Crystalline healing

[Somniferia]

I have many crystals back home, and earlier I've noticed that there is a an energy spike of a greaseious energy on the point of my rose quartz, so I've came to a conclusion that my rose needs healing. Therefore I have made it in to the bathroom where I carefully washed the crystal in luke warm water and left it there while I had tap water going on. This helped it to regain some of it's diminished energy, now days the greaseious energy has turned into wheaty dry energy and I wonder how the rose is doing, but he has company from other crystals and I wonder that one or two more healing actions will be performed on the quartz before he is fully recovered. But I dunno what the energy flux came from.

Got any ideas about any crystal illnesses?
I haven't noticed any other problems, only residual energy from scrying and such.

Most commercial crystals are mined or blasted from the ground for profit (often by people whose health and safety are of little concern to their employers...), treated with toxic chemicals and transported around the world to be sold to people who like nice energies. Perhaps you or your rose quartz are picking up on some of this unethical and unpleasant treatment of some of your pet rocks. Reburial or repatriation might help (most rose quartz comes from underground in Brazil), or getting involved with campaigns to make the crystal mining industry more safe and ethical might cheer your rose quartz up. Perhaps in time, your stones will come to forget their sad past and will work to create happiness for you. Or maybe you will just need to nurse them through their depression and allow them to grieve for their lost homeland.

a reason why I've stopped buying any, and prefer regular river rocks for any druidy work

If I just cast one spell x.x , but I wonder what would happen. And after a while it returned to it's normal and it is sparkling now with the other crystals. Guess a false alarm who knows what they have been up to when the are gathered for that long, I wonder.

Greetings and welcome, Somniferia! I see you are new here. I hope you enjoy your stay with us and good luck with your quartz.

Blessings, Aigeann

FYI: Soaking stones and sometimes including salt in a 'bath' for them is good. The biggest thing that helps in to give them a strong dose of sunlight and/or moonlight. You should let them get exposed for days. You can flip them over and things like that if you like.

One can fuss over the best way to do this, but that's the general idea. The fresh light sort of purges them of the past.

I really didn't expect to have anything to say, but I guess I picked that up and found it useful along the way.

I'm an Ovate, but I didn't learn that from the gwers.

Actually, if you have that type of sensitivity its very good, not everyone does.

Katie B, I very much enjoyed your post.

Here is a link to a site that claims to sell only ethically hand mined crystals for anybody interested.
