Angelite - The Communication Stone

Angelite has to be one of my favorite stones, if for no other reason than the beautiful blue color is so very calming for me. It’s often used as a way to communicate with Angels or to connect with animal spirit guides. This stone is used for several different chakra areas, including the fifth throat, sixth or third eye, and also the seventh crown. It is associated with the element of wind.

While I have heard many use this stone to assist in astral travel, I have never used it for that purpose myself. I am told if you are using this stone for astral travel, it’s recommended to have a stone such as hematite handy for grounding. Often two people, each having the stone on their person, use it for telepathic communication.

From my research on this stone, I find that it is one that should never be cleansed with water, so I would advise using sage or whatever you use to smudge instead. My understanding is that if you have jewelry containing Angelite, you should never wear it while swimming or bathing.

Here are some of its other amazing properties and uses:

• Healing of anger
  
• Used to unlock secrets, brings out the truth
  
• Promotes inner peace and tranquility
  
• Alleviates suffering
  
• Helps to expand awareness
  
• Allows for self-expression
  
• Provides energetic support to bone density and growth
  
• Helps with arthritis and osteoporosis as it can assist in attaining mobility of the joints and range of motion
  
• Helps dissolve calcification in the joints
  
• Can help with eating disorders caused or brought on by emotions or stress
  
• Used for relief of throat inflammation
  
• Helps to balance the thyroid
  
• Angelite is associated with the wind element.
  

This is an excellent stone to use for dream work as it can help you to remain lucid and remember guidance received during the dreams. It is also known to help tune into memories of past lives.

Again as always, if you have any questions about this stone or if there are any others you would like me to research, please let me know. If there any properties for Angelite that I've missed, I hope you use a comment to add them.

Carnelian - Energy Booster

First, I would like to take a moment to address something about crystals. I’ve had several people mention they felt using crystals was in some way bad or had to do with magic. The crystals I use are all natural and come from the earth. Now, if you believe as I do that GOD created the world, than you have to believe since these came from that earth he created, they would have healing properties.

The Carnelian was once considered to be only owned by the noble class, with a high social status. There were often buried with the nobles to protect the traveler after death and guard against evil.

It is a variety of chalcedony, and come in shades of light to very dark red. It’s affiliated with Taurus, Cancer, Leo and Virgo signs of the Zodiac. It is often used on either the root or sacral chakra. The Carnelian is often given as jewelry for the 17th anniversary.

The Carnelian has a long list of properties, but is most associated with giving an energy boost. The other properties are as follows:

• Protects from bad vibrations
  
• Helps give a sense of humor
  
• Calms the temper
  
• Helps those with self doubt find their inner strength
  
• Boost and helps improve appetite
  
• Purifies the blood
  
• Relieves menstrual cramps
  
• Beneficial in the treatment of infertility
  
• Enhances passion and desire
  
• Helps remove fears
  
• Protects against envy and rage
  
• Used for help with kidney problems
  
• Helps fight against colds and pollen allergies
  

It is often used by artist, as it is also known to promote creativity. As you can see it is a stone used for many reasons, and has a vast number of healing properties.

The Carnelian can be easily found for purchase from many sites on the internet, but always be sure you are getting the natural stone, and not a simulated variety. I will soon be selling the stones and my hand made jewelry on my website http://www.readingsbymsyovnne.com/ and will let you know when my shop is open for business.

If you have any questions regarding the Carnelian or another stones, please contact me through my blog or on face book at http://facebook.com/msyvonnelp.

Amethyst - Stone of Psychic Power

I use crystals in many ways and am always offering that information to my clients for their use. Lately, I’m receiving more and more questions about the different crystals and their use. For this reason, I thought I would write a few articles here to pass on that information.

I’m starting with Amethyst because this is a crystal I personally use often. It’s often referred to as the stone of psychic power. Most people know that it’s the birthstone for February and it’s purple. This stone can actually come in many shades from very light lilac to a beautiful deep purple. It’s a variety of quartz.

Over the centuries, Amethyst has been believed to be a healing stone and used for a variety of things. It has been used to guard against drunkenness and thought to help overcome addiction.

It has many properties including:

• Calms emotions and reduces stress
  
• Gives holder more optimistic and uplifting perspective
  
• Powerful amulet for travelers
  
• Transmitter of healing power of the universe
  
• Increases psychic awareness
  
• Kept with divination tool to enhance their qualities
  
• Placed under the pillow, it helps with insomnia and induces prophetic dreams
  
• Used to induce harmony
  
• Helps promote mediation
  
• Helps clear the aura
  
• Boost hormones
  
• Aids with Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue and helps the immune system
  
• Used on the crown chakra

While it is the stone for February, its beautiful color makes it a favorite stone for jewelry. Its properties will not be affected if it’s placed in jewelry, just be sure that it’s a natural stone and not man made. It can be carried in a pocket, or my favorite place to carry it ladies, placed inside the cup of your bra. Placed under the pillow or inside your pillow slip, it will help with insomnia. If used in healing on, you can also just place it on the part of the body that needs to be healed.

These are just some of the uses for Amethyst, and if you have another use or know of more properties, please feel free to share that information with us. If you have any questions, please let me know and if I don’t have the information available, I’ll see what I can do to find out for you.
