yes, I agree that the stones seek us when we are ready to learn
which I am, and seem to be on an "accelerated program" right now. LOL
Here is my recap of last nights experience with the Green Chrysoprase. I wouldn't say anything too 'exciting' or unusual happened...but it was a lovely time nonetheless and I feel like deeper work was done on my behalf that I probably am not aware of as yet.
I did about 20 minutes of restorative/meditation opening yoga (gotta love Rodney Yee!) and then went directly into meditation with the crystal for another 20 minutes or so with a nag champa candle burning and a music only chakra meditation piece playing in the background.
First, the crystal seemed to give me better physical alignment. so much so that it felt like I was bending backwards, when in actuality I was sitting perfectly straight in seated half lotus. Then I felt the need to lie down, so I took corpse pose and lay the stone on my heart chakra. After awhile I lay on my stomach and placed the crystal on my right hip where it connects to the pelvic bone because I have been having great trouble and pain in this area for months. I didn't feel anything specific from all of this, just a general sense of calmness and gentle healing.
During all of this, several times I experienced great flashes of light (like a ton of camera flashes going off at once) even though my eyes were closed. I also twice had my ears pop like due to the air pressure change in an airplane.
I slept with the stone under my pillow, but left it in its protective baggy because it seems very fragile. I don't remember having any particular dreams, etc, but did feel rested and like a slept deeply, even though I was awoken very early. Normally that in itself would have upset me as I only had about 5 hours of sleep, but I was awoken by a text from a friend I have not spoken to for several months and not seen in over a year whose text said "just thinking of you today Sis". I have been thinking of her too, and texted (funny how that has become a verb now) her back and learned also that she had her baby on the 10th, a full three weeks early.
After I awoke for real and got out of bed, I wrote down my experiences in my crystal healing journal and I put the crystal away after thanking it for all it had done for my benefit and told it how pretty it is.
(I find I am talking to all my stones like this A LOT)
Next, I wrote in my regular daily journal and while doing so had a total revelation about a vision I had many years ago that was brought to mind yesterday while doing the first lesson in the crystal course I just signed up for. I still have things to be revealed to me about this, but do know that the crystals will do so in good time. I have also been thinking about an interaction I had with Archangel Michael last year in meditation (I rarely speak to the Archangels so this was an unusual interaction in itself) about an issue with my auric field in which he told me he could remove the problem but that alone would not heal me and I was better off to deal with the problem from a deeper perspective before asking his intervention. I remember at the time being a bit peeved with him, like 'why can't you just heal it and be done', but I believe the crystal healing work will help me to do what he was suggesting and that I will find so much more in that process than if I had left it up to something outside of myself.
So, all in all, I would say my experience with this stone was extremely gentle and somewhat "mysterious" in the sense that other things will likely be revealed to me in good time. I do feel it heals gently and may work best in physical healing when paired with another stone. And I definitely feel that it lives up to its "reputation" as a relationship stone and a doorway to connection with Divine Light.
