Crystal Consecration Ritual
Crystal Consecration Ritual
Perform the following ritual on a night of the Full Moon to cleanse a crystal of negative influences and to charge it with healing power.
Begin by lighting two white altar candles (one on each side of the altar). Place a small [glass or ceramic] bowl or cup of fresh rainwater (or melted snow, or tapwater, or spring water will do as well) and a dish of sand, soil, or salt on the altar.
In the center of the altar, place a censer (or use stick incense) containing any of the following incenses: frankincense, myrrh, nutmeg, patchouli, rose, saffron, or sandalwood.
Take the crystal in your right hand and pass it through the smoke of the incense as you say:
"By the power of the Goddess
And by the ancient and mystical element of Air
I consecrate and dedicate this crystal
as a magickal tool of healing."
Gently place the crystal in the dish of sand, soil, or salt, and say:
"By the power of the Mother
And by the ancient and mystical element of Earth
I consecrate and dedicate this crystal
as a magickal tool of healing."
Sprinkle a few drops of water on the crystal, and say:
"By the power of the Universe
And by the ancient and mystical element of Water
I consecrate and dedicate this crystal
as a magickal tool of healing."
Once again, take the crystal in your right hand. Move it in a sunwise circle around the flame of each candle as you say:
"By the power of Love
And by the ancient and mystical element of Fire
I consecrate and dedicate this crystal
as a magickal tool of healing.
May this crystal stone of power
work for my good
and for the good of all.
So mote it be."
After the consecration ritual has been performed, cup the crystal between your hands and allow it to harmonize with your aura and spiritual consciousness. Breathe gently upon the crystal as you direct your thoughts and intentions into it. The charged crystal will respond to the energy of your will. [Before and as you program it, you may also wish to imagine/sense/visualize white light radiating from the crystal's core, growing stronger, and spreading out in waves of light, charging and filling the crystal completely;then you can also breathe gently your desires and programming into it. You can also do this visualization on you, wherein white light radiates from your center and charges you with energy, purity and protection.]
