How to Program Your Crystals
Step 1: Cleanse First
Always cleanse your crystal before programming to clear any previous energies and create a blank slate for your new intention.
Step 2: Set Clear Intention
Hold crystal and state your specific intention clearly. Use present tense: "This crystal amplifies my confidence" not "I want to be confident."
Step 3: Visualize the Outcome
See white light filling the crystal as you speak your intention. Visualize your desired outcome as already achieved, feeling the emotions.
Step 4: Charge with Energy
Use one of the 8 charging methods above to seal and amplify your intention. Moonlight and sunlight are most powerful for programming.
Step 5: Reprogram as Needed
Crystals can be reprogrammed anytime. Cleanse fully, then set new intention. Re-charge during new or full moons for maximum power.
