Crystals for New Beginnings: Ring Out The Old, Ring In The New

The power behind new beginnings, whether it is for a New Year or a

new day, can be found in the strength of our mental attitude.

Encouraging words, affirmations and other tools can keep us along the

path we desire. So engaging crystals as a tool for guidance seems

only natural. Love, abundance, creativity are often the ideas we

strive for the most.

Ring Out The Old

Kyanite

This is excellent for surfacing and dissolving old beliefs. Kyanite

reminds us that everything which happens is for a purpose, and that

we are ultimately in charge. As we begin to look at the events of our

lives in this perspective we can find that beliefs which we accepted

as fact are brought to the surface. Placed on brow, this opens 3rd

eye and blue/throat Chakra. Enhances psychic images, foresight,

consciousness, meditation, communication. On 3rd eye; answers

questions, especially in imagery. Brings out our natural ability to

manifest things into reality via thoughts, visualization.

Tranquility.

Moldavite

This is excellent for surfacing and dissolving old beliefs. The stone

from outer space, both helps us become aware of our negative beliefs

about being in physical existence, and makes us more comfortable on

the earth plane. Variety of Tektite, but twice as rare! (fell to

earth). Dull outside, deep clear green inside. Powerfully expands

psychicness, channeling. On Heart Chakra. Eases longing to leave

earth. On pillow, brow, crown: Telepathic access to spiritual laws,

info from higher regions/places to help us and Earth to be healthier

and more spiritual. An intense meteorite helping people incarnating

from elsewhere be more comfortable here on earth (reducing asthma,

toxin sensitivity, emotional intensity, epilepsy...)(May make some

too spacey; be sure to ground self after use and before driving).

More rare, expensive and powerful than a plain "tektite."

Ring In the New

Amethyst Cluster

For many people deepened spiritual growth is a primary goal. Amethyst

is a helpful stone in realizing spirituality. Amethyst is a

transition stone; it bridges physical and spiritual consciousness,

and thus is very valuable in meditation. Psychicness, imagery, mind

quieting. Wear when sleeping or when awake to reduce anger,

impatience, and nightmares. Brow + Crown Chakra. Headaches,eyes,

scalp/hair, pituitary, pineal, bloodsugar balance. Especially helps

sobriety; alcohol/food/sex/other addictions. Famous ancient

detoxicifier (especially helped with poisons, alcohol). Dream recall.

Stone of spirituality, contentment, meditation. Provides common

sense, flexibility in decisions. Amethyst has a direct link to the

mind. It bolsters the production of the hormones, and strengthens the

cleansing organs, the circulatory system and blood, the immune

system, and body metabolism. It soothes the nervous system and

assists in the transmission of neural signals. Helps you feel less

scattered and more in control of your faculties. Memory skills and

motivation improve. Goals are clearer, more realistic, and easier to

achieve.

Clear Quartz

This stone is a helpful stone in realizing spiritual growth. Part of

spiritual development is knowing who we have been and deciding who we

want to be. For this expanded sense of self clear quartz is the ideal

stone. It is also a stone which can be programmed for any purpose.

Clear Quartz is thought to amplify both body energy and thoughts. It

can assist in the creation of power, clarity of thinking, meditation,

cleansing, clearing the aura, spiritual development and healing.

Clear Quartz is considered the "stone of power". A dedicated healer.

Pure white light passes through it easily, leaving all the colors of

the spectrum unaltered and giving substance to the argument that

Clear Quartz crystals can help balance all the elements needed to

make us whole and fulfilled. Amplify whatever influences are present

in an individual or location. Acts as a purifier and tunes into the

frequency of each individual. Will unblock specific areas or organs

blocked from transmitting or receiving the flow of energy throughout

the body. Helpful in guiding our search for the meaning and

importance of existence. Aids in meditation. Can be used in

conjunction with any other stone or gem for specific physical

problems. It will amplify the effects of individual stones and attune

the treatment to the energy of an individual person.

Jade

Solid to translucent. There are two varieties of Jade, Jadeite and

Nephrite. Nephrite is quite similar to Jadeite in its healing

abilities, but its colors are creamier and less translucent than

Jadeite; Nephrite is the more commonly found variety. Jade may come

in a variety of colors, green, blue, black, violet, white, yellow and

a reddish and brownish variety. Each with its own slightly different

use. Green: Health, wealth, longevity stone. Ancient Chinese used

also for courage, wisdom, justice, mercy, emotional balance, stamina,

love, fidelity, humility, generosity, peace, harmony. Lungs, heart,

thymus, immune, kidney and blood detoxification, nervous system.

Androgynous. A gentle, steady energy.

While all Jade has some healing influence, each color relates more

specifically to certain ailments or organs. Properties common to all

colors of Jade include its ability to mellow one's existence. Helps

one rid themselves of negative thoughts and energy. Strengthens the

body's filtration and cleansing systems and assists in teh removal of

toxins. Very beneficial to the heart in both physical and spiritual

senses. It is a very protective stone and will keep its wearer out of

harm's way.
