Cleaning and recharging gems
Care of gemstones
For optimum operation of a gemstone must be properly cared for. Positive energy that the stone to its environment must be updated regularly releases (charging the stone) and negative energy that has included the stone itself from its environment must be discharged (cleaning of the stone). Once a gem is in your possession, it is wise to, before you use it or you're going to wear as thoroughly clean and recharge the stone.
Also, if the stone appears to be dull, or if there are cracks in, this is a sign that is to be cleaned and recharged the stone. How often do you clean the stone and then charge it depends on the stone and what you use it. Your own feeling here is very important. If you are sensitive to the energy of rock, let you guided by the stone itself. Do you feel that the effect of the stone or the stone is less much negative energy incorporated treatments than the stone at that time.
As a general guide you could say that if you are using a stone for a healing session you clean it before and after. If you wear your stone for (medicinal or therapeutic) effects, it is wise to clean it at least 1 time per week and recharge, depending on how heavily used the energy of the stone. If you use a stone as a guide or to meditate sufficient for it to be cleaned 1 time per week or 1 time per month and recharge.
Cleaning or discharged gems
Gemstones include negative energy from their environment. The extent to which this happens varies stone. Some stones such as citrine and kyanite, clean themselves and do not generally extra cleaning. Some other stones such as tourmaline and amber, many energy and need to be cleaned frequently. There are several methods to clean bricks. Which method is most appropriate will vary per stone again. Below is an overview of the most common cleaning methods. For all these methods, it is important to give the intention that you want to thoroughly clean the stone and dispose of all recorded negative charge.
-Cold running water
-Earth
-Hematite
-Sage or other cleansing herbs
-Incense (especially sandalwood)
-Amethyst
-Selenite
-Meru pyramid
The first method to clean a stone by him to hold a minimum of five minutes under cold running water. This is just under the tap but also in a stream or in the surf. It is important that the water is not hot that might be cracks and cracks formed in the rock. This is one of the fastest methods for cleaning but not suitable as a thorough cleaning. Some stones are adversely affected by water and can not be cleaned in water. Examples of these are calcite, Magnetite, selenite, lapis lazuli, malachite, turquoise and Angelite.
Also stop by a rock in the earth can he get rid of its negative charge. This is a very gentle method that can actually be used safely for all stones. Stop the stone for at least 24 hours in the ground. The longer you rock in the earth, how thorough cleaning. Do not forget where you buried the stone (for example, place a stick or something on the spot). And make sure any pets do not dig the stone.
Another safe and gentle cleaning by placing stones in a shell or bowl with hematite stones. Hematite, the negative charge from the stone. Let the stone be at least 24 hours on the hematite.
By sage (or use of other cleansing herbs) to burn and stone through the smoke to reach them with very strong intention to clean the stone, the stone can also be cleaned. Incense is the same. Sandalwood is a strong cleansing incenses and so ideal for this.
Finally, amethyst is an excellent stone to clean them other stones. By placing a stone twelve o'clock in amethystgeode or a amethystcluster this cleans itself. A geode is preferred because you very rarely need to be cleaned and the stone is completely surrounded by the energy of amethyst and thereby cleans deeper. A amethystcluster you however after each cleaning itself equally well cleaned.
Selenite is its mild cleansing properties and energy very well be used to clean them other stones and recharge.
The Meru pyramid is a tool for light energy at home, at work or in a holy place. It combines two ancient energetic resources: the pyramid and the Shri Yantra symbol. They have been used for centuries to increase vibrations and consciousness to the highest levels. If a pyramid and a Shri Yantra are combined to form a Meru Pyramid, creates a powerful generator of double effect. The Yantra emits positive vibrations upward and merge with the energy of the pyramid. Gemstones can be cleaned and recharged by placing them in the pyramid.
Charging gems
Gemstones have a positive effect by giving their energy to their surroundings or their carrier. This energy must be replenished regularly for optimum performance. By charging a stone can (the intensity of) the operation be enhanced or strengthened. The following are the most common methods of gems to recharge.
Moonlight
Sunlight
Rhinestone
Selenite
Meru pyramid
The stone at least one night in the moonlight (this may just behind glass), the natural energy of the stone replenished. This is a very gentle and safe method to load stone. Particularly suitable for this course is full moonlight!
Also with a stone sunlight can be charged. However, the light is much greater, and not all stones can stand here and can lose their color under the influence of (bright) sunlight. Try the light around noon, when the sun is at its strongest, to avoid. The light at sunrise or sunset is a lot softer. For these stones is that they can not be recharged in sunlight because they fade, including: Amethyst, Aquamarine, Aventurine, Beryl, Celestite (Celestien), Fluorite, Kunzite, Larimar, Malachite, Opal, Rose Quartz, Tourmaline, Turquoise .
Finally, a stone in a very gentle and safe manner can be recharged by placing it on a crystal cluster or in a shell or bowl with quartz pebbles. Let the stone be at least 24 hours. Make sure you clean the crystal itself (crystal may very well under running water).
Selenite is its mild cleansing properties and energy very well be used to clean them other stones and recharge.
The Meru pyramid is a tool for light energy at home, at work or in a holy place. It combines two ancient energetic resources: the pyramid and the Shri Yantra symbol. They have been used for centuries to increase vibrations and consciousness to the highest levels. If a pyramid and a Shri Yantra are combined to form a Meru Pyramid, creates a powerful generator of double effect.
