hi everyone Caroline here and I've got a question for you is your favorite crystal a heat-treated
crystal is your favorite crystal a heat-treated crystal if it is then pay attention because you're
going to find this video very useful for you you know I've been thinking about the subject of fake
crystals for quite some time now because I know a lot of people a lot of us crystal lovers we work
with crystals for energy healing purposes and we also wear a lot of crystal healing jewelry for
energetic purposes so if we are walking around all decked up in this jewelry working with our
crystal grids using these crystals for energetic healing I believe that at the very least we should
know whether the crystal we are working with has vital energy or not we should know whether the
crystal that we are working with is damaged or not we should know whether the crystal we are working
with has a vibration or not right so this is the reason why I want to touch on this subject you
know these days there are so many fake crystals being sold out there it's crazy the amount of
crystals that are being sold and the type of crystals that are being passed off as being the
natural or the genuine thing you know sometimes I even just walk into these crystal shops and I
just can't believe my eyes because really what are these people selling like it's kind of like
ridiculous but you know it is what it is but it's just so crazy and it can get really confusing for
anybody because these crystals have been made to look so attractive because the more attractive the
crystal is the more valuable the crystal is so since we know that for a lot of people it's all
about the money it's up to us as crystal lovers or as people who work with these spiritual tools
to do our due diligence and at least having an idea about what type of crystals have been
artificially treated what type of crystals have no vital energy or life what type of crystals
have no vibrational energy is a good step in the right direction anyway this fake crystal
stuff is so crazy so I'm gonna make a couple of dedicated videos to touch on these subjects
in this video I'm just going to be talking about heat treated crystals in particular but I'm gonna
be making another video specifically dedicated to dyed crystals and irradiated crystals which
i think is another crystal subject that has a very interesting twist okay the point I want
to share with those who purchased or who have these fake crystals through no fault of their
own and who are using this quote code fake heated crystals for energy work or for healing purposes
the point I want them to know or rather the point I want you to know from my personal perspective is
that crystals that have been at officially altered truly have no vibrational quality the treatments
that have been done to them to make them appear different have truly done some tremendous damage
to their vibrational quality so my perspective is that they're basically lifeless they have no vital
energy or they have a diminished energy and really it's just so sad that some of these crystals are
really really expensive and yet their true value has been diminished by the damaging artificial
treatments that they have undergone the whole thing is just unfortunate don't you think I think
so anyway you know the main ways that crystals get their colors is either naturally from the earth or
through these artificial treatments that are done by man but interestingly there are some people who
don't really consider heat-treated crystals or artificially treated crystals as being fake or
fraudulent they really don't mind as long as the crystal has a specific color and it looks
attractive and maybe if they are sellers as long as they can make a lot of money from it it works
fine because obviously for some sellers you know the more attractive the mention dies the faster it
moves out the door right it's all about that yeah and in the larger scheme of things who can blame
them that's the way life is and maybe the seller just doesn't know the crystal is not the real deal
and another thing is that there are also some healers or energy workers or crystal lovers who
work with these crystals or these artificially treated stones who may not mind or care about
whether the crystal is artificially treated or not because they work with these crystals based on the
color that the crystal has for example for things like color therapy and whatnot my main concern in
cases like this is just that someone might be working with a crystal thinking that it really
has some energetic vibration or energetic quality to it but it really doesn't and it's because of
things like this but sometimes we don't get the results that we want when you're working with
these spiritual tools when we think that something is one thing and then it's the other thing you
know what I mean so this is why I want us really to pay attention and then of course there are also
some other people who have said many times that they don't feel the energy of a crystal perhaps
this could be one of the reasons the stone that you are using if it was artificially treated has
no vital vibrational energy so maybe that's why you can't sense the energy of that stone crystal
lovers these heat treated crystals do not have the same energetic effects as the real ones they
really don't they are completely different and they are not suited for healing and a jetty or
even spiritual work so just be aware okay so some examples of some heat treated crystals to
be aware of which are commonly sold today are crystals like citrine I don't have a fake one
to show you otherwise I would but a huge amount of citrine in the market today it's not the true
natural citrine which is usually pale yellowish or champagne looking or has a smoky yellowish color
like this one and I'm sure you've seen the fake sea trains which are sold almost everywhere they
have an orangish yellow color and these are in fact heat treated amethyst they usually look like
this amethyst but they are an orange yellowish color I bet you've seen them the sad thing about
this whole thing is that if someone has bought the stole thinking that it's citrine and wanting
to utilize the energy of citrine unfortunately they won't be able to get that energy because
what they're working with is not citrine so in cases like that then they just have to figure
out how to work with that crystal in terms of the colors because maybe that's where its strongest
energy could be coming from okay another common heat treated crystal to be aware of is aquamarine
where they depend the blue color of aquamarine to remove the green color and then we also have
chameleons these are usually heat treated for the color intensity and you know our shops to
find out that a vast majority of chameleons in the market actually not real chameleons stones
they actually died and heat-treated eggs and when I found out about this I was really really shocked
because I have never really felt the energy of this particular crystal of mine so and upon
looking at this crystal of mine I do see that it's probably a dyed agate this is not good at all it's
not good at all it's not good at all anywho a few other crystals are crystals like sapphire which
are usually heat treated to make their colors lighter or more intense in some cases and also
more uniform and then we also have crystals like topaz which may be heat treated in combination
with radiation to create the pink or blue shades of topaz and also some types of to Merlin are
heat treated to lighten the color of the blue and the green to Mullins so again for those who are
using crystals for healing work for crystal grids for chakra work for any type of energy work just
pay attention to the type of crystal that you're working with if you're working with a heat treated
crystal or wearing a heat treated crystal don't feel bad just remember that we live and learn
and our intention to heal is much more powerful than any other spiritual tool their God within
us can bring healing to us with or without these spiritual to so it's all good just pay attention
test your crystals feel your crystals and find out for yourself okay all right if you have a
