Clear Quartz

The work Quartz id German; the word crstal is derived from the Greek work 'krystallos', meaning ice. Magnetism is very important in the human body and diagnosis. The blood is the key to diagnosis, and the chemical makeup of blood includes iron, which makes up the coloring agent in red blood cells. The magnetic charges that are present in the rock crystal Quartz pick up and detect any imbalance. In matters of health, it is a transmitter of imbalance detected by magnetism anywhere in the body. Quartz crystal is remarkably powerful in sensitive persons. When a crstal is laid in the palm of a sensitive, it causes ab involuntary clasping ir clenching, almost a spasm of the wrist.

I often hear from people and friends that they would like to have just one main stone/crystal to use. You don't have to keep buying new crystals everytime you use one in a ritual/spell work. Here is a VERY simple way to cleanse and recharge your stone/crystal.
Procedure: Take your personal stone/crystal and place it into full sunlight for about 4 hours. Then reuse.
or:
Take a bowl of water and a bowl of salt. (You can use normal table salt, but sea salt is better.) Place the crystal in the water and put three pinches of salt into the water. Put personal power in the bowl. Remove the crystal and use when needed.
I hope that helps out.
Blessings, William [glow=red,2,300]Quasarian Inferno.[/glow]
