The Aquarian Age is upon us, as the chaos of day-to-day life insists on reminding us daily.
It’s easy to get swept up in this era of modernization and progress, but it can be a struggle to remain grounded, and it is common to find that our nerves are frazzled and our energy is out of alignment.
There are many different ways of finding calm amidst the madness, but harnessing the grounding, ancient techniques of our forebears using healing crystals that far predate the Aquarian Age is a simple and effective technique.
When we bring healing crystals into our practice we are drawing upon the mystic wisdom of our ancestors to guide us, but we are also allowing the stones, extracted from the earth, to ground us. This enables our energy to flow and equalize through the ground, keeping us calm and allowing us to see our path clearly.
The best stones for this job are wood and metal element stones. These stones are not energetically dense, and act as an effective conduit with the Earth. Here are the best healing crystals for the Aquarian Age, and how to use them in your practice.
1. Jade
Beautiful jade is all about promoting balanced energies, nurturing the body and soul, and bringing love, acceptance, and emotional support to its user. It supports the Heart Chakra, which helps us to remain compassionate in a world which tests our love, and encourages forgiveness and empathy.
Jade is a strong earth element stone, which bonds us to the Earth, encouraging us to always keep nature in our hearts, even when we are in the heart of the city.
2. White Calcite
White calcite brings the ability to see more clearly, even when the world seems muddied by chaos. It has the most impact on the Crown and Third Eye Chakras, which are connected to intuition and clarity.
Try placing a piece of white calcite on the third eye during meditation. This opens our eyes to not only the path ahead, but all possible paths. It brings lucidity and forward thinking, without overwhelming us with options.
This clarifying process allows us to shed parts of ourselves which are weighing us down and not leading us to our goals, which lightens the burden of the Aquarian Age on our bodies significantly.
3. Jet
The beautiful black jet is the perfect healing crystal for the Aquarian Age. Its powers are twofold: it soothes anxiety and depression, and it helps us to stay grounded and present.
Anxiety and depression are common in the Aquarian Age as we struggle to juggle life and the changing world around us. Jet draws away negative energies, bringing a soothing quality, as well as emotional stability that helps us to feel fortified against the chaos of the world. This helps us to juggle our responsibilities with calmness and rationality.
Jet is such a strong purifier of energies that it can even be used to cleanse other stones, simply by placing them together in a bowl.
