Crystals to assist with <strong>spirit</strong> <strong>release</strong><br />
JUDY HALL<br />
Spirit Quartz<br />
I’ve been using <strong>crystals</strong> to facilitate <strong>spirit</strong> <strong>release</strong> and soul retrieval <strong>for</strong> over <strong>for</strong>ty<br />
years. Whilst I believe that <strong>spirit</strong> <strong>release</strong> is best carried out by trained specialists,<br />
there are times when healers and other therapists are suddenly confronted with the<br />
need to <strong>release</strong> or retrieve. Or when <strong>release</strong> therapists need a little extra assistance.<br />
This is where <strong>crystals</strong> come in, especially when supported by purpose-made<br />
essences. I find these gentle, compassionate tools invaluable <strong>for</strong> three reasons. The
first is that they protect my own energies, creating an interface at which I can work<br />
safely so I can give all my attention to the work in hand. The crystal stands at the<br />
interface between you, the other person and the entity, creating a barrier so the entity<br />
cannot attach to you after <strong>release</strong>. They also maintain a sacred and energetically<br />
clean space in which to work.<br />
The second reason is that they energetically facilitate <strong>release</strong> and call in<br />
angelic helpers and divine light to move the <strong>spirit</strong> on, facilitating the work. Crystals<br />
can, when needed, provide a ‘home’ <strong>for</strong> a <strong>spirit</strong> or entity until it can be moved on or<br />
returned to whence it came. They act rather like a net to hold anything undesirable<br />
rather than setting it free to settle into some other vulnerable soul. But they also act<br />
as a healer and purifier <strong>for</strong> a soul part that is returning. The third gift is that they<br />
energetically seal the site of an attachment once it has been cleared, purifying and<br />
healing the aura, object or environment so that nothing else can attach.<br />
Spirit attachment definition<br />
To me, <strong>spirit</strong> attachment means that a discarnate <strong>spirit</strong> has entered a living person’s<br />
energy field or is influencing it. It can only occur when an energy field is weak and<br />
depleted, and when someone does not fully inhabit their body and the soul is not<br />
fully present so there is a ‘gap’ or vacuum. It often arises out of momentary loss of<br />
energy containment such as in drink or drug taking, or the effects of anaesthetic,<br />
shock or trauma. It is common in cases of depression or debilitating illnesses like<br />
M.E. But it may also stem back to other lives or deliberate psychic attack. Attachment<br />
can be seen in the eyes, which are blank with ‘no one home’ or ‘someone else’ looks<br />
out from them. The attaching <strong>spirit</strong> usually seeks to experience something it was<br />
addicted to in life or to control someone, it may be simply lost or be malicious.<br />
Attachments are not confined to human beings and may arise from thought <strong>for</strong>ms or<br />
alien sources. It’s not always external attachment although it will feel like it is. It may be<br />
projection/repressed qualities/obsessive thoughts manifesting apparently<br />
externally. Spirit may also be attached to an object rather than a person. It is sensible<br />
to bear in mind that not all attaching <strong>spirit</strong>s have left their physical body. The living<br />
can ‘possess’ or overly influence the living. Attachments can arise from the thoughts<br />
and feelings of others who try to influence or control or who try to clutch onto your<br />
strength – a very common experience <strong>for</strong> healers, readers and counsellors. It’s as<br />
though they have their hooks into you.
[If you think this might have occurred check out your aura: a Selenite, raw Charoite<br />
or Flint ‘comb through’ about a foot out from the physical body will clear superficial<br />
hooks from the aura and clear the way <strong>for</strong> a more comprehensive <strong>release</strong> if needed].<br />
Crystal <strong>spirit</strong> <strong>release</strong> in ancient times<br />
People tend to regard <strong>spirit</strong> <strong>release</strong> as comparatively new but the earliest <strong>spirit</strong><br />
<strong>release</strong>s I have researched occur in Egypt and Mesopotamia where troublesome<br />
<strong>spirit</strong>s were believe to interfere in people’s lives, causing havoc. Crystals were part of<br />
the tool box <strong>for</strong> dealing with them. People commonly wrote letters to a deceased<br />
person asking them to desist and wore crystal amulets to support that call and to<br />
protect themselves. A Mesopotamian banishing ritual at least five thousand years old<br />
uses Selenite as once the <strong>spirit</strong> causing the mis<strong>for</strong>tune has been expelled and<br />
returned to the otherworld, something has to be put in its place. Selenite held ‘the<br />
divine light of the gods’ and filled the vacuum so that nothing else could attach.<br />
In Mesopotamia, each crystal had its own god who could inhabit and become<br />
the crystal in a way that we don’t fully grasp today because we have lost our<br />
understanding of ‘correspondence’ (roughly translated ‘as above, so below’ 1). So, <strong>for</strong><br />
instance, Lapis Lazuli was Venus, Carnelian Ninlil (a goddess of destiny) and so on.<br />
In those days illness was believed to be caused by attacking entities and there is a<br />
fascinating contemporary account of a priest healing a sick man. The ritual, which<br />
uses both crystal and sound therapy, constructs a net in which to ‘catch’ the invading<br />
<strong>spirit</strong> with the assistance of gods who become embodied in the magical tools:<br />
The gypsum [Selenite] and bitumen which they smear on the door of the sick<br />
man. The gypsum is Ninurta [Saturn, one of the ‘good guys’ in<br />
Mesopotamian mythology]. The bitumen is Asakku [a demon god]. Ninurta<br />
pursues Asakku [i.e. good chases out the evil <strong>spirit</strong>].<br />
The circle of flour which surrounds the bed of the sick man [is] Lugulgirra<br />
and Meslamtaea [other gods]<br />
The three heaps of flour which they cast down [are] Anu, Enil and Ea<br />
The design which they draw in front of the bed. That is a net any traps Any<br />
Evil.<br />
1 This notion is covered in detail in one of my academic essays which is to be found on<br />
the Astrozero website and in my MA dissertation which is on www.judyhall.co.uk.
The drum and cymbals which are resplendent at the head of the sick man.<br />
The drum is Anu. The cymbals are Enlil.<br />
The standards which are set up at the head of the sick man. They are Sibitti,<br />
the great gods, sons of Ishara.<br />
The scapegoat which is placed at the head of the sick man: Ninamaskuga,<br />
Enlil’s shepherd.<br />
The censor and torch placed in the house of the sick man: The censor is Kusu.<br />
The torch is Nusku. 2<br />
Un<strong>for</strong>tunately the tablet breaks off there so we don’t have a complete description of<br />
the ritual but we do know that it describes a battle between ‘good’ and ‘evil’ gods <strong>for</strong><br />
the soul of the sick man. It is presumed that the invading <strong>spirit</strong> is then sent into the<br />
‘scapegoat’ waiting at the head of the sick man but in other descriptions it is<br />
captured in ‘a stone’.<br />
Part of Mesopotamian and Egyptian ‘closing rituals’ after detaching entities<br />
was to make a necklace out of Carnelian, Lazulite or Lapis Lazuli, Serpentine,<br />
‘spotted stone’, ‘very spotted stone’, shiny silex, breccia and ‘little breccia’ (Jasper)<br />
beads. This was worn around the neck <strong>for</strong> seven days. Only some of these <strong>crystals</strong><br />
can be identified, but those that do still work today.<br />
Using <strong>crystals</strong><br />
Selenite wands have been used since time immemorial<br />
Appropriate, cleansed (see below) <strong>crystals</strong> can either be put directly onto the body,<br />
spiralled over the chakras or placed in a grid around the room, in the environment or<br />
around the physical body. They work well in the aura about a foot out from the<br />
physical body as that is where many of the more subtle attachments occur. Sweeping<br />

Babylonia Scholars Clarendon press, Ox<strong>for</strong>d 1986 p.173ff
the whole aura with an appropriate crystal often clears minor attachments without<br />
needing to know the full story and will send a <strong>spirit</strong> to the light, dissolve a thought<br />
<strong>for</strong>m or detach undue influence. A crystal with a point will pull out energies when<br />
pointed away from the body, and draw in light when pointed towards it.<br />
Crystals work best when they have been dedicated to their task and when<br />
their energies have been cleansed. They quickly pick up negative vibes and need to<br />
be cleansed be<strong>for</strong>e and after <strong>spirit</strong> <strong>release</strong> work or healing. I always ask that a crystal<br />
will work <strong>for</strong> the highest good of all and that a <strong>spirit</strong> or an entity will be returned to<br />
its rightful and appropriate place in whatever dimension or timeframe that may be.<br />
To cleanse <strong>crystals</strong>, tumbled stones and Quartz points can be run under the<br />
tap and placed in the sun to re-energise but delicate or friable <strong>crystals</strong> are best placed<br />
in brown rice overnight. Purpose made crystal cleansers are extremely useful as they<br />
cleanse immediately so the crystal can be reused again and again. Petaltone<br />
Clear2Light or Crystal Balance Crystal Cleanse are invaluable as a few drops<br />
instantly cleanses a crystal and Crystal Recharge rapidly re-energises it. Petaltone Zl4<br />
clears to fourteen etheric levels. I couldn’t work without a combination of <strong>crystals</strong><br />
and essences.<br />
Keeping your energies high and your space safe<br />
Crystals are excellent <strong>for</strong> protecting your energy when working. I always wear a<br />
Labradorite over my higher heart chakra (above the thymus) to screen energies. It<br />
allows me to be psychically aware of what is going on with a client but not to get<br />
sucked into the energy. Healer’s Gold works in the same way to create an interface at<br />
which I can work. Yellow Labradorite or Apophyllite helps you to be more<br />
psychically aware of subtle energies and to communicate with <strong>spirit</strong>.
Labradorite, the perfect energy filtration tool: photo: Jeni Campbell<br />
If you find that you get depleted when working with a client, or have a<br />
constant ache under your left armpit, then you need to pay attention to your spleen<br />
chakra. This is where the energy vampires get to you. They hook in and suck out<br />
your energy. Fortunately a Green Aventurine, Fluorite or Jade over your spleen<br />
chakra (under your left armpit, hand’s breadth down) protects you from taking on<br />
‘stuff’ from your clients. Rotate it around that area it to remove existing ‘hooks’ and<br />
energy drains as well. If you then get a pain under the right armpit, this is the result<br />
of an attacking energy vampire becoming angry at having its power source cut off.<br />
Tape a piece of Gaspeite, Tugtupite or Bloodstone over the site and leave in place <strong>for</strong><br />
several days until the message is received that you will not be giving away any more<br />
of your energy. (This works well <strong>for</strong> energy vampires who are still among the living<br />
as well!).
Your working space can be protected by creating a grid with Black<br />
Tourmaline, Smoky Quartz, Labradorite or Selenite. Three stones arranged in a<br />
triangle work well. If you put a few drops of Petaltone Zl4 on the stones, the energies<br />
are cleansed to very high levels and transmute anything that is <strong>release</strong>d within the<br />
space. It then maintains the clean, safe space <strong>for</strong> several months. This works well <strong>for</strong><br />
moving on entities trapped in an particular environment as do other grids. (See my<br />
Good Vibrations: space clearing, psychic protection and Energy Enhancement). I also find a<br />
few drops of Petaltone Astral Clear on a clear Quartz point invaluable <strong>for</strong> moving on<br />
entities that are attached to a place and which are intractable and will not<br />
communicate. Program the crystal to send the <strong>spirit</strong> to the light or from whence it<br />
came, place it in the room and leave it overnight.<br />
Many of the <strong>crystals</strong> that work best <strong>for</strong> <strong>spirit</strong> <strong>release</strong> are new high vibration<br />
stones (see The Crystal Bible, vols 1, 2, 3 or 101 Power Crystals <strong>for</strong> the very latest<br />
stones). To work with high vibration stones and grids you need to have cleared,<br />
purified and reattuned your energy field and opened the higher chakras. If you<br />
haven’t done so, the stones will clear things out in the quickest and most catalytic<br />
way. Flint or Angels Wing Calcite ‘combed’ over the aura and chakras assists in<br />
preparatory clearing as does Petaltone Zl4 followed with Petaltone Power Shield or<br />
Crystal Balance Violet Flame.<br />
Crystal Tools<br />
My favourite soul retrieval crystal tools:<br />
Brandenberg: The one crystal I wouldn’t be without! Each crystal holds the essence<br />
of Clear, Smoky and Amethyst whether or not you can see the individual colours in<br />
the crystal, which usually has phantoms and bubbles that act like a ladder to higher<br />
consciousness. This the perfect tool <strong>for</strong> <strong>spirit</strong> <strong>release</strong> and soul retrieval. It also takes<br />
you back to the pure soul blueprint that existed be<strong>for</strong>e karmic encrustrations or<br />
family crud began to adhere. It heals the ancestral line, the personal or collective<br />
karmic lines, rejigs the etheric blueprint and restores the soul to perfection. If a<br />
Brandenberg, which comes from Namibia, isn’t available then any Amethyst-Smoky<br />
Quartz combination will work but Brandenberg attains the highest vibrations.
Smoky Amethyst Brandenberg<br />
Smoky or Amethyst Spirit Quartz: Tiny drusy <strong>crystals</strong> cover a stone core in this<br />
amazing <strong>for</strong>mation. I find it invaluable <strong>for</strong> helping transition to the next world<br />
whether of someone passing now or a <strong>spirit</strong> who has become stuck in the earthplane<br />
and needs to move on. This compassionate stone helps with soul retrieval,<br />
<strong>for</strong>giveness and attaining unity consciousness.<br />
Smoky Spirit Quartz Wand<br />
Trigonic Quartz: The Soul Midwife Quartz that accompanies birth and death. The<br />
incised triangles in the stone represent souls entering or leaving incarnation. This is a<br />
powerful crystal best used by experienced crystal workers as it can have cathartic<br />
effects (see 101 Power Crystals and Crystal Bible Vol.3). It helps you to traverse the<br />
multi-dimensions of consciousness and facilitates inter-stellar travel and<br />
communication with star beings.
Trigonic Quartz: the soul midwife<br />
Preseli Bluestone: An excellent visionary stone <strong>for</strong> all past life exploration. It is<br />
particularly useful <strong>for</strong> soul and power retrieval, ef<strong>for</strong>tlessly reaching way back into<br />
the past. Place on the soma chakra (on hairline above third eye) or past life chakas<br />
behind the ears.<br />
Tumbled Preseli Bluestone<br />
Stibnite: This metallic stone has a particular resonance with ‘alien’ entities and<br />
energies and can be used to return an entity that doesn’t belong on the earth to its<br />
home star. It creates a ‘one-way portal’ through which the entity leaves and cannot<br />
return – it is especially useful here when combined with Chlorite Quartz and a<br />
Selenite wand crossed over the Stibnite. It also works well to facilitate shamanic<br />
journeying to the lower worlds to facilitate soul retrieval and to help a practitioner<br />
move silently and with stealth when remaining unseen is the wise course. It also calls<br />
in power allies to assist.
Stibnite Wand: the Shaman’s tool<br />
Smoky Elestial Quartz power sceptres: These sceptre shaped <strong>crystals</strong> are invaluable<br />
when a <strong>spirit</strong> does not want to leave. They enhance your power and your sensitivity<br />
so that you know exactly how to move a <strong>spirit</strong> or entity on to the right level to<br />
receive assistance from higher beings. Once you find ‘your’ power sceptre it becomes<br />
an invaluable tool in your soul <strong>release</strong> and retrieval kit.<br />
Smoky Elestial Power Sceptre<br />
Selenite: frozen divine light, high vibration Selenite is the perfect receptacle <strong>for</strong> a<br />
<strong>spirit</strong> who needs somewhere to go while you continue <strong>release</strong> work. It assists with<br />
<strong>for</strong>giveness and brings a soul to the light calling in higher beings and angelic helpers.
Crystals and soul loss<br />
Selenite: frozen divine light<br />
In my experience, an attachment only arises when there is soul loss or fragmentation<br />
and it can be necessary to call a soul part home. Crystals help to purify the soul part<br />
and to reintegrate it. Calling the soul home, whether it’s a split off child part, an<br />
earlier past life part that hasn’t incarnated or the result of trauma or abuse in the<br />
present life, is facilitated with either a Brandenberg or Spirit Quartz but Fulgarite<br />
was traditionally used by American shamans to collect the soul part and blow it back<br />
into the heart.<br />
Emergency Crystal Healing <strong>for</strong> Spirit Attachment<br />
As the attaching <strong>spirit</strong> is, usually, an uninvited guest or the influence unsought, I<br />
believe this is one occasion when it is not necessary to request the other person’s<br />
permission to assist them as the <strong>spirit</strong> is breaching autonomy and right to choice. If<br />
the person is not present you can either use or a photograph or imagine them in the<br />
room with you, or use yourself as a surrogate by per<strong>for</strong>ming the healing on your<br />
own body.<br />
1. As soon as you begin, throw out an energetic net to trap the attaching <strong>spirit</strong><br />
so that it cannot slip away. (You can also lay out a crystal net be<strong>for</strong>e you start<br />
using Selenite, Bronzite or Black Tourmaline).<br />
2. Lay a protective Selenite or Black Tourmaline pentangle (five pointed star) on<br />
which you have preferably sprinkled Petaltone Astral Clear or Clear Light<br />
around you, or grid the stones in the corners of your room. (Burning<br />
Frankincense can also assist.) If the person is present, lay Selenite around<br />
them.
3. Holding a Brandenberg Amethyst or a Smoky Amethyst (or other crystal<br />
from the list), place a Bytownite or Apophyllite on your third eye or on the<br />
person with the attaching <strong>spirit</strong>. Ask that the <strong>spirit</strong> will make itself known to<br />
you and tell you why it has chosen to stay close to the earth. Ascertain<br />
whether the <strong>spirit</strong> knows it has passed to another plane of being.<br />
4. Talk to the <strong>spirit</strong> as appropriate, addressing his or her concerns and offering<br />
unconditional love, reassurance and understanding. Then ask if the <strong>spirit</strong> is<br />
ready to move into the light <strong>for</strong> healing.<br />
5. Place appropriate <strong>crystals</strong> (or Brandenberg or Smoky Quartz) over the soma,<br />
heart and solar plexus chakras). Visualise hands reaching down to help the<br />
<strong>spirit</strong> move into the light. If the <strong>spirit</strong> is reluctant, ask that his or her guardian<br />
angel and higher self will assist the process.<br />
6. Ask if the person who had the attachment needs to call any part of his or her<br />
own energy or soul back. If so, call it back with the Brandenberg letting it<br />
pass through that crystal <strong>for</strong> purification, and place it over the heart. Allow<br />
that energy to be reabsorbed.<br />
7. Now take the Brandenberg all the way around the body, sides, front and<br />
back, to heal and seal the biomagnetic field.<br />
Lost souls and stuck <strong>spirit</strong>s<br />
Bronzite is excellent <strong>for</strong> creating a safe-space grid<br />
Some lost souls may be deeply troubled and their interaction with the living can be<br />
malicious. They may have unfinished business, or powerful desires especially <strong>for</strong>
control over another person or to re-experience substance abuse, or simply do not<br />
know how to move on or to let go. Sometimes they do not even know that they are<br />
dead - after all, they feel very much alive! They may wonder why everyone around<br />
them appears to ignore them - and do all they can to gain attention. Other souls are<br />
simply clinging to what they know. Different <strong>crystals</strong> work <strong>for</strong> the various scenarios<br />
and it is worth experimenting to find one that interacts with your specific energy<br />
field and that of a client.<br />
If an attaching <strong>spirit</strong> has simply lost the way home, holding one of the<br />
<strong>crystals</strong> listed below and asking that the <strong>spirit</strong> be taken to the light by his or her<br />
guardian angel works well. Plant <strong>spirit</strong> essences combine well with <strong>crystals</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>spirit</strong><br />
<strong>release</strong> work. Petaltone Astral Clear or Clear Tone essences on a Quartz,<br />
Brandenberg or Smoky Spirit Quartz crystal, or a programmed Aventurine or Candle<br />
Quartz - or one of the stones below - are effective clearers. (Petaltone also includes a<br />
specialised <strong>release</strong> essence available only to practitioners www.petaltone.co.uk)<br />
If you can communicate with the <strong>spirit</strong> – placing a Yellow Laboradorite<br />
(Bytownite) or Apophyllite pyramid on your third eye assists with this - ask if there<br />
is anything you can do to assist, what he or she wants. The requests are usually<br />
simple and easy to arrange, and often relate to unfinished business. One you have<br />
agreed to do or offer whatever is required, the <strong>spirit</strong> moves on helped by the energies<br />
of the crystal.<br />
Apophyllite open psychic sight<br />
Bytownite and<br />
If the <strong>spirit</strong> is deeply entrenched, or is still of the opinion that their advice and<br />
assistance is crucial <strong>for</strong> the well being of someone still on earth, then it may take

Crystals <strong>for</strong> clearing curses: Nuummite or Black Tourmaline at throat chakra or<br />
Bronzite.<br />
Thought <strong>for</strong>ms<br />
In my experience, thought <strong>for</strong>ms account <strong>for</strong> a high proportion of apparent <strong>spirit</strong><br />
attachment. When people focus strongly upon something or have powerfully<br />
negative thoughts, they create a thought <strong>for</strong>m. In addition to being the product of<br />
your own mind, thought <strong>for</strong>ms can arise from other people’s perception or<br />
expectations, or from religious or other authoritarian dictates, and may also arise<br />
from books or films – many authors will tell you how their characters develop a life<br />
of their own and step off the page. Thought <strong>for</strong>ms either lodge themselves in the<br />
mental part of the biomagnetic sheath, an internal thought <strong>for</strong>m, or, as external<br />
thought <strong>for</strong>ms, inhabit the lower astral realms - a place very close to the earth plane<br />
where most <strong>spirit</strong>s first pass after death of the body.<br />
External thought <strong>for</strong>ms appear to have separate and distinct life and energy -<br />
and may interfere in the lives of human beings, typically by masquerading as a<br />
‘guide’ who spouts rubbish rather than sound guidance or a figure who appears<br />
during meditation or quiet moments. Internal thought <strong>for</strong>ms are usually<br />
experienced as a derogatory inner voice or obsessive thought.<br />
How to recognise a thought <strong>for</strong>m<br />
• It may resemble you but it doesn’t feel like you or have anything to do with<br />
what you really want or who you are inside.
• It looks, talks or behaves exactly like a character from a film or book,<br />
especially a horror story.<br />
• It has very little substance to it, seeming more like a caricature<br />
• It gives you negative messages such as ‘that’s a bad thing to do’, ‘you’re not<br />
good enough’, ‘it’s all your fault’, ‘you’ll never be/get what you want’, ‘you<br />
don’t deserve’, ‘you’re too clever <strong>for</strong> your own good’.<br />
• The guidance it gives is inappropriate and fallible.<br />
Dealing with thought <strong>for</strong>ms<br />
To remove an external thought <strong>for</strong>m, programme a large piece of one of the <strong>crystals</strong><br />
below and leave in a room to do its work. Internal thought <strong>for</strong>ms can be quickly<br />
dissolved with a crystal placed over the third eye as they tend to be stored in the<br />
brow chakra or just behind the ears. Use a Selenite Wand to detach them or place one<br />
of the following <strong>crystals</strong> over the chakra <strong>for</strong> ten minutes. Banded Agate is excellent<br />
where the thought <strong>for</strong>m has been implanted by a guru or is the result of a distorted,<br />
contaminated implant of ‘healing’ symbols – follow up with a Brandenberg<br />
Amethyst to replace it with a pure program. Aegerine over the third eye is excellent<br />
<strong>for</strong> mental obsession or possession where you can’t get someone out of your mind<br />
General <strong>crystals</strong> <strong>for</strong> dissolving thought <strong>for</strong>ms: Labradorite, Aegerine, Iolite, Clear<br />
Kunzite, Smoky Amethyst, Blue Selenite, Herkimer Diamond, Smoky Citrine, Brown<br />
Jasper, Citrine Herkimer, Pyrolusite. Celestobarite<br />

Crystals <strong>for</strong> entity attachment to the third eye<br />
Larimar, Smoky Amethyst, Brandenberg Amethyst, Shattuckite, Pyroluscite, Smoky<br />
Phantom, Brandenberg Amethyst, Celestobarite, Laser Quartz, Petalite<br />
Crystals <strong>for</strong> entities attached to places<br />
Marcasite, Smoky Amethyst, Larimar<br />
Chakra attachments<br />
Many attachments occur through the chakras and <strong>crystals</strong> can be used to ‘clean out<br />
the hooks’. It’s not only discarnate <strong>spirit</strong>s that can attach here. Anyone you have ever<br />
had sex with can have left some of their energy field in your lower chakras, <strong>for</strong>
instance but strong thoughts of lust can lodge there even if there has been no<br />
physical contact, and it is common to find that miscarriages or still births have left<br />
behind some of the energy of the soul who would have been born. You will find<br />
emotional attachment hooks into the sacral and solar plexus, thought <strong>for</strong>ms in the<br />
third eye, ancestral hooks in the soma or higher chakras.<br />
The new high vibration Rainbow Mayanite works brilliantly <strong>for</strong> chakra<br />
clearing but has to be used with care as it’s like a psychic scalpel. Flint, Raw<br />
Charoite, Brandenberg, Lemurian Seed, Clear Quartz Points and Stibnite also work<br />
well. Simply spiral the crystal in (counter clockwise is usual but use which works <strong>for</strong><br />
you), then spiral the crystal out to pull out the attachments. Cleanse the crystal<br />
thoroughly and then spiral in light to seal where the attachment was held.<br />
Earth Star (below the feet) Material connection. Attachments: <strong>spirit</strong>s of place, stuck<br />
<strong>spirit</strong>s. If it is permanently open, you can easily pick up negative energies from the<br />
ground or pick up ‘<strong>spirit</strong>s of place’, either as attachments or as communication of<br />
events that have taken place.<br />
Base and sacral: Creativity. Attachments: previous partners, children, anyone you’ve<br />
ever had sex with, needy people, thought <strong>for</strong>ms, unborn parents.<br />
Previous partners or significant others leave their imprint in these chakras and can<br />
continue to influence through the association.<br />
Solar plexus: Emotions. Attachments: people with whom you have had an<br />
emotional entanglement in the past whenever that may have been. Ancestral <strong>spirit</strong>s,<br />
relatives, needy people. Invasion and energy leeching take place through this<br />
chakra. A 'stuck-open' solar plexus means you take on other people’s feelings easily.<br />
You may well receive intuitions through your solar plexus as you unconsciously read<br />
other people’s emotions.<br />
Spleen (under left arm) Energy. Attachments: psychic vampires, needy people, ex-<br />
partners. Psychic vampires can leach your energy, as can past partners, children or<br />
parents and hooks here are common.<br />
Heart seed (base of breastbone) Soul remembrance. Attachments: parts of your soul<br />
left in other lives or dimensions. If you have left parts of yourself at past life deaths<br />
or traumatic or deeply emotional experiences, then these parts can be attached and<br />
trying to influence you to complete unfinished business.
Higher Heart (above the heart): Unconditional love. Attachments: guides, gurus or<br />
masters, mentors. Mentors, masters and gurus open the higher heart chakra, and in<br />
so doing tie you to them and not all masters or gurus have clean energy or the best of<br />
intents.<br />
Throat (over throat) Communication. Attachments: teachers, mentors, gurus,<br />
thought <strong>for</strong>ms. A blocked throat chakra results in difficulty in communication -<br />
especially in not being able to speak your truth. Problems can arise from your own<br />
unvoiced intuitions and the dogmatic nature of a blocked throat chakra can leave<br />
you closed to intuitive solutions.<br />
Brow Chakras (third eye, slightly above and between the eyebrows) Intuition.<br />
Attachments: thought <strong>for</strong>ms, ancestors or relatives, lost souls. If the chakra is<br />
blocked, then you cannot visualise or receive intuitions. You will be attached to the<br />
past, fearful and superstitious and prone to create exactly what you fear most.<br />
Soma Chakra (above the third eye, at the hairline) Spiritual connection<br />
Attachments: ‘lost souls’, walk-ins. When this chakra is stuck open it is all too easy<br />
<strong>for</strong> <strong>spirit</strong>s to attach. It can be used to detach the etheric body and help the soul move<br />
out.<br />
Past life chakras (behind the ears along the bony ridge of the skull) Past experiences.<br />
Attachments: past life personas, soul fragments, thought <strong>for</strong>ms from previous<br />
beliefs. If the chakras are stuck open, you will feel unsafe and overwhelmed by past<br />
life memories of trauma and violent death and fears which leaves the way open <strong>for</strong><br />
past life personas and thought <strong>for</strong>ms to attach or re-manifest.<br />
Crown Chakra Spiritual connection Attachments: <strong>spirit</strong>ual entities, lost souls,<br />
mentors. If it is stuck open, then you will be prey to illusions and false<br />
communicators as it leaves you open to thought <strong>for</strong>ms, <strong>spirit</strong> attachment or undue<br />
influence.<br />
Soul Star (above your head) Spiritual enlightenment/illumination. Attachments:<br />
ancestral <strong>spirit</strong>s, ETs, ‘lost souls’. Stuck open or blocked closed, it can lead to soul<br />
fragmentation, <strong>spirit</strong> attachment, ET invasion, or overwhelm by ancestral <strong>spirit</strong>s.<br />
Stellar Gateway (above the Soul Star) Cosmic doorway to other worlds.<br />
Attachments: so-called enlightened beings that are anything but. When it is stuck<br />
open, it can be a source of cosmic disin<strong>for</strong>mation that leads to illusion, delusion,<br />
deception and disintegration that leaves you totally unable to function in the<br />
everyday world.
Crystals <strong>for</strong> past life healing<br />
In my experience, a great deal of <strong>spirit</strong> <strong>release</strong> and soul retrieval work has its roots in<br />
previous lives as soul fragments can be left behind or the soul may bring an<br />
attachment <strong>for</strong>ward or one may pass down the ancestral line. I’ve been using <strong>crystals</strong><br />
<strong>for</strong> past life healing <strong>for</strong> over <strong>for</strong>ty years and these are just some of the crystal tools<br />
I’ve found useful. Select the ones with which you best resonate:<br />

The Uncursing Ritual<br />
Many soul parts get stuck in previous lives because they have, deliberately or<br />
inadvertently, been cursed. This ritual is excellent <strong>for</strong> removing past life curses that<br />
hold a soul part in thrall but it also clears ancestral attachments, thought <strong>for</strong>ms and<br />
entities. You can do it <strong>for</strong> yourself or on another person.<br />
• Make a large rectangle big enough to lie down in with Tourmalinated Quartz<br />
at each corner. Join the <strong>crystals</strong> up with a Tourmalinated Quartz or other<br />
wand to create a sacred space into which you can step or place the person<br />
you are working on (lie down <strong>for</strong> the ritual).<br />
• Place a fifth Tourmalinated Quartz crystal just below the breastbone over the<br />
heart seed chakra above the solar plexus. Hold a Nuummite crystal in your<br />
right hand (a wand or wedge shape is ideal) and a Novaculite or Flint shard<br />
in your left hand.<br />
• Beginning at the crown chakra, place both hands above the head and ‘comb’<br />
across the chakra about a hand’s breadth above the body with each of the<br />
<strong>crystals</strong> in turn starting with the Novaculite (be careful as this flinty crystal<br />
can be very sharp). As you work on the chakra, ask that you or your patient<br />
and all the ancestral line be <strong>release</strong>d from all and any curses/thought <strong>for</strong>ms<br />
that have been put at any time in the past.<br />
• Moving your hands in a figure of eight <strong>for</strong>mation that crosses and then<br />
moves apart again at each chakra, move down the body cleansing and<br />
clearing each chakra in turn.<br />
• When you reach the base chakra, work back up the chakras again with the<br />
same sweeping figure of eight movement until you reach the crown.<br />
Continue until the chakras feel clear.<br />
• Now close your eyes and ask that the person who placed the curse will make<br />
him or herself known to you. You may see a clear picture or get a prickling<br />
sensation on one side of your head or a pain somewhere in your body – in<br />
which case move the Tourmalinated Quartz over the spot either on your own<br />
body or that of your patient to absorb the pain. Talk to this person, discuss<br />
why the curse was placed, how it can be removed and what reparation, if
any, is required on either side. Offer or accept <strong>for</strong>giveness. Then ask that the<br />
curse be lifted from the recipient and all the generations to come and those<br />
who have gone be<strong>for</strong>e, everyone who has been affected. Feel the effect of the<br />
<strong>crystals</strong> radiating back through time and <strong>for</strong>ward into the future freed from<br />
the effects of the curse and bringing beneficial experiences and joyful learning<br />
to everyone involved.<br />
• Work through each chakra again in turn with the Novaculite and Nuummite<br />
again healing and sealing each one with light.<br />
• Find a place where you can set out the Tourmalinated grid and leave it to<br />
continue its work.<br />
