The 3 key actions for the good of your minerals:
Cleaning, reloading, programming:
Before continuing even further on stones, I wanted to remind you of just one thing regarding the proper use of your minerals if you wish to take the greatest care of them and treat them with all the love and consideration they are due. Indeed your minerals are like your friends and your guides, and in the same way that they take care of you, you must take care of them. Your minerals are there to act on different levels: physical, psychic, etheric, psychological and even to defend and protect your habitat. So poor maintenance of your minerals will only have the effect of no longer providing you with anything because your mineral will be said to be "Evacuated of all energy" or in the second case, your mineral will throw back in your face everything it got rid of earlier, (like a dishwashing sponge that you never take care to rinse). So regularly, take the time to clean them, recharge them and reprogram them .
How to clean your stones?
- Cleaning of stones (for stones with a non-ferrous and non-porous or friable base) is done with running water. If possible a body of water: stream, river, sea. Because like a dishwashing sponge cannot be rinsed in a bowl of water, the same goes for your minerals.


- Cleaning the stones (for porous or friable ferrous stones) is done as follows: place your minerals on a rock crystal mat or more commonly called rock salt (salt lamp). Be careful not to use rock salt under any circumstances. inside a bowl of water to then immerse its minerals in it, in which case, the salt would penetrate inside your crystals in a liquid state and would find itself trapped there and returning to its solid state when drying it would then create microcracks inside it. It is also possible to rinse this category of minerals with clean water but they must be dried very quickly. Small clarification, selenite dissolves in water and loses all its shine, so do not immerse it at the risk of finding it dull afterwards.


How to recharge your minerals?
Reloading is done in various ways:
- In the sun for stones such as tiger's eye, iron eye (or hematoid jasper), ox's or bull's eye, hawk's eye, cat's eye, labradorite, obsidians , galaxite, for the main...
- At the full moon for stones such as moonstone, starstone, amethyst and almost all colored stones which risk losing their shine in the zenith sun.
- However, for stones in the second category, they can also be recharged in the sun, but on the other hand they should only be exposed to the light of the sun in the morning and at the end of the day so as not to weaken the mineral and to protect it. cause the colors to lose their vibrancy.
- Recharging for 3 days in the ground at the foot of the tree of your choice can be a good thing for your stones, which will thank you even more.
The creation of a crystal point mandala, pointing towards the center, lined with generating columns (at least 3 columns), with the minerals to recharge in its center is also a good thing.
- Another possibility is recharging either on a quartz cluster, on a rock crystal or amethyst druse or even in a rock crystal or amethyst geode.
- Or even recharging and not least, directly to Earth.

- It is also possible to recharge and increase the power and vibrational frequency of your minerals by placing them in a Tibetan singing bowl.
- Or in the hollow of a Steel-Drum if you have one to give a vibrational and energetic shower to your minerals.

- You can also cleanse and recharge your minerals using various waves of form such as: Flower of life, seal of Solomon, star of David, seed of life etc., or by using the principle of fumigation with incense or sage white, or even Palo Santo (Shamans’ wood).

How to properly program your minerals?
The programming is very simple:
In fact, you just need to say this little formula out loud while holding the mineral you want to program in your hands. “I dedicate this crystal to the greater good of all those who come into contact with it.” Then formulate the action specific to the mineral used, that you want it to do for you. For example for Labradorite: "I dedicate and ask this crystal to kindly develop the powers and virtues specific to it in order to protect me from negative and harmful waves and energies which could weigh above and around me. I ask you (speaking to labradorite) to erect a shield of defense and protection all around me which will shelter me from all negative and harmful waves, energies, or people in order to protect me from energetic vampirism and preventing me from loading myself like a sponge with all the negative things that people around me could send me consciously or unconsciously. I would point out in passing that such treatment with labradorite can be practiced to create a shield network around its habitat.- The goal of programming is not to give orders to your minerals but rather to make them resonate with you.
- In the same way that you would connect your multimedia devices to your PC after reformatting via Bluetooth mode, you must reconnect your minerals with yourself via reprogramming.
