Record-Keeper crystals have a very unique energy, matched only by their unusual appearance.

These crystals can be identified by the appearance of raised or sunken “record-keeper” triangles on the faces of the crystal. The record-keepers are typically formed when mineral-rich solution flowed over protrusions on the surface of the crystal point. They are normally found on only a few of the crystal faces (not all) and they show the direction of the fluid flow as the geologic event that formed them was occurring. Although most commonly found in minerals of the Quartz group (i.e. Clear Quartz, Smoky Quartz, Amethyst, Citrine, etc.), record-keepers are also sometimes present in the Corundum group (i.e. Ruby and Sapphire stones).

Are You Grounded? A Clairvoyant Technique

I’m always amazed at the number of people that ‘work’ in the spiritual realm that have no idea about grounding themselves.

WHAT ARE CRYSTAL GEM GRIDS?

Good Witches Homestead

They are tools for empowerment, for blessings, for prosperity, for love, for healing, for creating a sacred space, and much more. They can be used for any intention, from the simple goal of “bring more money” to the more serious, “banish this curse” to the great goal of “heal the planet”. Whatever your intention, the crystal grid is an effective use of crystal energy when done with your clean intention.

A grid is formed by making a geometric pattern with crystals, which can be tumbled stones or natural rough stones. The pattern can be any design you like – a Star of David which is the most popular, a Reiki symbol, a pentagram or another symbol of your choosing.
