Every dollar plants a tree.
So, you got yourself some shiny new crystals or natural stone jewelry. After looking at them with much admiration, do you just simply place them in a special corner at home or just wear them? Well, yeah, you can. But after learning about all the benefits and positive energies these natural stones and crystals can give, you might want to harness them and maximize their full potential.
Choosing your crystals is often a very personal experience. You probably bought a particular piece to attract love, or to boost your self-esteem and confidence, or maybe to help you in your healing journey. Whether you’re aware of it or not, you select pieces that resonate with you. While these stones and crystals already possess energies for specific purposes, you would like to communicate with them to clarify your intentions and focus their energies towards your goals.
Now, “programming” may sound complicated, but fret not. This simply means the act of purposefully directing the energies of these crystals to work in alignment with your goals. It’s like telling a friend where you want to go. Then that friend of yours holds your hand and accompanies you in your journey while giving you the help you need along the way.
Good question. You can opt to just wear them the minute you get them. Besides, these pieces already know their specific purpose. But the act of programming your natural stones and crystals is asking them to perform their functions according to your objectives and aligning them with your goals. In that way, you are clear about what you want to manifest in your reality.
A programmed stone or crystal is more powerful, focused, and effective.
Before we get into the details, keep in mind that these pieces had to pass through different hands before they got to you. Meaning, they’ve been exposed to other people’s energies before they reach their forever home. And you don’t know what kind of vibes these strangers have. Knowing this, it’s best to cleanse and charge them before programming.
Here we go…
Programming your natural stones and crystals is quite simple and straightforward. (No, you don’t need to be a reiki healer or a Hogwarts graduate to do this). Anyone can do it! Here’s how:
1. Settle in a quiet, comfortable place where no one can disturb you.
2. Take a few deep breaths to help clear your mind and relax. Playing some meditation music can help too.
3. State your intentions or affirmations either by writing them on a piece of paper or saying them out loud or in your head. Here are some examples:
“I will work together with this crystal to have peace of mind and self-love.”
“I program this crystal for abundance, prosperity, and success.”
“I charge this crystal with my intention to heal myself and cleanse my aura for a more positive and vibrant life.”
If you’ve written them down, you may place the piece of paper in front of you and place your
crystals on top of it. If not, you can simply hold your stones and crystals.
4. With closed eyes, visualize yourself living your intentions, as if it’s happening in the present moment. Be aware of your emotions and use your senses to visualize having and living that intention in your reality.
5. Still with closed eyes, envision a white light energy from the universe flowing into your crown chakra or the top of your head. Feel its energy flow through your body, into your hands, and out into the stones and crystals. Allow them to bathe in this pure, white light as it collects energy from your intentions and affirmations.
6. Before ending, say a heartfelt “Thank you”, grateful that your intentions have already been set and are manifesting into your reality.
7. Take one deep breath and you’re done!
Easy, right?
Remember, the most important step in programming your natural stones and crystals is communicating and transferring your intentions to them. That way, they will radiate energies that align with your intentions. Believe that the desires of your heart are now manifesting and are on their way to you! Namaste 🙏
