Jish, crystals, self-hypnosis

I was finally able to offer corn meal to the winds today, the six directions. Thank you to sixhunter who got me those small little cute teacups. I think the winds were quite pleased with the offering.

As usual, I invited them in, and offered them white sage smoke as well, asking for protection, and the creation of boundaries.

Today, it was more to smudge and work with a few crystals. Which was ironic – I am a skeptic when it comes to believing in the power of crystals. Yet, with the knowledge that scientifically, crystals such as clear quartz are used as storage of energy and amplification of those to power say, things like watches, my skepticism diminished slightly. I wouldn’t go so far as to say that I’m absolutely sure crystals work on a spiritual or intangible level, but there is a possibility – after all, a lot of facts now were fantastical conjectures in the past, and only when physical equipment became advanced enough to measure those fantasies that they became ‘facts.’

So…what the hell? I shall pretend. No loss to me, anyway.

I worked with a clear quartz wand and a lapis lazuli (both given by a very dear friend though we don’t speak much), and a citrine piece I bought. Perhaps it was the ‘pretending’ that made them work, but the three crystals worked together to focus my thoughts and intentions into an intensity that was somewhat astounding. Even after the hypnosis session, my whole head throbbed a little, when it has almost-never done so before.

I was actually able to almost feel my power coming out from my skin, and I ‘pretended’ to see through the illusion of time and space, and followed my lines and waves of power to the farthest reaches of the universe. I got a sense of something similar to the exact meeting line of tectonic plates on earth – that they are destroyed somewhere and recreated somewhere else even as they expand.

I was better able, also, to feel that my point of power is in the present, even though part of my consciousness kind of travelled the waves and took peeks at the probable pasts and probable futures.

Kiesh’ra was quite happy that I found the lapis. I think that was the crystal he wanted. No idea why. I told him not to get any weird ideas as well. First time I’ve seen him smile so widely. Um…something is up. *not so subtle hint to him*

Perhaps I shall start working with these three crystals a lot more from now on. At least as a focus of my thoughts, and amplification of them.
