CLEANSING YOUR GEMSTONE

Gemstones easily attract all kinds of 'vibrations'; negative as well as positive. The stones are always 'open' to receiving impressions from everyone and everything around them

Your stone, which you have just selected, may well have traveled many thousands of miles before coming to you - and may well have acquired many negative energies and ' vibrations' on its journey to find you.

Ways to Cleanse your Gem

1) Hold your stone in either your left or right hand (according to personal preference) and say these words, "I will and command that this stone be self-cleansing". As you repeat these few words (whether mentally or orally) you should visualize the negative energies falling away from your stone and only the natural, and pure, energies remaining.

2) Water is a wonderful universal cleanser.

Hold your stone under cold flowing water from the tap (cold or luke-warm water only.Never use hot water!) and,again, visualize all the negative energies and 'vibrations' being washed away and only the natural, and pure, energies remaining. When drying your stone after cleansing in water never attempt to dry your stone with a towel or cloth. Always allow your stone to dry naturally - preferably from the rays of the sun!

The sun, of course, is also a very powerful energizer and should be used whenever possible.

If, however, there is little or no sun around, then you should allow your stone to dry as naturally as possible in the warmth within your home.

3) Immerse your stone in salt water for several hours. Dry as in (2) above.

4) Bury the stone under the earth in your garden. Our planet Earth consists of at least one third quartz and the very strong and powerful magnetic energy field in the actual earth will 'cleanse' your stone of all its negativity very effectively.

5) Place your stone on a large quartz crystal cluster for a few hours. The very strong crystalline energies present within the cluster will soon neutralize any negative energies to be found within your stone.
