Working with Crystals: Black Tourmaline and Celestite

Hello to all of you lovely people!

We are going to go over two different types of crystals this week. Black Tourmaline, and because we have just come out of Mercury Retrograde this week, Celestite as well.

We will start with Black Tourmaline. The picture you see here is Black Tourmaline combined with a clear quartz crystal. Generally, if you are looking them up and finding them for sale in shops and online you will most likely see an all-black crystal.

Black Tourmaline protects from electromagnetic energy, negative energy, and psychic attacks. It helps to cleanse and purify. It can also transform dense energy into higher, lighter vibrations. This makes Black Tourmaline wonderful for cleansing your aura. It also helps to release negative thoughts, anger, and unworthiness while assisting in enhancing positive thinking and creativity. It can assist in grounding your spiritual energy to the Earth and help with clearing and balancing all of the chakras, but especially your base chakra.

To start working with Black Tourmaline remember to clear the energy from your crystal, ask for its assistance. Then, set an intention you would like to be assisted with. Remember this is a crystal that can be used in all areas of the body. If you like you can amplify its properties by using a clear quartz crystal with it as well.

This piece of Black Tourmaline is combined with crystal quartz and was found here in Maine!

This second crystal is called Celestite. Celestite is a blue crystal with high vibration, it is usually found in clusters or in a geode form.

This crystal is wonderful to use after coming out of Mercury Retrograde. You just spent a couple of weeks working directly with letting go of things that are not working for you, and now you are moving on to finding new paths, thoughts, experiences, etc… Celestite has several attributes that will be especially helpful during this time. Celestite helps to calm and sharpen the mind. It has a sweet and gentle energy that assists in inner peace and is also strong in assisting us to be open to new opportunities and experiences. It helps sharpen the mind while helping us stay calm and alleviates worry. It brings great assistance when planning new paths forward.

Celestite is also known to have strong metaphysical properties and will help you develop gifts that include connecting with your guardian angels, purifying and cleansing energy in a room, and even psychic prophecy or precognition.

Celeste works well with your throat chakra, and third eye and can make a direct connection from your third eye to your crown chakra. This can help facilitate higher spiritual awareness.

Also, with this crystal, we need to mention a couple of things about the care of your crystals. First, some crystals need to be kept out of direct sunlight or they fade, Celestite is one of these crystals. Second, there are many stones that you cannot get wet or they will start to dissolve, many of them end with “ite.” Celestite is one of these stones as well, so when clearing this crystal use a method that does not use water or salt water.

It can be found all over the world and is known to be called the universal crystal do to its many uses. It is able to enhance energy by absorbing, storing, amplifying, balancing, focusing and transmitting it.

This crystal is helpful to the body, mind, and spirit. For healing it is helpful with any condition for it helps with the immune system and helps bring your body back into balance. It helps to cleanse and purify as well. I can be used for any part of the body and chakra. For the mind it improves concentration, and balances it with the body and spirit. For the spirit, it helps raise your energy to its highest level, back into harmony and balance, before you knew dis-ease.

Clear quartz is also helpful in the amplification of properties with all other crystals when they are used together.

To start working with this crystal, choose one that calls to you. Crystals need to be cleared of any energy that they have come in contact with or previous use, you are going to be creating a ‘blank slate” so to speak to work on the energy you want to work with. You can do this by running this crystal under the tap, in a water fall, cleansing it in the ocean or other salt water, smudging or letting it sit under a full or new moon. Please choose what ever cleansing technique call to you.

After this is done, sit with the piece of Quartz in your hand or on any part of the body you wish to focus on, it should be rather easy, quartz with help you with your focus as well.

Make sure you give yourself enough time to work with your crystal, that your words, prayers and intentions are clear, you feel that you have been heard and have allowed the changes that you are seeking to start to take place for you. Trust yourself to know this has started.

Quartz is also helpful when you focus on an affirmation or mantra in regards of what you would like assistance with.

Questions to ponder:

What would you like to have healing assistance with?

Do you need something to come into focus? into balance?

Do you need assistance in spiritual work?

Love and Blessings,

Thea
