Energy and Crystal Work Book

The following information has been compiled from many sources. I felt a workbook was needed that covered the basic facts in a easy to read format. Please enjoy the work book and if you have any suggestions or input feel free to contact me. One of the most important things to remember when working with your self or another is the intent. If your intent is proper, then you can even do a procedure incorrectly and it will work. If you find that doing a procedure differently works better for you, then do whatever feels right.

Drumming exercise:

Drumming is used to center and ground yourself. Becoming centered will bring back any of your scattered energy and will allow you to feel relaxed and whole. You will also become grounded and this will allow to feel your connection with the mother earth. Make light fists and start drumming from the top left side of your head, continuing down the side, including the ear and neck. After you have repeated this exercise 3 times drum the right side of your head. Now cup your hands and finger drum your forehead, your face and your neck. Repeat 3 times. Grab your ears at the top and pull up, then grab your ears at the center and pull out, then grab the lobe and pull down. Repeat 3 times. Make a light fist with your right hand and drum down the left side of your neck, down the outside of your arm and then up the inside. After you have completed this exercise three times make a fist with your left hand and drum down your right side. Repeat 3 times. With both of your fists drum down the left side of your chest to your solar plexus 3 times then drum down the right side of your chest 3 times. Now in a kneeling position make a fist with both of your hands and place them on the left and right side of your groin. Now inhale, and as you are bending over to the floor, exhale all of your air out. Repeat 3 times. Still in a kneeling position and with both of your hands stretched out straight and strong, turn them inward and place them 2 inches above the left and the right side of your groin. Now inhale, and as you are bending over to the floor exhale all of your air out. Repeat 3 times. Kneeling and with stretched fingers place them under the left and right hand side of the rib cage. Take a deep breath and exhale as you bend over to the floor. Repeat 3 times. In a sitting position make a light fist and drum your left leg with your right hand. Drum down the outside of your leg around the foot and up the inside of your leg. Repeat 3 times then drum your right leg with you left hand 3 times. This exercise will require the help of a friend to complete. In a sitting position have your friend make light fists and drum down the left side of your back. Repeat 3 times then have your friend do the same on the right side. Now have your friend cup both hands and drum up and down your spine at least 3 times.

Chanting stimulates the flow of your vibrations and energizes them for you. Chant the following 3 times except for the last chant which should be repeated until you feel it time to stop.

Mo-Raa-Ah

This is used to balance between the male and female vibrational expressions.

A-LE-U, BA-O

This chant prepares the persons vibrations for meditation and for learning.

YO-OOH-DA

This chant is the sound of God Within

O-OH-DA, FAA-RO

Aligns you with frequencies of the nature spirits.

OM is the universal Chant, for a higher vibration.

The Five Bodies

Most people are aware of their physical body only. When dealing with metaphysics, there are actually five bodies. They are as follows:

Physical body is what you see and touch.

Etheric Body is one inch from your physical body and is effected by the same things that effect your physical body.

Astral body surrounds the etheric body and is effect by your emotions.

Mental body surrounds the astral body and is effected by your thoughts.

Causal Body surrounds all your bodies and is effected by your higher mental thoughts such as prayers.

The Chakras

We will be discussing the 7 major chakras: Base or root chakra, navel chakra, solar plexus chakra, heart chakra, throat chakra, third eye chakra, and crown chakra.

The chakras are force centers that appear as multi colored spoked wheels to those that can see them. The chakras are points of energy that transform, absorb, filter and distribute vitality to the etheric and physical body. If your one of your chakras is underdeveloped, you may have problems dealing with issues in your life. For example if your heart chakra was not fully developed, you may have problems dealing with love or your emotions. When your chakras are in balance and fully developed you will live a full and rewarding life. Each chakra has a color that is associated with it, there are many opinions on what the actual colors are.

The following is a list of the seven major chakras:

The root chakra is located at the base of the spine. The colors associated with this center are red and black. This center is mostly concerned with basic survival.

The second chakra is the navel chakra and is located at the navel. The colors associated with this center are red and orange. This center is mostly concerned with use of will.

The third chakra is the solar plexus and is located about 2 inches above the navel. The colors associated with this center are yellow and green. This center is mostly concerned with your source of energy or well being.

The fourth chakra is the heart chakra and is located about 2 inches above the solar plexus. The colors associated with this center are pink and yellow. This center is mostly concerned with emotion.

The fifth chakra is the throat chakra and is located at the indentation of the neck. The color associated with this center is blue. This is the communication center.

The sixth chakra is the third eye and is located in the middle of the forehead. The colors associated with this center are indigo and purple. This center is mostly concerned with inner sight.

The seventh chakra is the crown chakra and is located at the top of your head. The colors associated with this center are clear and violet. This center is mostly concerned with the highest knowledge and wisdom.

Meridian Lines

Meridian lines consist of the energy flow of your body. This energy flows in a pattern or direction. Looking at the diagram notice the body and the direction of the meridian lines. Now take your hands and rub them together. When your hands have become sensitive follow your meridian lines around your body three times. Being aware of the flow of the meridian lines will help you to improve your healing skills.

The Aura

The Aura is a invisible fluid that surrounds all things. In pictures of Christ the halo surrounding his head was an aura. Some feel that only gifted healers are able to see the aura. I believe that with practice it is possible for anyone to see the aura.

Aura Scanning

Have the person to be scanned sit in a chair or lay flat on a table. Allow them to become relaxed and then center and clear yourself. Rub your hands together quickly until they become hot and then separate them and feel the vibrations. Then slowly approach the person to be scanned. Place your hands over the body and quickly scan the persons aura. Take notice of any hot or cold spots, are there any areas that lack energy. Remember these areas for later, they may need extra attention during the healing.

GUIDE TO CRYSTALS

Respect quartz crystals as living entities in crystalline form. When first working with crystals it is a good idea to get into a relaxed state and clear your thoughts.

The following exercise seems to work well: Sit cross-legged on the floor, or erect in a straight backed chair. Then close your eyes and take several deep breaths through your nose, let the air fill your upper chest completely -- then exhale. Then breathe normally through your nose paying attention to the flow of air in and out of your lungs. Do this until you feel relaxed, it may take any where from a few minutes to 20 minutes.

Grounding Exercise:

Grounding is a must when working with crystals. Lack of a solid ground with the earth can result in a person feeling spacy or nervous during normal daily activities. There are several ways to ground yourself the following are some examples:

1) Eat a light snack. Physical grounding will occur automatically.

2) Use a grounding stone such as Hematite or Smoky Quartz. Touch or hold it in your hand.

3) Get into your relaxed state. Imagine that you have roots growing from the bottom of your feet. The roots go deeply into the ground holding you fast.

4) Drumming to become centered and grounded.

5) Get into your relaxed state. Imagine copper grounding rods extending from the bottom of your feet going down deep into the ground.

Visualization is the best way to ground yourself. After establishing your ground imagine that the earth is sending up energy from the ground. This energy is drawn up and through you, refreshing your whole body.

Selecting your crystal:

Selecting a crystal is a very individual (personal) experience. Each crystal has a unique vibration or frequency. Select a crystal with a vibration that is in harmony with you. Here are two exercises that will help you select your crystal:

1) Rub your hands together for about 30 seconds, then move your hands slowly apart (1-3 inches) then slowly move them together. Continue this exercise 4 to 5 times each time expanding the distance between your hands. Also try blowing lightly on your hands while moving them apart. Notice any sensations. Common sensations include tingling or the presence of energy.

2) Rub your hands together to sensitize them. Pass your left hand closely over the crystal. Do you feel hot or cold sensations, energy passing from the stone or are you attracted to a particular crystal? If so place the crystal in your left hand and examine it closely. If you feel a connection with the crystal it was meant for your use. If you feel no connection to a particular crystal repeat the process and try to relax and let your inner self help you in selecting your crystal.

Cleansing your crystal:

It is necessary to cleanse your crystal when it is first selected. Cleansing removes all previous vibrations, emotions and energy. This is necessary so you can program your own energy patterns into your crystal. The following is a list of ways to cleanse your crystal. Use whatever method feels right to you.

1) Place your crystal in the grass and let it stay for 24 hours.

2) Bury under the ground for 2-14 days

3) Place in a running stream for 2-14 days

4) Pack in salt for 1-2 days (Marcel Vogel does not recommend this use.)

Fast Cleansing:

If time does not allow use the following method.

1) Hold your crystal under running tap water in both of your hands for 1 minute. While doing this imagine white light cleansing the crystal.

2) Hold your crystal between the thumb and index finger of your left hand. Index finger on top. Then take your right thumb and place on one side of the crystal and your right index finger on the other side. Take a deep breath and image white light filling the crystal or just imagine to your self that you are clearing the crystal. Now exhale the intention forcefully through your nose into the crystal. Repeat several times until you feel that your crystal is cleared.

Charging your crystal:

Now that you have cleansed your crystal it you need to charge it with energy. The following is a list of charging methods:

1) Place the crystal in your right hand holding the tip away from you. Take a deep breath and image filling the crystal with love. Pulse your breath out of your nose and know that your breath has been placed into the crystal. Now to test the charge hold your crystal horizontal. Hold the crystal with your thumb and forefingers, with your third finger rub this surface. On a charged crystal, when you exhale, the finger will stick and when you draw your breath in, the charge will be released. When exhaled the charge comes back.

2) Place your crystal in or beneath a pyramid

3) Place your crystal in the sunlight or moon light for 1-2 days

4) Place your crystal in the moon light. Leave it until after the morning dew

5) Place your crystal outside during a thunderstorm.

6) Place your crystal outside during a hail or snow storm.

Clearing Your Crystal of Vibrations

Programming Your Crystal:

Hold your crystal between the thumb and index finger of your left hand. Index finger on top. Then take your right thumb and place on one side of the crystal and your right index finger on the other side. Take a deep breath and image white light filling the crystal or just imagine to your self that you are clearing the crystal. Now exhale the intention forcefully through your nose into the crystal. Repeat several times until you feel your crystal has been cleared. Now hold your crystal in your left hand and rotate it slowly counter clockwise. Clear your mind, take a deep breath and visualize what you want to program into your crystal. (Open your third eye, develop your inner senses.) Exhale forcefully through your nose with the intent of your thought programming your crystal. Once you have programmed your crystal, it is beneficial to carry out with you for the next 30 days or so. You may even put your crystal under your pillow at night. This will allow your crystal and you to be come attuned to each other. Your crystal will also protect you against negative emotions and strengthen your auric field.

Combing out the aura

To comb out the aura have the person lay flat on a table and then clear and center your self. Start at the top of the head and work down the left side and then the right. Always bringing the energy from the top of head. Work in sections divide the body as follows, The left arm, the left chest, the left leg, the right arm, the right chest, the right leg. When you have completed comb from the head to the toes.

Aura Attunement

Have the person lay face up on a table and relax. Clear and center yourself. Clear your crystal and charge it. Now slowly enter the persons aura. From the top of their head move the crystal in a circular motion. Then around the left arm, the left side of the chest, the left leg and then the same on the right side of the body. When you have completed, do the whole body from the head to the toes. Now place your hands on the head and chant I Am.

Laying of Stones

If the person your going to lay healing stones on feels comfortable, let them pick their own stones. If not pick out whatever stones that you feel would be good for their chakras. Again have them lay down on a table and become relaxed. Place the stones over the areas that feel are right, and stay with them. Allow them all the time they need.

Chakra Balancing

Have the person lay face up on a table and allow them to become relaxed, center your self. Take your quartz pendulum and starting at the head swirl it from top to bottom. Then move the pendulum around in circles around the head, then move to the left arm, the chest, the legs then do the same on the right side. Now entering from 2 feet or so bring your pendulum within 1 inch of the base chakra allow it to become stable and then pull it directly up and move on to the next chakra. Continue until all the chakras are in balance. Then take the pendulum and in one continuous motion move from left the shoulder to right hip. Then up from the right hip to the right shoulder. Crossover to the left hip then place the crystal over the heart chakra, pull up quickly and immediately place your hand over the heart chakra. Now place both hands on their head and chant I am.
