Guest guest Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 Pretty amazing, isn't it? I also felt I had lost my protection when my ruby disintegrated. I was pretty shaken for a day or two, but then I realized it was OK. I agree with you: the lesson here is about attachment to crystals and other energetic implements. Don't depend on them, and don't invest them with more power than they should really have. The other important lesson is: keep your rings & crystals away from the kitchen sink, LOL!

I couldn't stand the feeling, and I didn't know why I had it. Then I realized my crystal was gone. I was told it would hold my energy, and that I shouldn't let anyone touch it, because energy would leave me. Someone else told me that I should be extra careful with it, because if it broke, my energy would escape. > Needless to say, I was hysterical when I lost it. I had to learn to shut out that feeling of imbalance, and the dizzy sensation. I had to learn to create my own luck, and pray and meditate to receive energy, without a crystal. > After I found it, I was weaned of my need to have it, so I no longer wore it. > > It was a tough lesson to learn, but there was a reason why I was supposed to be without it.
