Stones of Complexity, Power and Healing

Oracle Stones

Oracle stones are highly complex rocks with multiple levels of energy intricacy. They often show elemental energy pathways at levels that approach those seen in high-energy particle collisions. There is a profound feeling of looking at another world from a high altitude. They possess a large number of interlaced crystal disks of varying degrees of thinness. One can enter into metaphysical states through the use of Oracle stones. Oracle stones offer a confirmatory view of the results of Feng Shui analysis through their high detail spiritual networks of crystalline complexity.

Power Stones, by their very nature, possess both complexity and capacity. Complexity refers to the patterns evidenced in the stone, the textural nature of the stone and by the stones ability to hold or manipulate energies. Capacity means that stones may have a spiritual balance brought about by the number of energy patterns to which they respond. Power Stones can maintain the continuation of an energy state in the same way that capacitors hold electrons. They are particularly used in a shared or healing environment to transfer energy, draw negative elements, focus positive energy and provide harmonization.

This storage or capacitance of a Power Stone allows personal energies to transfer between individuals and thus enhance healing, guidance or growth. It is possible to receive energy information by having another touch or handle Oracle Stones and then using one's sensitivity and energy experience to resonate those vibrations as in healing situations. Crystals are not used in such situations as their amplification properties are not appropriate for complex energy networks. The stone resonates with what might be called “Auric” energy and mediates the transfer back into the spiritual energy of the healer or holder where it now resonates with new information.

The Force of the Spiritual Energy of the Earth

What does each of us feel when we hear the news of great disasters? Shaman has always thought that a great concept in entertainment was that of the “Force.” A man reacts to the spiritual essence of the universe and knows that the great disturbance in the “Force” signals the death of a planet. Recently, the structure and the motion of the Earth has been changing and with it the Spirit of the Earth has resounded in each of us. How could it not? The death of thousands of people, no matter where they lived, will always affect us in some spiritual way.

Relying on what our heart says rather that fitting and conforming that feeling into a thought keeps that particular spiritual linkage alive. It is as if the hyper-complex spiritual energy produced in thinking overpowers the deeper vibrations and sympathetic resonances much like whistling in the dark. The balance of all of our inner energy states constitutes our sensitivity to outside energies. We learn early to suppress these sensitivities. They have socially been discouraged in favor of physical skills.

Spiritual Objects

Spiritual Objects possess unique characteristics.

As we live in the flow of energy in our life, we acquire objects, beliefs and practices that we feel are an integral part of our journey. Consider the classical archetype of spiritual individuals who are nearly always depicted with spiritual objects – books, orbs, crosses, cats, auras and other manifestations. There is always a risk of ascribing the spiritual effects such objects have with the object itself. This misconception can and will divert or delay us from progress on our true path.

Identifying Energy Fields

Every attempt we make at harmonizing our lives depends on the flow of energies around us. To identify the interactions and effects of the many energy fields we live within each waking moment and our own personal energy receptivity and energy emissions is a critical part of enlightenment. Look at each power, phone, cable and other lines either above or below you. Remember the never ending flow of neutrinos, cosmic rays, television, radio and microwaves surrounding you. Meditate on the energy you give off, the infrared waves from digestion, the electromagnetic waves from your EKG and your EEG, the general broadcast of your nervous system.

Remember the days when you were inundated with energies and sought the insulation of your home. The benefits and disadvantages of living in the city can be balanced by following spiritual principles and by maintaining spiritual practices.

Who is Shaman in the City?

Shaman in the City was called to mediate between the Spirit of the Earth and those who would restore Its healing presence in their lives. The energy of human spirits is sensitive to both social and technology pressures. We use our thoughts, prayers and energies to try and maintain some sense of spirituality in our lives. The tools we use - books, groups, objects, rituals and practices - provide help on our path. We also need the wisdom of the ages and of today to find our way.

In every place on the land, the spiritual energy of the Earth penetrates. It may concentrate, It may dissolve. Each of us has sensory abilities to find and utilize this spiritual energy. We may say that we feel this spiritual energy in certain places or within certain assemblages. This is the power of the Spirit of the Earth that is easily lost as we age and distance ourselves from Its sources. We can easily lose our path in the cities of today with people and their lives overtaking open space and ancient places being erased.

People in Western America live on land that was once far out in the Pacific Ocean that plowed into the North American continent, already ancient. Generations of island systems, small continental masses and isolated pieces of ancient volcanoes piled up. Plate tectonics will not be denied. It continues to cycle old oceanic crust up through volcanoes and rifts across each band of earth. Through heat, pressure and water, new rocks and crystals are created. Of course it will continue after we are gone.

Each place carries its own unique spiritual signature that now has become merged with the continent. Such places are usually identified geophysical features. The elements and pieces form features recognizable as spiritual expressions. Whether sculpted or metamorphosed, people are drawn to such places in attempts to rekindle their spiritual search. Shaman helps however possible to bring harmony to all the children of the Spirit of the Earth.
