HEALING CRYSTALS – THE HERKIMER DIAMOND
In this article we will tell you about a unique mineral used in crystal therapy – the Herkimer diamond.
The Herkimer diamond is a unique quartz form that crystallises in configurations of double-pointed, solid, pure (transparent) or impure (with inclusions from other minerals) prismatic crystals. The name of this mineral comes from its discovery as a pseudo-diamond in Herkimer county in the state of New York, USA. This crystal facilitates the cleansing of the mind-body system from unconscious fears and suppressed internal impulses. It also provides the possibility for full relaxation and large scope expansion of the inner energy as well as release of the tension from the physical body.
This mineral exudes the energy of refined harmony, activates our instincts and natural spontaneity. It helps us ‘be’ by giving us softness and power at the same time and by opening the way to a deeper understanding of our spiritual core. The acknowledgement of this aspect enhances our self-awareness and self-esteem as the real and intransient beings that we actually are and which live in each and every one of us.
The energy of the Herkimer diamond helps to discover a new beginning in our lives by developing our capacity to experience and value our own internal space and remember that “there is no need to struggle to be something” – we are everything we are looking for, we just have to let it be.
The Herkimer diamond is also known as a stone ‘of adjustment and alignment’. Anyone can use it to ‘adjust’ and align himself with another person, with the environment or with the activity he is engaged in.
It is important to use the Herkimer diamond just before the positioning of the crystals in crystal therapy or in other healing treatments in which just before the session the healer and the patient hold together the Herkimer diamond for a few minutes.
If we put one part of the Herkimer diamonds druse in a particular place and we carry another one with us, we can align ourselves with the activities or energies of this place.
In order the achieve lasting harmony between two people, each of them should carry for a long period a Herkimer diamond with him or her where they have to regularly exchange them. The same practice should be applied to groups of people.
Apart from that, the Herkimer diamond stimulates the clairvoyance and clairaudience as well as enhances your psychic skills and telepathic communication.
The Herkimer diamond can receive and store information that can later be reproduced; also, a certain information – intention can be installed in the mineral, which can then be given to somebody as a gift (the installed intention towards the other can vary from healing and recovery to sharing of love desires). After the crystal has been loaded with solidified thoughts of love, it can be used for fencing spaces to facilitate healing processes and for the wellbeing of others and the Earth.
Some people who work in proximity to radioactive materials carry this stone on their body or with themselves to protect them and to create a defence barrier around them.
