Elemental energies in the mineral kingdom.
While on the surface it may seem obvious that all stones carry Earth element energy, upon closer inspection it becomes evident that this is not necessarily the case. Some stones carry very low-frequency energies, while others carry very high-frequency energy. Some are more suited for physical healing, while others are more resonant with the emotional, energetic or mental aspects. The tremendous range of energy carried by the mineral kingdom clearly reflects the range of energies present in the elemental forces of nature. In order to understand the relationship of these energies, it is necessary to understand the holistic interactions of all energies available to us on Earth, and how they are balanced and distributed around the planet.
In order to understand the relationship between minerals and stones and the elemental energies they carry, it is necessary to first understand the holistic organism that is our planet and the ways in which the elemental forces and crystals and stones affect the total organism.
Gaia has an energy field, or aura, that consists of electromagnetic energy. Humans also have an electromagnetic field that surrounds and permeates our bodies. Within the Earth the continental plates constantly shift and drift to balance Gaia's body. This densest aspect of Gaia represents the energy of the Earth element. In our own bodies, this element is represented by the movement of our densest aspect - our bones and muscles. Gaia's fiery core continually recycles Earth by melting down stone and releasing energy through volcanoes and geothermal activity. This energy is the Fire element, and it is mirrored in our own bodies by the digestion of food and its transformation into energy and heat. Gaia's circulatory system shifts and moves through the tides of the oceans and the flowing of rivers, streams, springs, lakes and pounds, carring nourishment to every part of her being and taking away waste. This is the Water element, which is reflected in our own circulatory and lymph systems. the breath of Gaia circulates around and through her body in the form of air and other gases. This is the Wind element , which is present in us as the breath and gases of our bodies. The element of Storm is created when all four elements forces are empowered at once. This element is a dynamic balancing force that helps the Earth correct imbalances within her energy field. We also experience the energy of Storm within our bodies as experiences of massive cleansing, spiritual awakening and the correction of vibrational imbalance.
In order for the Earth to be healthy, all these aspects must be in balance and empowered. If any single element force is out of balance, the organism becomes diseased. This is true of humans as well. If any one of our systems is imbalanced it compromises our health and well-being. Health, in fact, is a state of dynamic balance between these elemental forces- both in the Earth and in our own organism.
When we bring a crystal or stone into our electromagnetic field, two things occur. First, The electromagnetic frequencies carried by that stone will vibrate with related frequencies in our own energy field through the physical law of resonance, creating a third, larger field of vibration. Your nervous system is attuned to these shifts in energy and will transmit this information to your brain, where the frequencies stimulate biochemical shifts that affect the physical body, trigger emotional experiences and shift brain function to open your spiritual experience.
Second, the tiny particles of minerals in your body that also carry that (molecular) frequency will move into resonance with the particles of mineral in the stone. This causes your body to believe that you actually have more of that mineral in your body and it will react accordingly with additional biochemical shifts. For instance, if you are holding a calcium-based stone, the calcium particles in your own body will be activated by moving into resonance with the calcium in the stone. This will create a third, stronger energetic field that carries the calcium in your physical system. This may trigger physical healing of calcium-imbalance-based illness, or it may trigger emotional or even spiritual experiences.
The experience you have when holding a mineral, then, is directly realted to its electromagnetic energy signature and the systems of the body, mind and spirit which resonate at that energetic level. These systems
