All, welcome to my first Crystal Talk blog entry.  I wish I had music to cue up--this feels like the start of a late-late-late-late night talk show. You know, the kind that just graduated off of Cable Access at 4:30am, and is now getting the highly coveted hot spot at 3:30am.

The purpose of this blog is to talk about crystals, and their methods of use.  This is not designed to be a blog for basic chit chat about how pretty they are or how your newest crystal has nested phantoms.  This is about discussing the properties of crystals, their functional purpose, and instructions and teachings on how to best clean, charge, program, manifest, and discharge them.

Keep in mind, this is an area that will only survive with your involvement!  As you might have seen by now, you are able to comment on blogs, much like you are able to reply to forum messages on Bring4th.   So if you are into crystals and feel you have some experience in this area, I'd love to start getting a group of people together to talk about them.

The first topic has to do with using crystals.  Has anyone here used crystals for any (white magic or love-based) purposes, such as healing, channeling, chakra balancing, or astral travelling? I think I'd like to start there, so we can form a small interest group and get to know each other.

Please add a comment below introducing yourself and give us a few examples of what you use crystals for.

Remember, your participation is needed, or else I'm going to end up talking to myself a LOT.
