Question:
Hi guys,
Whilst in SA, I went to quite a few STUNNING crystal shops. I was drwan to 3/4 specifically. I am new to all this and was wondering: Do I need to clense them? If so? How do I do it? Whats the best way? Is it bad to have toooo many crytals around you? Do they kind of conflict eachother?? I also bought a crytal pendant to wear around my neck. Is is bad to let other people touch it?? Does there energy go on to it if they do that?? Anything else I need to know??
Looking forward to all your answers which I know will be filled with a wealth of wisdom! :)
Much Love

I'm envious you've been to SA & seen all those crystal shops.
-In regard to cleansing- personally I cleanse mine fairly regularly. Usually I just place them under running water while imagining them being cleansed. I might also charge them to help me with a specific task. Sometimes I put a dish of crystals out in the Full Moon. I know others place crystals in earth, or on an Amethyst bed, or near some Citrine or Clear Quartz. So there are lots of different ways - do what feels natural.
-I have read that wearing too many crystals can produce "conflict" but I've never felt it myself. I will often carry a chakra set on me of 7 crystals. But I do specifically "tell" the crystals what I need their help for, so I ensure they are working on different areas.
-Finally, about letting anyone touch your crystals/pendant - again it's what you feel comfortable with. There are certain ones I have & wear that I wouldn't have a problem with anyone touching, but my Moonstone that I keep with my main Tarot deck - well, I wouldn't want anyone touching that since it has built up a special relationship with the deck. But again this is all instinctive & other people might tell you different.
When I first started I was a bit overwhelmed by what I should/shouldn't do in regard to crystals, but now I just go with my feelings & instincts & I find it's all much clearer to me!!!

OH! You lucky girl :D, I believe that some crytals can cancel each other out, like contraindications, but yiy would need someone more knowkledgeable like Stomdeva or Sol to tell you which. The book "The crystal Bible" is brillient. Cant remember the lady who wrote it. i'll find out later and post it.
Now cos i'm courious or nosey you decide;). What crystals did you buy:D. You realise now you started it very hard to stop.[8D]:D

Hi MM,
In contrast to many others, I don't cleanse my crystals and minerals as a general rule - because I see it as an unnecessary practice. The only time I would (& have on occasion) cleanse one - is where I know someone has touched or looked at one with an "attitude that I don't care for"... Then and only then will I simply place it on an Amethyst bed. IMHO, no crystals conflict with eachother. The crystal pendant you have bought - will build up a 'sympathetic rapport' with you - a lot stronger by you're not allowing others to touch it. But having said that - thought is the key - and if others see it and think about it - then it can be affected by those thoughts of the other people... The whole subject is about energy - and especially thought energy.
