truth and our relationship with the spiritual plane, it's not a crystal to be kept stored away in a drawer or used merely as a decoration. Good owners of Selenite will respect it, and work with its energy in a cooperative manner every day.

As you make contact with the higher realms, it is common to find that you will see quite strong colors, including lovely golden light. Selenite crystals can be used to grid the home to aid the removal of negativity, as long as you keep in mind that it should be kept dry.
