Crystal Elixers and Gem Essences

Crystal and Gem Elixirs are special waters that are attuned with a gemstone’s specific frequencies and vibrations. In this way, the properties of a stones can then be taken internally and applied to the body. Use of gem elixirs has been used for millions of years and in several ancient civilizations as a way of healing the mind, body, and soul.
The use of crystals and gemstones has been used as a form of healing and changing consciousness. As with flower essences they can be made using the sun method. Simply put, after cleansing the stone energetically, place in a bowl of pure water and left out in sunlight  for a minimum of two hours and sometimes for several days.
After exposure to the sun  the mineral is removed the water is strained, if necessary and alcohol is added as a preservative of the energy. The resulting liquid is placed under a geometric structure to further amplify and preserve it.
When the elixirs are being made  the sunlight passes through a field of stimulated xenon gas before reaching the water. This helps to remove energetic properties within the sunlight that are not life enhancing. Seven drops from the resulting mixture is then placed in one-ounce bottles with the remainder being a mixture of 16% alcohol and water.
elixirs integrate and act as an interface between the anatomical and etheric levels of the body. Through physical laws dealing with sympathetic resonance and vibration gem elixirs can have a profound impact on the physical, emotional and spiritual health of humans, animals and plants. Disease usually settles in the subtle bodies, especially the etheric body before affecting the physical body. If the imbalance can be treated in the subtle bodies and the aura before the physical body is affected, then resolving the problem is much easier.
Each crystal balances a chakra according to a specific element within it. For example, rose quartz and Ruby balances the  heart chakra partly because they have certain mineral properties that have an empathetic resonance with that tissue. They act as a purifier of energy within that chakra ,activating the molecular structure into its proper pattern and frequency.
Before using your gem or crystal it should be cleansed in sea salt. Add the crystal to a  mason jar , perfume bottle or bottle with a roll on top. Add 3/4 full either Sunflower, jojoba oil, almond oil or safflower oil. These oils are good because they are light and not greasy.
Herbs may also be used when making an elixir. Lavender, chamomile, thyme, basil, orange peel, lemon rind, rose bud are all great choices depending on the use of the elixir.
Place mixture in the sun for 2 to 3 hours, after it has been exposed to the sun bring mixture back inside. At this point healers either charge the elixir with Reiki energy or they include their own spiritual ritual which includes intention, positive affirmations, smudging with sage, or attuning with sound.
When finished turn bottle over a few times before use to make sure the elixir has mixed all the ingredients thoroughly.
Stones which are mica or which  can flake, dyed, leach powder or that are porous should be avoided unless using a double boiler method. This is done by placing a glass bowl with no water within another bowl with water or oil. The sun will transfer the energy from the stone , into the water which is beneath it.
