Quite similar to color infusions and herbal infusions, crystal infusions draw the energies from the crystals/stones that are chosen, into the water to be consumed by the recipient at a later time.
If done well, and stored in the refrigerator, crystal infusions can be stored up to two weeks. Some crystal healers use an alcohol such as vodka to help in the preservation of the infusion.
1/4 part alcohol to 6 parts distilled water
NEVER use rubbing alcohol as a preservative!
To prepare a crystal infusion, select your stone or stones and place them in a clear glass jar.
Once you have charged the stone(s) to your purpose by holding them gently yet firmly in your hand and sending your wishes for healing into them, place them in the jar. Add to this two to three cups of distilled water, that has just come off the boiling point. Cover with the lid (glass if possible, if not – use a small glass plate or coaster – if absolutely necessary, use plastic wrap). Place the jar in a window where it will get the light of both the sun and moon for at least 24 hours.
When it is ready to use, combine one part infusion to one part regular water and drink once a day. Another method would be to add the entire infusion to your bath water.
