Guest guest Posted August 25, 2001 Report Share Posted August 25, 2001 I have a question somewhat along these lines as well. What if the crystal itself is man made?? Are the properties still the same? Would the crystal still hold the same knowledge as one who was formed by the Earth?? This is something that I am uncertain about and I would appreciate others thoughts on this. Thank you!

Here is a repost of file 9 from our files section there also have been other posts on this subject which are in the archives Peggy Simulated stones, artificial stone, plastic and " enhanced " stones Do simulated gems have the same properties and healing as a genuine stone? There is still a lot of controversy about this question Simulated, completely artificial imitations of glass or plastic do not generally have the same properties as natural stones though some items can be programmed to hold a charge for a while ( not very long in my experience). In an emergency an imitation bead can be used to channel a frequency of the genuine stone but it does not hold long usually unless frequently recharged /invoked and IMO is best reserved for an emergency measure . Plastics and fabrics and other man made objects can absorb /. remember the energies /stories of the events and places they " witness " so the stuff someone had with them when they went to a sacred place like Stonehenge might possibly be used to connect with the energy of that place and can offer information to those who have psychometric abilities. Artificial Ivory and plant Ivory can channel genuine Ivory energy frequencies This is " by arrangement " This can also be true for imitation corals and non animal substitutions for things like bear claws . We would recommend that you work with Deva and shakti (spiritual energy frequencies ) rather than use an animal product, if one those few occasions arose when one of those particular frequencies /qualities is essential . If you do use real coral, shells or bones , antlers etc. I would recommend that you specifically thank the spirit of the being/s that has or may have given it's life gift with some form of ritual or prayer or simple gratitude according to your beliefs and practices In imitation stones made with some genuine material the genuine material usually does retain its properties and can be enhanced with energy work to work normally. Some plastics /polymers can hold a lot of angelic light if you work with angels. Those fiber optic spheres that you see around can hold / transmit spiritual energies Particularly Angel (I want to say wind spirit or some elemental). As for man made synthetic crystals such as rubies which are chemically genuine my actual experience is limited but has been that they can work for many purposes but They don't have the stories they don't have the experience of time and existence that natural Earth grown stones have. They can become " connected to the grid " You often will need to charge them or dedicate them and invite. invoke. request of Spirit that they work for you . When this is done certainly the clear quartz wands of man made quartz can ,after being " awakened " be very effective . ~ The (angels -Spirit) have given you the gift that the star sapphires and rubies and rare stones you have learned to make from their own component elements will carry that light and mana (power) of those born of nature in order that many can know their ( songs)~ When you read the books you will find a lot of contradictions and controversy on this issue. If you encounter a simulated /manmade stone explore it with your intuition the Universe Has far fewer limitations and petty rules than we often assume it does . What will work for you and what is right for you in this matter will vary from person to person and from time to time and may change . If you feel uncomfortable with manmade stones, don't use them. If they sing for you then use them and do not be concerned with people who might scold you. I would probably not use a synthetic in a treatment with someone who is hostile to the idea . It will be your intuition and experience that count here . I use natural stones for the most part and there is enough variety to choose from that one seldom is limited to using a synthetic. A related matter is natural stones that are modified dyed. " enhanced " , irradiated or other wise treated or changed from the natural state . Some Crystal authorities reject any stone that has been modified . Others use them enthusiastically . My experience Has been that some of the stones are quite happy with it Dyed agate slabs from Brazil sometimes are dedicated to carrying the healing frequency of the Color stabilizing it and projecting it into a room or other area but some are not in balance with it and their energy feels jangled or rough. Howlite dyed to look like Turquoise or Lapis will allow it self to transmit those stones energy if there is need and no other option but may prefer to be used as howlite . Howlite works for many of the same issues that the stones it is dyed to look like are used for so it may not make a difference that matters. Many of the Stones that are irradiated or heated like Smoky Quartz and Citrine created from amethyst start out with jangled imbalances unhappy energy In which case I treat the crystal itself restoring and healing it to its ideal state most of the citrine and smoky quartz will work in the usual way after that And stones that have had their color deepened will also have normal energies after being " healed " This is also true of most stones with chipped faces the energy can be restored . My experience with the Aqua Aura quartz and other crystals that have had a molecular layer of another material applied or whatever they do to them is that most of them were not happy. I do not have much personal experience with them though So it may be just be that I have had no " call " to use them. So have not met the happy ones. ( I've known crystal healers who use them enthusiastically and say that the ones they have are in harmony with it) The ones I have encountered myself since I began seriously working with crystals belonged to other people and were not happy and after I treated them to restore them to harmony several have disappeared . I presumed they had gone to Earth to Heal but they may also simply have gone to someone who needed them as crystals often will when they have done the work they have with a specific person .. I rarely find a stone that is so burned out or abused that it has to return to Earth by being buried but Some of the enhanced stones have been among the few . This may have to do with the really heavy duty location and people they had been dealing with because the ones that were buried were brought to me after having been kept in a treatment center that included Juvenile sex offenders, rather than a problem with the enhancement of the stones ..
