Mindfulness and Wisdom

Whatever your doing, wherever you are, as best you can, give it your full attention. Focus, don't daydream. Try not to remember the past, or imagine the future, but try to live in the present.

This is Mindfulness.

If this present moment is a pleasure experience enjoy it while it last, but remember it won't last forever, because everything changes.

If this present moment is an unpleasant experience, be patient and look forward with hope to the future, because things will change for the better.

Life is Dynamic.

Understanding impermanence is wisdom.

Sabin - Crystal Energy Exercise

Taken from: Thea Sabin, ‘Wicca for Beginners’ (pp. 45-46).

 Crystals are natural batteries so their energies tend to be easier to feel. Sit comfortably, relax and pick up the stone or crystal in your hand. Hold it gently and see what you feel. You may not feel anything in your hand at all but instead may “feel” the sensation in your head. You may get a mental image instead of a physical sensation. Or you may just feel the crystal zinging in your palm. Is their energy different? If so, how? Are some easier to sense than others?

I will explain my experience with each rock, from left to right.

Far left: This one was the last of the four minerals which I attempted this exercise. I felt that I connected with the energy almost instantly. It felt universal, like it wasn’t as attached to the earth as the other minerals. I visualised myself zooming through the cosmos with its vibrancy all around me.

Centre left: This was the first mineral I tried this exercise with. I saw it in my mind as surrounded by energy which appeared wispy and white, and I felt an association with the moon. I also felt that it was a serene energy capable of healing, light and calm protection.

Centre right: This was the second mineral with which I attempted this exercise. This one was harder for me to pick up. I was expecting to see and feel the energy in a similar way to how I’d picked it up from the first rock, but instead of seeing energy, I was visualising a forest setting with a stream running through it. It was a very grounded feeling, and I sense the the rock is very connected with the Earth.

Far right: This was the third rock I tried the exercise with. As a little test, I closed my eyes to pick the third rock so I wouldn’t be able to see what it looked like. I felt that it was possible my visualisations were being impacted by what the rocks looked like (as opposed to its energy alone). When I picked this one up, I could feel the smooth exterior. The energy I got from this was strong, defensive, protective, impenetrable. In my mind, I saw images of armour.

I don’t really know what these visualisations mean. I know that it feels I am sensing their energies but the sketpical part of my brain says it is just my imagination. To be quite frank, even if it is my imagination I experience it as if it were real and I believe I can experience benefits either way. I find the sensation of trying to feel the energies of these rocks quite calming. I would like to do some more research into different crystals and their meanings.

Does anyone know what any of these rocks/crystals are called?
