Color Healing finale

[Guest guest]

We have come ( at last ) to the end of the section on color, for now

anyway. I suppose I could do pages on brown and gray and so on but

think that the spectrum and black and white will do for now. We will go

back and expand the properties of some of the stones later.

 

We will conclude with a brief wrap-up of some color healing methods

in general not necessarily just those that use crystals .

I recommend frequent exposure to the whole spectrum of pure colors that

way you are more likely to keep in a more balanced condition .

Meditation on the rainbow and rainbow colors is of itself a potentially

valuable experience . I like the practice of simply keeping an eye out

for rainbows .

 

When working with colored stones you may hold them, gaze upon them ,

lay them on a chakra or other place of need , meditate with them , make

gem elixirs and use any method of working with the crystals that feels

appropriate to you. You do have at least one rainbow included quartz

crystal don't you? Rainbow crystals are high on the essentials list in

my opinion.

 

Pay attention to the colors that attract you and take notice of any

colors that you strongly dislike as well. If it is a muddy color you

dislike then its probably just that you dislike an inharmonious shade .

Sometimes the colors you dislike can indicate areas where you are

rejecting aspects of your personality or where there are blockages .

 

For specific needs one can select a particular hue or a family of

colors to work with using some of the information from the sections on

individual hues or on chakras .

Some possible ways of combining colors for healing work are 1. Rainbow

sets 2. complements colors opposite each other on the color wheel (red

and green , blue and orange , violet and yellow, usually when using

these one shade dominates and the other is used as an accent Equal

weight and intensity of complementary colors can really shake up blocks

(and hurt the eyes too) 3. analogous, colors next to each other on the

color wheel and 4. combinations like Red, blue, yellow , or orange,

green ,violet that are equidistant from each other are common

combinations. People also often choose to work with sets of colors

associated with the elements . or with color sets significant in a

culture or tradition.

 

There are many systems of color healing color is of itself a vital

for healing the aura, the physical body and for deepening meditation

and to promote specific effects in the energy field. Color and

Spiritual light is used for healing the aura and the physical body,

for deepening meditation and to promote specific effects in the energy

field here are a few of the methods used for this work.

 

Color can be gazed at, You can get a swatch of a color to look at it or

use objects of that color. Just walking in nature and looking at flowers

is one way to bring in color .

Colored glass can be lit from behind or the side in a way that

intensifies the color .

Use a tool like a prism or an old compact disk to see the color and

focus on it .

You can place a tile of a color as wall paper on your computer or use

a mandala of all the colors or where the one you want to work with

predominates .

 

You can wrap yourself in a color using cloth yardage, cotton and silk

seem to be the preferred fabrics. You can wrap a specific area or your

entire body. Choose clothing in the colors that will alleviate a

condition or effect your mood and mind in accord with your needs .

Cloth draped over a sunny window can also provide a color treatment as

the light shines on you.

 

You can visualize or imagine the color you need . Imagine yourself

bathed in the colors you choose. Imagine a radiant colored light that

surrounds and permeates your body.

Imagine yourself breathing in colors with each breath imagine the color

being breathed into your body by every pore and going to where needed .

 

As you stand or lie down comfortably imagine drawing up the color you

need from the Earth up through your feet and tailbone and spreading

throughout your body and then out through your crown and then flowing

like a fountain down outside your body and then returning up your feet

and spine You can run this color fountain until you feel completely in

harmony with that color . You can start with red and then continue

through the spectrum of colors as a chakra healing and toning practice

then end with the brilliant clear white light .

 

Meditating on a color either in your mind or by keeping your attention

focused on something of the color you want to work with can be valuable

.. A more intellectual form of color meditation is to assemble your

thoughts about a given color either just letting the associations flow

or even writing them down.

 

You can beam the color as a shakti ( frequency of spiritual energy) and

run it as energy to where it is needed. This is often done by intending

/allowing the color energy to flow through your body from your crown and

out to where it is needed through the chakras in the palms of your

hands. You can invoke color into your crown or call on angels of color

to work on specific issues .

 

Colored gels or filters in front of a lamp or colored light bulbs can

be used to beam your chosen hue onto your body and into the surrounding

area Some systems of chroma therapy teach that you should not shine

violet light on the face.

 

Colored light can be beamed through crystals using a light box or

light can be visualized and sent by intention amplified by crystals .

 

Food coloring can be used in bath water to give your self a luxurious

color bath. You can color salt or sugar to make a parable easily

dispersed color bath salt perhaps you'd enjoy a color bath combined

with some favorite water proof stones and perhaps some herbs or scented

oils I loved rose colored and aqua colored baths when I had a bathtub

(its on the list of home improvements.) Purple and dark blue should only

be used for a short time ten to twenty minutes at most, as they can be

depressing if overused . Orange is very invigorating and deep clear

greens are very restful.

 

Art can be used in color healing , painting or drawing with the

colors you feel are needed is a valuable and expressive way to integrate

color healing into your life.

Study the artwork of the artist you enjoy and explore the effects that

the artists color choices have on your emotions and sense of well being.

 

There are many different systems of mandala work. Some use specific

colors and symbolic form such as the tattwa and yantra of India and

the Tibetan Mandala or Navaho sand painting or have traditional sets

of color and symbols from a particular cultural tradition . Other

mandala creation uses more intuitive color and selection of forms . You

might enjoy creating your own mandala for color meditations.

 

Light candles in colors that match the purpose you want to work on.

Choose the colors according to any of the color healing systems you

like or use one of the candle magic lists for a referance.

 

Color elixirs are made by placing pure water in colored glass or in

glass wrapped in a transparent or translucent gel or wrapper and

placing them in direct sunlight for several hours in order to have the

color energy tranffered to the water .You can also run a shakti such as

Reiki over the colorered cover to tranfer the color energy to the water

after the water is charged you can keep the water in a dark place until

it is used .
