CLEARING YOUR MIND: Lapis Lazuli is an astonishing stone and it can do many wonderful things, but with so much going on at the moment and so many energetic shifts happening, I would strongly recommend using it to clear your mind… if only to gain some relief from your thoughts, especially since they seem to be all over the place for most people at the moment.
So – to clear your mind – lie down and place one lapis on either side of your head and one at your crown chakra. Then, setting your intention to use the combined energy of all three stones, relax and breathe deeply and slowly for 15 minutes.
If you cannot lie down, you can work with lapis while sitting down. Hold the stone in your dominant hand, move the stone in a clockwise motion around your head, brow and crown chakras. You will know what you need to do when you start doing it. Trust your own instincts. If you have set the intention that you want to use the energy of your lapis to clear your mind, that’s what the energy will do. Moving it in a clockwise motion will just speed up the process.
You can enhance this process by using your breath to release anything you are consciously aware of. On your out breath intend to breathe the energy of quality you want to get rid of e.g. tension, anxiety, frustration, confusion … just pick one. The list is very long at the moment! And on the in breath draw in the quality you want to replace the negative energy with … peace, harmony, balance, love … again – the choice is yours. You know how you feel and what you need to feel better! Just use the words I AM breathing in/out………… as you breathe slowly and deeply.
OPENING YOUR THE MIND: Aragonite helps with this and opening your mind at this time will be hugely useful at the moment. It will allow you to embrace new ways of thinking and behaving as your energy shifts and it will open you to one of the most powerful things on the planet…. new possibilities.
So – all you have to do is lie down and place aragonite (any colour you are drawn to) over your brow chakra for 20 minutes a day for as long as you are guided to use the stone.
You can, if you like, alternate with your lapis because the key words for lapis are self-knowledge. So use the aragonite one day to open your mind and lapis the next day with the intention of allowing you to become aware of new, fabulous aspects of yourself… they are there. They are either buried under negative thoughts or you have dimply forgotten. Perhaps it’s time for you to remember exactly how amazing you are!
MIND ON OVER-DRIVE….: If you have a tendency to over-react to situations, or you are finding that your emotions are getting out of hand with two eclipses heading our way – moonstone is the best stone to maintain emotional balance. It will also calm over emotional responses. So wear or carry it to keep yourself stable.
TO CALM YOUR MIND: Just use that old favourite fluorite – the Chinese fluorite is particularly useful because it contains clear, green and purple. It does so many things that you could probably write a book about it, but in this context it will certainly open your mind to new possibilities, which is hugely important to your growth process. It is also a powerful grounding stone and it will stabilise everything. Its key words are: order from chaos. And I think everyone is well aware of how much chaos there is around them at the moment!! This stone will help you cope with at… at least a little.
It will also:
- help releases suppressed emotions
- help facilitate life changes
- calm a chaotic mind and stimulate flexibility in your thinking process
- help you talk about what you need more easily and confidently
- cleanse and repair of the auric field
- activate and energize all chakras
I hope all this information helps you in some way. It might only be one thing. It might be everything. You’ll know what is right for you.
