Start with a meditation and a good supply of different types and colors of stones. Ask the stone's permission for the healing, as well as the permission of the person's spirit that you are working with. Then, open your heart chakra and focus on the healee. As you lay the stones on the corresponding areas of the body that need healing, listen to your intuition. If your instinct tells you to place a green stone over the heart chakra, do. If you are reading the person's aura and see that their aura is a nice green color, but there is a yellow spot that looks imbalanced, you might want to place a blue stone there until there is a balanced green throughout the auric field. Visualization is an excellent companion to crystal healing. Visualize the aura smoothing out and vibrating with a healthy glow. Along with visualization, there is sound. Sound creates color. Allow the stones to remain on the body for however long you feel is necessary. If you person experiences any discomfort whatsoever, any numbness, headaches, dizziness, or emotional distress, remove the stones and end the session. This rarely ever happens. At the end of a healing session, lie still for a few moments before getting up. A light snack or herbal tea is a wonderful way to end the treatment. Remember to give thanks to the spirits and the stones for the healing they have provided. |

Moonstone is considered a sacred stone in India, and in the orient in general, it is considered good luck. Moonstone is said to have a spirit light inside it which moves, making it a trance-inducing stone highly beneficial to the field of hypnotherapy or for the practice of self-hypnosis. It is a good tool for scrying and divinatory practices. It is said that if you hold a Moonstone in your mouth on the night of a full moon, you will see the future of your love relationship. If you suffer from mood swings during the moon phases, set your Moonstone in a silver ring and wear it on your right finger for balance.

Rhodonite is also a calming stone that can cast off confusion, doubt, and incoherency. You may wear it to close off your third eye chakra for a little while when needed. Often times, we're clouded by external messages and this gives us a rest from our psychic input. Opal is an especially magical stone. It has the color and qualities of healing of all the stones, thus it has the energy of all stones which makes it truly powerful. Opal is a wonderful companion for astral travel and can keep one protected during these out of body experiences. It can also aid in past life regressions, which can be accomplished simply by gazing into the Opal. To help increase psychic intuition, wear Opals as earrings.

Opal will also crack if you are out of balance, so it needs to be cared well for. Peridot is capable of giving and receiving healing energy, thus it can be charged with healing energy and used when needed for crystal healing.

It can also help in severe cases of damage to the central nervous system that can be caused by stress, and it can help rid us of toxins found in the physical body, the aura, or in our surroundings. Peridot is also a very protective stone and can guard against psychic attacks. This is another stone that can bring on a peaceful sleep. Sapphire is one of the seven Corundum stones once worn by the people of ancient Greece. Sapphire represents wisdom, magnamimous thought, love, good manners, and vigilance, and it enables the wearer to see into the soul of the world. This stone also has the ability to attract good spirits and spirit guides when we need them. Ayurvedic healers use the Sapphire to help with rheumatism, sciatica, neurological pain, epilepsy, hysteria, and all nervous disorders. Lore has it that this stone will change colors when worn by a person who has an unfaithful nature, so it was often given to the new bride as a gift from her husband on their wedding night. Gazing into the sapphire helps prepare for meditation by quieting the mind, and it also helps open the third eye and increase psychic awareness. Scott Cunningham states that in the spiritual practice of Wicca, there is a saying by Bartholmaeus that holds true: "Also wytches love well this stone, for they wene (ween, "believe") that they may werke certen wondres by vertue of this stone." It is used in magic to increase wealth.
