Description
This is a black tourmaline Mala with powerful protective properties. It combines two crystals which complement one another perfectly.
BLACK TOURMALINE
In the digital world we are increasingly and invisibly bombarded by negative influences.
Many crystals are protective and work well for subtle negative forces around us. However, many aspects of life have a darker side despite humanity’s apparent gentrification. Behaviours such as digital ghosting can have unforeseen consequences. “Ill-wishing” seems to have taken upon itself a degree of acceptability, in the absence of face-to-face accountability for one’s words.
Our need for willingness to understand ourselves and others has never been greater. This gemstone which also promotes self-confidence and diminishes fear is invaluable for creating the presence of compassion and tolerance.
Black Tourmaline can be used to block, repel, and protect against negativity. It creates a protective energetic shield, helping to keep your personal energetic boundaries strong. It also protects physical spaces like your home or workspace. Black tourmaline is excellent for deflecting radiation energy. Furthermore, it enhances ones physical well being by providing an increase in physical vitality, emotional stability, and intellectual acuity. https://www.charmsoflight.com/tourmaline-healing-properties
Judy Hall (author of The Crystal Bible) puts it in even stronger terms: “Black tourmaline turns back ill-wishing and protects agains psychic mugging, electromagnetic and geopathic stress, or negative energy of any kind.”
SMOKEY QUARTZ
Despite our best efforts of avoiding negative influences, they can insidiously have an effect on us. It is a good idea to have a subtle cleansing system in place.
“Smokey quartz gently neutralises negative vibrations and is detoxifying on all levels, prompting elimination of the digestive system and protecting against radiation and electromagnetic smog. Smokey Quartz disperses fear, lifts depression and negativity. It brings emotional calmness, relieving stress and anxiety.” https://www.charmsoflight.com/smokey-quartz-healing-properties
Spacers
For added effect this black tourmaline mala has spacers which keep the wearer grounded. Hematite in itself is protective as it grounds the soul into the body, especially during out of body experiences. Furthermore, it prevents negative energies from entering the aura.
CRYSTAL CARE – Cleansing, charging & programming
All crystals are energetically different but the principles are the same for all of them.
CLEANSING
Energies build up within the gem stones, even if they have been stationary. Cleansing releases this build-up, and restores their true vibrational frequency.
Crystals can be held under running water, or immersed in salt water (as long as they are not water soluble like Selenite, or sensitive structurally like Hematite). You can smudge them, pass them through the light from a candle, or expose them to certain crystals which have the ability to cleanse other ones, such as Carnelian. Some are self-cleansing, such as Citrine.
CHARGING
This is the energetic renewal stage. It is where you set your intentions and work in unison with the stone toward a common purpose. It aligns the gem stone’s metaphysical properties with your vibrations and frequencies.
The most convenient option is leaving the crystal in sunlight for 1-2 hours, or moonlight overnight (use another method if your crystal is photosensitive). Sound vibrations from singing bowls, gongs or simply your voice can also reset the energy of the crystal without making changes to it structurally – it simply returns to its vibrational state.
PROGRAMMING – optional
Let your higher guidance dedicate the crystal to the purpose for which you wish to use it.
Simply hold the stone in your hands in front of a light source, and say out loud: “I dedicate this crystal to the Highest of Good.” Then attune it: “I program this crystal for [your purpose].”
