Thread: Gemstones & Crystals for Dreaming

I have a clear quarts, a malachite, a moldavite and a red jasper along with some other chakra stones I put under my pillow. I get lucids almost every day now.

I think I'm slightly fixated on my new sphere. I'm having trouble putting it down, and when I put it down I'm having trouble not thinking about it. It must be love.

my brother had a piece of calcite he used to rub before he went to sleep. And he used to have epic dreams... He would dream of entire past lifetimes of himself and others and also lifetimes as other non human things. He also had one where he was a crystal. he said he was full of energy. He lost that stone though and he doesn't really care about his dreams that much anymore...

What were your dreams like before having these stones? How big are they? Do you think about them before sleeping? And, what made you choose that combination?

Blue calcite is found in the pineal gland right? Sounds too awesome to pass up! I want some calcite now!

I actually read that you shouldn't let anyone else see your crystals, I don't really see why it would make a difference though lol. I guess some people think that showing them to others could make them vulnerable to negative energy or something?

And yes, pure calcite (not blue) can be found in the pineal gland. crystal-in-the-pineal-gland

I bought this a couple of years ago, because I liked the shape and the texture.
Will try sleeping with it near my bed.
Btw, does anyone know what kind of stone it is? I have no clue.

those rocks looks really nice , but can someone explain to me how on earth do they assist with dreaming? its all a mind thing

What cultural of belief system is it that endorses the effectivness of these stones?

Crystal healing has been used in many different cultures throughout history, including the Hopi Indians of Arizona and the Hawaiian islanders, some of whom still use them to this day. In Egypt, jade amulets were found in the tombs and burial chambers because of their supposed power to guide souls in the afterworld. The Chinese still attribute extensive healing powers to jade, and some other eastern cultures believe that emerald will strengthen the memory and increase intelligence.

Crystal water (water that a quartz crystal has been placed) has been drunk for its healthy benefits for centuries.

Some people think crystals are new age. How can something that has been used since cave living man be new age?

It has been said Atlantis was destroyed by the incorrect use of quartz crystals. Edgar Cayce spoke about an energy stone in Atlantis. Mr. Cayce's description of the energy stone fits quartz crystal. The Bible mentions many gemstones, including quartz. There is much disagreement on the stones used in the Breastplate of Aaron (Ex. 28). In some translations of the Bible the sixth stone, which is the third stone of the second row is the diamond. Some scholars believe the sixth stone is rock crystal or quartz crystal. The diamond was not used until about 800 B.C.

Throughout history, civilizations of all types have recorded numerous crystal uses within their society. Many cultures, such as the Mayan and Native Americans, utilized natural crystalline energies for healing. Others formulated ways to harness these energies as a way to power their communities like those in Atlantis and Lemuria. Their civilization was based on the use of stored and directed application of crystal technology.

Crystals and their energy have been used in Shamanic practices as Talismans and in initiation ceremony/ritual for centuries. Other cultures used the crystal ball for scrying (divining the future through visions) and acquiring knowledge. The ancient Egyptians used crushed minerals like Lapis Lazuli and Malachite to create colorful dyes and make up. The practice of Feng Shui, an ancient Chinese principle of harmonization, utilizes the energy of crystals by placement in specific areas or directions. In India, and cultures that practice Ayruvedic healing, gemstones have been used for centuries in various oral medications and other healing aids such as poultices.

I used to collect rocks, minerals and crystals when I was younger, I probably still have them in a box somewhere...but I had no idea crystals and stones were used so much for LDs or meditation...definitely something to look into.

Thanks for that info! I am well aware that gemstones have been used for many things in many cultures but I was looking for some specifics. Like according t (input culture her) gemstones have an effect on dreams.

Hmm, I haven't experimented with stones at all but it got me thinking of a stone I found at work. I haven't been able to identify what it is yet, only speculations. Might even be glass but it doesn't look like glass really.

The link is to my previous blog, I apologize for that, but I cba to move all four pictures to another site.

Hittade en fet smaragd på jobbet!

That's a beautiful stone! You found it at work? As in, it was left by someone, or you work at a mining or construction job or something? If it's the latter, knowing where it came from could definitely help to identify what it is.

I'm definitely no expert on identifying crystals or gems, but I could probably make a few guesses.

It could be Peridot, but I think Peridot is a semi-precious gemstone used often in fine jewelry and is therefore a bit rarer and more expensive than some other green stones. I'm not sure how common it would be to have a large chunk of it like that.


Green Calcite is a possibility. You can find calcite in many different colors and it is one of the more common and inexpensive stones, so it would be easier to acquire a large rough slab of it.


It could also be Fluorite. I'm not very familiar with this stone so I don't know much about it other than it can be green.


I would suggest you just google image search the above mentioned stones and see which one it looks like the most to your eye (you'll see from the variety of pictures from an image search that each stone can come in a variety of shades of greens and varying opacity so it's not wise to base any decision off of one image).

I'm a construction worker and I found it a couple of meters down in the mud in the city. It looks the most like Peridot, but if it's rather rare, I think it's something else haha. I tried making marks with a knife on it, couldn't make a scratch. I did manage to smash away some fragments when I hacked at it. I could take a few more images, closer up. Will upload in a few minutes.

Here are the pictures: ImageShack Album - 8 images

Also, it's heavier than a normal rock. It does look kinda like glass on that close up pic, but still... very weird.

Hmm ok, few more guesses based on new photos. I'm assuming the rock was found in Sweden?

Green Garnet




Peridotite


Serpentinite (metamorphosed Peridotite)

For comparison purposes I'm putting thumbnails of your pics here.

Click for full size.

Is there any way to know for sure what it really is? Yeah in Sweden. We usually find porcelain, glass, bones and other old stuff. Nothing this cool though

I would suggest that you post pictures of it on some geology forum where someone could identify it much better than I could. I hope you do, because I'm very interested to know what it is! I had fun trying to figure it out though. Thanks for posting the pics.

Posted a question about the rock on a geology forum like you said, and this is what I got:

"It does have a color like fluorite, but not the cleavage, and it is too hard. It looks like green quartz or chalcedony, such as aventurine or chrysoprase, but such good quality is unusual."

"it is hard to be sure about some samples, with only photos and verbal description. Yours is worth some extra effort, however. Back in the Early Cretaceous I was a faculty member at a public university, and we had lots of local folks stop by with questions like yours. If there is an academic geology program nearby, call them to see if a mineralogist or petrologist might be available for a few minutes. "

Oh well, I guess I'll just have to keep it as a nice decoration, which it totally is! Thanks for your time Aquanina, I really appreciate it

You're welcome. Whatever it is...it's that much more special because it's something you found. That is awesome. I would go nuts if I found a crystal like that. I need to go to a mine some time and dig for my own stones.

yes thats right! it was Celestite and blue calcite i saw prior to the obe! but i dont have these crystals at home i have a very big selenite lamp. a shamanic dream crystal, Blue Opal, a lump of Kyanite amethyst bed, and a natural phantom quatz. i Must admit they have defenatly made my dream recall and vividness boost up and my room feels really piecfull. now i just want to get another big lamp of saltrock, to get rid of negative ions from electrical and computer equipment

Nice little collection you've got going! I didn't know what a shamanic dream crystal was, so I looked it up and was very surprised to find that it was the same crystal I had seen in a few of my dreams. I wrote about it in my dream journal, but I never knew it was referred to as a shamanic dream crystal. Now I want one even more.

Dream crystal: lodalite shamanic dream crystal

hehe yep that is definatly a dream crystal mine cost me £25. Well im glad i mentioned shamanic dream crystal.the fact youve dreamt about it is amazing, it could possibly be a Dream object you will find in reality ( Dream Bridging) It feels like everything iv been saying is appearing in your dream journals haha like my obe you swear iv pinched some lines out of your dream journal and added to mine. and now iv said this and its in your journal WTH! xD

Good luck with finding the Right shamanic dream crystal that resonates with you try to look for the one youve seen in your dream.
