Conscious Creating with Crystals

I am a huge supporter of  Kacha Stones because I believe in the integrity of their products and the philosophy behind them. For fifteen years, Kacha Stones in Wales has only been selling ethically hand mined healing crystals. They also buy directly from ethical miners overseas to provide customers with beautiful crystals and stones for crystal healing.

Kacha Stone's Philosophy: Crystal healing is most effective when the healing stones are ethically mined, natural and untreated. From mining to shipping, preserving the natural energies of our crystals and gemstones is our first priority. This unique approach makes us a premier outlet for crystal healing enthusiasts worldwide. Destroying the planet with explosives cannot provide the necessary quality of crystal and gemstones for crystal healing.

An Interview with Stephen Wells, Owner of Kacha Stones

Shop: Kacha-Stones.com Location: Wales, UK

What first ignited your passion for the stones and crystals?

As a kid I would catch a bus out of the city to a village called Castleton to run around the hills looking for a fluorite unique to that area called "Blue John". Huge caves there had various minerals and I wondered "Why have all these colours and patterns been put underground where no one can see them?" It was and is a magical thing. A glimpse into another world.

What is your favorite stone and why?

Quartz. It may be so common it makes up 12% of the earths crust by volume, but it can be rarer than the most precious stones. The secret lies in the huge variety and partnerships it forms. If money were no object, you could have 10,000 perfect diamonds delivered within the day, but you could only ever buy 33 quartz crystals containing flakes of pure Welsh gold, because that is all that was ever found.

More significantly, quartz has a unique and easily accessible resonance with the human mind and is a perfect natural tuning fork. It is stamped with the ultimate hallmark of natural perfection, the golden proportion.

How do you feel when around your favorite stones and how do you communicate with them?

I feel at home around my favourite stones because I am amongst friends. Though far from expert, I communicate by calming my mind to the state in which it can receive impressions and then just listen.

What advice do you have for people just beginning to discover and explore the amazing metaphysical and magickal properties of stones and crystals?

Don't read lists of properties to try and understand crystals. Crystals cannot be isolated from an understanding of theistic philosophy, number, form, colour and geometry. Whichever of these interests you most, study it as deeply as possible and relate this knowledge to crystals.

A favourite quote to make me look brighter than I am:

"For the true knowledge of music is nothing other than this: to know the order of all separate things and how the Divine Reason has distributed them: for this ordering of all separate things into one, achieved by skillful reason, makes the sweetest and truest harmony with the Divine Song." ~ Hermes Trismegistus

If you could be reincarnated as a stone/crystal, what kind would it be and why?

In the Sanskrit Vedas there is a section describing the effect that "hearing" the flute of God has on stones. It describes how they melt in the ecstasy of love and reform in a different shape. I want to be one of those.

Sacred Geometry by Stephen Wells

Earlier this week someone emailed listing health ailments from consistent head pain to breast cancer. The range, seriousness and length of time of these issues indicated that "normal" crystal healing might be a long process and perhaps not exactly what she was looking for at this point. Neither should I kid myself I have the diagnostic skills to begin to understand the underlying physiology of these conditions, let alone from an email, other than to note their varied nature meant, in an holistic sense, it was probably something deeply seated manifesting externally in various ways.

As she had recently bought a beautiful manifestation crystal (a quartz crystal with crystals completely encased in it), I wondered why someone's very first crystal had been such an uncommon and relatively expensive one. The crystal she had already bought was exactly the right tool for the job, but getting her to understand that meant trying to communicate some of the most esoteric principles involved in "crystal healing" to someone completely new to crystals.

The step from positive thinking to conscious creation is not a big one and its benefits are easily understood even in the most basic terms of "positive thinking sometimes works, negative thinking never works". This is one principle that underpins the use of manifestation crystals in this most magical area of crystal use. Although any quartz crystal will help in this process, there is a wonderful and little known parallel between the "high magic" of old and use of this formation for manifestation. Understanding this parallel gives a clear insight into how this often ridiculed area of crystal use is rooted in the deep and realized wisdom of the ancient magi.

In a nutshell and with an admittedly tentative grasp of the subject, the magi would situate themselves at the centre of "a world". From cosmography to physics to martial arts, the centre is the point of most influence. So the magi placed themselves at the centre this world by creating it as a geometric shape drawn on the floor which was then taken possession of ritually to act influentially by various means. This was actually a very risky business, but that's not important to the parallel thankfully.

"Geometry is knowledge of the eternally existent." ~ Plato.

In geometric and metaphysical terms, manifestation crystals are quite literally worlds within worlds, perfect geometric form within a greater perfect geometric form. In the case of quartz, the geometry is always naturally and mathematically perfect. The inner crystals, themselves geometric "worlds", represent the planes in which thinking, feeling and willing, take seed to manifest in the world we see around us. This causal plane has been accepted by many great cultures and is elaborately explained in the very oldest, the Sanskrit texts of India. So instead of creating a world to step into like the magi, we focus our imagination, into the perfect geometry of the inner crystal. Quartz naturally structures, stores, amplifies and resonates those ideas and feelings to flow through the greater world of the outer crystal. Not only is quartz constitutionally perfectly suited to this, the crystal gives us a solid, perfect picture of the intangible causal plane to help us more easily concentrate.

"Human ingenuity may make various inventions - but it will never devise any inventions more beautiful, nor more simple, nor more to the purpose than Nature does, because in her inventions, nothing is wanting and nothing superfluous." ~ Leonardo da Vinci.

Concentrating our brightest, most positive, loving and spiritual ideals within an inner crystal as a daily meditation works wonderfully on many levels. Build this picture clearly, in detail and over time. Create a clear image of what you desire... and be careful what you wish for, because sooner or later, you will certainly get it.

About Stephen Wells: Stephen created Kacha Stones nearly 20 years ago to make ethically, hand mined crystals available to those who appreciate the difference this non-violent approach makes.

Crystals are more than just another natural resource to be ruthlessly exploited. They are one of the many living beings beyond the understanding of modern science, but widely appreciated by many ancient societies. The cultures of the Celts, Aztecs, Mayans, Native Americans and Vedic India are richly interwoven with the Mineral Kingdom Receive a Free Crystal!

Energy Healing - The Chakra System

In healing, the chakras of the patient are often of central importance to the healer as he or she works. Because the chakras are so important, and because in this Chios level you will begin to channel energy into them and sense the energy field above them, it is beneficial to gain some understanding of them. There are seven major chakras in the human body, and also numerous less-important minor ones. The chakras are energy centers, points of energy flow, and act as energy junctions in the body. They are energy processing centers, and the chakra system (comprised of the seven major chakras) is our energetic connection to the realm of pure consciousness and our spiritual essence. The energetic operations in them are what make every aspect of our bodily, emotional, mental and spiritual life possible. Each of the seven major chakras, or primary energy centers, has its own character and corresponds to a unique aspect of our being. They are patterns of energy, and are shaped something like funnels or whirlpools of energy. Their vortices lie inside the body, along the spinal cord (which corresponds to a central energy channel) and up into the head (see diagram.)

Because the chakra system is the central processing center for every aspect of our being, blockage or other energetic dysfunction in the chakras usually gives rise to disorders in the body, mind or spirit. A defect in the energy flow through any given chakra will result in a defect in the energy provided to certain portions of the physical body, as well as an impairment in the entire energy field’s ability to process energy—affecting all levels of the being. This is because the energy field is a holistic entity; every part of it affects every other part.

The chakras do not actually exist as “objects” in the physical body (they are actually energy patterns) but there are certain specific locations on the body, where you will place your hands, that correspond to the chakras, five along the spine, and two on the head. Each chakra also has a certain true color of the visible light spectrum associated with it—the intrinsic color of the chakra. Because the chakras are spiritual entities, it is impossible to convey a complete explanation of the nature of each chakra in words alone, but the table below will provide an introduction to the nature of each.

Each of the seven chakras has both a front (usually dominant) component, and a rear (usually less dominant) component, which are intimately related. The seventh and first chakras, though, are usually represented and thought of as having only the one dominant component, as it is far, far more significant than the weaker component in these two chakras. The seventh chakra extends vertically upwards above the head. The first chakra extends forwards from the base of the spine, and downwards, at roughly a 45 degree angle, although its exact position will vary from person to person. The other five chakras, spaced between the first and seventh, have at their appropriate locations a front component extending out the front of the body and a rear component extending out the rear of the body.

During energy channeling, the energy field healer receives the energy through his or her own chakra system, from all around, and from the Earth, too, which also acts as a conductor. The energy circulates in the entire universe, and conducts through the Earth, and also through the atmosphere, and into the healer’s body. When you “call in” the energy, you are receiving a greater quantity of it, so that you may pass it on, through your hands, into your patient. You receive the extra energy at first primarily through your first and seventh chakras, but later, with practice, through all your chakras equally.

Aside from the entry of energy into the body through the seven major chakras, there is also an upward flow of energy in the body, from the lower to higher energy centers. The lower chakras are simpler-functioning, but as one ascends upwards there is a greater degree of sophisticated and more spiritual functioning, intimately related to the life experience and state of being of the individual. The seven chakras, with the correspondences that exist between them and different aspects of our being and the interrelationships between them, are of great importance to the energy field healer. It is important to know, however, that an “intellectual” understanding of the chakra system is not a useful adjunct to healing work. The true energy field healer will learn to expand his or her consciousness and experience each of the chakras as a realm of being. As you begin to sense the chakras, as you practice the passing of hands and energy channeling, you may wish to begin to allow some sense of the unique nature of each chakra form in your awareness. You may also begin to gain some insight into the condition of each chakra in your patients, as well. In later Chios healing levels, you will learn more advanced methods for expanding your awareness in order to sense the condition of, and treat, the chakra system of your patients.
