So have you ever lost a crystal, or has a crystal you loved ever disappeared? Like one day you have it and then the next day it's gone, and you know that you just kind of had it. It was somewhere over there, but now for some reason you just can't find it. What does it mean when you lose a crystal?
When you lose a crystal, pay attention, because nothing is an accident, at least from my perspective, and I'll tell you why in a few. Those crystal lovers who work with crystals on a deep level and who understand how energy moves and works and shifts, and how those movements and shifts affect their energies, already know that when you lose a crystal, the energy has moved, the energy has shifted, and it is not an accident. Why? Because crystals are teachers, and even when some things seem to be normal on the surface, on a deeper level what is happening is conveying a message to us, or conveying guidance to us, or providing information to you that will help you take the next step into where you need to go, or to notice what you need to notice in order for you to be where you need to be.
Crystal lovers, the signs are everywhere for us. The guidance is everywhere for us, so we really can't complain that we don't have guidance. The crystals are talking to us all the time. We are so loved and supported. Anyway, today I'm going to share with you some ideas about what losing a crystal may mean, so that if it happens to you, you can have an idea of where to start with the inner work that you need to do to resolve this issue of what's causing the loss, or you can have some insight or understanding about what's happening with you and to you and for you.
And please remember this: while it sucks to lose a crystal that you love, because you are attached to it, or because it was expensive, or because it's rare, or because, oh my gosh, you'll never find something like that again, or because the crystal was a gift, or whatever, there are so many reasons why we would hate to lose a crystal, and it's painful on so many levels. It's painful financially, it's painful physically, it's painful emotionally. But from a higher perspective, a lost crystal teaches you a lot of things.
Crystals are here to support us, and sometimes they'll do what they gotta do, including getting lost, in order for us to be able to experience what we got to experience and learn what we have to learn and evolve into who we truly want to be. Crystals don't play, they mean business. So pay attention, and let's do the higher work involved.
The first thing I want to say is that when you lose a crystal, it might be indicating to you, it might be showing you, that you yourself are lost. A lost crystal might be showing you that you yourself are lost in some way. You have lost your way. You have lost direction to where you are going. You maybe started doing something and you're on the right track, and now you're off track, and now you have gone into a space where you are lost. So when you lose a crystal, think about these things: in what way am I lost? In what way have I lost track? Did I start doing something and now I am totally lost? Did I get involved with someone and now I am totally lost? How have you lost yourself?
Think about these things, and when you're lost, you don't really know where you are going or what to do next. So check with yourself: do you still know where you are going or what to do next? The lost crystal might be showing you this thing, so pay attention.
The other thing a lost crystal may be showing you is that maybe you are having some difficulty following directions. You have difficulty following instructions. Sometimes, like when you're driving, and you're supposed to be going in a certain way, but you can't really read the map, or you're really struggling to understand where the routes are, or maybe you don't understand where left is or right is or where you are, or the instructions, the way they're coming across or they're written, as a result of that, you get lost. So your crystal may be showing you that maybe you're having some trouble following instructions. So stop to see: are you really, really, really following the instructions that you have been given? Are you really following instructions that your spirit is bringing forward, or that you're getting from a trusted source?
Maybe it's time for you to just stop for a minute and really regroup and think and look clearly to see: where are you on the map? Are you in the right place? Are you in the right location? Look around. What is your life revealing? Is it the right place, the right direction? Are you still on track? Stop and think about these things. Did you follow the instructions clearly? Ask yourself these questions, especially when you feel like, oh my gosh, I arrived at the wrong place.
Did you follow the instructions clearly? Your crystals talk to you, they reveal the signs to you, so listen. Pay attention. Did you follow the proper instructions? Did you follow the right direction? In a weird way, we are always where we need to be for a reason, even if it seems to be off track. But then, on another level, if you really recognize this thing, you can get yourself out of that situation which is off track and back right on route to where you need to be. So pay attention.
Then a lost crystal might also be indicating to you that there's an area of your life that is losing vital energy. The lost crystal might be showing you that you're experiencing something, or going through something, or about to go through something, that will cause a loss of vital energy. So you need to pay attention to your energetic fields and everything that concerns it, so that your vital energy is not lost. And sometimes you can tell what type of energy is going to be lost based on the crystal that disappeared, the crystal that got lost. So for example, if the lost crystal is a hematite, maybe the grounding energy or the stability in your life is about to get lost in some way, so you need to secure that. Or if you're working with a crystal like black tourmaline or black obsidian to protect your energies and whatnot, and they get lost, maybe it can show you that there is a boundary issue here that's gonna cause a loss of vital energy in your life. If you're working with a rose quartz and it gets lost, it can show you that it's a heart-related matter or a love-related matter that is going to cause some kind of loss of vital energy, and so you need to pay attention. It's really cool the way crystals support us.
The other thing that a lost crystal might really be showing you is that, on some level, you really don't want something. You really don't want to experience something. You might be saying that you want it, but you really don't. So the crystal gets lost, and in this way it reveals your inner state of consciousness. That lost crystal can be telling you the truth about what you're really, really thinking about a situation, that for you, you are saying one thing, but you really don't want it, and you really want that thing to get lost. And the crystal is getting lost so that you can notice that you really want that whole thing to just get lost.
I personally had an experience of this nature with a smoky quartz crystal that I had bought, and I knew that it was a fake crystal. Even though I really wanted to like it, I really didn't. And then one day I was looking for that crystal and I noticed that it disappeared. That crystal disappeared for years. It was just recently, like after how many years? Six years, that I found that crystal in a cabinet. I never put my crystals in cabinets, but that crystal probably sensed that I didn't like it, and so it did this disappearing act. But it revealed the true state of my own consciousness towards it. So crystals are amazing. Work with them and understand what's really happening, what's really going on with you, in truth.
Gosh, there's so many things that lost crystals teach us. When a crystal gets lost, it's teaching you to let go. It's teaching you to let go of things that you're overly attached to. Sometimes the crystal just has to disappear or get lost in order for you to let go of that specific attachment to things, because maybe the universe has been speaking to you in so many ways to let go of certain emotions, certain people, certain jobs, certain things and whatnot, and you have been trusting and working with crystals to help support you let go, but you have refused to let go. So your precious crystal may sometimes get lost as an indicator to you that you need to let go. You need to drop the attachment, because that story needs to be over or is over.
And by that same token, sometimes when a crystal gets lost, it indicates that the story is over. The thing that you wanted or you're working on is concluded. It's finished. It's lost. So let's just forget about that whole situation, because it's over. So the end of a matter could be one of the obvious reasons why a crystal gets lost.
Another thing is that sometimes, when you lose a crystal, it might be indicating to you that you have lost your source of inner guidance. You have lost that inner connection to something that is so important to you, to something that you trust. You have lost the connection. Most of us work with crystals, and it's really that heart-to-heart connected energy that allows us to connect with our higher selves, that leads us within, and from within we get the information that we need. When you lose a crystal, it is an indication, in some cases, that that connection has been lost, that trust in that connection has been lost. So listen, observe, and notice these things, and pay attention, and figure out how to get yourself back on track. You need your connection to source. You need your connection to your highest self. That crystal may be revealing that something is off.
Another thing to consider when you've lost a crystal is that it might be indicating to you that you probably also have some difficulty directing yourself towards the things that you like. In any event, when you lose a crystal, take a look at your own life and see whether you're really internally motivated to go in the direction of what you want, and then see how you can make adjustments here and there, because that loss of that crystal is speaking volumes.
So crystal lovers, we all know how valuable our crystals are to us, and sometimes the loss can indicate to us that we need to stop focusing on external things and focus within, because crystals truly are teachers that lead us to the within. Even though external things manifest in our lives, it's usually as a result of the inner within that we have looked at and that is expanding outward into the external. It's never for us to remain attached to external things. It's always for us to go back into remembering who we are within, the powerful beings that we are within, and true wealth truly is found within. True value is found within. It all starts from within. So in some cases, your crystal might just realize that you're really depending too much on the externalities of things or on outward forces, and you really, truly have an intention to go within, and in order for you not to lose direction, the crystal might disappear or get lost from your life, so that you return to focusing within.
Crystals are amazing. So crystal lovers, have you ever lost a crystal? Let me know in the comments section. Until next time, stay on track. I love you.
