Full Moon Crystal Cleansing

Full moon is a great time to energetically clear and cleanse your crystals and gemstones.  Crystals can amplify, neutralize or transmute whatever energies that surround them.  So it is a good idea to periodically clear and cleanse them.


One way to cleanse crystals is to put them outside under the full moon.
  • Placing the crystals on the ground is the optimum way to cleanse them during the full moon, but placing then on a natural wood tray or even a soft cotton cloth is also good. 
  • You can also wash them in a sea salt bath then rinse then before placing them out.
  • The moon light washes away anything that is no longer needed.  
Leave them out all night and into the next day so they can be charged by the light of the sun. You may place them by a window where the light of the moon can shine on to them if you prefer not to put them out all night. The day prior or after the full moon are also acceptable times to cleanse your stones.

UNM Curanderismo Program Back for 12th Year - UNM Today | The University of New Mexico

UNM Curanderismo Program Back for 12th Year - UNM Today | The University of New Mexico
The pop­u­lar sum­mer course, “Tra­di­tional Med­i­cine with­out Bor­ders: Curan­derismo in the South­west and Mex­ico,” takes place at the Uni­ver­sity of New Mex­ico from July 16–27. Dr. Eliseo “Cheo” Tor­res, UNM vice pres­i­dent for Stu­dent Affairs and pro­fes­sor of Lan­guage, Lit­er­acy, and Socio­cul­tural Stud­ies hosts the course in con­junc­tion with the UNM Women’s Resource Center.
This sum­mer class, now in its 12th year, is an oppor­tu­nity for Mex­i­can tra­di­tional heal­ers to share knowl­edge about curan­derismo, the art and sci­ence of Mex­i­can folk heal­ing, with stu­dents and mem­bers of the public.
Tor­res takes an inte­gra­tive approach to med­i­cine and his class fea­tures demon­stra­tions incor­po­rat­ing curan­derismo with var­i­ous tra­di­tional and holis­tic health tech­niques. The course uses heal­ers and health prac­ti­tion­ers from UNM, Mex­ico and the Albu­querque com­mu­nity as instructors.
Each year the class has grown in pop­u­lar­ity. We con­sis­tently have more than 100 stu­dents and this year, I’m again expect­ing local, national and inter­na­tional stu­dents,” Tor­res said. “Unique about this class is that local curan­deros — prac­ti­tion­ers and heal­ers — all come together to share and learn about tra­di­tional heal­ing meth­ods. The first week local curan­deros will be involved, while both Mex­i­can curan­deros and local curan­deros will take part in week two,” he added.
In con­junc­tion with the class, the UNM Women’s Resource Cen­ter and the National His­panic Cul­tural Cen­ter spon­sor and host two Mex­i­can Tra­di­tional health fairs (Ferias de Salud) and free work­shops; as well as a per­for­mance, “Santa de Cab­ora” about “Tere­sita,” a leg­endary curan­dera.
The health fairs and work­shops are set for Tues­day, July 24 from noon to 4 p.m. on the UNM cam­pus; and on Thurs­day, July 26 from 4 to 9 p.m. at the National His­panic Cul­tural Cen­ter. The fairs fea­ture more than 30 well-known Mex­i­can folk healers/curanderos(as) from the Méx­ico City area, includ­ing the com­mu­ni­ties of Cuer­navaca, Tepoztlán, Amatlán and Oaxaca.
The heal­ers will dis­cuss tra­di­tional heal­ing ther­a­pies includ­ing herbal med­ica­tions, spir­i­tual energy cleans­ings and other heal­ing tech­niques, which have remained a part of the Mex­i­can cul­ture for cen­turies. Treat­ments will be avail­able and dona­tions accepted,” Tor­res said.
Elena Diaz Bjorkquist per­forms “Santa de Cab­ora” on Thurs­day, July 19 at 7 p.m. at the National His­panic Cul­tural Cen­ter in the Roy E. Dis­ney Room. Bjorkquist is a writer, his­to­rian and artist from Tuc­son who authored two books, “Suf­fer Smoke,” and “Water from the Moon.” Open­ing per­for­mances that night include the music of Elena Klaver, a singer-songwriter whose songs reflect her work for peace, jus­tice and envi­ron­men­tal issues; as well as a “heal­ing through laugh­ter” demon­stra­tion by renowned curan­deras, Rita Navar­rete Perez and Tonita Gon­za­les. A $10 sug­gested dona­tion will ben­e­fit the UNM Women’s Resource Cen­ter and the curan­derismo class.
For more infor­ma­tion on the course, includ­ing reg­is­tra­tion, syl­labus, health fairs and work­shops, visit Curan­derismo, or fol­low on Face­book.

Manifesting Abundance

When you let go and let the universe assist you things happen. Let me share one of these events that took place for me. I remember some years ago I had just bought my ranch and made my first mortgage payment. I was between paychecks and my car decided to have a major issue for at time which was going to coast $200 to fix. As I got the news at work I sat at my desk wondering how I would swing this before the next paycheck then I decided to do something I had just started to practice. I asked the universe to take care of it and make it work out and gave up my worry.
At lunch I decided to go to the library’s weekly books sale and of course being a new home owner I was looking for anything related to owning a home. I found a gardening book that retails for $20 new and it was the current years edition for only $2.  I didn’t really look at until I got home and as I was thumbing through the pages half way through the book three crisp $100 dollar bills came falling out into my lap. I just smiled said thank you out loud the universe had solved my problem just by asking.  -Francisco-

Saint Francis de Sales
 Nothing is so strong as gentleness, nothing so gentle as real strength.
