The chevron amethyst, healing and meditation

Yesterday was lesson two of my Stone Medicine and Chinese Medicine classes. In this lesson, we did a beautiful meditation with stones, learned about the five elements, diagnostics, and much more. Great!

In the lesson, we discussed and meditated with the chevron amethyst. It’s a stone that helps you focus during meditation and helps you ground (where needed). It’s my favorite stone at the moment: the chevron amethyst.

You can see it has stripes. A piece of purple crystal, just like a regular amethyst, but with bands of white quartz or feldspar. The photo shows tumbled stones. The rough pieces are pure, while the rounder and more lustrous stones have an extra sheen added during the processing. The rough pieces are my favorite; I feel the stone’s energy a little more strongly in them than with the others. But of course, taste is personal.

The Chevron Amethyst According to Chinese Medicine
As mentioned, the Chevron Amethyst is a more potent amethyst, meaning it can work slightly more powerfully than regular amethyst.
This is how it works:

– Strengthens the Yin meridians of the eight extra meridians, such as Chong Mai and Ren Mai. This means this stone helps to heal blocked communication with the outside world and with yourself. By being more connected to yourself, you can also connect better with people in the outside world.

– Strengthens the connection between the Heart and Kidneys. When these two communicate properly, you are completely balanced. A healthy relationship between love (heart) and fear (kidneys). Between water (kidneys) and fire (heart). You need both to live a healthy and balanced life.

– Physically, the stone can help repair damage to the Jing and DNA, and may also support cancer healing. This also concerns your foundation. Just like the heart and kidneys, the chong mai and ren mai. This is your foundation. In Chinese medicine, you see that body, mind, and emotions are integrated into the healing process. Because this stone brings you so close to yourself, it’s a wonderful stone for meditation.

Amazing Qi healing

I must have been 14 or 15 years old, my world consisted of going to school, hanging with friends, and a lot of horseback riding. I had no clue about qigong, China, healing, Qi, or martial arts. 

Even so, I had no clue about paranormal abilities, not even my own. My world was pretty small at that time growing up in a little town nearby the sea in Holland.

Snow globe mind (1)

When I was born, my mind was clear, a tabula rasa some might say.But before we travel deeper into the workings of the mind, we need to go on a little energy side track. 

I have this idea I carry a lot of information with me into this life. Information from my former lives, biological family, and other places. That specific information is stored in my energy field and my cells.

Being in harmony with your environment

Balance means being in harmony with our environment. How we are inside reflects how things are around us and vice versa. Here in the West, we find it hard to believe we are one with our environment. Individualistic, separate, and dualistic are our favorite ways to think. 

But in many ancient cultures, our belief system was different. We were believed to be one with nature, humans, and animals surrounding us, one in one great energy field, living together in a balanced way. Today we still find these beliefs in shamanistic practices.

Projectie.
Wanneer we naar de ander kijken projecteren we onze wensen,
gevoelens en behoeften op de ander.
De ander is als water, spiegelend.

Projection.
When we look at the other we project our desires,

feelings and desires onto the other person.
The other is like water, reflecting.
