Crystals for Hope

Hope

Sometimes in life things can get a little dark. It can often be hard to see the light shining through the clouds. It can also be difficult to see that things will get better if you just give them time. But time seems infinite and you begin to wonder if it really does heal all things. There’s an old Chinese proverb that says, “A journey of a thousand miles begins with one small step.” That one small step can begin with just a little hope. When you need to see the sun through the rain and find a little more hope in your life, crystals can help.

When looking for some more hope in your life, we suggest using white colored crystals. White is the color of contradictions and opposites. It is the color of freedom and the color of hope. The white crystals are of the spiritual world that is sensed but not seen. White crystals are guides when we don’t know where we are going. They are the guides to understanding and knowledge that we don’t even know exists.

White Crystals Bring You the Power of the Illumination and Nature’s Cycles

In today’s modern world, white is the color of cleanliness, purity, unity, and innocence. But these are fairly modern meanings and by no means universal. The timeless, natural powers of white rays are those of the moon. White is the color we see when the moon reflects the sun’s light to us. White is the color of natural cycles. It is the color of beginning and endings. White is the color of the feminine gender, manifested as the Goddess in many cultures, and, as such, the color of the world of birth, and regeneration. It is a cool color of the night, the sleeping world, and it offers us the best guide to the hidden world beyond understanding, just as the moon is our only illumination in the dark world of night.

For regaining the white light of hope through the dark of the storm we recommend Candle Quartz. Clear Candle Quartz is electric, and a crystal of the power of the Sun. It reflects the colors, like a prism sometimes, has an inner glow of positive energy, and is a manifestation of light and hope. It focuses on inner negativity and stimulates positive thoughts and feelings in its place. With a better perception of the world, it increases awareness and clarity in thinking, and provides enhanced energy, perseverance and patience, teaching one to live, laugh and love with all of humanity.

Another crystal that can offer some sun light through the night is Girasol Aura Stone. For ongoing personal energy, carry a Girasol-like Quartz as a tumble stone or touchstone as needed for an instant lift. It has been used to help one through times of difficult change. It is also used to enhance intimacy. Just like all white crystals, Girasol Aura Stone brings you metal energy which is the energy of hope and cleanliness.

Candle Quartz is a Seeker Transformer Crystal. What kind of energy does it have? A quite strange type actually. It is a mediation crystal, but only for very specialized efforts involving a need to see into a dark corner of your inner self, where you have very carefully hidden an evil or harmful though, idea, or plan.

Girasol Aura Stone is a Seeker Transformer Crystal. Seeker Transformers are talismans used when the desire is to find a way to transform a part of one’s life to a more desirable state. When they possess the Earth Power of the Transformer they form crystals that are excellent for seeking new capabilities that will transform some part of our life.

Judy Hall recommends blue Quartz, sometimes called Asbestos Quartz is often used to increase mental acuity and allow one’s attention to be focused. It is reported to aid in spiritual development, facilitate contact with spirit guides and angels, and understand your dreams.

Michael Gienger recommends Garnet which is a stone that helps us seek balance and flexibility.

Garnet helps situations with no way out. It is the classic stone of crisis, whenever our world view collapses or general life circumstances become extremely difficult. Garnet also helps us cope with and surmount everyday problems in extreme situations.

Phillip Permutt recommends Boulder Opal .It is a traditional healing crystal that is used to strengthen the will to live and enjoy life. It is used to ease the pain of childbirth. It is an augmenting crystal that helps direct the energies of others. Some have used it for clearing the base and sacral chakras. It promotes relaxations and has been used to cure headaches.

When the days are dark and the nights seem long, a little light of hope can help carry you through. Sometimes hope is a little harder to obtain when it seems like there is no way out. There is a way out though and white crystals can help you find it. When you need a little more hope in your life we suggest such crystals as Candle Quartz and Girasol Aura Stone. You can also try crystals other authors recommend such as Blue Quartz, Garnet, and Boulder Opal.
