I've been slightly out of commission in making the transition to a new computer and learning its features (still learning). Summer is a great time to give your crystals a bath and put them out in the sun. Consider, though, the following precautions. Soft crystals, like selenite, malachite, and azurite, shouldn't be soaked in water. Rub them with a damp cloth and clear them with smoke from a smudge stick. This also applies to angelite.

I'd like to welcome all new members to this group. I'd also like to hear from anyone who has had an experience in using crystals for healing of companion animals, whether that healing is physical or emotional.

One of the essence families I work with is Wild Earth Animal Essences. (For more information about how they're made and what they're for, please see http://www.rainbowcrystal.com/bach/animalessence.html)

One way to identify your power animal is to notice which animals show up frequently in your life. My family had a bear sighting (actually a chasing) when I was sixteen, and we were in Yellowstone National Park. After that, I often dreamt about bears but didn't see any in bodily form unt… Continue

I've added some new links to this page. If you are new to crystals and essences, they'll give you a good start.
