Energy from Crystals
Could anybody explain to me, on my recent visits to a Crystal shop or fair I feel an immense pressure in my head and feel that I have to leave. Is this normal and is there any thing I can do to prevent this happening.
An insight on this would be appreciated
Thanks

Hey purple,
I can't help at all, but totally can relate to your post. I have *exactly* the same response (which is a shame because I love crystals)
I'm looking forward to seeing what others' say!

What do you feel when you have to leave?
I might hazard a guess that you need to protect yourself better, and are being a bit bombarded by too much going on at once. Some people seem almost to be toosensitive to others auric or energy fields and can get a sense of being overwhelmed.Does that make any sense to you?
Also, if this is only a recent phenomenum for you, then it might be that you are becoming more open and perceptive, which is great, but at a cost to yourself, which is not so great. Does it happen at any other times? Or just when you are in a place where a lot of crystals are gathered together?

Hi Ros
Thank you for your reply.
I do think that I need to protect myself better but I don't know how, can you help?
There are other times when this happens not very often but sometimes when I am in a crowded place or a new place,it is a really weird feeling, when it does happen I hold my Red Tigers Eye and ask for protection, it goes eventually but usually when I have left my surroundings.
I have been attuned to Reiki1 do you think this has anything to do with it
Thank you so much

Hello Purple
To help protect yourself from being bombarded from unwanted energies, place your hand over your solar plexus and request Reiki to help protect you, or in your minds eye draw a circle & place a cross within it ~over the solar plexus, either of these actions should help, and should be usedpreferably before going into crowded areas, but work just as well if used whilst there:)

[sm=nature-smiley-008.gif]Sounds as though you are very open to the energies around you. I do notice that even in the Mind Body and Soul departments of bookshops that I can feel quite high energy levels. We all leave some energy behind when we visit places. The grounding advice is good that the others have given you. One crystal shop I visited did have very high energy levels in it, and I did comment on the atmosphere. It felt as though it needed cleansing as it was quite overpowering at times in different areas. The shop was quite small and mostly had crystals dotted all around the shop. Some shops tend to have their crystals in one place and the energy seems more contained. Hope it calms down for you as there is nothing quite so joyful as crystals!

I began working with crystals about 5 years ago and often felt overwhelmed when in the presence of a lot of crystals. As I am a Crystal Healer and retailer I often go to warehouses full of crystals and that can - if you are unprepared blow your mind!
Now I enclose myself in a protective bubble before entering a warehouse or a small shop with a lot of crystals in it - anywhere where the energies are compact - supermarkets and trains/tube are the same. My bubble is Grounded as am I so the energies have somewhere to go.
If you want to open up a little so you can check out how juicy a particular crystal is you can bring it into your field with Intent.
Hope thishelps.
Answers:
Thank you all for your replies.
I think as I am new to this energy, I don't understand it. Is there a reason why I am so senstive? I can understand when I go into the crystal shop which yes is very small and crowded with crystals, but what about when I enter a friends house or talk to someone, is it trying to tell me to get out/walkaway or is it just the energies, not a warning?? Is thisthe preception that Ros mentioned. As MIkeJb mentioned it does actually blow me mind, to the point where I feel dizzy, and immense pressure.
I am suppose to ask for protection 3 times?
Kachina how long do I do this for and again do I ask for protection 3 times???
Thank you so much as you can see this is all new.

Purple,
When you first start asking for protection you may need to go through a little ritual, like asking 3 times or taking a few minutes to protect yourself. As your light quotient builds up you will find that you can protect yourself instantly just by visualising a bubble or whatever shield you prefer.
When I travelled into London on the train and tube I had to spend about 20 minutes each morning Grounding and Centering, building up my light and creating a protective bubble, I also wore Amethyst or Black Tourmaline as further protection. This lasted for about a month, by which time I found I could switch it on at will.
Here is my morning meditation, feel free to adapt it as you feel :
Place your feet flat on the floor, relax your shoulders and take a deep breath, letting it go slowly.
Let your mind travel to your feet, see roots growing from the soles of your feet, travelling deep into Mother Earth, wrapping themselves around the Great Crystal.
Gently bring your thoughts to your Base Chakra. See a thick cord extent from your Base Chakra, see it pass through your Earth Star down into Mother Earth. This is your Grounding Cord, see it travel to the centre of Mother Earth where it wraps around a ball of pure Golden Energy. With each breath you draw this energy up your Grounding Cord. Filling first your Base Chakra then each of your lower chakras in turn with Golden Light, dissolving any negativity and blockages; energising and cleansing. Feel it in your Sacral Chakra, your Solar Plexus chakra and then your Heart Chakra.
When this golden energy has filled your Heart Chakra it stops rising.
Reach up with your mind now to the Central Sun – the Source. Here you see a giant ball of pure white energy. Pluck a strand of this energy and bring it down to your Soul Star, see this energy fill your Soul Star, dissolving any negativity and blockages; energising and cleansing, follow this energy as it travels down to your Crown Chakra, your Third Eye, your Throat, filling each in turn with pure white energy. As this energy reaches your Heart centre it blends with the energy of Mother Earth. Feel this ball of beautiful Golden White energy expand through your physical body then your Aura, dissolving any negativity and blockages, filling you Body and Soul with Golden White Light.
Your are Grounded with Mother Earth and Centred with Source.
Take a moment now to send blessing to the Angels who look after the hospitals, schools, universities, governments and corporations around the world. Add your own blessings if you wish.
When you have finished, gently draw your energies back; with each inward breath you feel yourself coming back, your Aura returning to its normal size.
Blessings upon you.
I used these these to build up my light quotient - you can really feel yourbody filling with light.
Kuthumi's Light Mantra (can be repeated as often as you wish) and The Great Invocation ( said 3 times ):
I AM LIGHT, glowing LIGHT
Radiating LIGHT, intensified LIGHT.
God consumes my darkness
Transmuting it into LIGHT.
This day I AM a focus of the Central Sun.
Flowing through me is a crystal river

Answers:
Purple don't worry. It is perfectly normal to feel this way when faced with lots of crystal energy. all it means is that you are becoming more aware and sensitive to their energies :)
Carry some really good grounding stones like Hematite and Black Tourmaline or Obsidian. And if you are at a show frequently rinse andslussh your hands under cold running water, this will earth and ground you more effectively than any chant or prayer or visualisation. It is a physical earthing of the energies you havecollected.
You have to remember, or re-learn, how to let the energies flow over and through you, rather than them stopping and building up inside you, there are many ways that you will find to do this. I feel the energies wash over me like standing in a crystal waterfall, or if I am in need of them or want them more close I draw the energy up from my hands and inside me then let any excess wash out through my feet to the earth.
Until you feel happier with large amounts of energies and crystals, take little and often, go outside for a breather, the shopkeeper, stand owner won't think you daft or crazy, its whats needed at this time :)

Hi
Mike - I tried your mediaition this morning with your words and did seem to feel better, there was a lot of negativity around me this morning but after doing this I felt refreshed and motiviated.
Gypsee - I had looked at your website and it is truly wonderful, thank you. I do speak to my angels alot and I'm not sure they hear me all the time but perhaps this is another sign from them, but I will just have to decipher what it is. thank you.
Gem - How do i let the crystals energies flow thro me rather than stopping them, this to me makes sense but I am not sure what I am doing to cause the blockage.
I bought a gold sheen obsidan the day I was in the shop and wore it around my neck and boy did it bring up some weird thoughts, Iwore it for two days and haven't felt the need to wear it again, but I am sure I will.
Well thanks again for taking your time to help me

Hi Purple,
Great question, and some really good and interesting advice - and I'm sure you'll find the best way for you of protecting yourself. The Reiki one sounds good.
I've been doing a bit of studying on somatic trauma therapy lately, and a couple of tips from that have been quite useful - one is tightening and easing off slowly your muscles in the lower leg - sounds weird, but it does work, and one way to do it is to go up on yout tiptoes and down again two or three times quite slowly. it's a grounding exercise, and there are more, including consciously stamping or moving your feet about, getting in touch with the earth underneath.
Most of my therapywork is massage, and I sometimes get a bit bombarded by stuff from others - and I take a moment just to remind myself about the bubble around myself, which I renew every morning, and take a deep breath into the solar plexus.
As I said before,I think you are feeling this as you become moresensitive to the energies around us, whatever we each know them as - andI think it's really exciting - magic!(in the broadest sense of the word)
Final thought - I'm sure our aromatherapist friends know more - but there are essential oils which will help too, I think. I have just starting using White Angelica, which is a blend by Young Living, which is put together to help keep the auric field more intact, amongst other things. it seems to work well, but so does visualising an egg or bubble, which are much cheaper options.
What do others think

Answers:
Ros,
I've had a quick look at White Angelica (sounds interesting as I make a spray to protect the aura) but its a bit pricey - when I win the lottery I will give it a go :D
I havn't heard of somatic trauma therapy, can you suggest some good reference sites.
Answers:
So sorry Purple I've only just been able to come back to this thread...
the 'exercise' can be done as little or as often as you wish...and no there is no need to do it '3 times' unless you of course feel the need for it :)
Many blessings
Answers:
Hi Mike,
yeah, the White Angelica is expensive, but it is excellent quality oil, and you get a reasonable sized bottle for the price, I think 15 ml, but don't quote me, and a little goes a long way. (I do a bit of teaching, and I was needing some extra help with my auric field, after a weekend doign bits ofmassage on a number of different students - a lot of energy flies about the room during the practical sessions!)
Somatic trauma therapy - it's a kind of meld between body work and counselling, very powerful when working with trauma, and post traumatic stress and takes its roots in Body Psychotherapy, I think. Babette Rothschild is a fairly well known proponent of it - she has her own website, and if you google her name, you'll get a lot of articles. it's relaly interesting stuff, and although the theory is a bit head mincing, it does make a lot of sense to body workers. interestingly, I think Babette Rothschild has recently published a book about protecting the healer - which I haven't read. She tends to be quite academic, but she actually talks the talk with a lot of common sense in the flesh.
Loved your post about your crystals going off into the sunset - that's exactly it - but then I guess we are only custodians or compainions for a time!
