Programming Crystals: Sparkling Intentions for a Brighter You

Imagine your crystal is like a new friend who’s just moved into the neighborhood. Before they can really start vibing with the local scene, they need to know what’s what—who are the cool cats, where’s the best coffee, and what’s their role in this vibrant community? That’s where you come in, giving your shiny new buddy a bit of a nudge in the right direction. Welcome to the whimsical world of programming your crystals!

First things first, after you’ve given your crystal a moonlit spa day (a.k.a., a good cleanse), it’s time to have “the chat.” You know, the one where you share dreams, aspirations, and set some intentions. But let’s not dive into this with just any mindset - I find it useful to get in a place of gratitude first. Think about all the things you have to be grateful for, really feel it in your body and set an intention from that place. It's not ideal to be in a state of fear or scarcity when setting intentions!

Now, setting intentions isn’t about drawing up a five-year plan with bullet points and deadlines. Oh no, it’s more like sketching a treasure map with a big, bold X marking the spot of your desires. Doing this first thing in the morning? Congrats, you’ve just given your day a purposeful glow-up, steering your ship towards the island of “Things I Actually Want.” And even if you’re a bit skeptical, like believing unicorns might just be horses with party hats, give intention setting a whirl. Make it light, make it fun, and let the universe do its thing.

When you set your intention, hold the crystal in your hand (you can also raise to your Third Eye) and connect with it. Really feel it in your hands and be still for a while. Consider the purpose for which you wish to use it. Your intention need not be a daunting or arduous task - keep it simple. It can be as easy as holding the crystal and saying "My intention for this crystal is for clarity, to see opportunities when they arise", or "My intention for this crystal is to open my heart and connect with all people I come into contact with".

Once you’ve shared this special moment, place your crystal somewhere you’ll see it often—maybe next to your bed, on your desk, or even tucked into your pocket. Think of it as your personal cheerleader, reminding you of the day’s game plan every time your gaze drifts its way.

So, there you have it—a guide to turning your crystals into partners in crime (the good kind, of course) on your journey to grab life by the rainbows. Set those intentions, infuse them with joy, and watch as your crystal—and you—shine brighter.
