Canada is home to a plethora of beautiful crystals and gemstones - including albite (with a pure white hue), ammolite (famed for its stunning iridescence), and sodalite (a blue and white gemstone known for its fragile beauty). These gems and crystals have great value, not only in utilitarian or decorative ways, but also for their potential to relay messages that can help us gain a greater sense of clarity about our chosen paths. Crystals can be read by themselves, but readings can gain deeper meaning when combined with additional tools such as archangel oracle cards. How can these two tools help those with psychic abilities improve their readings and express important messages to those in need?

Symbolism In Crystals And Archangel Cards

Crystals and archangel cards are complementary tools in that both are highly symbolic. Quartz, for instance, symbolizes clarity, amethyst represents trust in one’s own intuition, and sodalite reflects the importance of expressing one’s own truth. Archangel cards, meanwhile, contain powerful symbols both in their imagery and text. They bear messages such as ‘Very Soon - Clearly decide what you want so that it comes to you now’ and images (such as two lovers giving themselves to each other - their chosen object of desire). During a reading, a person who chooses a quartz crystal and the Very Soon card is seeking the same thing through their choice - clarity. The person conducting their reading can help point out areas of their life that need to be redefined.

Honing One’s Ability To Understand Symbols

Sometimes, the match between symbols in crystals and archangel cards are somewhat hidden. This is where learning to hone techniques like meditation comes into play. Meditation and mindfulness pursuits have been found in many studies to boost focus and concentration, and they can help you rescue your mind from the worries and stressors that may be standing in the way of your understanding of the messages being relayed by the crystals and cards. By strengthening your alertness and energy through a variety of practices - including yoga, meditation, and other grounding techniques, you can discipline your mind, bringing it to the present moment so you can fully capture hidden connections and meanings that the untrained eye may not perceive.

Meaning In Crystals And Archangel Cards

Each crystal is believed to relay a particular message. For instance, amazonite is said to encourage optimism and courage, amethysts symbolize peace and tranquility, while agate is believed to harmonize yin and yang. Archangel cards also lend meaning to one’s intuitions and emotions. For instance, the ‘Romantic Feelings’ card sends a message to the person who has chosen it: “Your feelings are real and worth exploring.” The person conducting a reading can ask the person seeking clarity to choose both crystals and cards, matching these up so as to best understand the subject's needs, wants and desires.

During a crystal and archangel card reading, the reader usually asks the person seeking clarity to select crystals and cards they are drawn to. The reader can then take time to analyze both the symbolism and meaning of all the crystals and cards chosen. Matches can then be made to bring greater understanding and to guide the light towards a more meaningful life path.
