Since time immemorial, lithotherapy or treatment by stones has been effective all over the world. Indeed, each crystal has a particular vibration, same as the vibratory principle of the healing Tibetan bowls, of which I was telling you a few weeks ago. Each stone has a frequency matching one of our chakras. Let’s discover more about crystals healing…
Here are some rules to know about the stones before choosing and using them :
♦ Take a stone that resonates with you, don’t let it be a random choice. Your astral sign might help you however to link lithotherapy and astrology without knowing the characteristics of the planets and their vibrations is a complex science.
♦ Purify the stone before your first use. It has travelled a lot before it reached you, it can be negative energy charged.
♦ Wear it on you to receive its benefits or put it under your pillow or mattress.
♦ Give it an intention. You have to ask consciously for the stone to act in a specific situation in order to make the stone focus on it. Don’t forget, it’s only vibrations, and the intention also has a vibration.
