I would clean it in clear running water, then hold it between my palms and

say a cleansing mantra I use, a prayer or invocation would be fine, whatever

you like.

 

Then I 'd put it on the altar, on a special plate I have, next to some

sparkly happy stones, and light a candle behind it so it can get used to

shining again. Depending on the size, I might lay it on a cluster as

clusters are always cleaning themselves & whatever else's on them.

 

A box in a storage unit isn't a happy place to be, it may just need some

appreciation.

Hi,

That's certainly a viable thing to tell it - I use a " souped-up " version

of Dael Walker's Light Invocation " to clear them:

" I invoke the Light of the Christ within.

I am a clear and perfect channel of Love and Light

Light is my Guide. "

... said three times.

I use clear quartz clusters usually, as clarity is my goal.

Herkimers are made to be happy - so it should respond. I keep three large

ones at my bedside and now I can remember many dreams - and I used to

remember none at all.

Let me know how it goes.

Hi Evelyn,

 

Thank you SO much - will do as you say - not sure what I should say

to it in my hands - but will just let it flow - tell it that it is a

beautiful creation - capable of wonderous works (???); then place on

cluster - clear or amythest best? Or does it not matter?

 

thank you very much - cannot have this lovely being feeling so

unhappy!!!!

 

HUGS!

Hi Evelyn,

 

Got out all the clusters & non-faceted stones for a bath. Distinctly

heard " USE PURIFIED WATER ON HERKS - ESP THAT ONE " (one who was

unhappy - we will put unhappiness in past tense).

 

I have 3 herks - the one (largest) that was unhappy, a medium sized

one - clear as a diamomd, with just a litle strand of something dark

in one are (mineral, I presume - pyrite?) & a smaller one - the small

one just makes me smile to look at it. it definately has " 3 "

vibration; the medium clear one has materialistic vibration (what is

it doing with me, i do not know - GORGEOUS, but I'm not very

materialistic)

 

Anyway, as I approached sink to bathe these kids, heard giggling -

just like a happy little child (small one, I presume -there are no

children here - the Sheltie kids don't giggle - they're " zonked "

from their R1 attunements today - VBG!) - but anyway...

 

I lovingly bathed them, dried them, " chatted " a bit & told them to

sun a bit in the window. Promised them I would not store them away

again... (Dogs are looking at me during this like I'm crazy... lol!)

 

Told large one that I would appreciate it releasing unhappiness & we

will try to make it happy.

 

Then felt I should take L-shaped one (powerful - was gift from

minister / teacher / healer), hold it like " gun " & point through

happy one into previously unhappy one. (Make sense?)

 

So I did & stated intention to pass happiness into larger stone.

 

We will see what happens.

 

I love the invocation thank you so much for sharing it with me. Will

do this after they " tan " for a bit in the window (VBG).

 

And certainly will keep you posted on this little gem's progress...

 

HUGS,

 

Jan

 

PS - also felt I should draw reiki symbol in palms using " l-shaped "

stone - do any of you folks do this?

I have recently come to love Herkimer diamonds. Purchased four about a

month ago and they brought much laughter and light to me as I sit and work

in my office. I had a client here a couple of weeks ago and while listening

to her, one of my diamonds was clearly telling me I needed to gift this

client with the diamond that was speaking. The diamond was telling me that

being with the client at this time was part of 'her' journey and so, I

gifted the client with the Herkimer.

 

This past week I was writing a letter, a real old-fashioned hand written

letter, to a close friend of mine who travels and works in less than

favorable conditions in war-torn countries. As I was sitting writing him

and thinking of what stone of protection I could send him in this particular

letter, I looked over at my stones and the Herkimer started shimmering in

the light whereas the other two appeared to be in hiding. I asked the

shimmering Herkimer to share with me what it was wanting to say and it told

me that it was wanting to volunteer to be sent to this friend of mine. It

went on to say that it knew it was a 'dangerous mission' to undertake and

that there was a chance it might not even make it to its destination but

that it felt like it was the right thing to do, what it was meant to do

right now... and so I honored the Herkimer's request, cleansed it, infused

it with Reiki energy, wrapped it in a small piece of silk and sent it inside

the letter. I can't even begin to describe what I felt through the moments

of this experience nor do I necessarily want to put words to the experience.

I'm simply in awe of the wisdom and power, strength and courage, clarity and

joy these little crystals offer the world.

Hi Jennifer,

 

Thank you so much for sharing that heart-warming story!

 

Meaning abusolutely NO disrespect to anyone here, I thought I

had " lost it " when I heard the smallest one giggle -like a small

child giggling with delight...

 

Very much looking forward to this whole saga unfolding further. (VBG!)

 

The herks are now finished " sunning " in the window sill & perched in

positions I felt they should occupy on the large clear cluster.

 

I trust they are happier now...

 

Many thanks again to those of you who have shared your wisdom on this

topic - when I say I'm a " newbie " I don't mean just to the list - lol!
