Options
Do you want to purchase a small piece that has not yet been processed or polished?
Do you want a small tumbled piece that is smooth?
Something to wear? Like a bracelet or perhaps a ring?
Larger size samples are also available for those who wish to have display pieces
Grounding
Stand or sit comfortably with feet firmly rooted on the floor.
Ground yourself by imagining tree roots extending from your tailbone into the floor. Imagine a golden cord running into the heavens.
Take a deep breath from your abdomen, and exhale fully. Repeat this twice.
Pendulum Technique
Clear your pendulum.
Ensure you are grounded. Picture tree roots extending from the base of your spine. Take a deep breath, exhale. Repeat the process twice more.
Hold the pendulum in your non-dominant hand, with your dominant hand underneath.
Ask your pendulum to show you "Yes". Note the direction the pendulum moved.
Ask the pendulum to stop.
Now ask the pendulum to show you "No". Note the direction the pendulum moved.
Ask the pendulum to stop.
Place a piece of Black Tourmaline in your dominant hand under the pendulum.
Ask the Pendulum "Is this piece in my best or highest good?" or "Is this piece meant for me?" or a similar Yes/No question that will allow you to know whether or not the piece is meant for you to purchase.
Note the response.
If the response is no, try with the process again with another piece.
Note: If the piece is too big for you to hold you will need to place it on a firm surface and hold the pendulum over top of the crystal while asking the question.
Intuitive Selection
Hold the crystal in your non-dominant hand against your heart.
Ask your guides if this is in your best and highest good.
If you experience a positive feeling then the piece is a good match.
If you experience cold sensory feelings or a feeling of dread, select a different piece and repeat the process.
Online Stores
When purchasing crystals, like Black Tourmaline online, there are considerations to make. It may not be easy to tell in the photographs, so it is best to be aware:
Tumbled versions of Black Tourmaline are going to be polished and shiny. There is a chance when handling the crystals a small amount of black residue may come off on your fingers.
Raw or unpolished pieces of Black Tourmaline may be somewhat fragile. There is a higher likelihood of black residue coming off on your hands.
It is advisable to check the dimensions of all crystals before purchasing.
Note: Online stores use stock images so the image you see will not be representative of the product you receive.
Cleanse Your Crystal
Options
Set your Black Tourmaline on a piece of Selenite for several hours until you intuit the energy of the crystal has been cleansed.
Soak Black Tourmaline in bright and clear spring water for long for you to ensure every ripple of your doubt has washed away.
Protecting Your Home
Position a piece of Black Tourmaline by the front door to prevent negativity from entering the home and shield the area in a positive light. If you wish to charge your crystal with a positive intention "this home is blessed with harmony, peace, and abundance".
Defense Grid
This is done by placing Black Tourmaline in the four corners of your home. Ensure the pieces are upright or facing outright. If your house is oddly shaped, you may wish to add more additional pieces in alcoves and corners to ensure all edges of the home are covered.
Bedroom
Keep a piece in your bedroom on your nightstand or under your pillow to fight off bad dreams.
Additionally, the presence of Black Tourmaline in your bedroom will aid in transforming negative emotions, turning them into positive emotions, improving sleep.
Protect Your Automobile
A piece of Black Tourmaline tucked safely under your car or truck seat will help you to keep you protected. It will also help to maintain your concentration during times of heavy traffic.
