    • Creating a Clearing & Aligning Crystal Grid in Your Home

      Creating a Clearing & Aligning Crystal Grid in Your Home, by Anysia Marcell Kiel

      (Article originally published in The Llewellyn Journal.)

      Spring is a great time to add a new energy clearing technique to your home. As we integrate positive changes for the upcoming months, creating a crystal grid in your home can really shift the energy in it. (Everything that happens in your home gets imprinted energetically in each room; the crystal grid transmutes that energy, so that it doesn't remain in the home.)

      Crystal grids can cleanse, align, and shield the energy in any home. When we set the crystals in any space, the points emit beams of energy that are projected into the space. The beams of energy can go through walls and all physical objects. Multiple crystals create multiple beams. When we arrange the crystals in a pattern, they form an energetic grid that keeps the energy of the home at a high frequency. Anything below the grid's energetic frequency will be cleared from the space.

      There are several different types of grids one can create depending on the energetic effect desired; the grid in this exercise is designed to clear and align the energy in a space.

      When we speak of aligning the energy in a home, we want its inhabitants and those people who visit to feel that the energy is peaceful and comfortable. We also want to use the crystals to cleanse the energy of any lower vibrational imprints. If someone has depression and spends a lot of time in a den, the energy in that room will feel sad and heavy; it may even feel to some people like they are totally stifled and can't breathe in that room. Once the crystals are in place, people will feel a sense of peace. The energy will be cleared and lighter.

      For the overall crystal grid in a home, I use clear quartz for a couple of reasons:

      1. It's the highest vibrational frequency of any crystal on Earth at this point.
      2. It is self-cleansing, so you do not need to remove the crystals and soak them in salt water or sunlight every week. Because it is self-cleansing, it is also energetically continuously cleansing the environment. So basically, you set the crystals in place and the clear quartz does everything else.

      For gridding spaces in this way, we generally use 1-2 inch clear quartz points. Clear quartz has a very high frequency; if you hold a piece of the quartz in your hand, you can feel the vibration's strength. For this reason, we only need to use 1-2 inch points with this grid. (Anything larger might emit too much energy and energetically overwhelm people.) The quartz points can be double- or single-terminated (double-terminated means there is a point at each end, and single-terminated means there is one point and the other end of the crystal is flat.)

      If your home is square or rectangular in shape, you will need one crystal in each corner of your home. For example, if you have a living room in the right front corner of your house and a dining room in the left front corner of your home, you will place one crystal in the far corner of each room. You would do the same for the back corners of your home. So for a one-level, square home, the grid will consist of four quartz points set in each corner of the home. If your home is more than one level, you will want to have a grid on each level. If your home is non-rectangular or square, you can add additional crystals to balance the grid. Position the point of each crystal outward if the crystal has one point on each end. If the crystal has two points (or is double-terminated), just place the crystal in the corner and it does not matter which point is facing outward.

      When you place one clear quartz point in each of the four corners of the home, they can be positioned in the corners on the floor, but if you have concerns about children or animals being injured by them (or perhaps ingesting them), you can place them up higher on shelving or door and window moldings. Once the crystals are in place, envision them connecting energetically—each one emitting a laser of energy outward from its point. Each point's laser of energy contributes to the grid. Energy is emitted from the point as well as out of the side of each crystal. Each crystal is releasing a vibrational laser from its point and connecting to the crystal positioned diagonally from it. Thus the space is being cleansed, aligned, and shielded completely not only on the perimeter but also through all the rooms.

      The exercise below can be used to grid a home or office space. (Clear quartz works great for offices.) I have a crystal grid on the floor in my office, along the chair rail in the middle of the walls, and and along the ceiling on all of the moldings. Since one side of my office comes up against a couple of doors that lead to other office spaces, I have separate grids at the bottom and tops of all doors, as well. This keeps the energy from my space contained in my office and the energy of other offices in their spaces. I recommend office grids for anyone doing any type of therapeutic work or anyone who just finds the energy of their work place.

      What you will need for this exercise: 1-2 inch clear quartz points (single- or double-terminated)

      1. Set your clear quartz points over night in a bowl of salt water. Although they are self-cleansing, it is important to remove any elemental dust they might contain from the mining process.
      2. Decide if it is safe to place the grid on your floor, or if it needs to be higher up if you have animals and children.
      3. Place one crystal in each corner of your home. Be sure to face the point outward and the flat end toward the wall if you are using single-terminated points.
      4. Add additional points if needed to balance the space.
      5. Place a grid in the same pattern upstairs and on any other levels of your home, if you have more than one level.
      6. Allow the grid(s) to set in place for a few days. Then check the energy in the house by walking through each room. Decide if you need additional crystals or if the space feels peaceful and aligned.

      Good luck with your grids and may the energy in your home always be peaceful, balanced, and full of light.

    • Double Vision: Psychometry

      Interesting Twist on Psychometry

      My birthday is Nov. 11, 1982. Ever since I was a little girl, whenever someone holds something that belongs to me and treats it gently or with great care, I feel a strange, warm tingling sensation that seems to start in the center of my chest and expand outward in every direction. This happens whether it’s something I treasure like a favorite stuffed animal or a photograph, or something as trivial as a pencil. It happened constantly when I was young, and it still happens now that I’m an adult, though not as often. For many years I didn’t think anything of it because it was just a normal part of my experience. Since I’ve never heard of anyone else experiencing this, however, I now realize it is probably unusual. What on earth is this feeling? I’m very curious!

      – Trudy

      Dreamchaser:

      You are an empath, which means you can feel the emotions of those around you. This happens most often when someone holds something of yours.

      First let’s explore some definitions:

      Empathy: n. 1. The ability to sense and/or understand emotion(s) from another person, animal or inanimate object incorporating stimulation to any and or all of the senses (including the sixth sense) without verbally being told and/or without obvious visual clues. 2. The ability to be sensitive and receptive to outside emotional stimuli. –  adj. empathic or empathetic., v. to empathize

      Empath: n. 1. A person who has the ability to experience empathy towards another person, and/or animate/inanimate objects, in part or from all of the above definition. 2. A person who is sensitive to the emotions in others.

      I am sure that you can also feel other people’s emotions. If you walk past someone who is sad on the sidewalk, you just “know” it and you feel that sadness inside of yourself. When a friend comes to you with problems, I’m sure you cry with them and feel their pain.

      The fact that you can sense how someone feels about you when they hold something of yours is an interesting twist that displays that your heart chakra (located at your solar plexus) is very big. It is probably your largest chakra.

      I would like for you to do the following exercise frequently to make sure you stay grounded, which is very important for you.

      Sit peacefully and relax. Let the ground or chair support you. Let your muscles go. Take in an easy, deep breath, and then let it out your mouth, parting your lips slightly as you exhale.

      Let your arms feel heavy, pulling down your shoulders. Breathe. Let that heavy feeling flow down your torso and legs so you feel deeply relaxed all the way down to your feet on the ground.

      Now picture and feel roots growing from your feet into the ground like a tree’s roots going down into the layers of cool dirt, growing around rocks, traveling further and further down into the earth. Let the roots grow as deep as you wish.

      Now feel the healing, rhythmic energy of the earth itself flowing up through your roots, slowly traveling up to your feet, up through your legs and quickly filling your entire body. Feel this positive, grounded, earth energy throughout your entire being. Take in a deep cleansing breath, and exhale.

      When you are ready, open your eyes and know that this grounded energy will remain with you throughout your day.

      I wish you peace and calm.

      *****
      Astrea:

      Without the time and place you were born, I can’t determine your whole astrological chart, but in your general chart, I do see why you’re having this experience.

      You have Mercury, Venus, Jupiter and Mars in Scorpio! Your moon is in Libra (very sensitive), but it’s on the cusp of Scorpio. Uranus is on the cusp of Scorpio and Sagittarius. You have so much Scorpio in your chart! No wonder you feel so intensely when others hold your possessions.

      In fact, in 30 years of drawing charts, I’ve never seen one with so much Scorpio. This is extremely unusual.

      You are one of our precious indigo children here to change the world. With that in mind, you have been given an unusual ability to go right to the heart of what someone is feeling.

      Also, as a water sign, you would be more sensitive to others’ emotions than thoughts, so when someone is having warm and loving feelings about you, and holding an item of value to you, you pick that up and pull it into your harmony.

      Your Scorpio sun allows you to feel the emotions others feel for you. In fact, since you have several planets in Scorpio, you must be very psychically gifted all around. With your natural ability, your mind is able to focus on others in a sharp, penetrating way. Even if you’re not consciously thinking about others’ feelings, when they’re holding something of yours, your mind and spirit will resonate with them.

      You felt this more as a child because you didn’t think then that you should have to control your natural ability. Education,  prejudices and religious pressure probably caused you to block a good bit of your ability. Please try not to do that!

      You indigo and crystal kids are all we have to help the world out of the mess the rest of us have made it. We need you to be able to use every tiny bit of ability you were born with. Developing your gift will open up other gifts to you that  you may not even realize you have.

      Try to practice every chance you get. If you need to be sneaky about it, all that Scorpio in your chart should help. “Subtle” is a key word in describing your personality. Be nonchalant, and you’ll be amazed at how much information will instantly be available to you.

      For example, you might hand someone your keys and see what you feel. While I realize you don’t “love” your keys, they’re still very important to you, and they’re metal, so they’re good conductors of energy.

      As time goes by, you’ll be able to develop this skill into something very useful for the world. It may take a lot of work and practice, but believe me, it will be worth it.
