VALERIE SMITH: We all look for synchronicity in our life. We love it when we think about someone and the phone rings and it is them or when we need help with something and either the perfect person shows up or they tell us about their friend who can help.

But, what about the times that things don’t flow, we just miss the sale or something breaks down the day after the warrantee runs out. Unfortunately, many people relate to the latter situation more than they do the first. But, we all want things to work out or to flow as we need.

When using crystals and stones we tune into their frequencies so we are more able to use our natural gifts of healing. This in turn helps us achieve what we are looking for, whether this is better health, improved relationships, healed emotions, higher physical energy or to be connected to our higher self and the universe so we are in synchronicity with our path and the universal energies.

Chrysanthemum Stone is the epitome of synchronicity with different minerals coming together like calcite, chalcedony, quartz, celestite, andalusite and feldspar on a bed of any combination of gypsum, dolomite and limestone, which together create a beautifully artistic creation that can literally look like a pretty white flower on a black or brown background.

Chrysanthemum Stone brings us to the present moment, the ‘now’ which is not wrapped up in the regrets of the past or the fears of the future. Being free of these negative energies helps us to flow freely with life, to intuitively be where we should be to live a life filled with joy and abundance. From this place we have the courage to live our dream, to take appropriate action and to move forward. When we are filled with joy and gratitude for our life, our intuition and creativity is enhanced immensely helping us to be inspired in life knowing what we want and how to get it.

Golden Topaz has a deep and powerful energy. It balances and calms our emotions, releasing tensions which stop us in our tracks. As it brings us joy we begin to move through life easily as we flow with synchronicity, receiving good fortune and becoming successful in our endeavours. It holds a spiritual energy opening our intuition, helping us to bring peace and love into our life as we tap into our inner strengths. We will feel more confident becoming more open while exhibiting great wisdom. On a healing perspective it renews our energy, regenerates our cellular structure and relieves nervous exhaustion.

Sunstone, a strong masculine stone, brings the energy of the sun to every part of our body, energizing it while releasing the low negative energy of depression, stress, anxiety and phobias. It is commonly used to relieve Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). It increases our strength, stamina and vitality. Because of the cleansing effect of the sun energy everyday is like a sunny date, things fall into place naturally, and we seem to be in the right place at the right time. Our energy is enhanced so we are noticed by those who can help us and we have the energy to follow through. Our cheerful and sunny attitude attracts all good things so it is thought that Sunstone brings 'good luck'.

Elestial Quartz is a Master Quartz which helps us to overcome anything in life. It is recognized by its many faces over the body of the stone. It helps us to connect to the Angelic Realm so we feel protected and blessed. When using this stone it helps us to stay on our spiritual path as we align with the wisdom of the universe. This universal wisdom opens our intuition and evolution to the light bringing synchronicity into our life. As we stay true to our path the universe lines up everything for us as we are ready for it.

Moonstone brings a gentle feminine energy to all who keep it near them. It helps us to naturally flow with our cycles and the universal cycles. Being in tune with our cycles means we easily let go of unserving energies and invite in new energies as we move forward. This lunar energy moves deeply within us healing our emotions, helping us to know who we are and what we need. Our creativity and self-expression is then enhanced so our life feels joyful and fulfilling. As life continues to open up for us we find what we need when we need it, easily moving away from anything which will block us or hold us back.

Green Gaspeite is an uncommon stone, which is a beautiful apple green colour. It holds a highly spiritual energy extending our consciousness, and assisting us in understanding the spiritual aspects of situations. This higher knowledge helps us know what we need and how to align ourselves with our true life path, letting go of the habits that no longer work for us. Living our life with spiritual truth, we tap into the energy of synchronicity in life. It is also a very healing stone helping those who use it to intuitively know what is needed.

For the purpose of synchronicity we would want to keep the stones we are using near us at all times, keeping their energy clear. The quickest method to clear stones would be to hold them using prayer and white light. Placing these stones in a Genesa Crystal (sacred geometry structure) in our home will not only keep the energy of the stones clear, but will fill our home with this energy too.

If wanting to choose only two of the above stones, Sunstone and Moonstone together complement each other well, bringing the masculine (Sunstone) and feminine (Moonstone) together to balance these energies within us too.

Why not have some fun trying each stone to see which resonate with your energy the best?
