Crystals

Earth’s Secret Wisdom Keepers and Healers

Being a lover of nature and a terrible romantic in this article I introduce the Lovely World of Crystals through the Eyes of the Beautiful Rose Quartz (Characteristics).

Our fascination with crystals has been with us since the dawn of time.  Revered for decades they share incredible gifts and wisdom.  Born in the darkness of the Earth and infused with the light of the Universe crystals represent perfect duality. 

These interesting gems take on strange and wonderful looking forms naturally, have life energy of their own and come in many different forms sizes and shapes.

Natural beauties, in the past they have been valued as sacred items and known for balancing or amplifying energy fields. Nowadays however we use them more commonly for decoration, good luck charms, jewellery and as tools for healing - protecting and attracting positive energy.

In short, crystals can be used around the house as ornaments, and tools for meditation, divination and self development.

Truly nature’s wonders, their shape, colour and sparkle will always fascinate…speaking for myself, I certainly have fallen under their spell, and don’t mind admitting to being one of their besotted admirers.

Whether we are curious and want to learn more about crystals or interested in Crystal Healing, Geology or just want to own a beautiful, natural and unique item there can be little doubt that crystals can bring joy into our lives and help to enhance our well-being.
