Crystal Energetic Properties: What Crystals Generate Energy?

Crystal Energetic Properties: What Crystals Generate Energy?

Crystal energetic properties, if you're reading this now, you're likely wanting to learn which crystals are energetic. If so, you're in the right place. Crystals have captivated our imagination for centuries, revered not only for their aesthetic appeal but also for their purported mystical and healing properties. Among the myriad claims associated with crystals, one intriguing aspect is their ability to generate energy. While scientific evidence supporting such assertions is limited, many enthusiasts believe in the energetic potential of certain crystals. In this article, we will explore the world of crystal energy generation, examining popular crystals thought to possess this mystical power. Quartz Crystals and Piezoelectricity Quartz crystals are at the forefront of discussions about crystal energy. One scientific phenomenon associated with quartz is piezoelectricity, a property that allows the crystal to generate an electric charge in response to mechanical stress. This characteristic has practical applications in technology, such as quartz crystals being used in watches for their precision. In the realm of metaphysics, proponents argue that the piezoelectric effect in quartz crystals translates into a subtle energy that can influence the human energy field, promoting balance and well-being. Whether you're carrying a quartz crystal in your pocket or wearing the crystal as jewelry, believers claim that its energy interacts positively with the body's own energy flow. Tourmaline and Far Infrared Radiation: Black Tourmaline is another crystal often associated with energy generation, particularly far infrared radiation. Far infrared rays are part of the electromagnetic spectrum and are believed to have various health benefits. Tourmaline is said to be able to emit these rays when subjected to pressure or temperature changes. According to crystal energy enthusiasts, the far infrared radiation emitted by tourmaline can penetrate the body, promoting circulation, reducing inflammation, and enhancing overall vitality. As with many claims related to crystal energy, scientific support for these assertions is limited, and skepticism persists in the scientific community. Amethyst and Spiritual Connection Amethyst, a violet variety of quartz, is renowned for its calming and spiritually uplifting properties. In the realm of crystal energy, amethyst is often considered a powerful tool for enhancing spiritual awareness and connection. Believers in crystal energy argue that amethyst's vibrational frequency resonates with the higher chakras, facilitating meditation, intuition, and spiritual growth. While the scientific basis for such claims remains elusive, many individuals report subjective experiences of heightened awareness and tranquility when working with amethyst crystals. A Few Recommendations There's a number of different ways to use crystals and their energetic properties. You may want to consider birthstone crystals, several birthstone crystals have energetic properties.  You can also start working on your crystal grid, this is a great exercise for those of you that may be new to the world of crystals. We also have a crystal quiz if you're struggling to find the "right" crystals for you. Be sure to also check out this resource: Crystal Meanings - this guide will explain what different crystals mean and represent, as well as why those crystals are unique. It's a great resource for any level. The realm of crystal energy is an intriguing convergence of science and mysticism, where adherents discover solace and empowerment in the purported energetic attributes of crystals. While scientific validation for these assertions is limited, the subjective experiences of individuals should not be dismissed. Whether you're drawn to quartz for its piezoelectric properties, tourmaline for its purported far infrared radiation, or amethyst for its spiritual connotations, the power of crystals to generate energy remains a subject of both curiosity and debate. As science delves into the intricate domains of energy and consciousness, the enigma that shrouds the power of crystals may someday find its niche in our expanding comprehension of the natural world. Yet, until that juncture, the captivating allure of crystals lingers, beckoning us to embark on a profound exploration of their mystical capabilities.

What Is Orgonite, How Does It Work, History And More

What Is Orgonite, How Does It Work, History And More

What Is Orgonite? Orgonite is made with natural resin, Quartz and metal such as Copper wire and/or metal shavings. Orgonite may also contain other crystals such as Black Tourmaline, Rose Quartz, Selenite, Amethyst and Citrine, just to name a few. To create Orgonite you need to layer the non-organic materials, such as Copper and metal, with the organic materials such as natural resin or wood. Orgonites have a deep rich history, but to understand everything you need to know about them, we have to go way back to where it all started. Orgone is known to be a pseudo scientific concept, referring to a form of energy that's known as a life force, Chi, Ki, Prana or universal energy. This esoteric energy or universal life force was discovered in the 1930s by Wilhelm Reich, a gifted and visionary scientist who fled from the Nazis to America. Wilhelm Reich (1897-1957) was a psychoanalyst who apprenticed under Sigmund Freud. He developed numerous theories around personality and the psychological and physiological origins of neuroses. In 1940, Wilhelm Reich constructed the first device to accumulate orgone energy: this was a six-sided box constructed of alternating layers of organic materials (to attract the energy) and metallic materials (to radiate the energy toward the center of the box). Patients would sit inside the accumulator and absorb orgone energy through their skin and lungs. The accumulator had a healthy effect on blood and body tissue by improving the flow of life-energy and by releasing energy-blocks. How Does Orgonites Work? Orgonites are believed to work in a variety of different ways, from crystal healing to energy storage. Orgone creations such as Orgonite devices or generators are known to store energy, this means that they can store energy universally. This type of energy is believed to nurture the soul and clear negative energy. It's believed that when you have low energy, when you can recharge that energy, it happens quicker than usual. Willhelm believed that orgone energies came from the purest expression of love such as orgasms which is where the word orgonite comes from. While orgone energy was initially discovered within the human body, Reich's observations and experiments revealed its existence in a free form within the atmosphere. He further uncovered that orgone energy permeates all space, making it ubiquitous. Reich stumbled upon the discovery of this "cosmic" energy unintentionally. He had no grand ambitions to revolutionize science or make a groundbreaking revelation. Rather, he meticulously observed and experimented day by day, documenting his findings and studying them without imposing any preconceived notions. What he unearthed was the presence of the same energy that flows during a sexual embrace in all aspects of nature, whether living or inanimate. He realized that this energy permeated every corner of the natural world, even the air itself. What is Orgone Energy? Willhelm Reich described ‘orgone’ as being a vital energy that could be demonstrated visually, thermically and electroscopically. He discovered that when non organic (metal) and organic material (usually wood or cotton) are mixed together in layers, this mixture would act as a magnet to orgone energy.  Reich created big boxes of these mixtures where he would place his patients to receive high amount of Orgone energy into their bodies. Reich patients were cured of different illnesses including high advanced stages of cancer. That created a conflict with the medical establishment and Reich was sent to prison where he died. Orgonites Growing Popularity Although Reich is long gone, his orgone discovery is not lost forever. In fact, in recent years, Reich’s orgone work is being rediscovered as a healing tool to help the body reach a state of harmony. People from all around the world began to make Orgone devices also known as ‘orgonite’. Orgonite devices such as pyramids are made of metal or polyester resin with gemstones and crystals inside the device to amplify and concentrate the Orgone energy. Orgone products are potent spiritual tools that have the potential to enhance various aspects of life: physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. They serve as conduits for universal energy, also referred to as Source Energy, Ether, and Zero Point Energy. This energy is the driving force behind all creation, with the remarkable ability to transmute lower vibrational (negative) energy into higher vibrational (positive) energy. Just holding an Orgone device or being near one, it's believed that negative energy will dissipate from your magnetic field, creating a higher, more balanced healthy state. Meditating and focusing your energies with an orgnite may be able to direct the positive energy towards personal healing, protection and spiritual awakening. Orgonite Healing There's a lot of mentions about orgonite and its ability to offer healing. Orgonite is believed to possess the ability to eliminate electromagnetic frequencies (EMFs), promote wellbeing, reduce stress, enhance sleep quality, cleanse negative energy, and facilitate meditation. The selection of Orgonite depends on your intended purpose. If you seek assistance with stress or sleep problems, Amethyst is an excellent option. For attracting wealth and abundance, Citrine Orgonites are highly recommended. For optimal EMF protection using Orgonites, we recommend Black Tourmaline or Shungite Orgonites. These options yield the best results. Additionally, remember that Quartz acts as an energy amplifier. Therefore, if you choose to use Orgonites filled with Quartz such as Clear Quartz, Citrine, or Amethyst, be aware that they may amplify the electromagnetic frequencies.

It doesn't matter if it's a classic pair of silver earrings or an intricate silver crystal necklace, sterling silver pieces have a simple yet sophisticated charm that many men and women find pleasing. Affordable Precious Metal At the time of this article, Gold is $1,985 an ounce on the spot market, silver is $22.70. That's quite the ratio.
