Cleansing and Recharging crystals -I (Types of Crystals)

This article has the aim to shed light on crystals cleansing, recharging and programming for daily use. There are so many different practices and each person creates his own special rules and rituals for crystal cleansing. Even so there are some specific interesting details about crystals, that I want to reveal here. It`s your personal choice if you `ll implement these methods for your crystal cleansing, or not. However the same as with affirmations, it`s good to collect information needed, and then make your own affirmation by connecting with heart.

    Crystals have different properties, characteristics and affect in different way to our aura. They were formed throughout historical periods on earth, so that each type of crystal holds specific vibration as well as information. Crystals and gems from our planet, has unique crystalline structure (lattice or matrix) that has the ability to connect directly to our inner codes of Light. 

Ref. } for more information on the Ethereal codes of light in human body, read the article …..

     The crystalline matrix has living Soul – as every other natural element from the earth (like trees, plants, water, animals). That`s why crystals even not moving in the way we can perceive, are living souls, and in fact they are growing – similarly to mushrooms – (like amethyst, clear quartz, citrine). Their core connects to our core of ethereal light (within the Heart chakra), and core of Astral-mental light (in our Third eye). In such way crystals can provide us shift of consciousness, helping our process of expansion and spiritual growth and awareness of our true Self. That’s the main connection with our Higher Self.

Crystals atomic lattice has symmetrical pattern, and is arranged so that it`s related to the metaphysical properties of the gems.
