WEBVTT 1 00:00:07.679 --> 00:00:11.480 Hello, and welcome to Psychic Teachers. I'm your host, Deb Bowen and 2 00:00:11.519 --> 00:00:15.560 I'm Samantha Fay, and this week that we are discussing a topic that, 3 00:00:15.640 --> 00:00:19.920 as you well know, is near and dear to our hearts. Crystals. 4 00:00:20.280 --> 00:00:23.760 Now, for some of you, this will be refresher information, and for 5 00:00:23.839 --> 00:00:27.879 some of you who are just beginning to walk this metaphysical path, this is 6 00:00:27.960 --> 00:00:32.439 brand new information. Probably more than any other topic. We get a ton 7 00:00:32.759 --> 00:00:36.679 of questions about crystals, and we thought that this week would be a really 8 00:00:36.679 --> 00:00:41.439 good time to just give you some basic information and to answer some of the 9 00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:46.399 questions that you are asking us about. Remember that we're speaking from our own 10 00:00:46.439 --> 00:00:50.799 experiences, from our own work with stones, and from experts like Melody, 11 00:00:51.159 --> 00:00:56.240 whose love is in the Earth is our primary reference source. Let's start with 12 00:00:56.320 --> 00:01:02.240 how crystals work. So, crystal's have pyro electric and pisio electric properties, 13 00:01:02.679 --> 00:01:07.719 and when pressure is applied to a pisioelectric crystal, an electric current is created. 14 00:01:07.359 --> 00:01:15.480 This piesioelectric effect means pressure creates an electric field around the crystal. Pyroelectric 15 00:01:15.519 --> 00:01:19.760 crystals generate a polarizing charge as a result of being heated or cooled. So 16 00:01:19.879 --> 00:01:26.280 each type of crystal has a crystal lattice structure. No matter how big or 17 00:01:26.319 --> 00:01:30.319 small the crystal, Each crystal has a growth access and will repeat the same 18 00:01:30.519 --> 00:01:36.400 lattice structure as it grows. Energy flows through this structure, causing the crystal 19 00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:40.200 to act like an antennae. Now, how do crystals work for you? 20 00:01:40.959 --> 00:01:45.120 While each crystal vibrates at its own rate, it has its own frequency. 21 00:01:45.519 --> 00:01:49.760 So when we bring a crystal into our own unique energy field, the crystal 22 00:01:49.760 --> 00:01:53.799 helps synchronize our vibration. We can't change the lattice structure of a crystal. 23 00:01:53.959 --> 00:01:59.840 We also cannot change the frequency vibration of a crystal. So crystals will work 24 00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:05.599 with us to help increase our frequency. They help us adapt our electric magnetic 25 00:02:05.640 --> 00:02:08.879 field to its vibration. So when you work with a high vibration stone, 26 00:02:08.919 --> 00:02:14.319 your electric magnetic field increases. When you work with a low vibrating stone, 27 00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:20.599 your electric magnetic field slows and calms down. Kind of sounds magical, doesn't 28 00:02:20.599 --> 00:02:25.560 it. Deb Well, anything that scientific sounds magical to me me too. 29 00:02:27.680 --> 00:02:31.080 But I do understand what you are saying, because you know crystals do what 30 00:02:31.120 --> 00:02:38.159 they do, they do what their intention is on the planet. So you 31 00:02:38.199 --> 00:02:42.919 can't ask a haematite to do something that is not in its repertoire, so 32 00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:46.840 you might need an amethyst instead. So it's important to know that crystals do 33 00:02:46.039 --> 00:02:50.960 what they do and there's nothing you can do about that. That's what they're 34 00:02:51.000 --> 00:02:54.039 meant to do. It's really important to know. And we did an episode 35 00:02:54.039 --> 00:02:58.280 on this, Goully I don't know how many years ago, entitled There's not 36 00:02:58.560 --> 00:03:02.039 a rock for that, And it's the idea that we ask a crystal to 37 00:03:02.080 --> 00:03:07.319 do what it's meant to do to work with us, but it doesn't necessarily 38 00:03:07.360 --> 00:03:13.159 do something for us. And there's a big philosophical difference between those two phrases, 39 00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:15.840 and we'll come back to that later. Yeah, and if you get 40 00:03:15.879 --> 00:03:21.319 crystal books like Melodi's Love Is in the Earth, it will tell you what 41 00:03:21.639 --> 00:03:23.960 that stone vibrates at. So if you're listening to this going, well, 42 00:03:23.960 --> 00:03:28.560 how do I know what's a high vibrating stone and what's a low vibrating stone? 43 00:03:28.680 --> 00:03:31.680 And when you do research on the crystal that you've selected, it'll tell 44 00:03:31.759 --> 00:03:37.479 you the vibration rate of that stone. And it's important to note that high 45 00:03:37.560 --> 00:03:40.879 and low isn't a value judgment. No, and I think people think that, 46 00:03:42.000 --> 00:03:45.800 oh, it vibrates low. That's not good. That's not true a 47 00:03:45.879 --> 00:03:50.319 stone if, for example, if you have ever stood in the center of 48 00:03:50.520 --> 00:03:57.199 stone Hinge with those gigantic megaliths, and you can it's like standing in the 49 00:03:57.199 --> 00:04:04.560 middle of a very slow pounding drum and the vibration is very low and deep 50 00:04:05.039 --> 00:04:09.479 and slow. And you tell me there's not power there, boy, is 51 00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:14.000 there. It's just a different kind of power than you might have from say 52 00:04:14.039 --> 00:04:16.639 a piece of quartz that vibrates at a much higher rate. They're just different 53 00:04:16.680 --> 00:04:24.199 in their intent, not better or worse. Well said, Okay, let's 54 00:04:24.199 --> 00:04:30.480 talk about choosing a crystal. Okay, because you know I've done this when 55 00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:34.680 I thought, okay, I need a stone to work with me for X 56 00:04:35.040 --> 00:04:40.680 intent. And so I go into my favorite metaphysical store and I stand in 57 00:04:40.720 --> 00:04:45.720 front of a wall or a bin full of all kinds of stones, and 58 00:04:45.759 --> 00:04:49.120 I say, Wow, which one is right? And I've probably gone in 59 00:04:49.160 --> 00:04:54.959 with an idea that I might need, for example, a stone in the 60 00:04:54.959 --> 00:04:58.839 green range. So I'm standing in front of bens and bens and bins of 61 00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:01.920 green stones. How do I know which one's right? And then so I 62 00:05:01.959 --> 00:05:06.879 say Okay, I'm going to try moss aagot for example. I think moss 63 00:05:06.879 --> 00:05:11.240 sagget's my rock. So that I've narrowed it down, I'm standing in front 64 00:05:11.240 --> 00:05:15.360 of a band of moss aggot stones, all these lovely tumble moss aggot stones. 65 00:05:15.839 --> 00:05:18.959 Well, how do I know within that bend which one is the exact 66 00:05:19.199 --> 00:05:24.079 rock I need? What do you think, Samanpa, Well, I think 67 00:05:24.120 --> 00:05:27.399 there's a lot of things you can do. I like to rub my hands 68 00:05:27.439 --> 00:05:30.519 together to kind of wake up my hand chakras and please them over that bin 69 00:05:30.680 --> 00:05:35.240 and see where my hand is drawn to. That's a good idea. I 70 00:05:35.240 --> 00:05:41.199 don't always do that, but I see the value of doing that. But 71 00:05:41.319 --> 00:05:45.839 I literally put my hand and kind of scoop up a bunch of them, 72 00:05:46.199 --> 00:05:50.959 and You're right, there's a it's almost a tingling yeah that my hand feels, 73 00:05:50.959 --> 00:05:54.680 and it says, yep, this one. I say, okay. 74 00:05:55.279 --> 00:06:00.879 And I have learned over the years to trust that yeah, And I've learned 75 00:06:00.879 --> 00:06:02.639 to trust what I'm wrong. Have you ever picked a stone from a bin 76 00:06:03.319 --> 00:06:06.519 and thought, oh, that's so pretty, and then it falls from your 77 00:06:06.560 --> 00:06:10.759 hand and you pick it back up, and maybe it drops again, and 78 00:06:11.199 --> 00:06:13.879 then I have to realize, Oh, nope, that's not my stone, 79 00:06:13.959 --> 00:06:17.959 even though it's super pretty. Oh yeah, super pretty does not always mean 80 00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:21.040 the best. I mean, I'll talk later about a stone. I'm sitting 81 00:06:21.040 --> 00:06:26.480 here looking at right now as we're recording this episode called valin tonight, and 82 00:06:26.519 --> 00:06:30.759 it's an ugly rock and it's just not pretty. I'm looking at that serpentine 83 00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:33.879 I bought with you in Myrtle Beach. Do you remember that? I do? 84 00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:38.839 It was covered, Guys, serpentine is a beautiful stone. But this 85 00:06:39.079 --> 00:06:43.480 was just not a pretty cut of that stone. And you know, I'm 86 00:06:43.480 --> 00:06:45.480 looking at it now. Oh, I still feel bad for it. It 87 00:06:45.519 --> 00:06:48.399 is, you are very pretty. It's just this, you know, oval 88 00:06:48.879 --> 00:06:54.279 lumpy thing, and it was covered in a quarter inch of dust, and 89 00:06:54.319 --> 00:06:57.319 you just knew no one had picked it up, and so Tip and I 90 00:06:57.360 --> 00:07:00.759 decided to adopt it, and I took it home. Here it is and 91 00:07:00.800 --> 00:07:02.879 still doing wonderful things with you, you know, and it has a prominent 92 00:07:02.920 --> 00:07:09.639 place in my crystal display. Right. Trust, trust your instincts, trust 93 00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:14.199 what the stone tells you. I can't tell you enough how much that's a 94 00:07:14.240 --> 00:07:16.839 part of It's like meeting a new friend. It's like meeting somebody and you 95 00:07:16.879 --> 00:07:19.439 think, oh, you know, I think I'd like to get to know 96 00:07:19.560 --> 00:07:24.439 this person better. I don't know a whole lot about them, but they 97 00:07:24.480 --> 00:07:29.360 are. They're vibrating at a rate that seems to be compatible with me in 98 00:07:29.439 --> 00:07:33.079 some way. And hasn't that usually worked out where you've become friends with that 99 00:07:33.120 --> 00:07:38.759 person because you've trusted at least the possibility of getting to know them better. 100 00:07:39.279 --> 00:07:42.720 Crystals are people too, That's all I know to say about that. You 101 00:07:42.759 --> 00:07:47.560 know so true. And sometimes the crystal chooses you, and that's when someone 102 00:07:47.600 --> 00:07:53.120 gives you a stone, or you find one randomly when not expecting it. 103 00:07:53.519 --> 00:07:56.879 And we'll talk more about crystal gifts in a minute, but that's always a 104 00:07:56.879 --> 00:08:01.360 lovely thing when someone decides to select a crystal and they'll say, I don't 105 00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:03.759 know why, but I just knew this was for you. That's a beautiful 106 00:08:03.800 --> 00:08:07.560 way. I've got a couple of those sitting in front of me. In 107 00:08:07.600 --> 00:08:09.439 fact, one of them is from you I want to talk about. So 108 00:08:09.800 --> 00:08:18.040 yes, absolutely, so trust that beginning process. But it is also, 109 00:08:18.199 --> 00:08:26.399 I think really helpful to have a working knowledge of stones and what they do 110 00:08:26.720 --> 00:08:31.519 and the range in which they work and The best way I know to do 111 00:08:31.600 --> 00:08:35.279 that is to tell you to basically go to Crystal School one oh one, 112 00:08:35.840 --> 00:08:39.080 and my go to textbook, as Samantha has mentioned, is Melodies Love Is 113 00:08:39.120 --> 00:08:43.039 in the Earth. And it's not an inexpensive book. It's an expensive book, 114 00:08:43.399 --> 00:08:50.799 but it really is the final encyclopedia word of stones. It really is 115 00:08:52.279 --> 00:08:54.879 one of the things you're going to find when you start doing that, when 116 00:08:54.919 --> 00:09:00.399 you start reading and you start memorizing, and you come up with a concept 117 00:09:00.440 --> 00:09:03.440 of something you would like to have a stone to work with you, to 118 00:09:03.480 --> 00:09:07.039 help you with, so say prosperity for example. So you're looking for a 119 00:09:07.080 --> 00:09:11.000 stone to help you with prosperity. If you go the index in Melody's book, 120 00:09:11.559 --> 00:09:16.879 you're going to find a long list of stones that work with prosperity. 121 00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:20.759 Now, lots of different aspects of working with prosperity, and what is it 122 00:09:20.840 --> 00:09:28.919 you're really asking for? Those subtle differences in that general concept of prosperity or 123 00:09:28.960 --> 00:09:33.200 what you want to look for. Are you looking for something to help you 124 00:09:33.840 --> 00:09:39.559 earn more money, for example? Are you looking for prosperity in a more 125 00:09:39.799 --> 00:09:45.279 esoteric way? What is it you really want to have happen that is such 126 00:09:45.320 --> 00:09:50.840 a good distinction, because the cinemar, for example, might help spur your 127 00:09:50.879 --> 00:09:58.120 passion and energy to create more money opportunities, whereas citrine or pyrite might give 128 00:09:58.120 --> 00:10:03.879 you the confidence encourage needed to pursue those abundant goals. So that's that's a 129 00:10:03.919 --> 00:10:07.840 really good point that you're making. Yeah, absolutely, And keep in mind 130 00:10:07.879 --> 00:10:13.519 that no stone that I know of only does one thing. They have a 131 00:10:13.559 --> 00:10:20.360 plethora and a range of tasks that they accomplish, and so you might want 132 00:10:20.399 --> 00:10:24.720 to look at the whole constellation of what a stone does. So be really 133 00:10:24.840 --> 00:10:28.639 clear about that, and I'll give you any example of that. As we 134 00:10:28.759 --> 00:10:33.759 talk later about looking for stones that helped me get my work published. Let's 135 00:10:33.759 --> 00:10:37.720 say you find exactly the right stone, you pay for it, and you 136 00:10:37.840 --> 00:10:41.519 bring it home. Now, well, first of all, remember that your 137 00:10:41.559 --> 00:10:45.200 stone is millions, maybe billions of years old and spent most of that time 138 00:10:45.320 --> 00:10:48.159 deep in the earth. Then it was mined and shipped and handled by many, 139 00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:52.759 many people before it reached you. So your first task is to cleanse 140 00:10:52.840 --> 00:10:56.480 the stone. Let's be sure we're real clear on this, because this is 141 00:10:56.519 --> 00:11:01.679 one of the questions we get asked the most. What is the difference between 142 00:11:01.759 --> 00:11:07.080 cleaning and clearing a stone, and they're two different tasks. To clean a 143 00:11:07.200 --> 00:11:13.360 stone, on one hand, is literal physical clean the rock. If it's 144 00:11:13.399 --> 00:11:16.279 not one of the heights, that's very fragile, Wash it off in some 145 00:11:16.519 --> 00:11:22.120 water. Clean literally clean it off. Like the rock Samantha was just talking 146 00:11:22.120 --> 00:11:24.840 about where it was covered in dust. Well, the first thing she did 147 00:11:24.879 --> 00:11:30.240 when she got it home was she washed it right, see how beautiful it 148 00:11:30.399 --> 00:11:35.399 was. So that's cleaning. There are other ways to clean a stone if 149 00:11:35.440 --> 00:11:39.159 it's one of the heights, for example, angely selenite. So clean them 150 00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:43.480 by putting them in a bowl of rice and letting the rice clean them. 151 00:11:43.519 --> 00:11:48.519 And I mean dry rice here, y'all, not cooked rice. Run them 152 00:11:48.799 --> 00:11:54.639 through smoke from whatever is a local or a regional herb for you that acts 153 00:11:54.679 --> 00:12:01.120 as a cleansing mechanism cedar pine, sage, polo santo. That's You can 154 00:12:01.159 --> 00:12:05.039 put them in a bowl of feathers. You can bury them in the earth 155 00:12:05.279 --> 00:12:09.279 or a potted plant for about twenty four hours. If you do bury them, 156 00:12:09.440 --> 00:12:15.600 just make sure to mark the location right. You can also clean them 157 00:12:15.639 --> 00:12:18.320 in sunlight. There are some exceptions a withthysts, for example, will fade 158 00:12:18.399 --> 00:12:22.679 if placed in direct sunlight. People always come in when we post photos of 159 00:12:22.759 --> 00:12:28.080 our rose court or you and I both have giant rose corts kind of little 160 00:12:28.120 --> 00:12:31.720 boulders outside our front doors, and people always say, don't leave those out, 161 00:12:31.759 --> 00:12:35.879 they'll fade. My giant rose cords has been out on my front step 162 00:12:35.039 --> 00:12:41.120 for fifteen years and has never faded. Lockwood, no mine either, And 163 00:12:41.240 --> 00:12:43.000 you know, weren't you with me when I bought that many times? Yes? 164 00:12:43.240 --> 00:12:46.879 I was, I thought so. And it's been right by the front 165 00:12:46.919 --> 00:12:50.320 door. It's sat through hurricanes. I don't move that rock during a hurricane. 166 00:12:50.759 --> 00:12:54.120 And it's so beautifully pink. But supposedly the sun does fade most of 167 00:12:54.200 --> 00:12:58.080 them. So yeah, who are we to challenge that? Not? I 168 00:12:58.320 --> 00:13:01.879 you want to fit clean the stone? Oh wait, there's there's more. 169 00:13:01.960 --> 00:13:05.879 You can also use dound and vibration, so you can ring a bell, 170 00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:13.000 a drum, you can chant over your stones, clap, breaking up the 171 00:13:13.120 --> 00:13:18.120 vibrations, creating new beautiful vibrations will also help cleanse them. Yeah, I 172 00:13:18.240 --> 00:13:22.559 mean think about you know if you if you it a been of tumbled stones. 173 00:13:22.000 --> 00:13:24.960 Here's this one. I'm back to my mowsagget again. Here you are 174 00:13:26.000 --> 00:13:28.120 back to this one little rock, and who knows what that rock has been 175 00:13:28.240 --> 00:13:33.080 through? And the sometimes say Samantha suggests billions of years before it gets to 176 00:13:33.279 --> 00:13:37.639 you. You really do want to start with a clean slate in terms of 177 00:13:37.720 --> 00:13:41.399 your relationship with this rock. So you want to clean it. Then, 178 00:13:43.080 --> 00:13:48.039 when we speak of charging a stone, we speak of asking the stone if 179 00:13:48.159 --> 00:13:54.759 it will work with us. Let me say that sentence once again, ask 180 00:13:54.240 --> 00:13:58.759 the stone if it will work with you? Well, there was a time 181 00:13:58.879 --> 00:14:03.440 where the whish many years ago was to program a stone, and I never 182 00:14:03.600 --> 00:14:09.120 ye know people here, she goes, I'm gonna go there and let me 183 00:14:09.240 --> 00:14:11.399 let me get your soapbox out. Step on, girl, I agree, 184 00:14:11.440 --> 00:14:16.039 go ahead, I'm gonna stand right on this soapbox because who am I to 185 00:14:16.240 --> 00:14:20.159 demand that a stone do something? Little old me? Really? Perhaps I 186 00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:24.080 should ask? Isn't that more polite? Isn't that a better way to build 187 00:14:24.120 --> 00:14:28.559 a relationship is to ask it if it will do what it says it can 188 00:14:28.639 --> 00:14:33.159 do. Will it do it with me? Will it help me? And 189 00:14:33.279 --> 00:14:39.600 I've had stones who said nope. I'm here in your house right now because 190 00:14:39.600 --> 00:14:41.759 there's something else you need to be doing with me. And most often, 191 00:14:43.279 --> 00:14:46.080 and then when that happens, I know, oops, this is this rock 192 00:14:46.159 --> 00:14:48.440 needs to be given away. I am just the conduit to pass this rock 193 00:14:48.480 --> 00:14:54.000 on to someone else, and I do, and the situation presents itself and 194 00:14:54.080 --> 00:14:56.919 I do pass it on. But in the many, many cases, bless 195 00:14:56.960 --> 00:15:01.039 them that I have rocks who have a gre to work with me. That's 196 00:15:01.240 --> 00:15:05.399 when there's a second step. And some of the things that Samantha has just 197 00:15:05.440 --> 00:15:09.840 suggested that you do that can clean your stones, can also charge them. 198 00:15:11.519 --> 00:15:15.039 There are times, and I don't know how I know this, Samantha, 199 00:15:15.799 --> 00:15:20.320 but there are times when everything else on my to do list tests to go 200 00:15:20.480 --> 00:15:24.960 away, because right this minute, every rock in my house needs to be 201 00:15:26.080 --> 00:15:31.600 cleaned and recharged. And I take up everybody and move them around and clean 202 00:15:31.679 --> 00:15:35.159 them, wash them in water or whatever, and charge them and ask them 203 00:15:35.200 --> 00:15:41.120 to let's reinforce our relationship. It's like having friends, and if you don't 204 00:15:41.120 --> 00:15:43.639 see them for a long time, what happens to that relationship sometimes, so 205 00:15:43.759 --> 00:15:50.120 you're building relationship when you're charging your crystals and asking them to do what they 206 00:15:50.240 --> 00:15:54.840 do for with you. Thank you for seeing all of that. And sometimes 207 00:15:54.879 --> 00:15:58.720 I still will see if I'm reading someone's blog or an article on crystals. 208 00:15:58.720 --> 00:16:03.440 All see that word program, and I always think of you and how respectfully 209 00:16:03.480 --> 00:16:06.200 you treat the crystals, and I think, no, no, no, 210 00:16:06.639 --> 00:16:10.159 we need to change up that word because I agree one hundred percent. And 211 00:16:10.279 --> 00:16:12.600 you made another good point where you said I don't know how I know that 212 00:16:12.720 --> 00:16:18.480 they need to be charged or cleansed. Everything with crystals is so subtle, 213 00:16:18.600 --> 00:16:22.679 like that feeling when you ask a stone to work with you and you get 214 00:16:22.720 --> 00:16:26.840 a know. I want to make it clear that, at least for me, 215 00:16:26.600 --> 00:16:30.080 I don't hear a little voice that says no, no, no, 216 00:16:30.120 --> 00:16:33.879 we have different work to do. You and I, Samantha, you know 217 00:16:33.919 --> 00:16:37.240 it's nothing like that. It's just it's so subtle. It's I don't even 218 00:16:37.279 --> 00:16:41.320 know how to put words to it, but you just know once you take 219 00:16:41.440 --> 00:16:48.000 time to really sit and connect with the energy of your stone, whether it's 220 00:16:48.200 --> 00:16:55.000 just another extension of your subconscious or the collective unconscious, or this stone has 221 00:16:55.360 --> 00:16:59.440 actually breathing consciousness that you're connecting with, we don't know, but you will 222 00:16:59.519 --> 00:17:03.359 feel the subtle energy of a yes or a no, or an insight into 223 00:17:03.440 --> 00:17:07.400 the type of work you're supposed to do with that with that rock. One 224 00:17:07.440 --> 00:17:15.000 of the things that's tradition is that you put stones in the moonlight to be 225 00:17:15.200 --> 00:17:18.720 charged. That moonlight helps charge your stones. And that's true, and it's 226 00:17:18.799 --> 00:17:23.160 a safe way to do that because unlike perhaps sunlight as we were talking about 227 00:17:23.200 --> 00:17:27.720 earlier, or water or anything else, moonlight is a very safe thing to 228 00:17:27.839 --> 00:17:33.319 do. But it's you can charge your stones anytime, you really can. 229 00:17:33.519 --> 00:17:38.279 But moonlight is traditionally kind of that time you gather everybody and you put them 230 00:17:40.039 --> 00:17:44.920 on a table in a window seal where the moonlight comes in through. Now, 231 00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:45.880 some people, of course think, oh, but do I need to 232 00:17:45.880 --> 00:17:51.839 put them outside O the light comes through the window, and oh what if 233 00:17:51.880 --> 00:17:55.960 it's raining. Well, the moon's still up there. It's just between their 234 00:17:56.000 --> 00:17:59.319 clouds and rain between you and it. But the moonlight is still doing what 235 00:17:59.440 --> 00:18:03.680 it does. It's a good time to be conscious of that and to perhaps 236 00:18:03.799 --> 00:18:11.400 create some kind of a consistent practice of reconnecting with your stones. I think 237 00:18:11.480 --> 00:18:17.839 that's really the ultimate reason for doing that every twenty eight day cycle of working 238 00:18:17.920 --> 00:18:21.559 with your rocks that way. Yeah, and we can talk about different things 239 00:18:21.599 --> 00:18:23.440 you can do with the cycles of the moon, but let's take a quick 240 00:18:23.559 --> 00:18:27.039 break and we'll be right back. Deb Do you want to tell us what 241 00:18:27.119 --> 00:18:30.920 you have coming up? Oh? I certainly will. I'm happy to do 242 00:18:30.079 --> 00:18:36.359 that, folks. I have this self paced to Row course and it starts 243 00:18:36.400 --> 00:18:40.720 whenever you're ready to start it, so it's never too late to join this 244 00:18:40.920 --> 00:18:44.480 course. The course is called the Fool's Journey, and it helps you to 245 00:18:44.680 --> 00:18:51.680 understand your own life journey through the symbols, myths, cultures and the beliefs 246 00:18:51.759 --> 00:18:56.440 that are present on the traditional to row cards. So it's a thirty eight 247 00:18:56.480 --> 00:19:00.759 week course and each week you get an in depth lesson about the cards as 248 00:19:00.839 --> 00:19:06.279 we make our way from the Fool all the way through the minor Arcana Keys. 249 00:19:06.559 --> 00:19:10.880 There's so much more information about how the course works and details of what 250 00:19:11.039 --> 00:19:15.480 you will learn on my website that's Stebboen dot com. I want to let 251 00:19:15.559 --> 00:19:19.160 everyone know that on Wednesday, June fifth, I'm going to be teaching my 252 00:19:19.519 --> 00:19:26.319 Manifesting webinar from seven to eight thirty pm Eastern. It's taught live over zoom. 253 00:19:26.880 --> 00:19:29.920 But if you can't be there, it's fine because it will be recorded 254 00:19:30.079 --> 00:19:33.759 and emailed into your inbox the next day. You also get an MP three 255 00:19:34.000 --> 00:19:41.319 instant downloadable meditation which is designed to help train your subconscious to manifest for you 256 00:19:41.599 --> 00:19:45.880 and along with you. And you also get my sixty page ebook on how 257 00:19:45.960 --> 00:19:51.359 to manifest with lots of techniques that I've honed over the years of doing this, 258 00:19:51.559 --> 00:19:55.079 so I hope you'll join me. You can find out about that by 259 00:19:55.160 --> 00:20:02.680 going to Samantha Fay dot com and clicking the upcoming events tab. Welcome back. 260 00:20:03.039 --> 00:20:07.000 Okay, so we're talking all about crystals, and we were talking before 261 00:20:07.039 --> 00:20:11.599 the break about charging crystals with the moon. You can also use the cycles 262 00:20:11.640 --> 00:20:15.920 of the moon to charge stones for specific purposes. So, for example, 263 00:20:15.240 --> 00:20:19.920 in a waxing moon, stones will help you with anything new in your life, 264 00:20:21.039 --> 00:20:25.720 a new job, relationships, or projects, such as rose quartz, 265 00:20:25.839 --> 00:20:30.720 green adventurin, citrin, turquoise, or garnet. Under the full moon, 266 00:20:30.920 --> 00:20:34.200 stones will help you with gratitude and healing. And you want to choose stones 267 00:20:34.240 --> 00:20:40.680 that are associated with moon energy, like selenite, moonstone, watermelon, tornaline, 268 00:20:40.759 --> 00:20:45.559 unkite. Under a waning moon, you can use stones to help you 269 00:20:45.680 --> 00:20:51.519 release and purge negativity, change your thinking, release a bad habit, such 270 00:20:51.559 --> 00:20:56.920 as hematite, malachite, rhodochrosite, labradorite, or celestite. And finally, 271 00:20:57.039 --> 00:21:02.319 under the new moon, you can use crystals to help you set new intentions 272 00:21:02.839 --> 00:21:07.720 like apophylite, moldavite, or smith senite. And so it can be really 273 00:21:07.839 --> 00:21:11.960 fun to start working with the phases of the moon also with the crystals that 274 00:21:12.039 --> 00:21:18.200 you're building relationships with. All of those are absolutely true, and I think 275 00:21:18.279 --> 00:21:23.359 what I really want to emphasize with folks about this connection with working with stones 276 00:21:23.400 --> 00:21:27.720 with certain phases of the moons and what you want to have happened during those 277 00:21:27.880 --> 00:21:37.960 times. It's the idea that when you connect the energies of the moon or 278 00:21:38.039 --> 00:21:45.359 the sun, or stones or a zillion other things that you're working with in 279 00:21:45.440 --> 00:21:53.119 the metaphysical world, you really create this container of energy and intent and connection 280 00:21:53.359 --> 00:22:00.240 to a deeper spiritual way of being in the world. Yeah, I want 281 00:22:00.279 --> 00:22:04.000 to talk to about what you do with your crystals. So you got them 282 00:22:04.039 --> 00:22:07.839 home, you've cleansed them, you've charged them, you've asked them to work 283 00:22:07.880 --> 00:22:11.559 with you. I think it's important if you're not actively working with a crystal, 284 00:22:12.079 --> 00:22:15.519 to remember that they should be stored in a sacred manner. So if 285 00:22:15.559 --> 00:22:18.880 you keep your stones in a pouch, be sure to include a small piece 286 00:22:19.000 --> 00:22:23.839 of carnelian because carnelian will help clean and charge the other stones around it. 287 00:22:25.640 --> 00:22:30.200 Larger stones should be placed around your home with the intent of purpose for which 288 00:22:30.279 --> 00:22:33.240 they are used. For example, you can place a quartz cluster in your 289 00:22:33.319 --> 00:22:38.880 family room for group family harmony. Unikite or fluorite placed by computers and TVs 290 00:22:40.319 --> 00:22:45.000 helps protect your energy from absorbing the emf emissions from your electronics. A citrine 291 00:22:45.039 --> 00:22:49.880 and amethyst cluster placed together by your bedside keeps a couple seeing eye to eye. 292 00:22:51.640 --> 00:22:55.759 Garn It on an office desk keeps your passion for work alive and well. 293 00:22:56.440 --> 00:23:00.960 So there's a lot of different places that you can put your crystals, 294 00:23:00.519 --> 00:23:04.839 and for example, in my e course on working with crystals, I have 295 00:23:04.960 --> 00:23:10.440 a whole section on where to put your crystals in terms of feng Shuei, 296 00:23:10.599 --> 00:23:17.000 because you can also use a bagua map and place crystals in certain bagua areas 297 00:23:17.039 --> 00:23:19.359 of your home. So for example, if you're working on fertility goals, 298 00:23:19.880 --> 00:23:25.880 then you would want to put fertility crystals with your affirmation in the creative and 299 00:23:26.319 --> 00:23:32.680 children section of your bagua home or and in the relationship corner of your home. 300 00:23:33.160 --> 00:23:36.920 If you're working on getting a new job, you would want to put 301 00:23:37.039 --> 00:23:41.799 certain crystals in the job section of your home, but also in the helpful 302 00:23:41.839 --> 00:23:45.440 people corner of your home. So there's some really cool things you can incorporate 303 00:23:45.599 --> 00:23:51.440 when you think about where to place the crystals in your house. Absolutely true. 304 00:23:51.960 --> 00:23:56.279 I have a quartz cluster on the coffee table in my living room for 305 00:23:56.440 --> 00:24:02.400 exactly that reason. I have a piece of fluorite out by my porch store 306 00:24:02.759 --> 00:24:06.880 because it protects your house from bad weather. I mean, there are sorts 307 00:24:06.880 --> 00:24:10.160 of reasons and places of why you put what you put where you put it. 308 00:24:10.599 --> 00:24:15.160 Keep in mind that crystals can receive, hold, direct, project, 309 00:24:15.720 --> 00:24:19.000 and reflect light. So if a crystal has been proven to hold and emanate 310 00:24:19.119 --> 00:24:25.200 light and has been witnessed to help us align our energy, it's reasonable to 311 00:24:25.279 --> 00:24:29.039 assume they can help us to also take in more light. So when you 312 00:24:29.160 --> 00:24:32.799 ask a crystal to work with you, in addition to keeping in mind the 313 00:24:32.880 --> 00:24:37.079 properties of that crystal, it's also a good idea to remember that whatever you 314 00:24:37.319 --> 00:24:41.119 ask it to help you with will be magnified and projected out into the world. 315 00:24:41.519 --> 00:24:45.240 So, for example, we know pray Nite is great for self love 316 00:24:45.279 --> 00:24:48.480 and healing. If your goal is to set boundaries and focus on self care, 317 00:24:48.960 --> 00:24:52.359 you can ask your prey Nite to help you accomplish this and it will 318 00:24:52.440 --> 00:24:59.480 work within your energy field while also projecting this intention out into the collective. 319 00:24:59.640 --> 00:25:03.200 Uncon So, what does what do all those words mean? If you really 320 00:25:03.240 --> 00:25:08.079 are setting an intention to work on learning to love yourself and to heal maybe 321 00:25:08.200 --> 00:25:11.720 a broken heart or a grieving heart, and you're asking your prey Night to 322 00:25:11.799 --> 00:25:17.440 help you with this, it's going to set that intention magnified out into the 323 00:25:17.480 --> 00:25:21.599 world, which means it's going to help draw people to you, books to 324 00:25:21.680 --> 00:25:25.759 you, classes, resources that are going to help you work on that goal. 325 00:25:26.599 --> 00:25:30.119 How does that work? I have no clue. I just have seen 326 00:25:30.200 --> 00:25:33.960 it work in my own life. I've seen it work in Deb's life and 327 00:25:33.039 --> 00:25:37.519 Joel's life and all the people in my life who work very very closely with 328 00:25:37.680 --> 00:25:41.359 crystals. It's subtle. It's not, you know, turning on a light 329 00:25:41.440 --> 00:25:45.119 switch in a dark room. It doesn't happen overnight, but it does work, 330 00:25:45.799 --> 00:25:49.759 and date it does. The times in my life that stones have have 331 00:25:51.039 --> 00:25:56.119 worked and done their job and done what I have asked them to do our 332 00:25:56.240 --> 00:26:00.759 legion. Now, I used to belong to a paranormal ghost investment litigation team, 333 00:26:00.079 --> 00:26:07.400 and I never went on an investigation without a beautiful stone that Joel gave 334 00:26:07.480 --> 00:26:12.400 me. It's clear courts shot through with shards of black turmaline, and that's 335 00:26:12.440 --> 00:26:19.319 a stone of balance. So the clear courts acted as an amplifier to allow 336 00:26:19.400 --> 00:26:23.359 me to receive information that I was getting as I was doing the investigation, 337 00:26:23.839 --> 00:26:29.880 and the black urmaline protected me in case somebody was a pleasant and I wore 338 00:26:29.920 --> 00:26:33.839 it in my left pocket always. I always had on pants that had a 339 00:26:33.960 --> 00:26:37.839 left pocket because that's the receiving side of your body, and that always worked, 340 00:26:38.599 --> 00:26:42.839 always worked. You know, another one Melody recommends for that in addition 341 00:26:42.920 --> 00:26:47.559 to the one you just described as chloree quartz, and she says to keep 342 00:26:47.640 --> 00:26:52.039 one on each side of your front door if you want to keep negativity and 343 00:26:52.759 --> 00:26:56.920 ghosty stuff at bay. Now, another thing that deb and I often talk 344 00:26:56.960 --> 00:27:00.559 about, and the question we get all the time is how do I know 345 00:27:00.680 --> 00:27:03.799 what all of these stones do? And so something dev and I will say 346 00:27:03.920 --> 00:27:07.000 is, if you know the chakras, you know the crystals pretty much. 347 00:27:07.680 --> 00:27:12.279 So for example, we know the root chakra. Its color is red and 348 00:27:12.519 --> 00:27:18.880 it deals with finances, grounding, passion, protection, physical security, abundance, 349 00:27:18.960 --> 00:27:23.799 sense of self, connection to family, and so red stones like ruby, 350 00:27:25.359 --> 00:27:29.839 hematite, onyx, garnet and any other black or red stones are going 351 00:27:29.920 --> 00:27:33.400 to help you with those issues. The sacred chakra is connected to the color 352 00:27:33.559 --> 00:27:40.640 orange and it governs creativity, fertility, sexual issues, body image, creativity, 353 00:27:40.880 --> 00:27:45.440 joy, body issues. So any orange stone like Carnelian satrine, orange 354 00:27:45.519 --> 00:27:49.799 topaz, orange jasper is going to help you with that. Do you see 355 00:27:49.799 --> 00:27:55.880 what we mean? You can connect the chakra to the color to the crystal. 356 00:27:56.599 --> 00:28:03.839 You can, and I think that's and helpful way to learn the overall 357 00:28:04.319 --> 00:28:11.480 arching intent of a stone. They're nuances and specifics with each stone, of 358 00:28:11.559 --> 00:28:14.680 course, but generally speaking, if you think, ooh, you know, 359 00:28:15.039 --> 00:28:21.079 I need some help with creativity and working with any kind of issues with joy 360 00:28:21.440 --> 00:28:23.680 and body issues and whatnot, and you know you need to go to the 361 00:28:25.240 --> 00:28:30.640 rock store and look at orange rocks. Do you know what my new favorite 362 00:28:30.680 --> 00:28:36.599 creativity stone is what I wrote my whole book that's coming out in October. 363 00:28:36.759 --> 00:28:41.039 Wearing an orange kyanite necklace. Well, good for you and my book that 364 00:28:41.160 --> 00:28:48.359 I'm working on right now is being helped by an orangish and brownish yellow stone 365 00:28:48.880 --> 00:28:53.480 called calligraphy stone. Oh that's a good one too, That's a beautiful, 366 00:28:53.640 --> 00:28:59.519 beautiful stone. Had you ever heard of orange kyanite? No, yeah, 367 00:29:00.160 --> 00:29:04.240 I'd heard of blue kay and I've heard of black guyanite. And when we 368 00:29:04.359 --> 00:29:11.160 were helping Ryan put together the research for his Crystal Eyes app we came across 369 00:29:11.240 --> 00:29:14.759 orange cainite and it was I think that was given to me to research, 370 00:29:14.880 --> 00:29:18.599 and I was like, Ooh, I need this because it's all about creativity, 371 00:29:18.759 --> 00:29:22.640 but it's really about getting into the flow of the ideas that are coming 372 00:29:22.720 --> 00:29:26.000 to you and just kind of like a surfer, like riding the wave. 373 00:29:26.559 --> 00:29:30.240 And I thought, ooh, I need that. So I found a necklace 374 00:29:30.400 --> 00:29:36.799 that's orange kinite with clear quartz on top. Ooh. Yeah, it's been 375 00:29:36.880 --> 00:29:41.279 really really helpful. But you're right about the nuances. Take, for example, 376 00:29:41.400 --> 00:29:45.359 the heart chakra, which is connected to the color green. Now, 377 00:29:45.400 --> 00:29:48.480 the higher heart chakra is connected to the color pink, but let's focus on 378 00:29:48.799 --> 00:29:52.880 the main heart chakra, which is green, and that's where we focus on 379 00:29:52.960 --> 00:29:57.519 healing, love, growth, abundance, tolerance, forgiveness, and so you 380 00:29:57.640 --> 00:30:02.279 can turn to any green stone, green aventurine, moss agate, emerald, 381 00:30:02.799 --> 00:30:07.759 watermelon, tourmaline. But in those choices are so many nuances. So, 382 00:30:07.920 --> 00:30:11.799 for example, moss Agate is such a beauty, why do we keep mentioning 383 00:30:11.839 --> 00:30:15.480 that in this episode? Dem, I don't know. Maybe we both need 384 00:30:15.519 --> 00:30:18.599 to get a new piece of moss Aggetters. I know, it looks like 385 00:30:18.720 --> 00:30:22.319 you could you collected a piece of moss agate and put it like in a 386 00:30:22.359 --> 00:30:25.640 glass stone. It's just beautiful. It looks like the growing earth in a 387 00:30:25.720 --> 00:30:29.319 stone, and so that's going to help you with growth. So if you 388 00:30:29.400 --> 00:30:33.559 want to grow love, or if you want to grow in forgiveness, or 389 00:30:33.720 --> 00:30:38.079 you want to grow intolerance, you would look to moss agate. Green aventurine, 390 00:30:38.119 --> 00:30:41.319 on the other hand, is more focused on luck. You know, 391 00:30:41.519 --> 00:30:45.279 there's an old adage you should never buy a lottery ticket without a green aventurine 392 00:30:45.359 --> 00:30:48.839 in your pocket. And so if you want more luck and love, and 393 00:30:49.000 --> 00:30:53.319 that kind of green aventurine has like a lighter, happier it's kind of got 394 00:30:53.400 --> 00:30:57.279 that Carnelian cheerleader vibe to it. So you would want to work with green 395 00:30:57.319 --> 00:31:03.119 aventurine. But let's say you're in not a really great space with your heart 396 00:31:03.200 --> 00:31:07.319 chakra. Maybe you're grieving, maybe you're angry, maybe you're pissed off at 397 00:31:07.359 --> 00:31:11.119 an X or someone who really hurt your heart, and you're like, huh 398 00:31:11.200 --> 00:31:12.839 huh, I'm not feeling lucky, I'm not feeling like I want to grow 399 00:31:12.920 --> 00:31:18.319 anything. Well, then you want to go to malakite, because that is 400 00:31:18.440 --> 00:31:22.839 your tough love drill, sergeant stone. When you've gotten through that, you 401 00:31:22.920 --> 00:31:26.119 want to go to rhodonite, which is a beautiful pink and black stone that 402 00:31:26.359 --> 00:31:33.119 really helps you shed layers of old stuff. So can you see how within 403 00:31:33.279 --> 00:31:37.279 the heart chakra stones, as dev was saying, there's many, many nuances, 404 00:31:37.759 --> 00:31:41.640 but at least identifying the colors and what they do based on the chakras 405 00:31:41.799 --> 00:31:47.680 is a really good jumping off point for starting to understand crystals. Absolutely. 406 00:31:47.720 --> 00:31:51.279 And you know, as you're talking, I'm thinking about watermelon themaline, and 407 00:31:51.319 --> 00:31:56.480 I have a beautiful piece of watermelontermaline and it is green and pink right, 408 00:31:56.799 --> 00:32:01.079 and it's in layers. It's just beautiful. So here you have a balance 409 00:32:01.319 --> 00:32:06.319 of the work you need to do, and the work is you call the 410 00:32:06.480 --> 00:32:10.640 higher heart chakra work that's done, so there's a balance there of a lot 411 00:32:10.680 --> 00:32:15.519 of different kinds of heart energies. That's true in watermelon turmaline. It's true 412 00:32:15.680 --> 00:32:21.279 in unikite because you see both pink and green and unikite as well. Do 413 00:32:21.359 --> 00:32:23.720 you know, Zab, I do not have watermelon tourmaline. I have a 414 00:32:23.880 --> 00:32:30.200 beautiful piece that Joe gave me. It's small. Of course, I wouldn't 415 00:32:30.200 --> 00:32:34.400 sell it to you. I give it to you, but it's tiny. 416 00:32:34.519 --> 00:32:38.720 I mean, watermelon tourmaline is really expensive, but it's beautiful. Well, 417 00:32:38.759 --> 00:32:43.599 when Annie owned the Metaphysical store way back in the day that you and I 418 00:32:43.759 --> 00:32:47.839 loved, she had a beautiful piece of watermelon tormaline. And I had to 419 00:32:47.880 --> 00:32:52.799 set myself a crystal budget because you know, anyone who's just getting into crystals, 420 00:32:52.880 --> 00:32:55.319 no, you can go a little crazy. And I was like, 421 00:32:55.440 --> 00:32:59.000 oh my gosh, I need sugarlight, and I need this kuy and I 422 00:32:59.160 --> 00:33:02.079 and I need this chill suddenly. So she had this beautiful piece and it 423 00:33:02.240 --> 00:33:07.119 was expensive, and it was about three months worth of my crystal budget, 424 00:33:07.480 --> 00:33:09.359 and so I was like, now just save up for that, and then 425 00:33:09.400 --> 00:33:14.799 of course she sold it and every time I see watermelon tormaline, I compare 426 00:33:14.839 --> 00:33:16.799 it to that piece way back then, and I've never found a piece as 427 00:33:16.839 --> 00:33:21.839 beautiful as that one. You know, I had the same exact thing happened 428 00:33:21.880 --> 00:33:24.920 to me with malakite. I was at a place in my life where I 429 00:33:24.960 --> 00:33:30.359 thought, Okay, I'm brave enough to look at some things in my life 430 00:33:30.920 --> 00:33:36.279 and shift some energy and thoughts, and then so malakite will help me do 431 00:33:36.400 --> 00:33:40.319 that. And I was at a wonderful, wonderful store called Prairie Edge and 432 00:33:40.440 --> 00:33:47.000 Rapid City, South Dakota, and there was an absolutely exquisite malakite necklace made 433 00:33:47.079 --> 00:33:53.920 by somebody from think from the Pine Ridge Reservation, and it was ghastly expensive 434 00:33:54.400 --> 00:33:59.359 and I wouldn't let myself buy it. And I said, okay, if 435 00:33:59.400 --> 00:34:02.359 I come back next year, because I would come every so often, and 436 00:34:02.440 --> 00:34:06.960 if it's still here, I will buy it. When I went back, 437 00:34:07.039 --> 00:34:09.679 it was gone. But then not long after that, I was at a 438 00:34:09.920 --> 00:34:15.440 store owned by a beautiful jewelry maker on Ocracoke Island and she had a lovely 439 00:34:15.519 --> 00:34:20.920 piece of malakite too. It was very different. The energy of the stones 440 00:34:20.960 --> 00:34:23.719 were not the same, but I did buy the one from the woman in 441 00:34:23.800 --> 00:34:28.719 ocre Coke, and it did indeed do what I'd ask it to do and 442 00:34:29.000 --> 00:34:32.119 the work that we did together. So I was very grateful to finally have 443 00:34:32.199 --> 00:34:37.119 a piece of malachite, but my heart still could see the first one. 444 00:34:37.320 --> 00:34:40.599 You know, Yeah, I do, And it's been a good reminder when 445 00:34:40.679 --> 00:34:45.320 you have that, you know, instant connection to a crystal, to really 446 00:34:45.400 --> 00:34:46.400 think about it. Now. If it's not in your budget, it's not 447 00:34:46.519 --> 00:34:51.280 in your budget. But I do hope that that one of melintormally will come 448 00:34:51.360 --> 00:34:54.079 back to me in some way, shape or form. Some stones, as 449 00:34:54.119 --> 00:35:00.519 we've been talking about you mentioned earlier, help clean or clear our take care 450 00:35:00.599 --> 00:35:06.599 of other stones. And there are some stones that never need cleaning. Should 451 00:35:06.599 --> 00:35:09.239 we move on to talking about that, sure, Yeah, Kyanite, for 452 00:35:09.360 --> 00:35:14.920 example, does not need to be cleansed. Carnelian does not. These are 453 00:35:15.000 --> 00:35:20.079 some hard working stones, super seven citrine, as as telite. There's a 454 00:35:20.159 --> 00:35:22.480 few other but those are kind of some of the most common ones people will 455 00:35:22.719 --> 00:35:29.639 encounter, and I think it's just absolutely amazing, especially kyanite, who I 456 00:35:29.840 --> 00:35:35.119 just have such a special fondness for because kyanite does so much the blue kyanite 457 00:35:35.480 --> 00:35:40.000 in particular, it grows in a blade like formation. And the blue cayanite, 458 00:35:40.079 --> 00:35:45.159 so again let's think about the color blue. It's going to be connected 459 00:35:45.199 --> 00:35:46.920 to your throat chakra, and if it's a dark blue, it can be 460 00:35:47.000 --> 00:35:52.159 throat chakra and third eye chakra work. It helps to clear, cleanse and 461 00:35:52.199 --> 00:35:55.880 align your chakras. That's a lot for one little stone, and it doesn't 462 00:35:57.679 --> 00:36:00.639 it really is and it doesn't have to be cleansed, and it does help 463 00:36:00.719 --> 00:36:06.760 you speak your truth. If you get black eyanite again, it grows in 464 00:36:06.840 --> 00:36:14.400 a wand blade like formation. That's more like a wand and it's fantastic for 465 00:36:14.760 --> 00:36:21.559 cord cutting and for protecting your energy. So again associating the colors. Black 466 00:36:21.719 --> 00:36:29.000 stones are always going to be grounding and protective and super calming. Bluestones are 467 00:36:29.039 --> 00:36:32.519 going to be peaceful as well and help you communicate your truth. And the 468 00:36:32.599 --> 00:36:36.800 orange cainite, like we said, connected to sacred chakra, is going to 469 00:36:36.840 --> 00:36:40.800 help with creativity and things like that. But kyanite is a fantastic stone. 470 00:36:42.239 --> 00:36:47.000 Satrine does not need to be cleansed. Citrine is fantastic for encouraging your sense 471 00:36:47.039 --> 00:36:50.840 of I am? You know who am I? What is my place in 472 00:36:50.880 --> 00:36:54.039 the world where do I fit in. It's wonderful for confidence, joy, 473 00:36:54.519 --> 00:37:00.880 living in the present moment, feeling courage, feeling feeling feeling happy in the 474 00:37:00.920 --> 00:37:05.960 moment. And the great thing about citrine, Carnelian, and kyanite, they're 475 00:37:06.000 --> 00:37:10.119 not expensive stones, especially citrine and Carnelian. So if you're a beginner to 476 00:37:10.199 --> 00:37:15.519 this, I would definitely don't start out getting a Zez too Light or Super 477 00:37:15.599 --> 00:37:20.480 seven or those expensive ones until you know this is really something you're interested in. 478 00:37:21.159 --> 00:37:24.840 Start with more of the abundant, easy to find stones, like a 479 00:37:24.920 --> 00:37:29.840 citrine or a Carnelian or a cayanite. I mean, you can get a 480 00:37:29.920 --> 00:37:35.519 cayanite blade in most metaphysical stores for about fifteen dollars max. And that's a 481 00:37:35.599 --> 00:37:38.800 really important point, is and this is my opinion. You might disagree, 482 00:37:38.840 --> 00:37:44.119 Samantha, but size does not matter when it comes to works. It really 483 00:37:44.199 --> 00:37:47.320 doesn't. And it's tumbled better than raw. I don't know, it's a 484 00:37:47.400 --> 00:37:52.079 matter of preference. There's some stones it's a whole lot easier to find in 485 00:37:52.199 --> 00:37:57.639 a tumbled bin and that works just fine. I mean I have paid three 486 00:37:57.760 --> 00:38:02.599 or four dollars for a tumbled stone. I paid more for some other things. 487 00:38:02.679 --> 00:38:07.159 But you know, a tumbled or not doesn't matter, and size doesn't 488 00:38:07.199 --> 00:38:12.119 matter. So if you're one of those people who suddenly wants to be like 489 00:38:12.159 --> 00:38:15.519 a kid in a candy store and get every rock you've heard us talk about 490 00:38:15.559 --> 00:38:20.960 today, plus take your time really get to know the rocks, learn about 491 00:38:21.000 --> 00:38:24.440 them, and give yourself permission to if you want to just explore and see 492 00:38:24.440 --> 00:38:29.440 whether or not you resonate with a rock, go find one for five or 493 00:38:29.639 --> 00:38:34.559 six dollars. For a tumblestone, Well, size doesn't matter because of what 494 00:38:34.679 --> 00:38:37.280 we said earlier, how the latt of structure is repeated throughout the crystal, 495 00:38:38.000 --> 00:38:42.440 so it doesn't matter if it's tiny or large. It's the same ladder structure. 496 00:38:42.480 --> 00:38:46.000 It's the same vibratory read. And the raw versus tumbled that's a debate 497 00:38:46.199 --> 00:38:50.920 and anyone can have and there's no right or wrong answer. Rawstones have more 498 00:38:50.960 --> 00:38:53.760 of that raw pure energy. But the tumblestones, you know, all their 499 00:38:53.840 --> 00:38:58.679 rough edges have been polished off. You can see some aspects of the stone 500 00:38:58.760 --> 00:39:02.159 shine out a little bit bright. And if you look into vocals work that 501 00:39:02.239 --> 00:39:07.519 I be a engineer. The work he did on how to shape stones, 502 00:39:07.840 --> 00:39:13.280 especially the vocal wand which he patented and is absolutely a super fun rabbit hole 503 00:39:13.320 --> 00:39:17.400 to go down. He showed that sometimes when you shape stones into certain formations, 504 00:39:17.480 --> 00:39:22.480 it actually enhances the stone. So it's just you know, up to 505 00:39:22.559 --> 00:39:24.760 you. Yeah, absolutely, I'll be talking about a soda light egg and 506 00:39:24.800 --> 00:39:29.440 a little bit we're going to be talking about well, next week, we're 507 00:39:29.480 --> 00:39:34.079 going to talk about some of our favorite personal crystals and the stories behind them, 508 00:39:34.639 --> 00:39:37.400 and we're going to be talking about some fun things you can do with 509 00:39:37.559 --> 00:39:43.639 your crystals. And we're also going to be talking about some stones that don't 510 00:39:43.760 --> 00:39:47.119 get enough hype, that need to be more out there, that aren't commonly 511 00:39:47.320 --> 00:39:52.679 mentioned so that we can give them some love too. So we hope you 512 00:39:52.719 --> 00:39:55.360 will tune into us next week when we talk about that. Do you want 513 00:39:55.400 --> 00:40:00.840 to add anything before we go? I don't. Thanks so much more to 514 00:40:00.920 --> 00:40:04.400 talk about. I'm excited about how we're going to continue this episode next week, 515 00:40:04.440 --> 00:40:08.039 Samantha, me too.
