Crystals and Technology

How do crystals do what they do?

These healing rocks and crystals have their particular vibration and frequency, which arise from their molecular composition. From the way they move and interact, these vibrations and energies work in benefiting and uplifting our mood, mind, and health in a considerable manner, often in the way essential oils and aromatherapy work. Acting like a magnet, it can absorb the negative energies and welcome fresh vibes.

Stones are magical batteries which contain and concentrate the Earth's energies. Many are thought to also be affected by, or at least symbolic of, the planets and luminaries of our solar system. Others have long been associated with far distant stars. Through the ages, humans have relied on stones to ensure conception, ease childbirth, guard personal safety and health, and to protect

the dead. More recently, stones have been used in magic for internal or external change. Moonstones were worn to promote psychic awareness. The amethyst calmed tempers. Peridot was carried to attract wealth. Rose quartz drew love.

Stones, like herbs, colors, metals, numbers and sounds, aren't inert. They may sit quietly in the earth for millions of years, or rest on a shelf where we placed them last week, but they are active, powerful tools possessing energies which can and do affect our world.

When you place or hold a crystal over the body, it interacts with the body's chakras and promotes physical and mental wellness. They can also improve your concentration and creativity, promote physical, emotional and spiritual cleansing and healing.

Stones are gifts from the Earth which we can use to improve our lives, our relationships and ourselves. Many are readily available and inexpensive, while others can be gently collected from the ground itself.

Crystals can vibrate at the same pitch as humans, and can maximize the healing abilities we already have.

How does technology Affect us?

The health effects that technology exposes us to are numerous. From eye strain, exposure to electromagnetic radiations, blue light that can age and stress the skin and general pressures and stresses that come from working. Endless deadlines and replying to a high number of emails can cause even the most healthy and balanced individual to become stressed. This has provoked many individuals to turn to crystals, as an aid that can provide relief and positivity throughout the working day.

Technology has also caused humans to remain indoors more than our ancestors. With TVs, computers and game consoles, we now spend a great deal of time indoors surrounded by electronics. With the number of electronic devices that surround us it has led many to worry about the electromagnetic smog that clogs up our homes with positive ions. To combat this, many believe that using a Himalayan salt lamp can help to balance the air as it emits negative ions.

How Can crystals help? Which one works best?

Certain types of crystals are known to emit and absorb energies. This means they can be used next to computers and other devices to reduce radiation and any negativity that could arise from using the devices, like stress and anxiety.

Quartz is an extremely common mineral (the second-most-common after feldspar). The beauty of clear quartz crystals, together with the relative ease with which one can find them, is doubtless what makes them so popular. In addition, quartz crystals do have technological applications that are related, in a sense, to transforming energy. In technical terms, quartz is piezoelectric, meaning it can transform energy from one form to another.

Amethyst, which is from the Quartz family, and is the gemstone for protection, can clear one’s energy field of negative influences and attachments thus creating an energetic shield around the body that dispels the negativity in one’s environment. Amethyst can bring about a sense of surrounded protection like a bubble of light. Wearing Amethyst upholds one’s energy field in a state of balance and well-being.

Rose Quartz, also from the Quartz Family, is the stone of love, for stress and emotional healing. Holding the stone in your hand or having it close by provides an envelop of love around oneself and activates the Heart Chakra. It’s soothing vibrations, ability to heal wounds of the heart, reawakening its trust, releases tension and stress, dissolves anger and resentment are only some of the gifts of Rose Quartz gemstone.

Crystals can also be used as combinations to boost their properties and strength. Crystals can also be placed in certain configurations to create energy grids for different intentions.
