Several hundreds of books
have been written about the Continent of Atlantis
and from these we learn how a race of highly skilled
individuals developed. Agriculture, engineering and
astronomy were some of their skills, but they were
particularly gifted in the healing arts. The ancient
mythological Continent of Atlantis is believed to
have been located in the Atlantic Ocean. Legend tells
us that Atlantis existed and flourished from 150,000
BC until 10,000 BC when it was destroyed by a series
of giant tidal waves. Some modern archaeologists believe
America to be the new Atlantis because recent archaeological
research shows that there is some evidence that Atlantis
did exist near Florida.
The Atlanteans developed homoeopathic remedies, flower
essences and were particularly famous for their ability
to make use of the energies inherent in crystals.
They used them to extract these energies to light
their cities and in numerous ways, similar to our
use of electricity today. They were particularly gifted
in understanding and applying the healing power of
crystals. ‘Atlanteans recognised that the source
of the disease lay not in the physical, but rather
in the higher bodies. Therefore, they always first
cured the auric body, not the physical. Once the subtle
bodies had been healed, the physical body’s
healing would follow automatically’.
How do crystals heal?
In order to understand how crystals are effective
in therapy, we need to remember that:
- the human body is made up of energy fields (subtle
bodies) and energy centres (chakras). The physical
body (although made up of energy) appears solid
to us while the aura and the outer bodies are light
and fluid.
- crystals emit different vibrations which affect
the energy flow. Diagram 1 shows the generally accepted
energy fields that surround the human body.
- These electro-magnetic fields encircling the
body are referred to as the human aura. With the
help of Kirlian photography it is now possible for
everyone to "see" the human aura in all
its glorious colours.
- The concept of the chakra system in the human
energy field has its origins in Hindu teaching,
where there has always been great awareness of the
energy centres in the human form. There are seven
major chakras (energy centres). Each chakra has
a direct effect on specific glands and functions
in the physical body. Diagram 2 shows the position
of the major chakras.
- ‘Chakras can be thought of as dynamos, i.e.
dynamic centres through which energy is distributed,
with the capacity for transmission as well as for
reception’.2 Each chakra has its own vibrational
rate and colour which has an effect upon the physical
body as well as the aura. The brightness or dimness
of the aura is indicative of the state of well being
within the individual.
Depression treated with Crystals
Crystal therapy documentation indicates that clients,
having suffered from miscellaneous kinds of depression
have been successfully treated by Crystal therapists.
In these particular cases the condition had been caused
by damage to the aura. Following up on these case
histories, the aura imbalances often originated when
the client had received one of the following treatments,
i.e. chemotherapy; experienced a traumatic child birth
(post natal depression); had been given anaesthetic
during an operation, etc. All of these treatments
have a damaging effect on the aura. In fact, any kind
of traumatic event in one’s life affects the
delicate balance of our personal energy field. If
left untreated this condition could take a long time
to heal and could well result in severe depression,
lack of vitality, inability to deal with everyday
living and low self esteem. In these particular cases
crystal therapy has shown to be very effective. If
one remembers that crystal therapy deals with energy,
it follows that crystal therapy is the perfect healing
tool to redress energy imbalances in one’s energy
field.
Crystals in Industry
The vibrations crystals emit have a very definite
effect on energy flow. This is very apparent by the
current extensive use of crystals in industry. When
quartz crystals are stimulated with electricity their
oscillations become perfectly regular. Not only does
this make them an ideal product for the watch and
computer industry, but also for many other industrial
purposes. To give but a simple example, most of us
may remember our parents or grandparents referring
to their radios as ‘crystal sets’. The
simple reason for this was that the quartz crystal
was one of the major components of these early ‘receiving
sets’.
Being aware of the energy effects of crystals, it
is understandable why quartz crystals, which are the
main crystals used in industry, are in ever increasing
demand. An example of this is space rockets, where
quartz parts must meet exact requirements, as is the
case in many other industries. This is the main reason
why today artificial quartz crystals are man-made
to fulfil these specific demands. However, it needs
to be emphasised here that when working with crystals
for healing purposes, only naturally grown crystals
are suitable.
