Crystal And Energy Healing
Stone of the Month
April - Quartz

Quartz is the most powerful healing and energy amplifier on the planet because of its unique helical (Of or pertaining to, or in the form of, a helix; spiral; as, a helical staircase; a helical spring.) spiral crystalline form. Found worldwide, it absorbs, stores, releases and regulates energy and excellent for unblocking energy. When acupuncture needles are coated in quartz, the effects increase by 10%! It enhances muscle testing and protects against radiation. Quartz generates electromagnetism and dispels static electricity.
This crystal works on a vibrational level attuned to the specific energy requirements of the person needing healing or undertaking spiritual work. It takes the energy to the most perfect state possible, going back to be the dis-ease set in. It cleanses and enhances the
organs and subtle bodies and acts as a deep soul cleanser, connecting the physical dimension with the mind.

Energy and Crystal Healing
Crystal healing is a form of healing that uses crystals and/or gemstones. The crystals are mainly placed on specific areas of the body called "chakras." Chakra is a Hindu term meaning spiritual energy (see below). According to this teaching there are seven basic energy centers in the body, each having a color associated with it. 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's energy. Ultimately, they are used to cleanse the person from bad or negative energy believed to cause an illness. 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 "crystal healers", in some places, professional nurses are being trained to use crystals for their patients. Additionally, crystals can be worn, placed next to a person's bed as they sleep, and in some cases placed around a person's bath.
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.
Crystal healers argue that it truly works; however, there's no concrete scientific evidence to prove that it truly heals. People say they'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.
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's and the individual's energy field. The crystal is used to amplify, or realign, human 'psychic' or cosmic energy by directing vibration energy. To maintain the crystal, it's placed in salt water or covered with table salt. Maintaining the crystal helps keeps it clean from "environmental imbalance." It's said that it also needs to be recharged and activated through various methods.
