It's an interesting question, and the answer is both yes and no.
With over 30 years of experience working with crystals and gemstones, we at Mudita always say, for example, that Rose Quartz is associated with love and calmness rather than claiming that Rose Quartz will bring love into your life and make you calm. And there's a reason for that.
Many spiritual and metaphysical philosophies suggest that our ability to harness the energies of crystals and gemstones depends on our own energetic vibration. Essentially, if we're energetically dense or blocked, we might be less receptive to these subtle energies.
Of course, there are many people who would say it's all mumbo jumbo and that crystals cannot heal. But those same people could not dispute that crystals carry their own vibration because everything carries its own vibration. As Albert Einstein said, "Everything is energy and that's all there is to it. This is not philosophy. This is physics."
Our ‘vibration’ essentially reflects our overall state of being. Every single thing in this universe is composed of energy vibrating at distinct frequencies. Even solid objects are actually fields of vibrational energy at the quantum level, and that includes you and the chair you are sitting on.
So, we're saying that yes, crystals and gemstones could have an effect on you the less dense your vibration is. Unless you're vibrating at a higher, lighter, less dense frequency, you probably won't be able to 'feel' the vibration from the crystal and therefore the potential healing power of a crystal.
How can we get ourselves into a lighter, less dense vibration? There are many ways. Meditation changes our vibration, as does chanting mantras, praying, walking in nature, and practicing yoga. But most of all, the most powerful tool we have at our disposal to change and elevate our vibration is to change our mind.
Dr. Bruce Lipton says, "Beliefs and thoughts alter cells in your body. The moment you change your perception is the moment you rewrite the chemistry of your body." Our thoughts, and only our thoughts, determine how we feel. Eckhart Tolle adds, "The primary cause of unhappiness is never the situation but your thoughts about it."
So what sort of thoughts create a lighter frequency? Kindness, generosity, gratitude, compassion, forgiveness, trust, joy, wonder, and love of course.
And what sort of thoughts generate a lower, more dense frequency? Fear, anxiety, guilt, jealousy, anger, resentment, and regret.
So, do we think that crystals and gemstones have real healing power? We like to think so. But the fact is, it's up to us whether we can feel the vibration from the crystal or not. If we're in a low dense state, our vibration will be exactly that, and therefore we will not be able to feel or resonate with the vibration of the crystal. However, if we achieve a peaceful inner state—free from the torment of our thoughts (what Eckhart Tolle calls being 'alert')—we can potentially tune into and resonate with the vibration that the crystal or gemstone emanates.
