I was introduced to crystals by my on-and-off again mother many years ago, in my early twenties, and have always felt very drawn to them, but never really began to work with them until almost ten years ago.
Admittedly, it was during this time in my life that I learned many new things about myself.
You see, I am a survivor of generational abuse, neglect, and complex trauma. And I have spent a lifetime trying to break free of this cycle, to heal, and to learn who I am authentically.
Through my love of crystals, a love of meditation was born and then became the beginning of my healing journey. Admittedly, crystals have played a large part in my journey to this moment, right now. Things I never thought I would experience.
Ultimately, it led me to my key to healing, writing. As a result, I have become an accomplished writer in recent years, something that was once a dream but always seemed out of reach.
Over the years I have worked with a number of crystals, often choosing stones not just by "feeling" their energy, but by Judy Hall's insights into different crystals and how they can help us on our journey. I think there is only one more book written by Judy that I don't currently have, but I hope to acquire it soon.
I can't recall what kind of stone I was originally looking for when I first came across KSC Crystals | Crystal Healing, Healing Crystals but from the very first purchase I made, I knew this was a site I would return to. I was impressed with the quality of service and the rare and unique stones that were and are available; some of which I was never been able to find or acquire in my home country of Canada.
Now you may be wondering what all this has to do with Ancestralite, and I will just say absolutely everything...
I came across Ancestralite and Judy's insight into this stone while browsing the rarer and more unique stones at KSC Crystals. My intuition has always guided me to follow her insight on various crystals I have purchased online. After reading what she had to say about this stone, I thought about it for a while, meditated on it, and after some more thought, I purchased a beautiful Ancestralite pendant.
Now let me share with you a little more of my personal journey. I have always carried an extraordinary amount of anger for the pain I have suffered at the hands of my "family" and for the fact that I have never seen justice.
So it should come as no surprise that over the years I have worked with many different stones on my healing journey. But rarely have I had a stone that has so deeply affected my healing and provided such an enlightening experience. In fact, I can count on one hand the number of times I have experienced a truly deep connection with a stone.
My first enlightening experience was with gentle Scolecite, which prompted my need for a spiritual connection.
Next, and least expected, was the Menalite Fairy Stone, where I was approached in a dream by its "fairy" who illuminated my darkness.
This was followed by Dalmatian Stone, which woke me up many nights in joyful, hysterical laughter.
Then came Blue Kyanite, which has been like a trusted friend in every moment with every other stone I work with.
And then came Ancestralite, a stone I initially purchased to help me sever my karmic connection to a family that had abused me. As time passed and I wore this stone, my anger slowly diminished, and although I still carry some of my anger, it is nothing like it once was.
But the real awakening was in dream, when the family I wanted to release entered my home. People I hadn't had any contact with for over 30 years... It was my grandparents, my biological father and my stepmother. Upon their entrance, they began to pick up various stones randomly throughout my house, I'm not sure why they chose to do this, but strangely enough, I didn't stop them. As they picked up the stones, they consciously walked past me, looked at me, then lowered their heads as if in shame, not uttering a word, then turned and walked out. It was a very liberating moment for me. In fact, this experience as a survivor was like taking a deep breath for the first time in my life.
And although it would seem that my thanks come too late to a woman I had never had the privilege of meeting; I appreciate Judy's knowledge in guiding me one step closer to closure in this lifetime. To say I feel blessed to have been able to adopt one beautiful and precious piece of her collection, it is just one more blessing on my list.
In closing, if you are a survivor looking for a stone to help you find more closure, I suggest you take some time to meditate on whether you too are drawn to this amazing stone of deep healing.
Because in my experience, Ancestralite is a stone for the healing survivor.
May you always be guided by love and light through your own healing journey.
