Prepare to Program a crystal

Before you program the crystal is to purify the crystal. There are several ways to do this.

• Light some sage or incense and hold the crystal in the smoke which will cleanse away any previous programming or negative energy.
• Place the crystal in sea salt or salt water over night
• Place your crystal in a stream of running water where it won’t be washed downstream and lost. Take care to place it where someone won’t find it and that you will remember where it was placed.

Ask you angels or guides to clear away all energies in the crystal so that it is open and ready to receive a new program. Ask that it be blessed that it become a tool for the greater good of all and that it only work in the highest of energy vibrations.

How to Program a crystal:

1. Contemplate what you want the crystal to do. Envision that in your mind’s eye.
2. Hold the crystal in the hand you do not write with (receptive hand). Lay your other hand (projective hand) on top.
3. Breath in very deeply through your nose pulling air into the very bottom of your lungs till they are totally filled up.
4. As you take this first, clean, fresh air from the universe, see it in your mind’s eye, going into your lungs and into your blood and right down to the cells. Purifying your body and energizing it.
5. Pause for a count of 5
6. Exhale slowly through the mouth, expelling all of the air from your lungs and onto your hands.
7. As you are exhaling, envision this breath as energy flowing from your chest/ heart chakra and up and into your projective arm down towards the crystal…
8. See your energy flow from your projective hand and into the crystal. See your desire for this crystal making a connection with the crystal.. you may see little sparkles from the crystal as if thinks are shifting to accept the new program.
9. Exhale totally till your lungs feel like a vacuum.
10. Now inhale deeply and pull your energy through the crystal combined with some of the crystal energy.
11. Pull this energy down through your receptive hand.
12. Envision your energy blending with the crystal energy in your body.
13. Pull that energy as you inhale deeply like the first time, through the nose into your heart chakra.
14. Hold 5 seconds
15. Repeat the entire process until you can feel the spiritual connection between you and the crystal. Now your crystal is programmed and attuned to your energy.
16. You are done when it feels right.
17. Thank your angels and guides for the help.
