Thank you Margaret so much for sharing your knowledge with us.

If anyone is thinking of doing this colurse, you could not ask for a better teacher.

So pleased i did this workshop. I have had a love for crystals for many years and have attended many one day workshops. BUT, on this course you get an insurable qualification that i can add to my list of therapies.

Amanda - Kent

I am so pleased to have participated as a student in Margaret's crystal course. I have waited 3 years to do this with Margaret, as i knew when i first saw her that she'd eventually be my crystal therapist teacher and a lifetime of inspiration. What a wonderful course and thank you for making it so easy to follow and understand. Especially for people like me who suffer from dyslexia and discalculiar. From now on i will do everything that was taught to me by Margaret and i will practice all the time until my hubby builds me a therapist cabin next year as my prize for passing this course. This is my dream come true at long last.

Jodie - Kent.

The crystal course was intensive and very informative. It was a combined balance of theory and practical which was really helpful to establish learning. I really enjoyed myself on this course as the atmosphere was extremely friendly and small enough to build a great rapport with the other students. Margaret was a very enthusiastic and passionate tutor and crystal therapist, yet very professional. She is ready to answer all queries and i feel blessed to have been a part of this course. It has felt like i was around good friends throughout the whole course. Thank you Margaret for all your help.

Fab experience and I am looking forward to my crystal journey continuing.

How to use a pendulum

A pendulum is an object suspended by a cord/chain, used for obtaining information which the normal senses are unable to access on a conscious level. The pendulum, as an extension of the person using it. It may be influenced both consciously and subconsciously making the responses accurate as well as inaccurate. Wishful thinking or a preconceived outcome, however slight, can be magnified making the use of the pendulum in that instance ineffective. The user must take steps to prevent this. So please don't ask it if your husband/wife is having an affair, if you will win money etc. You will get a poor response and sometimes inaccurate one if you do so.

Please watch the video below. You will see a light shooting past me a few times, this is an orb and they frequently will appear in my videos as my guides and helpers in spirit work with me. Some of my pendulums are custom made by me and therefore can only be bought from my company Connections with spirit, so do look in our STORE if you are interested in purchasing one.

Cleansing Crystals.

Sometimes a stone or crystal you are strongly drawn to doesn't feel right when you hold it. This could mean that it needs to be cleansed and cleared. It is very important you do this before any healing with a crystal takes place. A cleared, crystal feels positive, tingly in the hand and cold to the touch. A crystal that burdened may feel hot, heavy or sticky. There are a number of ways to clear crystals.

1. SMUDGING - A quick way to cleanse is to smudge the crystals with burning cedar or sage. Simply hold the burning sage or cedar stick while passing your stone through the smoke.

2. MOONLIGHT- Place outside or on a window ledge from the Full to the New Moon. Waning Moons are even better.

3. HERBS - Burying your crystal in a cupful of rose petals, sage, frankincense, myrrh, and sandalwood for 24 hours will clear them.

4. Crystals may also be buried into the Earth. Bury your crystal point down, and cover with soil. In a plant pot on the window ledge for a week or so will recharge them.

5. The Sacred Breath - Use your breath to 'blow away' any negativity from the stone, simply hold the stone in your hand and blow on it, while blowing ask your higher self to cleanse the crystal.

6. Finally, if you are in a hurry and they are water soluble, run them under cool tap water. Make sure the points are facing down the drain to run the negative energy down the sink.NEVER USE W HOT WATER, THIS WILL FRACTURE OR BREAK YOUR CRYSTALS

Programing Crystals.

The purpose of programming a crystal is to focus its abilities on something you specifically need, thereby magnifying the stone's intent through your own. The purpose of dedicating the stone to a high level healing energy is to protect it from negative energy. A crystal or stone that is programmed and dedicated in these ways becomes much more powerful and useful as a tool. Although a crystal is inanimate, they are still living things and have a life-force energy in the centre of their matrix.

Here is a quick and easy way to program your crystal.

Picture the crystal in your mind as being huge. On the side of it is a door. Open it, go inside and look around. You will see colours, matrix lines, energy pulses and your body will tingle as you connect with the crystal. Hold your arms out, palms upwards and visualise light coming from them. The light may start as white, but it may change colour of its own accord. Let it happen. Ask the crystal to help with what you need it for. Whether it is for healing different illnesses or one, let it know. When the light from you palms stop, thanks the crystal, come out of the door and close it. That crystal is now programmed and ready to work. Once a stone is programmed, it will hold its intent until you reprogram it. To prevent any negative energy from attaching itself to your crystal, hold it in your hand and state clearly "Only the most positive high-level energy may work through this healing tool".

Charging a crystal

Before it can be used a crystal must really have a day and a night on a Citrine, selenite slab. or a Clear quartz bed. If you do not have this maybe use a selenite cross. Which is placing four blocks of selenite in a cross formation, around your crystal. This charges your crystal and re-energises it.

It's traveled a long way to get to you and been touched by many people. It now needs to rest and recharge.
