This clearing process is enhanced if you do it during the waning period of the moon because, as the moon wanes, it is the best time to release and clear things which no longer serve your highest and greatest good. Though, I have to say, I myself, would do it at the full moon, because that represents closure, which makes more sense to me. But, I like to honour the way it was taught and give people the opportunity to do it differently if they feel that is right for them. So, waning moon it is …. unless you feel you want to do it at another time.
However, it really is not necessary to know or work with the phases of the moon to do this exercise. You can do it whenever you want and as often as you want. But please be aware that it is a very powerful process and you need to be gentle with yourself afterwards. You need to give the new energy time to flow in and settle before you do any more self-development work and support yourself energetically with self-treatments afterwards. Any shift will always bring things up for review and further clearance may be necessary.
Also, please be aware that you need to intend to clear the negative pattern from the whole of your Four Body System, your Charka System and all seven layers of your Aura. You do not want to leave a space for it to hide and wait to come back at another time, when you least expect it because you think you have cleared it completely. If you want it cleared completely, you have to intend it is released from absolutely everywhere…
For good measure, you can also ask Archangel Michael to cut any cords which may be connecting you to anything which would re-trigger the negative pattern at a later date. Don’t forget that although you can clear the energy, you can also regenerate it at any time. Most of us are actually very good at doing this, unfortunately! Be mindful and watch to see if you are and deal with it immediately!
Also, please use the crystals you are drawn to for the exercise rather than following the instructions blindly. It is your very clear intention which will get you the result you want.
And, if you do not have a handy block of selenite, a quartz – clearly programmed to remove your blockage – will work. Selenite is generally used because it is associated with the moon and resonates strongly with it. If you are not specifically working with the moon cycle, it doesn’t matter what you use.
And please remember that any written instructions are only ever a guide line. You are the authority on your spiritual journey, not the person writing the instructions. They are only ever helping you continue moving along your path to wholeness. You are the one who is actually walking down that path, so you know more about it than anyone else. Go with that, embrace it, and make the exercise your own if you want to. It can only help!
Additional note: If you have Reiki II, you can draw the first symbol on the paper with your clearing request, which helps with any manifestation process. You can also work with the second symbol while you are meditating with your quartz to enhance the clearing process. If you do not work with the symbols, you can simply Reiki the paper before you place it on the Selenite and allow Reiki to flow through you while you are meditating with your quartz.
- 1 Selenite to clear any unwanted or negative patterns
- 1 Clear Quartz to mediate with during the clearing process for guidance and insight.
- 1 Quartz to represent the energy you want to bring in after the clearing process is complete. Quartz is recommended because you can programme it and this will enhance the whole clearing process. Citrine would be the best because it holds only positive energy and also attracts abundance. However, any variety will work well for this exercise.
- Find somewhere your crystals be left undisturbed for 14 days. Clear the space and cleanse the crystals before programming them.
- Write down what you want to clear and place the paper it on the selenite which will remove and clear the old pattern while making space for the other crystal to invite in new energy.
- Place your second stone (which represents the new energy you want to attract after you have cleared your unwanted negative pattern) on top of your paper and leave your crystals undisturbed for 14 days. Note: to enhance the clearing process, every time you notice the crystals re-affirm what you wish to release and what you wish to attract and be grateful for the both.
- Also during the 14 cleansing period meditate as often as you want to with your second clear quartz. Hold it and gaze softly down at all the cracks and imperfections inside the crystal. As you gaze more deeply into the crystal, allow yourself to become aware of how all the cracks fit together perfectly, how perfect they are and how beautiful they make the crystal. They are perfect, even with their imperfections, just like you are.
- As you continue to look at your crystal, allow yourself to fully appreciate the cracks and imperfections – they represent all the things in your life that are often seen as problems or obstacles and all the clear spaces in the crystal represent times of clarity and the opportunities you have to grow. Together – they represent all of you, as they represent all of the crystal, and they are all beautiful. You are not complete without all the things which have challenged you and encouraged you to grow and expand and embody more of your Authentic Self. Allow yourself to be grateful for them and for all you have achieved because you have manifested them in your life.
- Also while you sit with your crystal decide if you want to spend some time meditating on the cracks and imperfections or the spaces. Each will be useful. You can ask the crystal to help you recognise your cracks and imperfections so you can deal with them before they become a problem. Or you can focus on the spaces in the crystal and ask it to show you how you can learn and grow even more. This is your journey to wholeness with your crystals. You need to choose which is the most appropriate way for you to work with them and achieve your goals so you can embody your full potential in this lifetime.
- If anything comes to you while you are meditating with your quartz and you wish to make an additional intention to help your clearing process, write your request down, programme your meditation quartz and place it on your piece of paper continuing your additional request.
- At the end of your 14 days – thank all your crystals, clear the space where they were working, cleanse them and allow yourself a rest period while all the new energy settles into your Four Body System.
Have fun doing the exercise, though it may be a strange new usage of the word fun, depending what it brings up for clearance. Whatever happens, it will be perfect for you and it will help you move forward in your life … on all levels, so that can’t be bad at all.
