Those of us in the Pagan Kitchen regard our personal crystals as a part of who we are, with our energy and we prefer others not to handle them.
Our energy, our crystals.
While that may sound over protective, crystals can collect various forms of energy from emotions, thought, touch, and a host many other sources.
When other people handle your crystals, they leave their energy imprint and all that come with it.
But this is something you must follow your intuition on.
We have some crystals that are meant to be touched and enjoyed by others who come and visit, giving them opportunity to experience the energy of crystals.
If someone visits us and are drawn to picking up our public crystals, it's fine with us, It’s obviously what they need.
The crystals are calling to them to be held.
We believe the crystals know what they are doing, they are far more evolved than we are.
The crystals do their work by attracting those who may need help in some way.
By simply holding a crystal they are drawn too (consciously or unconsciously) they will receive the energy they may need.
These public crystals are frequently smudged, cleared and charged because of all the handling.
It's just like when you first get a crystal, or after you use it for any healing work, or whenever you feel that the crystal lacks light, luster, and energy.
Becsuse crystals can be easily cleared, the public crystals work great for us.
Sound is the most effective tool to use in clearing crystals and stones.
Using sound vibration to clear your crystals means that you can clear many stones in the same period of time that you can clear a single stone.
If you produce an effective sound for a couple of minutes, it will clear your stones.
Once your crystals have been cleared, they will begin recharging themselves using their natural channel of attunement with the Earth.
So, next time your stones are feeling “tired”, try clearing them for a few minutes with a strong sound vibration.
But when it comes to our own personal crystals, we keep them to ourselves.
We form bonds with our crystals.
They are special, part of us.
When chose our personal crystals the attraction was far from random.
We are drawn to the crystal because there is a connection.
Even though stones and crystals aren't vocal like we are, they definitely have their own unique voices.
Someone compared it to choosing a puppy or kitten.
You would spend time with several animals to determine which is most compatible with your energy, and yours with the puppy or kitten.
When choosing stones or crystals it's the same thing.
You spend time to feel the connection and see how the interaction feels.
Not only are you determining how you feel about the specific stone or crystal, you are also feeling the frequency of each and feeling how that frequency interacts with your energy fields.
When a connection is made, you will feel a sense of ‘rightness’ that the stone or crystal has chosen you as well as you have chosen it.
As far as sharing your personal crystals, that's a decision only you can make.
You might feel comfortable with members in your circle, your family, close friends, it's all up to you.
There's no right or wrong here.
The simple solution is, keep your private crystal private and allow your public crystals to to touched and enjoyed by all.
