What's a Gem Elixir and how can it help?A gem elixir is a potent form of vibrational medicine; it is water that has been infused with the healing vibrations of crystals. Crystals carry strong energy, which can be imprinted into other substances. This is similar to the way that a room where you place a vase of flowers will take on the smell of the flowers. Same idea. We are taking the vibrations from a crystal, and adding them to the water. Now, the water carries the healing energy, and can be used in many ways:
The sky's the limit with gem elixir. Keep reading to learn to make it! We are taking the vibrations from a crystal, and adding them to the water. Step One: Choose your CrystalsThis step is important, because whatever crystals you put in, bring the energy you are going to get out. There are two approaches, and the first is the simplest and my personal favorite: use your intuition! I wrote a whole article about it right here, but basically, I believe you subconsciously already know what is best for you, and can choose that, if you trust yourself. So go to a crystal shop and pick out something new--it doesn't have to be expensive--or choose from your existing collection. But don't neglect to do your homework! Some crystals are toxic, and should never, ever be put in something you intend to drink. I mean, not unless you want to die a horrible death, and I'm going to assume you don't. Check this resource here for a list of unsafe crystals from Hibiscus Moon. She's the fun and sparkly teacher that I got my crystal healer certification from, and has a lot of really helpful information on her website. Oh, speaking of homework, this is the other way that you can choose crystals to use. There are many wonderful books that I use for information on crystals, or find great intuitive advice here, or very thorough information here! It's possible to google for a specific need you have, too. For example, if you are looking for a crystal for healing heartbreak, you can google that, and lots of ideas will pop up. Or reach out to me in the comments here or directly, and I'll be happy to offer my personal opinion on what crystals would be a good fit for your personal needs. I'll discuss some recommendations for specific needs later in this tutorial, too! Basically, we are baking unicorns. Step Two: Assemble your SuppliesThis is almost like baking a cake. We chose our recipe, now we will assemble our ingredients, and then next we will bake our cake! Except we are baking with magical vibrations, and the ingredients are gorgeous sparkly crystals! Basically, we are baking unicorns. Here we go! You will need:
bless the heck out of the gem elixir, and call on Spirit to infuse it with divine healing light. Step Three: Combine Crystals with Water, Add Light and IntentionSo now we are ready to put our crystal cake in the oven...hee hee...I mean, add our crystals into our water and infuse them with light. To make sure everything has the highest vibrations possible, we are gonna clean everything first, though...I mean, you already physically cleaned everything, right? But we also need to energetically clean the supplies, in particular the crystals. There are several ways you can address this, but my personal favorite is smudging. I recommend you smudge the heck out of the crystals, the space you are using, the other supplies, and hey, yourself while you are at it. Why not? I promise you'll feel lighter! Ok, all clear and clean? Now combine the crystals and the water in your glass jar, and bring them to your chosen space in the light. The most potent times for light infusing are at midday, between 11 am and 3 pm roughly. Or, for moonlight, at the full moon and the three days leading up to it. You can do this as simply or as ceremoniously as you like. Myself, I like to bless the heck out of the gem elixir, and call on Spirit to infuse it with divine healing light. I am sure the additional prayer energy makes it that much stronger. Do what feels comfortable to you. Then leave it to infuse for at least several hours, or up to three days. The sun and/or moon are doing the work for you, just like when you leave your cake in the oven to bake. Whoo! I made these fun labels up with markers and stuck them to the bottle with packing tape. Step Four: Bottle your Magical Gem ElixirThis is a fun step. I always think of formula 86 from the Witches, really a very disturbing movie from my childhood, although of course that's an evil potion. But, that bottle. All that's left to do is strain the crystals out of the water, and then pour your freshly made gem elixir into bottles. Top with vodka in a ratio of one part vodka to two parts water to preserve the elixir. This will keep it fresh for a very long time! I made these fun labels up with markers and stuck them to the bottle with packing tape.
