Programming Crystals
Programming crystals refers to putting a certain energy or intention into the crystal that you can use at a later time to help you in your endeavor. It is defined in the book Love Is In The Earth as “the process of instructing the energies of the crystal in the method in which to use its qualities of transformation, stability, and attunement. (This precision in intent is beneficial training for those utilizing crystals. With the use of crystals, one may also become “crystal clear” in the use of personal energies).” This can be a very useful thing to do, as it helps ease our anxiety about a certain situation, be it an exam or a job interview. From Crystal Enlightenment (1985) we get this advice. “Hold the terminated point of a clear quartz up to the third eye center and visualize yourself as being calm, secure, confident, and spontaneously flowing with the situation. Project this thought form into the crystal and then sit quietly, holding the crystal, as you mentally reaffirm to yourself the positive reality you have created. This crystal can then be carried with you, to be held, looked at, or thought of during the event for which you have prepared. The crystal retains the programmed thought form and will emanate that vision back to you, acting as an assistant and friend.”
Crystals can be programmed for all kinds of different purposes. If you are going to give a crystal to a friend as a gift, you can program into it good thoughts and prayers for that person’s success, prosperity, and happiness. This impression will be programmed into the stone, which will emanate that energy for as long as it is with your friend. You can do the same type of programming into crystals and use them in the healing/purification of inanimate objects, such as a car, a new house, or work site.
In Love Is In The Earth by Melody, she gives another method of programming, which is as follows. “Formulate a precise phrase which accurately describes the nature of the programming (i.e. angelic/other-worldly communication, harmony, balance, love, special healing or protection for someone, etc.) Hold the crystal in the left hand (if left-handed, hold the crystal in the right hand), relax for several minutes, initiate circular breathing, and center the consciousness. Align the personal conscious awareness with the higher-self and/or other (pre-defined) appropriate other-worldly beings. Ask for guidance, protection, and assistance in the programming process. Open the center of consciousness and allow receptivity to flow through to the inner being. Repeat the formulated phrase 20-30 times in succession while visualizing and/or feeling the desired effect of the program. (Be open to higher assistance during this process.) As the phrase is repeated, an energy field will build and culminate in the energy pattern necessary to represent the desired program. While maintaining full awareness of the energy field, bring total awareness and consciousness to the area of the third-eye or the heart chakra and allow the self to feel the connection with it. Direct the energy field into the crystal for 30-60 seconds and allow the program to be transferred to within the crystal. Intuitive recognition will signal when the transmittal is complete. Detach consciousness from the crystal and allow the universal energies to act.”
