[Melissa M.]

Would like to hear others thoughts on crystal healing and how it works and if anyone is currently using it.

Hello Melissa,
I just joined good vibrations and found your post here.Since it is March of 2008 now, I may be a little late with a reply but here goes anyway.
I started getting interested in healing stones and crystals almost 2 years ago. I have a beautiful calico cat ( the one pictured in my profile). She is 12 years old and has cancer in her mammeries. Last year we couldn't pick her up without her crying, she slept all the time. She wouldn't let anyone touch her belly. She didn't drink much water either. It would take her about 2 days to drink a small bowl of water. About september of 2007, I put a quartz crystal in her bowl of drinking water and watched to see what she would do. She started drinking 2 - 3 bowls of water a day. About a month later I added another quartz crystal with a bit of amethyst in it. Sabby continued to drink 2-3 bowls of water and pushes the stones closer with her paw so she can lick the water right off the stones. At that time I also added a few tiny quartz crystals to the inside of her collar. She started sleeping less and becoming more and more playful. About 2 months ago I bought a peice od selenite. She loves the energy of the stone and rubs up against it. I always keep it on my desk and she climbs up on the chair to be near it. When I put it on the chair with her, she rolls over onto her four paws with her belly laying on the stone. A few night ago, I took the stone into my bedroom and forgot to bring it back out. The next day while I was at work, Sabby climbed up to my desk (something she's never done before) and was looking all over the desk. When I got home my husband told me that sabby was up on my desk looking for her stone. Sabby is more energetic and is as playfull as a kitten. We pick her up now and she doesn't cry with pain. a few weeks ago, she even rolled over for me to rub her belly. I also made quartz crystal water and add about a tablespoon to each bowl of water she drinks. There has to be something to crystal healing. I for one beleive in it.
Take care,
Diane

Hi, Diane,

I posted my notice about looking for articles on crystal healing with pets before reading your post. This is wonderful. Please let me know if you'd give me permission to put it in my newsletter.

Hello Connie,
Yes, by all means, you have my permission to put my post in your newsletter. It is exciting to know that we can help our pets feel better instead of just watching their condition deteriorate. The cat in your pic. is beautiful. Your pet?

This is so encouraging, I'm getting into crystals and I've had similar experiences as this with flower essences and animals. You know there is no placebo effect involved. -Seneca

[Connie]

Thank you so much, Diane. Yes, that's my cat, Duffy. Your cat is so beautiful.

That's our Sabrina (Sabby for short). She's 12 years old and the best cat we ever had. She thinks she's a human. LOL.

Hello Connie,
Update on Sabby's health
About a month ago Sabby rolled over for me to rub her belly. What a shock I got when I didn't feel any tumors. Then I realized there was no big black lump protuding . I was so excited and told my daughter to check it out. She found no evidence of the tumors either. My son told his girlfriend who is a vet tech. and she didn't beleive him.His girlfriend wanted to come and see for herself, but sice she lives about an hour and a half away and couldn't get away from the animal clinic because it was heartworm season and they were too busy, she had to wait. Well, my son went by train to toronto to visit his girlfriend this past weekend and she drove him home because she just had to see Sabby for herself. She stayed half an hour, just enough time to say hello to everyone and check Sabby out. After giving Sabby a good going over, she turned to me with a funny look on her face and said that this just doesn't happen. She couldn't believe it, there were no tumors. I think she's a believer in crystals now because before she left, she asked for crystals for her hedgehog who is loosing it's quills, and also for a dog from the clinic.
I'll still continue using stones with Sabby even though the tumors are gone. I don't want them to come back.
Just thought I'd share my good news with you and you have my permission to share it as well.
Wishing you Love, Luck, and Laughter,
Diane

Thanks so much, Diane. I'll add it to the article. All the best to Sabby. What a great cat.

Working with crystals and those connected with them amplify the healing effects of emotions, attitudes & as I have seen some real benifets in physical and therefore know it is done in the etheric bodies as well.... just as tuning forks work.... and as aromatherapy works.... = deal with the psyche, spirit & soul & the body comes around.... as well as the physical presence of the minerals.... wearing and in elixers.

This is documented in many books, several cultures....

I know this personally.... from my self as well as experiments and trials with people here.... BUT, there are some who are not ready / willing to face the issues buried in the tissues.... many just want to take a pill..... have instant results.....

Me, I'm still pretty dense low vibrationed compared to others.... limited in the seeing" department. Crushed skull, amnesia... been a long, SLOW road.... but headed in the right direction.... I need much more contact than most for physical healing... but have most definitely benifited from their presence. Check out my pictures to get an idea of my helping ""friends""..... the micro mounts are difficult for me to resonate with on a concious & physical level.... some will make me cry as I touch them & there are a few that I used to never feel anything from that make me laugh so deep & a happy true joyful laugh.... one brings in a gasp of air.... others make it much more bearable to be in large crowded areas....

Went to an A.R.E. psychic / intuition seminar..... killer headache!!!! had me sitting on the floor & in serious pain.... went out to the truck & loaded up & much, much better... went to see James ray.... couldn't take it.... was out laying in the grass / snow.... went out & loaded my pockets.... I had some on... but not enough!!!

I was at a mineral & rock show.... was drawn to a corner of the building.... found a crystal I'd have given my eye teeth for if I still had them.... knocked out at 28.... different wreck.... cop rear ended me there.... anyway.... next to it was some beauties... but they had me all fritzed... but I love going to rock & mineral shows!!! So many great energies,,,, had some purpurite... picked it up & buzzed real strong up the back of my hand & into the whole forarm & into part of my face.... really weird!... had some really deep, somber yet nurturing & pretty, happy ones.... .Hope someday to make Tuscon... & I am definitely NOT a desert fan... by any means!!!!!

After a seriouwreck ( one of many!!!), I had a burning 13+ year migraine & reiki & the use of crystals & stones and aromatherapy eliminated that... Anger issues... gone.... hate & violence.... gone.. everybody should have rhodonite!!!!! .... and tourmaline..... Had rage issues in the neck... AWFUL.... burned for almost 20 years....then a few years back started reik & buying crystals... took a while to address core issues.... was gone for a long time.... but rekindled through new source & difficulty dealing with it.... but mustering through.... as with my hips I broke 16 years ago.... never healed right.... but I wasn't letting them.... I had not resolved the situation that had allowed me to put myself in.... dependant on someone else... catering to their wishes ( allowing surrender of personal power / path to another... allowing situation to hold me back through love.... NOT my nature.... but done none the less....) had it cleared.... rocks in the bed, on me, under the bed, in place of a headboard.... everywhere & anywhere I was!!!! felt great too.... things got better attitude wise as well as in outlook....

... some major upsets / chalanges have resurfaced... trying to honor my husbands wishes & sacrifice my true self are challanging me again so issues in the hips have reflared some....

He chopped the last joint of his left thumb today.... not a penny saved... last 2 times they would not allow his workman's comp until we finally got a lawyer... & he always demanded he was man of the house & I was not to work.... we went through bankruptcy about 2 years ago after fighting it for about 4 years.... lost the truck, now 100 pounds over weight now from frustration & years of out of control emotions & sitting on my ass stuck on stupid at the kitchen table when he came home as he hates to be by himself more than a half hour at a time.... no job skills... I did concrete, roofing & rough-in construction before we married..... boy oh boy... didn't I do a great job of painting myself in a corner!!!! When I surrendered power I really surrendered.... ... oh yeah... been married 16 years now.... after I started doing reiki & started healing.... he was having horrible, horrible nightmares.... thrashing around... beat the stuffin' out of me a few times till I got him woke up.... & the more rocks I put in the bed.... the worse it got.... took a long time, but I made him start telling me what they were.... First it was bears chasing him.... which = subconcious... but he was stuck with memories of childhood when a bear was banging on the outhouse & when him & his brother decided to make a run for the house... their dad shot at the bear over their heads.... but he's old testament and not allowing for my "fru fru" / witchcraft / voo doo.... as he calls it.... The one that bothered him the longest.... was an ugly old woman chasing him with saurkraut & green weinies.... before he finished the word weinies... I turned to him & snapped " that's me you jack ass..... you have denied the love I have tried to give you for so long it's turned sour & rotten.... You see me as old and ugly and I have become such, long, long before my time.... don't worry... If the love I have to offer you is so nasty and I am so ugly to you that all my efforts are spoiled....." then peace came over me..... I told him" you are safe. I will not chase you again"

see... I couldn't figure out where so much hate was coming from or why.... and the more stones I kept putting under, in & around the bed the stronger his thrashing was... but I never knew he hated the german half of me.... and that he was that afriad to open to love... yeah I knew he was closed when we married.... and boy oh boy was that a battle for me!!!!!!! phhhewwwwey.... but we co-existed fairly decently.... ubtil the stones & silent prayers. and though I am 14 years younger than him.... he had subconciously seen the old woman I was feeling in me.... way older than calander years... ( at 38 I felt 83...) now at 48... it ranges somewhere between 45 to 55 most days... sometimes ( after grain or chores...65.... & here lately with a few other pieces filled in.... I have even had a few 30's again.... ( ha, ha...)

and I have gotten other of my missing pieces through his dreams.... he hasn't slept in the same bed with me now for a few years.... refuses... why he married me I never knew... hates the german in me, hates my herbs ( which he knew about...), oils, stones.... scared to be alone & I can't stand being around people very long & definitely NOT all the time!!!!! He likes loud noise & I want silence.... but by using the stones I can more easily cope & though not where I am supposed to be.... I am able to do just fine for now.... as long as I can keep the animals fed.... not willing to give up the mama & papa buffalo just yet... or cats & doge... they are the only physical love I have ever known other than my grandma & grandpa H. ; until I met Glenn & Nancy, Stella & a few other folks... I enjoy being around...but love does not live here on earth with me otherwise... so my main challange is to provide for the animals..... I am with all my "friends" / rocks & my spirit is back where it belongs so I am fine come what may otherwise.... out.... buzzy.... started getting the gentlest little shakes & totally disoriented..... wonderfull energy... but WWAAAYYYY ttttoooo much!!!!!

enough of my rattling .... I have journaled results from others here as well as books... but personally experiencing the energies of crystals & stones makes a big difference.... if someone would have told me what I just wrote 4 or 5 years ago I'd have called the "hill" in "oz" & told them to get the padded cell ready & grab a straight-jacket..... one must be willing to allow... & give ample opportunity sometimes.... but it will come through...

believe it or not....

I used to never....

Tara & Sara like the brazialin agates, Stinky when he used to come in loved the tourmalines, idocrase ( I have a large one), chrysocolla, & obsidians... when I did angel reikis or worked with crystals, he'd get all kinds of happy & he'd be looking all over the place... Lovey dovey goes for the shelf of zeolites every time.... can't keep her out of them.... others have their preferences... I move them around & sometimes it's funny to watch if they go hunt for & find them....
