💎 Crystal Card of the Day for September 19th, 2017!⠀

Some individuals are highly attuned to others' thoughts, emotions, or physical sensations. They actually have open energy centers that, when engaged with others, act as receivers to their vibrations and amplify them. If this is one of the ways you receive life force energy, you may require time out with a lot of people and find it extremely pleasurable and energizing. If you are a receptor for thoughts, emotions, etc., you may require much alone time to recharge your own battery and partake in activities that discharge the excess energy you've received from others. It can feel overstimulating, overwhelming, and very uncomfortable, but if you understand your tendencies, you are much more equipped to navigate social interaction. As you get to know yourself by staying present and observing the passing thoughts, feelings, and sensations, you begin to gain clarity around what is yours and what you're taking on from others. And like any other sensitivity, you can turn it around and make it your greatest asset -- a specialized signaling mechanism from your unique system to alert you to your needs and limits.
Clear Quartz acts much like these open energy centers, amplifying vibration and intention. So, it's important to be present and mindful when working with this powerful healing stone. It's extraordinary for working in tandem with healing energy, intention setting, and amplifying the effects of other stones. The points of a quartz geode are powerful energy emitters, providing laser-like focus, so they work wonderfully in directing and focusing intention and vibration, like in a crystal grid or layout. Be mindful when working with clear quartz that it can do harm, as it amplifies indiscriminately and needs regular clearing. When used properly, it can be a brilliant ally in manifestation and healing. Power and focus to you!
