color healing -lightbox

[Guest guest]

Chroma therapy is healing with colored light. One version of this

combines crystal healing energy with colored light treatment by means of

a crystal light box.

Crystal light boxes have a hole in the center in which a quartz

crystal can be placed over a small light bulb. the light shining

through clear crystals lights up the crystal and projects and

intensifies the colored light and the healing energy of the color and

from the crystal .

Light boxes are used with colored filters or gels.

Sometimes people can find or make their own which use stained glass

for the color filters . The kind of light bulb that is most like

daylight is recommended. Ultra -violet or black light is not recommended

for this purpose . Look for a design that allows you to change the

filters safely and easily. Make sure that it does not overheat .

Some light boxes are mounted on stands in a way that they can can be

tilted or raised and lowered to allow for direction of the light others

are fixed and may be used as a meditation focus rather than being used

to direct light to specific areas.

 

Light box crystals can be flat based, single generator crystals or

clusters. The main requirement for use as a light box crystal is the

ability to reflect light from the base up through the entire crystal.

The base of the crystal must be relatively transparent not opaque,

quartz crystals that have been cleared .The crystal is placed on the

light box over the colored filter in a way that allows the light to

be projected towards the client. As the light shines through the colored

filter it makes the crystal glow with the color of the filter which you

have used.

Crystals with veils and inclusions are often considered preferable to

clear glass-like crystals. It is best if possible to clear a crystal

that is used in a light box before you use it with another color.

Some people like to use one special crystal for all their color healing

work

others will have a different crystal dedicated to each color that they

use.

While specific methods and times for treatment vary from individual it

is best to be start out with short exposures to the colored light 5

minutes may be enough at first, later up to 15 minutes is usually quite

sufficient .

I use light intuitively and have little experience with crystal light

boxes so this chapter

Hansen of the Kindred Spirits study group of Daly City Ca.

There will be several more segments on color and on working with

colored stones
