Basics of Crystal Healing

ANGELITE: Use at the 5th Chakra (Throat Chakra) for manifesting peace and good will toward all beings, for communication with the Angelic realm, to stimulate telepathy, for grounding during meditation, to induce astral travel, and shamanic journeying, to increase awareness, for protection from negative energies, to aid in voicing one's inner truth, to bring compassion to one's life both toward and from other beings, to improve one's understanding and comprehension of astrology, for acceptance of one's life on the earth plane, to become inspired in spiritual matters, to initiate the channeling state, to balance the thyroid gland, to control body weight, and to remove the heat from sunburned skin.

AVENTURINE, GREEN: (Also known as Green Quartz) Use at the 4th Chakra (Heart Chakra) for healing the physical body, to increase wealth and prosperity, to protect gardens and homes from electromagnetic pollution, to turn negative energy into positive energy, to encourage compassion, to stimulate will power and confidence, for use during past life regressions and ascensions, for balance of the mind, body, and soul, to stimulate creativity in artistic endeavors, to promote peace and calming, for protection, to aid in problems related to the nervous system, to help prevent heart-related conditions such as heart attack, to relieve symptoms of allergies, to remove headache and migraine pain, and to diminish acne and other skin problems.

BISMUTH: Use at any chakra. Bismuth is a semi-metal. In nature, it is silverish and is not found in its crystallized form. Bismuth does not crystallize naturally, because there is usually not enough space for its crystals to form properly. With a little help from humans, it is melted and recrystallized into a beautiful iridescent rainbow form. Bismuth is excellent for improving concentration and visualization, especially for use during Shamanic journeying. It aids in the shape-shifting practices of the brujo/bruja. It has also been known for its ability to lift one's awareness to the celestial realm while maintaining grounding. Bismuth is a stone of transformation, moving things from chaos to order. In addition, Bismuth has been known to promote cooperation in group situations and also in relationships.

BLOODSTONE: (Also known as Heliotrope) Use at the 1st Chakra (Root/Base Chakra) or at the 4th Chakra (Heart Chakra) for cleansing the blood, for general healing of the physical body, to transform negative energy into positive energy, to aid in receiving guidance from the inner self, for grounding, for protection, to encourage dreaming, to increase vitality, to promote feelings of courage and confidence, to aid in trusting one's intuition and acting upon it, to stimulate the immune system, to detoxify the physical body, and to aid in the proper blood circulation.
