OUR THOUGHTS CAN FORM CRYSTALS
Crystals can be made from just about anything. In fact, most minerals naturally occur in a crystalline form. When we say someone's thoughts suddenly "crystallize" around a solution, we're all crystal clear on what that means: that a jumble of swirling possibilities resolved itself into something still and orderly. There have been many scientific studies showing that our thoughts, intention, and energy can form crystal formations within water.

YOUR COMPUTER IS A CRYSTAL!
|

Crystals are used in modern technology, including watches, radios and computers — as proof that they can transmit energy into the body, much as a battery does. It is true that quartz, which is made of silicon dioxide, can generate a charge or voltage.
|
Our bodies contain a voltage of around 100 watts resting, and crystals conduct electricity. Because all gemstones come from Mother Earth , they have extra electrons that are stored within them from the creation of their structure. It is these electrons that enable Crystals to become transducers! When you work with crystals, the energy of the stone actually blends with your own energy, thereby transforming and/or amplifying your vibrational frequency or the energy within your body.
HOW ARE CRYSTALS FORMED?
Crystals can be made from just about anything. In fact, most minerals naturally occur in a crystalline form. Crystals are orderly arrangements of pure substances. For example, diamonds are pure carbon, and quartz is pure silicon dioxide. Crystals form as their component atoms move closer and closer together. This can occur as pressure and temperature decrease, or as a solvent evaporates.

The fantastic crystal structures in geodes, or hydrolites, form as water evaporates from the internal spaces of the stones. However, most crystals are found in rocks that have a volcanic origin. As the super hot molten rock - called magma - cools, different substances will crystallize out. Sometimes very large crystals, weighing up to several tons, can be made as magma slowly cools below the surface of the Earth. Crystals also can be formed when land masses move. The crust of the earth can buckle and fold, raising mountains and creating new faults. Such stresses create great pressures and temperatures that can change the crystal structures in rocks. These rocks are called metamorphic rocks. Crystals in metamorphic rocks are generally pretty small.
how does crystal healing work?
The word Chakra comes from an ancient Indian language known as Sanskrit, chakra means vortex, spinning wheel or circle. Chakras are the major centres of spiritual power in the human body and are circles of energy which balance, store and distribute the energies of life all through our physical body along the subtle body. The subtle body is the non physical body or otherwise known as our soul or spirit, which overlays our physical body. There exist lots of techniques to balance the chakras. Mostly techniques to open chakras are used.

Chakras are centers of energy, located on the midline of the body. There are seven of them, and they govern our psychological properties. The chakras located on the lower part of our body are our instinctual side, the highest ones our mental side. Ideally, all chakras would contribute to our being. Our instincts would work together with our feelings and thinking. However, this is usually not the case. Some chakras are not open enough (being under-active), and to compensate, other chakras are over-active. The ideal state is where the chakras are balanced. Find more info on chakras here.

Crystals are alive like everything else in the universe. They vibrate at different levels depending on their composition and color. They have certain characteristics that make them wonderful allies to us. In crystal healing, you can place them on or near the body in order to effect healing change. They do this by allowing the rate of their vibration to effect change in the rate of the spinning energy centers of the chakras, clearing out any negativity and allowing them to function at peak capacity. We need to be in balance to be in perfect health. Crystals work with us to restore that balance.
Memories can be held in our cells, joints and bones. As each cell in our bodies has consciousness, so it can hold memory. This is now being scientifically demonstrated by Quantum Physics. A good example of this concept can be found in the images of water crystals. Crystals can help to free up what has become stuck.
Blockages in the flow of energy through the meridians or subtle energy pathways will cause illness or disease in the organs supplied by that meridian. Western medicine finds this hard to accept but Chinese medicine, thousands of years old, has always used the meridians in all their medicine such as acupuncture.
