Crystals Communication and Mining
by Skye Stephenson, PhD
Due to the gravity of the oil spill situation in the Gulf of Mexico, I decided this month to share with you a channeled communication I received four years ago. At the time, I did not understand the significance of this information. Now it seems, as they say, “crystal clear”.
Cyclically you humans
Begin to assess the power of crystals;
Cyclically you do this
Using tools that seem superior in your time and place.
Now unfortunately these tools are predominately technical
Any personal connections to the rocks and crystals are forgotten
As you rip them from the Earth
As you rip up Mother Earth as well -
Never thanking her
For her great gifts;
Never thanking the rocks and crystals
For their great service to humanity.
Because of this your civilization
Could soon fall and collapse
Because the crystals and the Earth are crying
From the abuse you’ve heaped upon them.
It is not so hard to thank them
And treat them gently and kindly,
Recognizing the kind of treasures that they are
One of God’s greatest gifts to humanity.
How do you do this specifically?
You asked me this, my friend;
It is quite simple,
It is not hard.
A few simple rules suffice.
Here they are all written down
Though they are known by many already
On this place you call the Earth.
First and foremost you must recognize
The respect and dignity with which they must be treated
By doing that they will have more power
And so will you my friend.
Secondly, and more specifically, they need a bit of ceremony and pomp;
Before you open up a mine,
Before you dig into their sacred ground,
Pray and dance for the Earth spirits
Thank and ask the sky gods for their love and support
Tell the rain and storm clouds why you are digging deep
Ask the sun and moon and stars to understand
Why you need some of these celestial treasures that now reside
On this place you humans you call Earth.
Now after the ritual opening
After the sacrifices and the feast
Make sure that every morning
Before the mineral work begins
A simple prayer is said
In a moment of silence before the work begins
This simple prayer could be the following
In any language that you feel at ease:
Dear Mother Earth and Mother stars
Dear river and trees
Dear life below and above
We ask your permission to take
Our dear brothers and sisters,
These beloved minerals and crystals
From their home in the Earth
To be of service to humankind.
We will treat them with respect and dignity
To the best of our abilities
We thank them for their sacrifice
We offer three copper coins
As a symbolic payment to them
To let us enter their sacred domains
Thank you forces of nature
Thank you spirits that be
We will enter with reverence and love
A song in our hearts and gratitude on our lips.
(Any ending that might please you)
And every day put three coins down
Before the work begins
With thirteen drum beats
As sun rises in the morning
Do this rain and shine,
Winter and summer,
Where ever you are mining,
Whatever you are doing
Then at the equinoxes,
When the Earth is most at balance and at ease
Offer a feast to all who work there –
To Mother Earth and its crystal kings.
This feast can be whatever you wish it to be
But on those sacred days
Don’t do any work
Instead pray for balance and harmony on all the Earth.
When the Earth’s treasures are relentlessly hauled to surface
A few drops of blessed water upon the piles every evening
When the sun goes down
Are indicated and ideal.
These simple precepts followed
By all who practice mining and their kind,
Will go so far in helping relieve negative energies that can be released
When miners dig into the bowels of Mother Earth.
For now to conclude a crucial key
Is that when any mining work is done
It must be left better
Than it was before
And I’m not talking only about the surface
I’m talking about the deep guts as well;
Those empty gaping spaces left within
Need to be balanced to restore some semblance of harmony in that sector of the Earth.
I’m not taking of bulldozing lots of Earth within
I’m telling you that there is a secret
Known by many sacred teachings and traditions
Of achieving this balance in the quiet empty spaces within the Earth.
For the Earth is generous and kind,
And likes to share of its treasures and its wealth
To favored humans and other life beings
And bring happiness and progress to Earth.
But progress is not more and more
It is about realizing we are all connected
In a fragile web of life that can be cut and broken
When any part gets out of line.
Diffuse this information widely if you must
Let them know there should be a code of mining that upholds the sacred trust
That humans respect the Earth
So that Earth can then respect you humans
Because if you can’t recognize simple life,
If you can’t recognize that spark of being in a shiny pebble or the green leafy tree
Then how my dear friend, I ask you with all honesty
Will you ever recognize the sanctity of your dear human brother who you are fighting out there?
I hope that by next month, when my next column is submitted, the oil mine in the Gulf of Mexico is no longer hemorrhaging its black blood into the ocean blue. Whatever your own beliefs and ways of shifting energy may be, please use them to focus with clear and deep intent upon healing the ocean bed around the oil spill at this critical time.
