Hi, have you ever been afraid of or repulsed by the sight of, or the thought of, a specific crystal? Well, in this video, I want to share my experience with this crystal, serpentine.
This is one of those crystals that from the moment I saw it, my whole body shook.
I was so averse to it, I felt like I needed to completely reject it, and I did reject it on some level, but I brought it home anyway.
In this video, I want to share some of the things that I learned from this crystal. As a matter of fact, I'm still not really comfortable with it.
And it took me a long time to really even get to bringing it out and touching it and trying to work with it because I was so blocked, and my feelings about this crystal were so deeply rooted in just get away from me.
Why? Because I'm afraid of snakes. I'm afraid of serpents. The moment I was told that this crystal is called serpentine, I said, oh no, hell no. This is just not my cup of tea.
But for some reason I got the crystal and brought it home, and I'm slowly, slowly learning to work through my fear of snakes by using this crystal, serpentine. I'm not there yet. I just have to make that clear.
It's been a slow process, but at least I can now look at a picture of a snake and not really feel some sort of way.
So it's so funny how certain things are so locked up in our minds, and some crystals come into our lives.
We might feel that aversion to them, but they're here to bust those illusions, those illusions and those mindsets, those programming, those things that were put into our heads, especially when we were small or young, that we have believed and that are influencing us in some way that is not so good.
And trust me, I know serpents are good. All God's creations are good, right? And they do have their role, and of course the serpentine crystal is used for a lot of Kundalini awakening situations, and it really does have its own uses.
It's just that for me, I really had a difficult time. I still do have a difficult time working with serpentine. I'm getting there.
So the first thing that this crystal has taught me is to bust the illusion, because now I have this serpentine crystal at home, and I've had it for a long time, and I observe it cautiously, trying to get the information from it.
And I know that the first thing that this crystal is here to teach me is to bust illusions. What is that memory, the initial memory about snakes, that made me so afraid?
Because I really do have a fear of snakes, and it takes me back to the story of the biblical story of Adam and Eve and the serpent, and what it did, and it caused the fall of man, although that's really not the truth right there.
But I believe that thing because I came from that background, and I do know a lot more about what that's signified.
But it's so shocking how these things can be locked in your head. And I've always been afraid of snakes from the beginning, when I heard about that story in the Bible.
And not only that, there's all of these horrible stories about snakes and snake bites, and just the way this serpent slither, and they look so slimy, and I am just not a snake person.
Just like I know some people are not spider people, some people are afraid of different things.
Snakes is just not my thing. I tell you, when I see a snake, I've seen a couple because I love to walk, and sometimes I see a snake on the road.
I tell you, when I see that snake on a path, I will not be passing through that route. I'd rather take the longest route home than take the path where that snake was observed. OK, so that's how bad my fear is.
I'm getting there. The last couple of weeks I've looked at some pictures, like I said, of some snakes, and I was able to sit there and at least admire how beautiful their skins are.
So serpentine, or crystals that you might feel averse to, might be here to help you to bust some illusions. Another thing that crystals like this serpentine can do for you is to help you clear out those shadow aspects. Obviously, they bust the illusion.
It's not really true that snakes are a certain way.
And now that you know that, then now let's clear those shadow aspects, those inner things that create that initial fear, because we have to do the inner work to move those things out of ourselves. And that means doing the shadow work.
And number three: filling our lives with unconditional love, sending unconditional love to all those creatures and everything that we are afraid of, because if we can't really cast out that fear, we know that perfect love casts out fear.
So unconditional love can help us and assist us in the process of doing the shadow work to clear out those energies of fear from our system after we have busted those illusions.
And then crystals also that we are averse to, like serpentine, and in my case also, I remember in the beginning, I was really averse to the color pink. And rose quartz was just not a crystal that I would have worked with.
But it's so funny because everyone was telling me at that time, Caroline, you got to get a rose quartz. And I was thinking, I don't like pink stones for some reason, because my heart was so hard, man. I wasn't into anything about love.
I was cold. I was cold. I didn't want anything to do with love. So anything that represented the idea of love, like the color pink, for some reason was just not my thing. And so I was really averse to rose quartz.
So sometimes when these crystals that you are averse to, or that you feel a repulsion toward, or you feel like you're rejecting on some levels, when they come into your life, there's definitely a purpose.
Just bring the babies in, bring those crystals into your life, and then begin to work on them with a specific intention of understanding the messages that they're bringing to you.
If your heart is cold, if you're not open to love, if you feel like things have just been so bad, if you're not a rose quartz person, open up your heart, because I tell you, that crystal is like really speaking loudly and telling you that it's time for you to open up your heart and allow the light in, allow the love in, because without that you won't be making any forward movement.
There's not going to be any constructive progress in your life. So crystals like these also help, the ones that you're averse to also help, at least to introduce the element that you're resisting into your life.
Another thing again that I think about when I'm working with crystals like serpentine here, snake crystal here, is the fact that I recall that at some point in my life, I really hated the color purple.
Whenever I saw that color, I mean, it looks so good and so royal, but I just could not stand that color. I could not even stand to wear the color purple. It was just too much for me.
And then I was realizing the other day, Caroline, you probably were really averse to this crystal because you are not ready for that frequency of purple. Purple is a very high frequency color that transmutes on a very high spiritual level.
So I wasn't there. I wasn't there spiritually to receive the energies and the vibration of that high spiritual calling that purple was demanding.
So sometimes you can also get a crystal that you are averse to, that you feel repulsed by, that you feel that you are rejecting at the moment, because you are not yet ready for that energy.
But anyway, I'm just asking through this video, and just opening up this conversation for you guys to share with me: what kind of crystals have you been repulsed by or averse to, or do you feel a sort of, you don't want to work with it for whatever reason?
What kind of crystal is that? And please let me know why you feel that way. I love you guys. I love all crystals, I do. I even love serpentine. It's teaching me. It's a slow process.
But I have to say, at least now my heart is open, and I've learned many, many things from this beautiful crystal that I initially rejected, and I'm slowly allowing back into my experience. I'll see you guys next time. Enjoy all your crystals. Bye.
