As a feng shui practitioner for over 30 years, I don’t profess to be an expert on natural crystals or their healing power. And yet, you can imagine that I have some interesting friends in the metaphysical realm, including the owner of an international crystal company.

I’ve learned a lot from co-owner Heather Askinosie, of Energy Muse, and many of my crystals have come from her warehouse. They even have a special room where crystals get cleared and charged before getting sent out.

Inspired to charge my own collection of crystals, I made a commitment to do it on a regular basis and took a picture of their beauty, amazed at what I have acquired over the years.  None of my crystals are so large that I cannot lift them.  And yet, I do have clients with crystals too large for one person to move.  In fact, years ago one client who described herself as a “crystal addict,” had some crystals as big as a refrigerator and many the size of a beach ball.  I even witnessed her staff moving crystals around her home with the aid of a dolly.  She also had an elaborate set of protocols for bringing crystals with her when traveling.

Many of us have heard of the healing powers of crystals, such as rose quartz for self-love and citrine for attracting wealth. However, these stones may not reach your aura and change your fortune unless you interact with them and “clear” them for the sensitive beings that they are.

Interacting with the crystals includes keeping them close to your body, such as in your pocket and this is why natural crystal jewelry can be so convenient. You can also meditate with your crystals and some even sleep with a crystal close by, such as under a pillow.

Clearing a crystal is a way to re-invigorate the positive influence and to also shed the crystal of any negative energy it may have absorbed, sitting on any surface in your home.  If “Alexa” and all your electronic devices are listening to your conversations, then surely the natural crystals in your vicinity are also being programmed in ways you might not want.

There are various ways to wash and clean a crystal, re-program them and enhance their power and that includes setting them out in the sun and even a full moon, on a regular basis.  Who wants to lug out their crystals every month?  And what if you don’t have a secure outside space, like a backyard to do that? With no outside space, you can still place small crystals on a window ledge.

Part of your success is just in establishing a ritual and remembering to do it.  This may necessitate that you write it down and link it to something else you already do. I made a habit of changing my HVAC filters in sync with the changing seasons and bathing my dog around the same time as his monthly flea and tick medication.  You can also create a mental reminder to cleanse your crystals, linking it to something you already do. If it is too much to gather up all of them, then try a partial cleansing with the crystals from certain rooms on a rotating basis.  For those who have crystals too heavy to move, you can do something right where they are, such as saging and/or playing high vibrational music in the room where they dwell.  You might even place small crystals charged outside by the sun and moon, to sit close by the big crystals that are too heavy to move on your own.

It’s also a fine idea to bring a hertz frequency generator into the room of crystals too heavy to move.  Cleansing and re-programming crystals is so important, that one shaman remarked that you might as well not have crystals if you don’t take care of them.  In the same way that a gun owner should know how to safely store a gun, a crystal owner should know how to take care of their crystals. What an analogy!
