Identify Your Stone Allies: How-To Exercise

Identify Your Stone Allies: How-To Exercise
5 comments

Adapted from Shamanic Experience, by Kenneth Meadows (Inner Traditions, 2003).

Everything around us may be considered a “reflector” of some kind. Even people we meet, whether we like them or not, are in some way “mirrors” of our own selves. The reason we don’t recognize them as such is that we don’t see those faults or qualities within ourselves.

Crystals are particularly powerful reflectors for they are light-bearers. They receive, store, and transmit light. The way they can help us most is by enabling us to discover our inner “light” that connects us with the Light that is the source-center of All That Is. So crystals are primarily allies for self-transformation.

Learn here how to identify a stone ally:

To find out why a particular stone has come to you, hold it in your left hand and lie down in your indoor power spot. Close your eyes and hold the stone to your navel. This is the center of your energy-system and where you are able to establish contact with anything in existence. Then, mentally ask the stone why it has come to you.

Although a stone’s “awareness” is entirely different from ours, it is possible to communicate telepathically. Images in the form of shapes or colors may come into your mind, or a mental picture may form.

You may have a visionary experience which may seem like a dream. Such an experience, though, may not happen right away, so you may need to persist with this exercise over a period of time.

The secret is not to “try.” You merely relax and don’t do anything. It is like looking at a blank television screen immediately after switching on and waiting for a picture to appear.

Good idea. I have a few stones that I've been wondering about. I'll try the meditation with them. :)

Perhaps the stone is not for you, or not at this time. I've noticed that stones think more slowly than we usually do, except in emergencies. You have to be willing to slow down to their pace to get the fullness of their consciousness and their message for you, if they have one, and they almost always do if you listen deeply and slowly enough.

As the article suggests, just hold the stone, pay attention for what the stone feels like, touching your skin, notice any thoughts that cross your mind. Practice, don't force, the ability will develop, there has to be faith first.
