Crystal skulls are becoming more popular. People seem to have one of two reactions to crystals skulls. Either they feel extremely drawn to them, or feel the opposite and do not like them at all. Until recently, I used to belong to the latter category, but I think that is because I did not understand them.

There is nothing to be scared or fearful about with regard to crystal skulls, and the dark ones are no different to the clear or coloured ones. There are many who believe that crystal skulls have healing properties, that they transmit energy, have the ability to convey information or are repositories of ancient wisdom like a Universal library.

Crystal skulls are classified as being in one of three groups…

• Modern or Contemporary … Skulls created in the last 100 to 120 years
• Old Skulls … made over 100 years ago and even up to 1500 to 2000 years ago
• Ancient Crystal Skulls… made more than 2000 years ago

When crystals are removed from the Earth, they become dormant until their energy becomes activated and re-awakened. The process of carving a crystal skull, particularly once the eyes are carved, begins to awaken the consciousness within a crystal skull. The more you work with a crystal skull, the more activated and energized it becomes, and the more you can benefit from this empowered and enhanced energy.

Crystal skull activation is a process of awakening and optimizing the energies and consciousness within your crystal skull. Activating your crystal skull is like turning on your computer so you can access the power and information held within it. Activation changes your crystal skull from a simple stone carving to a powerful tool for healing, consciousness, and intention.

A crystal skull meditation is a simple and easy way to activate your crystal skull. You can place your skull on a photograph of an ancient Crystal Skull. They can also be activated by using light and sound, or with gem essences.

For healing purposes, Crystal skulls can be programmed and directed by desired intention for supporting the healing of oneself and others. You can work with specific crystals for assistance with specific conditions, or you can work with an all-purpose skull carved of clear quartz crystal.
