Reply #11: Wrapping quartz crystals in copper wire is reputed to increase power.

Assume that the "cloudy" end of a double-terminated crystal is the feminine energy. Hold it pointed away from you and wrap the wire counterclockwise coming toward you. This way, it will be clockwise "going up," which is said to be the direction that is most efficacious for amplifying the crystal's energy.

I clear my crystals by immersing them in a glass bowl which contains a quart of water (Mountain Valley Spring Water if you can get it) into which a cup of sea salt has been dissolved. It is said that the water should be the same temperature as the crystals. I leave them outside for 24 hours and then rinse them under running water. The next day, one can often see where the salt has settled around the crystals in some real interesting patterns--much like iron filings on cardboard under which a magnet is held.

After this cleansing is done, they are ready to receive intent ("programming") for whatever task is to be done. One method I have been told about is to hold the crystal (feminine end down) in the left hand (provided one is right-handed) and hold the right hand over the point while giving intent for the task. And that would be a lot like Reiki, wouldn't it?

I use quartz crystals, anywhere from six to fourteen at a time, in CloudBusters to counteract chemtrails and in other Orgonite devices which are really soothing/healing/focusing to be around.

Sweet Surrender Crystal Mine near Mount Ida, Arkansas, has some of the finest quartz you ever saw and they sell by mail order at reasonable prices IMO. Check them out here.

Other Orgonite devices can be found at this site.
