Meditation with the crystals to connect to the chakras
Both of these crystals connect to the same chakra the third eye chakra and the crown chakra. Selenite has the ability to enhance the power of other healing crystals and it helps the flow of energy between crystals. Using both of these crystals together makes it much more likely to connect to the crown chakra. It is pretty common to meditate with more than one healing crystal as it increases the likelihood of connecting to your chakras.
Try and meditate somewhere you may feel relaxed or a safe place. You should try meditating on a comfortable surface such as a pillow or a yoga mat. Sit in a meditation position holding each crystal in each hand, and try and use a crystal that is not too big and comfortable to hold. Concentrate on inhaling and exhaling until the mind is relaxed, this should only take 5-10 minutes. Once the mind is clear of all thoughts allow the energy of the crystals to flow through your hands, if you struggle to let the flow of energy through your hands you should concentrate on inhaling the energy through your nose to your lungs. Once the energy of the crystals is flowing through your body concentrate on pushing the energy toward your crown chakra.
Connecting to the crown chakra can be an overwhelming experience, people who connect feel that they connect with their guardian angels or the lord of the divine. While others feel that they are traveling through the universe, some might feel more grounded and have a more spiritual connection to nature and the earth itself. Connecting to the crown chakra can be an overwhelming experience and should be done in the presence of an expert. Each person might experience a unique experience connecting to the crown chakra. Some people say they have had a spiritual awakening connecting to their crown chakra and now they are living a more happy and fulfilled life.
It is not always possible to connect to your chakras, using both of these crystals together increases the likelihood of connecting. Both selenite and celestite are considered powerful healing crystals and should be in every crystal healer's collection.
