Eternal Silence

Update Feb 28, 2023: the website will probably go away soon as I have lost interest in keeping it.

Although I don’t have much of an interest in keeping this crystal shop going anymore, we will keep Metaphysical Vibes around a little while longer. How much longer? I don’t know.

I did mention on my Instagram that we will stick around only until all the crystals and stones have been adopted. If you’re interested, you can shop here or Etsy.

Thank you, it’s been an interesting endeavor.

Peace, love and prosperity.

p.s. for those who are interested in the Crystal Mary, the one featured in the photo is from my personal collection and not for sale. You can click here to browse and admire the collection.

Meme: When Your Chakras Are All Aligned

I made a meme for once! It says:

When your chakras are all aligned.

The image is of Thanos the Mad Titan who collects the Infinity Stones for his own selfish gain.

I’m going to attempt to relate this to the chakras. I know, I know; crystal healing, chakra healing and the wellness industry in general has become the butt of jokes; super played out and oversaturated with cringe-y BS these days but…

you can’t deny that in spite of fake or misinformed people, underneath it all is the Energy itself.

I’m going to write as authentically as I can, from my own words.

Why should you care about aligning your chakras?

In theory, you don’t have to ever align your chakras, it’s not like you’ll die if you don’t ever get to know the chakra system. The truth is, you don’t have to do anything you don’t want to do. Ever.

But from personal experience and existing in a physical, human body for 44 years now – I have to say that the energy we put out into the world is very important. Once you learn and master this energy, in some ways you become like Thanos – almighty and all powerful. You’ve mastered and worked with your own subtle energy – you can control it and you can manifest whatever is for you.

Read that again: you can manifest whatever IS for you. Notice I didn’t say you can manifest whatever you want.

Just because we align our chakras and heal ourselves doesn’t mean life is going to be perfect from here on out. The wellness industry has a tendency to focus on the love and light part and not so much on shadow work and integration. Understanding what each chakra does can help us understand our own nuanced energy.

If anything, you’ll keep learning and experiencing new things. In other words, you’ll continue to level up.

I’ve come to learn that our physical bodies aren’t really the ones running things – they’re simply physical manifestations of the soul’s biological shell. A beautiful shell that we occupy during our time here on earth.

It is only a small part of who we are.

Not aligning your chakras means that you or I will be more prone to imbalances – negative feelings of entitlement, anger, jealousy, depression, anxiety and the list goes on and on.

I want to add this excerpt from a book called Wheels of Light by Rosalyn L. Bruyere:

Our intention becomes very clear when we understand that, whether we are conscious of it or not, we influence our environment. For example, when I began to understand that my aura – my energy field – controlled whether plants lived or died in my home, I began to further see that my aura also affected the way my pets lived, the way my children lived, the way my neighbors lived. To have power is to have impact on everything around us. We can learn not to fear that impact but to use it – consistently, consciously, and responsibly – integrating it in a natural way into our daily living. If each of us were self-responsible for having more power, for carrying more light, more love, and more wisdom, then surely the planet would be a better place.

So how to experience your chakras? It’s not like they are tangible “things”…

You can start off with our 7 Chakra Stone Set and work your way to getting to know your chakras through the stones.

Metaphysical Use Of Crystals & Stones For Modern Times

With everything going on in the world, it’s very difficult NOT to find yourself consumed with anxiety, negativity, and cynicism. The only problem is that allowing negativity to control you will only lead to more negativity. It’ll make you sick, angry, and turn your life upside down. To offset these issues and bring normalcy to your life, you’ll want to learn more about the metaphysical use of crystals and stones.

Certain stones can help you combat certain problems. Amethyst may be effective for negating hangovers and drunkenness. This is only one example. Below, readers will learn more about the metaphysical use of crystals and stones in modern times.

What IS metaphysics, anyway?

According to Wikipedia:

Metaphysics is a major branch of philosophy. It concerns existence and the nature of things that exist. Altogether it is a theory of reality.

Today the term metaphysics usually refers to discussion of aspects of reality which are beyond physics.

If you think about it, most of humanity’s problems originate from the mind and emotions, something we don’t see but experience all the time. You can see where we’re going with this and how metaphysics can relate to crystals and stones and how crystals and stones can effect mental and emotional healing.

The Metaphysical Properties Of Stones

The world has flipped upside down, so you’re likely looking for a way to right the ship. Well, it might be as easy as taking advantage of stones. Benefiting from the metaphysical properties of stones can help you improve your life by bringing awareness to what you need energetically. This is an effective way to boost your inner strength, enhance your knowledge, improve your bravery, and promote positivity. The possibilities are endless. You cannot ignore the metaphysical attributes of stones and crystals.

Energy Healing Stones

While there are other ways to cure ailments, many techniques come with severe side effects and serious repercussions. As a result, many consumers are looking for safer ways to deal with their issues. Crystal healing is one possibility. This alternative medicine technique utilizes crystals and stones to treat ailments and defend against disease. Supports of this notion claim that crystals are conduits for healing. They argue that stones allow healing, positive energies to flow into the body while eliminating negative energies.

Subtle energy shifts can lead to serious issues. By harnessing the power of crystals, one will be able to enhance their health and promote positivity in their life.

The Immense Benefits Of Healing Stones & Crystals

In your natural environment, you’ll find yourself surrounded by negative energy. It is pertinent to find ways to void this negativity and fill yourself with positive thoughts. Certain crystals and stones can help you achieve this goal. Smokey Quartz is an excellent example of this. This stone is considered to be one of the most effective grounding stones. This means that it can be used to neutralize and eliminate negative vibrations and energies. Furthermore, it can detoxify the user. If you find yourself in a bad mood, you only need to pick up a Smoky Quartz crystal, and your mood will change rapidly.

You’ll also want to learn more about Fuchsite Kyanite Stones and their eye-opening benefits. These stones possess the ability to heal the heart while stabilizing one’s energy field. This stone will never acquire negative energy, so its applications are unlimited. If you need to bring a gentle calm to your life, you’ll want to use a Fuchsite Kyanite Stone.

Endless Possibilities

When it comes to the metaphysical uses of healing stones and crystals, the possibilities are endless. Whether you wish to enhance your spirituality or heightening your consciousness, you’ll be able to achieve your goals with the right stones. There has never been a better time to transform your life and become a better you. Don’t ignore the powerful energies possessed by healing crystals.

An Oracle Pull & Healing Stones for January 1st, 2021

It’s the first day of a new year – the sun is in Capricorn and the moon is in Leo. The year is officially 2021.

While I wasn’t intending to pull a card I did so on a whim to post on my Instagram page and ended up pulling a 1 – SEER card from the Nature Nurture Oracle deck created by Marcella Kroll. From the booklet this card indicates:

Omens, prophecy, dream time and wisdom

It’s a powerful time to pay attention to the invisible world and receive messages in dreamtime or meditation. Social media has a way of keeping us forever distracted – always on our phones, having FOMO, or just scrolling and looking for the next fix. I get it, it happens to all of us…myself included.

Owls have long been associated with wisdom, knowledge and being able to ‘see’ through the dark so it only felt right to add these two lovely stones to the mix – a Labradorite and a Lapis Lazuli. Edit: only the Labradorite is available for purchase.

Why did I choose these stones?

As you probably already know, Labradorite is a stone of magic and can help you ‘tune in’ to your intuition or psychic ability.

I want to stress that the word ‘psychic‘ doesn’t literally mean “mind reader”. You may or may not gain mind reading powers with Labradorite BUT you’ll be able to tap in to a deeper aspect of yourself and begin to ‘see’ people’s energy beyond the surface level. We are layered beings and accessing your psychic abilities takes time and practice.

Lapis Lazuli is a stone of ancient wisdom and royalty. Just looking at the stone immediately takes you to the night sky, with flecks of Pyrite and Calcite as stars. The kings and queens of ancient Egypt adorned themselves with Lapis Lazuli, even wearing it into the afterlife.

According to Melody, Lapis can be placed over the third eye to aid one in developing insight into ones own dreams.

Both stones have different shades of blue so they naturally vibrate to your 5th chakra. The 5th chakra is associated with our throat – it enhances communication ability and the ability to speak our truth.

Back to the oracle card. One of the definitions of ‘seer‘ is

a person endowed with profound moral and spiritual insight or knowledge; a wise person or sage who possesses intuitive powers.

So let’s be like the owl who is a seer. Observe and see your life and those around you from a higher perspective.

Purchase this Labradorite palm stone at my Etsy shop.

Angel Aura Quartz / Space Ghost Glitch

At the time of this blog post, we’re in the last quarter moon phase – sun in Sagittarius, moon in Libra. The year is 2020.

I don’t have the words to express how I’ve been feeling; melancholy is the word that comes to mind at the moment.

Lately, I’ve been paying attention more to my personal astrology and the things that are described within it make more sense to me everyday. Because honestly right now, nothing makes sense to me. The year 2020 has been weird and chaotic.

The app I use is Time Passages and there is so much to explore in there.

I guess what’s been comforting to me during this long, drawn out year is knowing I can look to the crystals to uplift me and give me a higher perspective. Knowing that I’m a tiny blip in this vast universe makes human events seem less significant and that ultimately there is nothing to worry about.

Here’s an Angel Aura Quartz cluster that I played with in Photoshop. This beautiful cluster has sold.

Crystal of the Day: Apophyllite with Calcite

 

I haven’t done a ‘Crystal of the Day’ blog post in a while. I haven’t written a blog in general for some time now, actually.

I’m not going to pretend that 2020 has been an easy year because it really hasn’t been.

All I can say is that this too shall pass and we can look back on it and say that we were still living well even in a pandemic.

If you can breathe, if you can talk, walk, see, hear and touch then you ARE living well.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to minimize people’s problems. I get that it’s not always that simple, but then again these 5 basic things ARE a necessity to living.

Although life has been strange and intense since the pandemic there’s still LOTS to be thankful for at any given day, like this stunning and uniquely structured mineral combo: an Apophyllite with Calcite. I call this an architect’s dreamhouse. Because every time I look at this mineral, it reminds me of a designer’s house. I envision this gorgeous structure to be built on a cliff overlooking the ocean with the Calcite part pointed down.

The upside down pyramid like structure is multilevel and full of light. And if you shrink yourself down to the size of this crystal, you can actually imagine yourself inside of it.

Metaphysically, Calcites are known for the following properties:

Calcite keywords: Insight, clarity, manifestation, forgiveness

Physical: stimulates metabolism and energy flow through the aura.

Emotional: encourages forgiveness, releasing anger, resentment, arrogance and envy

Spiritual: facilitates creating inner clarity, initiating multilevel awareness.

Now let’s focus on the rooftop of this amazing place. The “roof” is made of clear Apophyllite crystals of different shapes and sizes…just sparkly and beautiful, a literal dream.

This mineral can be seen in many ways; you could turn it the other way with the Calcite section pointing up and you will still see that it can be an architect’s house.

If you’re tired of earth at the moment, you can imagine that this mineral is some sort of spaceship taking you far away to another dimension. Where would you go in this vast universe?

Metaphysically, Apophyllites are known for the following properties:

Physical: supports infusion of spiritual Light, making the Light Body physical

Emotional: aids in rediscovering trust in the Divine after disillusionment

Spiritual: facilitates interdimensional travel, connecting with guides and angels

Apophyllites excel at attuning one to the higher-frequency energies of the angelic and interdimensional domains. Indeed, these crystals can serve as windows into many other worlds, and those wishing to experience interdimensional travel will enjoy working with them.

One video of this stunning mineral combo just wasn’t enough. So here’s another one so you can see and appreciate all the details of this crystal.

 

You can purchase this stunning crystal here.

Dark Healing Crystals & Stones for Dark Times

I mentioned briefly on my Instagram that if you’re not feeling safe or protected during this time – due to the virus and racism on top of stressful personal issues – job loss, which leads to less to no money, which leads to even more stress because bills can’t get paid, etc.

I am suggesting that you turn to the darker minerals such as Black Tourmaline, Smokey Quartz, or Obsidian.

I personally do not believe we’re in dark times, although it MAY seem that way. I’m also aware that people are struggling, angry and frustrated with the systems we live with. If anything, we are being stripped away of things that have been distracting us and keeping us in a state of illusion. We can now see the truth and who we really are as human beings.

Most crystals and stones featured in the photo are still available. They are:

2 Gold Sheen Obsidian spheres (SOLD)
2 Smokey Quartz
2 Obsidian
1 Smokey Amethyst (SOLD)
1 Black Tourmaline (SOLD)
1 Black Moonstone
1 Fluorescent Blue, 30 million year old Amber (SOLD)

Dark minerals are especially good with protection, shielding and transmuting our environments – including ourselves – from negative energies.

What are negative energies? Negative energy can feel like:

  • Stress
  • Not feeling good in your body
  • Anxiety
  • Fear
  • Anger
  • Hate
  • Arguing and wanting to be right
  • Judgements
  • Snappy or short temperedness
  • An ugly, traumatic memory from the past that keeps resurfacing, holding you hostage in the present moment.
  • Nervousness
  • Negative thoughts and statements
  • Regretting past actions and repeating them
  • Saying mean things to yourself

Too much stress eventually leads to physical manifestations of pain and dis-ease. It is perfectly okay to feel these negative emotions; allow them to be expressed and pass through you. You must learn to destress and find peace in the midst of chaos – your health literally depends on it!

Dark minerals help with grounding and manifestation; releasing feelings of not feeling safe or secure, releasing anxiety, stress, and fear.

While holding your dark stone you can take long, deep breaths and repeat the words “I am safe from inner and outer harm”.

I am safe from inner and outer harm.
I am safe from inner and outer harm.
I am safe from inner and outer harm.
And so it is.

Repeating this affirmation will program your mind, body and soul. Remember that your external or outer state is usually a reflection of your internal or inner state.

We are energy existing in a human body. And if energy cannot be created or destroyed but simply transformed from one state into another, then we have changed forms SO. MANY. TIMES. Our human existence may seem relatively short compared to the life of a crystal or a stone, but know that we are just as ancient. It would be overwhelming to remember ALL our lifetimes, it would make you crazy. And so we are “born again” into a new body, thinking we are “new”. We are in a constant state of amnesia until we have a so-called “spiritual awakening” which is really just a remembrance of who you really are.

Once you realize this then there is nothing to fear.

Of course you are still in a human body and so you have to adhere to human rules in society. So be considerate, wear a mask.

Also perfect since we’re in dark moon / new moon time.

Rest and dream up your vision of the future that liberates all people from their suffering.

You can find these minerals at Metaphysical Vibes online crystal shop.

Aura Quartz Crystals for Sale – YouTube Video from Metaphysical Vibes

Here’s a quick video that I made showing you some of the Aura Quartz crystals I still have available at my shop: Titanium Smoky Quartz, Angel Aura Quartz cluster (which I haven’t listed yet) and Sunset Aura Smokey Elestial Quartz.

Aura crystals are what sell the most in my shop, so that’s why I did this video.

Why are aura crystals so popular? In my opinion, people are drawn to their intense, metallic color. Men or male identifying people tend to buy the blue/green Titanium Smoky Aura, while women or female identifying people tend to buy Angel Aura or Opal Aura Quartz because they’re pretty. Rainbow lovers in general tend to buy Rainbow Titanium Aura.

These are just general observations based on what people have bought from my shop.

Opinion: The Pros and Cons of Having an Online Crystal Shop

It’s been 5 years since I started Metaphysical Vibes; here are some things I’ve learned from this experience that I wanted to share with you.

There were some initial goals, the first goal was to make money selling something that I truly love. But with all things one puts their time and energy into, it really becomes more than just about making money; you have to acquire deep knowledge of what you are selling – you literally have to immerse yourself in all things metaphysical, especially for me since I named my crystal shop ‘Metaphysical Vibes’!

If you want this to be more than just a hobby, you also have to know the business and marketing side of it. There’s so much to learn and do and think about that it can easily get overwhelming.

So here are the pros and cons (at least for me), I will start with the ‘cons’ of having an online crystal shop.

Cons:

– You will be spending money to make money, kind of like investing. I have spent money on inventory, packing & shipping supplies, gas and/or a rental to drive to and from gem shows, ads on Facebook, Google & Instagram. Luckily I know how to create graphics and build websites so I didn’t have to spend money on that, but now that I think about it – I DID spend money on increasing my skills as a content creator.

– You will be competing with so many other people who sell the same thing online.

– You will go through ups and downs, meaning: you won’t always make consistent sales.

– You will pay taxes, especially if you sell a lot.

Pros:

+ Picking crystals and stones for your shop is so much fun, it’s really the best part of having a crystal shop. I pick them as if they were for me.😊

+ You will experience so much spiritual growth. My mindset is way different from 5 years ago. I also invested in my own education by getting certifications in Reiki and Trans Crystal Therapy.

+ You will meet wonderful people, buyers and sellers alike. I find that people who buy or sell minerals tend to be more kind and easy going.

+ You will learn a lot about minerals, from a geological and metaphysical point of view.

+ You will also learn the business and marketing part of it. How will people know about your business? That’s where marketing comes in.

+ You get to be creative and express yourself through the crystals and stones. You can setup your online shop however you like, take photos however you prefer, edit them in Photoshop, write about the crystals and create sacred and beautiful spaces that will attract buyers.

+ I’m a quiet person and pretty much an introvert so being able to do everything online without too much customer service is a dream come true for me. I love people, just in small doses.😉

Conclusion:

While there are going to be expenses that you will incur when you start up your online crystal shop, the pros outweigh the cons as you will learn a lot. So if it calls to you, I say go for it! Abundance and prosperity is already yours, and there is enough for everyone.

I hope this gives you some ideas on how to get started!

Can Crystals Be Dangerous?💎🤔☠️

I saw this search phrase pop up on the website so I felt the need to write a blog post about it.

The question is: Can Crystals Be Dangerous?

Let’s look at this question from a few aspects:

Physical

From a physical point of view, yes they can be; they are minerals after all with very sharp points and edges. If you’re not careful handling them, there’s a chance that the crystal will cut up your fingers or hands.

The physical labor of mining these beautiful crystals so we can all enjoy them is also a very dangerous job.

For example, check out this Instagram and look at their photos; they are Professional High Mountain Crystal Hunters. What they do looks dangerous AF especially in such cold climates. High risk for high rewards.

Mental

Our minds are very powerful. If our thoughts are energetic vibrations then our thoughts can affect physical reality. I mean, think about it: your life IS a manifestation of your thoughts. It is said that once upon a time, the ancient civilizations of Lemuria and Atlantis misused the power of crystals. What we can learn from this is that we have to work with crystals that only serve the greater good of everyone, especially yourself.

Spiritual

This sort of ties in to the mental part. When the Lemurians & Atlanteans misused the crystals for their own selfish purposes, they completely forgot the spiritual aspect – of being connected and one with source energy.

We humans have a tendency to forget that we are spiritual beings having a human existence; we are often prone to greed and selfishness. And as a seller of crystals and stones, it’s always important for me to be mindful of this.

Emotional

From an emotional point of view, crystals can be dangerous if we aren’t emotionally balanced. Since crystals hold neutral light energy, they can easily pick up on vibrations in the environment they’re in. For example: if you are in a living space with crystals and you tend to fight or argue with people in that same space – the crystal will pick up on that and reflect those bad vibes.

Definitely get into a routine of clearing your crystals while also clearing yourself of negative emotions on a regular basis.

Conclusion

So to answer the question: can crystals be dangerous? Crystals CAN be dangerous if we’re the ones not being conscious and aware of how we are working with them. Remember that we are stewards, caretakers of the earth. As with everything, use your best judgment, using a healthy mix of intuition with common sense.

The Twin Calcite crystal cluster featured in the photo is spiky and dangerous looking, but his energy is awesome. I think that’s why I was drawn to him. He has sold.
