Ways to Use Crystals

witchtips:

From Crystal Cure

Put them around your home!

  • Place a protective stone, such as black onyx, hematite, or
    black obsidian, outside by your front door to prevent negative energies,
    including burglars, from entering your home.
  • Place a rose quartz on a table or shelf in a frequently
    used room, such as a living room, family room, or den, to fill your home
    with love and harmony.
  • Decorate with seasonal stone colors.

Put them in your car!

  • Placing a golden tiger-eye in your car will help to protect
    you and your car against accidents.  Place the stone in a secure place
    where it will not roll around or get lost.  I suggest wrapping it in
    wire, attaching it to a cord or chain, and then hanging it from the
    rearview mirror.

Bring them to work!

  • Place a quartz cluster or purple fluorite cluster next to your computer to help protect you from its electromagnetic field.
  • Place a smoky quartz on your desk or in your work space
    to protect yourself against the stress and frustration of your coworkers
    or clients.
  • Keep a rose quartz or amethyst with you.  When work is stressful, hold it in your hand or rub it with your fingers.

Bring them with you on your next vacation or business trip!

  • Carry an aquamarine or moonstone with you for protection while traveling.

Clear the air!

  • To disperse negative energy, use a black or dark stone, such
    as onyx, obsidian, tourmaline, jet, apache tear, smoky quartz, or
    hematite.  These stones, when placed about a room, home, or other area,
    work as environmental cleansers that purify the area and protect it from
    negative energies.

Fight pain!

  • Lapis, malachite, and bloodstone are good pain relievers.  
    Place them on the affected body part or area of the body until the pain
    lessens.
  • Tape a carnelian to your lower abdomen to relieve the pain of menstrual cramps.
  • For a headache, place an amethyst, amber, or turquoise
    stone on your forehead, or, if you have multiple stones, place them
    around your head.
  • In the case of a migraine, lapis has been used since the time of the ancient Egyptians, if not longer.

Get a good night’s sleep!

  • Place an azurite, amethyst, or sugilite on your forehead or under your pillow to increase your dreams.
  • A garnet or amethyst under your pillow will help you to remember your dreams.
  • A black tourmaline, smoky quartz, or amethyst will chase away any nightmares.
  • Can’t sleep?  Place a rose quartz or amethyst by your bed or under your pillow to combat insomnia.

Get in control of your emotions!

  • Moonstone, chrysocolla, aventurine, rose quartz, and blue
    lace agate are all stones that help to balance emotions.  You can wear
    them in jewelry, keep them on your person, or take a bath with them.
  • Use a rose quartz for emotional healing.
  • Aquamarine, aventurine, moonstone, rhodonite, and rose
    quartz are calming stones.  Lie down and place one over your heart, or
    bathe with them, or massage yourself with them.
  • To relieve stress, worry, fear, and anxiety, use one of
    the following: aventurine, black tourmaline, black onyx, lapis,
    sodalite, chrysocolla, rose quartz, citrine, or snowflake obsidian.  Use
    one as a “worry stone”.  A worry stone is a stone that you keep with
    you, and whenever you feel worried, stressed, or anxious, you take it
    out and rub it with your fingers.  You can also wear it in jewelry,
    bathe with it, or massage with it.  
  • For depression, use amber, smoky quartz or citrine in any of the aforementioned ways.
  • To help control anger, keep a red garnet, amethyst,
    snowflake obsidian, or sodalite with you.  Take it out, hold it, and rub
    it whenever you feel the need.

Increase your brain power!

  • Use citrine, fluorite, lapis, pyrite, or sodalite to stimulate the intellect.
  • For focusing thoughts and concentration, use citrine, hematite, lapis, black tourmaline, or fluorite.
  • To bring mental clarity, use sapphire, peridot, or gold (Imperial) topaz.
  • To increase memory, use citrine, amber, black tourmaline, hematite, or fluorite.
  • Use amethyst, bloodstone, hematite, or lapis to relieve mental stress.
  • For help with problem-solving, use green tourmaline, or citrine.
  • To help with decision-making, use azurite, fluorite, or sodalite.
  • To use any of these “thinking” stones, wear them as earrings or a pendant, or place them on your desk or workspace.

Spark your creativity!

  • Carry or wear an amazonite, azurite, carnelian, chrysocolla, or citrine to get your creativity flowing.

Improve your communication skills!

  • Sodalite, sapphire, aquamarine, blue topaz, and chrysocolla
    are all great stones for communication.  Use them to bring
    self-confidence when public speaking, to help you to speak up for
    yourself, to be able to explain things in an easy to understand way, to
    overcome shyness, to be able to speak more clearly and freely , to be
    able to express yourself better emotionally, and to improve your
    relationships by keeping communication lines open.  These stones work
    best when worn as a pendant that hangs close to the throat, but they can
    also be worn as earrings, or held, or carried in your pocket.

Strengthen your intuition!

  • To do this, hold a moonstone, chrysocolla, or amazonite to your third eye (brow).

Meditate!

  • Meditation crystals can be held, placed on the third eye, or
    placed before you as a visual focal point.  These crystals include:
    clear quartz, amethyst, celestite, apophyllite, charoite, sugilite,
    azurite, labradorite, and yellow calcite.
  • To get in touch with your spirituality, use amethyst or charoite.
  • To gain wisdom, use amethyst, charoite, lapis, sodalite, or sugilite.
  • To ground yourself (bring yourself back to Earth) after
    meditating, hold a grounding stone such as, smoky quartz, black
    obsidian, snowflake obsidian, black onyx, hematite, or jet.

Feel better about yourself!

  • To increase your self-confidence and feelings of self-worth,
    use azurite, chrysocolla, aquamarine, ruby, moonstone, or rose quartz.
  • To raise your self-esteem, use hematite or rose quartz.
  • To improve your self-image, use moonstone, rose quartz, or pink kunzite.
  • To learn to love yourself, use rose quartz, rhodochrosite, or pink kunzite.
  • All of these stones can be held, worn, or carried.

Spread the love!

Rose quartz is THE love stone.  Use it to attract love; to
increase romance; to strengthen love between friends, lovers, and family
members; to make a friendship blossom; to mend a broken heart; and to
keep any relationship balanced, peaceful, and loving.  No matter what
the situation, if it has to do with love, rose quartz is the stone that
does it all.  
But there are, of course, other stones of love.

 Here are just a few examples:

  • To attract love, use magnetite or a tantric twin.  A tantric
    twin (also called a soulmate stone) is a stone in which two crystals,
    such as clear quartz, amethyst, or citrine, of about the same size are
    joined together side by side.
  • To heal the heart, place pink agate, pink kunzite, or
    pink tourmaline over the heart, or wear as a pendant that hangs close to
    the heart.
  • To balance relationships, use peridot or rhodonite.
  • To increase or enhance loving feelings, use emerald, ruby, garnet, or diamond.

Love stones can be worn, carried, held, or bathed with.  Place
them throughout a room or home to create a more loving atmosphere.  Put
one next to your bed to increase romance and intimacy.

Add some spice to your sex life!

  • Use carnelian, garnet, or red tiger-eye to increase passion, sensuality, and eroticism.
  • To increase sexual energy and stamina, use carnelian, bloodstone, ruby, red garnet, or pink tourmaline.
  • Use carnelian to stimulate sexuality.
  • Use red jasper to prolong sexual pleasure.
  • Pink tourmaline will release inhibitions.
  • For lack of libido, use fluorite or red garnet.
  • Place them next to, on, or around the bed, or wear them as jewelry.

Bring abundance, prosperity, wealth, and success into your life!

  • For prosperity, place a citrine in the “wealth corner” of your
    home.  This is the corner to the left of and furthest away from the
    front door.  If this is where your bathroom is, do not put the stone in
    there, otherwise any wealth that you acquire will go right down the
    toilet!
  • Wealth comes in many forms other than money and material
    things.  Being surrounded by a loving family can make someone feel
    wealthy.  To bring wealth of any kind, wear or carry green aventurine,
    peridot, bloodstone, emerald, jade, or pyrite (fool’s gold).
  • Keep a green aventurine in your wallet or purse to make your money multiply.

Bring good luck!

  • Wear or carry a green aventurine or golden tiger-eye with you.
  • Bring a green aventurine with you to the casino.  Wear it
    in a pouch around your neck, keep it in your pocket, or hold it while
    you are playing.

[IMPROVED] watch Prince of Tennis without being confused by the plot

nuisancehelicopter:

AND WITH THE LEAST AMOUNT OF FILLERS

The thing with tenipuri is that the manga and the anime/OVAs should be treated as 2 different entities. The two media are just too different, even if the manga was the original. Many scenes from the manga were totally removed/replaced in the anime and a ton of fillers and plot points were added instead. it is heartbreaking lol

There should not have been a problem with this. However, the Nationals arc (finale of prince of tennis) was made to be somewhat faithful to both the anime and the manga. This causes a bit of confusion to those who watched the anime only, esp new fans.

Actually you can always Watch/read prince of tennis in any way you want. The best way is to just read the manga from beginning to end. Or watch the anime from beginning to end. 

However it has come to my attention that a lot of new fans give up watching tenipuri because of the pesky fillers and the overall confusing plot brought upon by the anime, the movies and the OVAs. sad 2000′s animation too

So on a whim.. i made a guide which can probably help new viewers who prefer watching the anime understand the story more.

START

1. read prince of tennis manga ch 000 “Legend of the Samurai”

2. watch from episode 1 to ep 28

3. read pot manga ch 50

  • so that you can see tezuka play for the first time  they just mentioned this match in the anime

4. watch ep 29 to ep 72

  • note: tezuka goes to germany eps 73-75
  • in manga he goes to kyushu, not germany

5. Optional: Watch josei shonan arc (anime only)  ep 76-85

6. Watch PoT 1st movie Tale of Two Samurai

7. Watch ep 86 to 90 (fun filler arc)

8 Optional: Read PoT ch. 162-165 for manga-only seigaku vs saitama-midoriyama jr high

9. Watch eps 90-101 (rokkaku arc)

10. Read PoT manga starting from ch 184-237 (rikkaidai arc)

  • chapter 184  ties nicely with ep 101
  • we want you to see the correct and proper version of the rikkaidai arc

11. Optional: Watch the anime version or the rikkaidai arc (ep 102-128)

  • compare it with the manga

  • Junior Invitational Training Camp Arc 136-146
  • USA vs Japan 147-160

13. Watch the OVA called Atobe’s gift

14. In preparation for Nationals arc, choose between these two:

  • Choice 1: Continue reading the manga from chapter 238-253
        
    • we recommend this
    • ch 238-239 is Nationals OVA 7
    • ch 240 is Nationals OVA 5
    • ch 242 is where Nationals OVA 8 was based from (not really similar)
    • ch 245-247 is scattered among the OVAs
    • ch 253 is  Nationals OVA 1
  • Choice 2: Watch the anime from ep 161-176 and Nationals OVA 
    • 161-176 is ryoma drama and the last series o seigaku ranking matches
    • Nationals OVA 1 kinda reconciles the differences between the anime and manga 

15. watch all the Nationals OVA 2 – 26

This is potentially life saving information everyone should know.

No you guys this post helped me find my cat. He was missing for almost a month and I’ve had him for over 12 years. After seeing this I put his favorite blanket he always slept on outside hoping he would smell mine or his scent and he was back the next fucking day asleep on it.

When my cat got out, we called and called for him, and then, later that night, I remembered similar advice to this, and so put his little scratching pad, which he adores, on the front porch. Not even half an hour later, I heard a thump, opened the door, and there was his big butt, meowing at me.

Important and vital

I don’t care that I reblogged this today I’m reblogging it again

awwwww babies ;_; i hope everyone’s pets come home safe.

I thought this was well known…

Do this four times repeatedly and you’ll be out. But how does it work? There’s some real brain science behind it.

We’re trying this tonight!

It’s about time someone got around to uncovering all the cheat codes for this “human being” software. It’s only been out for like 10,000 years.

?????????????

I’ve used this technique for about a year, and I can safely say that it has efficiently transformed my sleeping habits from several hours of struggle to fall asleep, to passing out in a matter of minutes.

It’s a form of Alexander Technique. It’s a technique that was designed for actors to keep their body in ready working condition and give it the best way to perform. This is the method used to calm, and center the body. Once the body is at that point it can perform anything you want it to.

Reblogging for later reference after I tried it earlier today to try to calm down. It actually does help a lot, not just for sleep but if you have problems with anxiety.

My default mental setting is “vibrating intensely in the background.” After doing this, I felt noticeably calm and relaxed – I wasn’t as fixated on my breathing, I wasn’t tense, my movements weren’t jerky and I didn’t feel like I had to be as tense as possible to be under control. 10/10 would recommend.

me gonna try it

dont wanna reblog but insomnia is a bitch for some ppl so heres for my mutuals having trouble sleeping.
