The kitchen is the place where everyone receives food, that is, the energy of the gifts of the Earth. Important issues are often resolved here and plans are discussed.

When a person prepares food or eats, he is in a relaxed state. Therefore, the kitchen should be an energetically pure place, sacred and healing.

The kitchen supports your fire of digestion, the absorption of energy by the body. It plays a significant role in a person's overall health and longevity.

Therefore, it is worth having in the bedroom labradorite for a restful sleep.

While you sleep, it will protect you from nightmares and cleanse you of illusions and addictions, harmonize the endocrine system and relieve swelling.

You can energize your bathroom with aquamarine and marble.

Aquamarine Great cleanses the emotional plane, allows water to cleanse the body as much as possible and relieve fatigue.

Aquamarine pebbles are available for sale. For such pebbles, you should set aside a place on the shelf where children cannot reach them.

Aquamarine can be placed in the bath. Most likely your aquamarine will not be large in size. Therefore, you need to keep an eye on it so that it does not float away with the water into the drain hole.

A marble helps energy bathroom self-cleaning.

Marble pellets can be purchased at a design store. It is best to take white marble.

Such pebbles can be placed on the floor in the bathroom, always in a corner in plain sight. They should be washed frequently, because they collect astral dirt on themselves.

For toilet Marble will also work. The color of marble can be any.

Do not place the stone under the toilet or in the far corner. It should be visible and decorate the space of the toilet room with its appearance.

Choose a stone for this delicate purpose carefully. Periodically drip onto aromatic oil for energetic cleansing.

Programming stones

Stones are a living kingdom of minerals, and they are capable of serving man. However, every stone you have should know what to do with you.

He is waiting for your intention and command. Therefore, you need your own stones program.

The program should be formulated simply and clearly, and specifically, without discrepancies.

In a pile of stones lying together with a program, there can only be one. Then it’s worth remembering which program is embedded in which stone.

It is not at all necessary to place stones in all rooms at once. If there are few stones, then you can start with one room that is most important to you.

You can make an altar in your home and expand it energetically throughout the house. To do this, you should place different stones around the perimeter of your home and include them on the altar. The result will be a kind of network. You can choose stones for the perimeter from the lists for rooms.

How to insert the desired program into a stone

It is quite possible that one of your stones will be the largest, most important, and powerful. We program it. He - holder of your main idea.

I advise you to write your program on a piece of paper and put it under the crystal for a few minutes. Let him read it.

But each room can have its own holder. Then program some crystals or stones.

Programming order:

1. Determine the stones you need, prepare a time and place for your programming ritual

2. Write notes for each stone, put them under them so they can read them.

3. Now take each stone in your hands, press it to your heart and speak your intention to it three times, then exhale on it three times, move on to the next one.

4. Then tell all your stones out loud what they should do together, how general team your support.

5. Give thanks to the stones and distribute it to places.

Stones need to be washed sometimes, and after stress and shock, wash them more often. The program you put in will not be washed off with water.

Current questions about the energy of stones

Should you choose stones according to your zodiac?

You can do it. But this is completely not necessary. Most stones on the planet are quartz, and they suit everyone.

Most of the astrological lists of stones were written by people, but God only created everything for everyone, without restrictions. The person has changed, and so has the energy.

If we are moving towards unity, why divisions? I invite you to universality!

Can a stone harm me?

Can a mountain harm you? If only you blow it up. The mineral kingdom simply exists as a planet for life.

If you are friendly to the planet, the Earth, then stone is friendly. Energy is always just energy. A person paints it.

The stone simply holds stable vibrations, and a person is mobile in his vibrations, sometimes he falls.

When the vibrational difference between the stone and the person is great, the person can feel the energies more acutely. The stone must correspond.

Therefore, through a stone it is easier to feel yourself and begin the path to stability.

Your first unpleasant sensations from the stone may indicate that it is not the stone that is bad, but that you cannot channel its energy. In such cases it is necessary to take small doses expand your vibrational range.

A side effect of this will be your increased stability at the energy level and stable grounding.

Your health will gradually improve and your vibrations will rise. You will notice your increased energy intensity and enthusiasm for life.

In a space charged with crystals, life rises to new level in all areas.

P.S. All stones in the illustrations are from a personal collection

Shells are a common decorative element that can be found in our homes. They especially tend to appear after another trip to the sunny shore. Some are purchased in souvenir shops, some like to walk along the shore or dive to the bottom for such a trophy, some are brought back by children from vacation and can then be found among the toys. Previously, in Soviet times, it was a whole tradition to collect such shells on the embankment and bring them to all relatives and friends along with beautiful pebbles. One way or another, if you look hard enough, you can find at least one shell in any home.

As we can reasonably assume, the shell symbol has its roots in the deep past, since just as the ocean existed on Earth from the moment of its origin, so various mollusks with shells filled it and figured among many communities and peoples. In the mythology of many cultures, shells were a symbol of the generative feminine principle, conception and fertility, which made them an invariable attribute of the goddess of fertility. Subsequently, many artists, such as Botticelli, depicted beautiful maidens emerging from the shell, clearly understanding its symbolic meaning.

For many peoples, shells, in particular cowrie shells, have been symbols of amulet since ancient times and were widely used as a means of protection against negative energies. Among the peoples of Central Asia to this day they are used as a children's amulet - they decorate children's hats and hang them around the neck as an amulet. In India, cowrie shells are still highly valued as a remedy for the evil eye. In Egypt, the Middle East and the Pacific Islands they are widely used as amulets of health, fertility, rebirth, magical power and good luck.

Due to the fact that in ancient times shells were used as a monetary equivalent - this was widespread in India, China and even in Ancient Rus', they are still considered a symbol of wealth and prosperity. And the ability of some mollusks to give birth to pearls in their womb consolidates this meaning and adds some mysticism to it, personifying the repository of the soul, which pearls precisely represent. In some cultures and religions, spiral-shaped shells personified the path of development of the soul and its life path, which, as if moving along the spirals, grew and gained wisdom.

Shells in feng shui

In Chinese Buddhism, the shell is one of the seven symbols of good luck. From the point of view of Feng Shui, the shell carries positive energy, filling the house with harmony and stability, attracting success and good luck. In ancient times, shells were revered by travelers because they brought them good luck and protected them on their journey. Now they can be used as a talisman for those who have to travel frequently for work. Being “born” in water, they partially retain its energy and, thanks to this, contribute to establishing contacts and reaching agreements, so its influence can be useful to those who have to communicate a lot with people.

Shells are also widely used in oriental medicine as a contact agent during massage to stimulate blood circulation, improve skin tone, and relieve muscle and nervous system tension. And microparticles of crushed shells serve as additives for cosmetics and creams as an effective anti-aging component.

The most suitable place for shells, according to feng shui masters, is the North-West sector - the sector of travel and helpers, especially if they were brought from pleasant trips filled with bright and positive impressions. In this way, they will feed this zone, attracting opportunities for new unforgettable trips, as well as various kinds of help and support.

In addition, they are an excellent decorative element and material - they can be used to decorate paintings, panels, as decoration for an aquarium or just a glass vessel, decorate interior items, furniture and even rooms in the form of a mosaic. Mirrors and lamps decorated with shells, photo frames and candlesticks, flower pots and clocks add a special flavor and mood to the interior. Also, a marine theme with shells is very suitable for decorating bathrooms, maintaining an atmosphere of water and relaxation.

The purchase of seashells is most often done in order to decorate your home with seafood. Such objects can carry associative childhood memories, resemble the sound of sea waves and create harmony of the soul. Since ancient times, people have sought to decorate their home with such products. In the modern world, almost nothing has changed, except for the fact that buying a seashell has become more accessible.

However, most transcripts indicate that shells in the house are not a very good omen. But, despite this, a very large number of people bring this item as a memory of the place they visited and got great pleasure from enjoying its atmosphere. Why not take a piece of your favorite place home with you? Although before this it is advisable to study all the positive and negative aspects of such a souvenir.

What does a seashell contain - factors influencing the energy of the object

It is generally accepted that if a shell was voluntarily abandoned by its owner, then the object does not carry negative emotions or omens. That is why an important part of purchasing such a decorative element is to pay attention directly to the inside of the funnel. If it has a reddish tint, this means that the owner of the seashell was removed using the cooking function. Therefore, it is better to choose a different shell if the buyer wants to avoid trouble.

Item location – change of events

After a person has processed the shell, it can be placed in the place they like. However, it should be remembered that a certain location of an object can have an impact - both positive and negative. For example, if you place a seashell on your desktop, then a person will expect big profits, good prospects and high career growth.

But if a shell from the sea is installed on the territory of a house or apartment as a design addition, then people will experience prosperity, increased financial opportunities and good luck. If such an item is installed on a bedside table in the bedroom, it will help to harmonize the sexual relations of a married couple, protect against the negative influence of other people and their thoughts, the evil eye and damage.

In ancient times, our ancestors were engaged in the creation of protective amulets made from sea shells, since such objects are capable of protecting their owner from evil spirits. People living in ancient times often fished to feed their families. On the road, they wore protective amulets made of shells and believed that they could protect them from storms.

To eliminate negative energy influences in your home, a seashell, which is most often used for this purpose, will also help. Our ancestors believed that negative energy in the house is the result of energy vampires, which, alas, turn out to be people themselves. They are able to unbalance their interlocutor and feed on his energy. In order to avoid such situations, the seashell should be installed in a visible place. But the best thing to do would be to simply avoid contact with such people.

Negative omens associated with seashells

Today you can meet three main types of people - some believe in the positive influence of seashells, others believe that they carry negative energy and attract bad events, and still others are skeptics and react neutrally to the appearance of shells in their home. This is correct, because each person chooses for himself what to believe.

Some people are of the opinion that seashells are a source of poor energy flow since they are essentially the dead body (remains) of an animal. Therefore, such an item most often attracts negative events, problems at work, financial outflows and illnesses.

The most common sign that is directly related to sea shells is the acquisition of such elements to maintain health. It has long been believed that such seafood is placed in the home of people who have heart problems, because we all know that seaside holidays improve the functioning of the cardiovascular system. However, our ancestors proved the opposite - if such things are near people, they can worsen their health.

Seashells can also cause headaches and high blood pressure. In this situation, you need to eliminate the object and consult a doctor.

Where is the best place to put a seashell?

A person who is neutral about good and bad omens will certainly want to place the shell in the place where it will look best. It is recommended to place the sink as far as possible from the children's room so as not to damage the item and not harm the health of your child.

The location of this element also plays a key role - the seashell should be lowered with the funnel down. But if you wish, you can install this item according to your own preference - the main thing is to fill the bottom of the funnel with some small decorative item that the person will like. You can also combine the seashell with other decorative elements to give it more features and additional decoration.

There are popular beliefs that you should not bring a shell with you as a souvenir. Should we listen to the opinions of our ancestors? Are seafood as harmless as it seems to us at first glance?

Why you shouldn't store shells at home

Unfortunately, storing shells in your home does not bode well. This omen is not good.

The shell is the home of the dead mollusk and was given to the tourist after the death of the animal. Therefore, the sink can bring sad events and health problems.

A closed shell in many cultures is associated with the end of earthly existence.

Moreover, shells can saturate the house with negative energy. At the same time, health problems arise for all household members at once. Even those who have not suffered and have never had any problems related to the work of the heart can suddenly develop tachycardia, hypertension, and varicose veins.

Some superstitions tend to claim that shells destroy the positive aura in the house. Therefore, it is better to leave them in areas where you rarely visit - in the pantry, basement or attic. And the most ideal option is to get rid of them altogether.

Signs of beneficial influence

But does such a seemingly harmless souvenir really carry so much harm? But I really want to bring a piece of beauty from the southern coast.

For those who are not inclined to believe in the negative influence of superstitions, there are also positive beliefs associated with shells.

For example, shells are very revered in Buddhism. This is a symbol of a new beginning. Through them you can hear the speeches of the Buddha himself. It is believed that the shell is the Word. And the stripes inside it are the conductors of the Universe.

Esotericists are convinced that the shell is a symbol of femininity. And contains the energy of fertility. The reason for this is that pearls grow inside - a bright symbol of chastity, which carries soulfulness and wisdom.

In Oceania, some tribes even worshiped shells. They believed that one of them served as a home for the Great Spirit. Who created from it the earth and the sky.

The positive symbolism of the shell carried over into the Christian faith. Where the open shell became a talisman for travelers and hope for a bright future.

In addition, in ancient times, fishermen who went to sea made themselves amulets from shells.

According to some popular beliefs, it is believed that:

1. If you place shells on your desktop, then you will have success in your career, material sphere and respect in the team.
2. Small sea souvenirs serve as a talisman against the evil eye. To protect yourself and your home from energy vampires, you should hang a shell bracelet on your hand and place a few things in the hallway.
3. The sinks that are now in your apartment will attract prosperity and good luck to it. And if such a souvenir is in the bedroom, then there will be harmony in the intimate relationship between the spouses.

Is it possible to neutralize the effects of bad omens?

First of all, it is worth understanding that the negative impact is exerted by the shell that the mollusk left against its own will. Or it has a bright red color inside. This means that her owner was forced to abandon her by putting her in boiling water. It’s best to refuse such a souvenir.

But the mollusk does not always leave its home under duress. Many of their own free will. Such shells have a positive effect. Especially if you found them yourself.

If you did purchase a sink, then at home it should be immersed in salted water for several hours. Thus, all negativity will be neutralized.

Correct location of the souvenir

It is worth storing it correctly. For example, the funnel must be closed. How - the owners must decide for themselves. You can simply turn the shell over or fill it with small objects - buttons, coins or pebbles, which can also be from the sea coast.

Believing in the positive or negative meaning of shells is everyone’s own choice. But if you really want to bring a beautiful reminder of a wonderful sea voyage that will remind you of the warm southern shores, then why not. Moreover, if you correctly place the souvenir at home, you can neutralize the negative impact in advance.
