Strange signs and clues, underscored by the miraculous, led to the transformation I experienced with the violet flame and the crystal bed, although I knew nothing about the former, and the latter had initially sounded to me like an Elvish contraption from Lord of the Rings.
I first read about crystal bed therapy in Doreen Virtue’s Angel Medicine, where she relates a past life regression to an Atlantean healing temple. She describes a crystal pyramid from which sunlight streamed down to a bed of crystal quartz, where patients lay while workers pointed a crystal onto their chakras. As fantastical as that may sound, contemporary research such as that conducted by Marcel J. Vogel has studied the relationship between the energetic fields of crystals with water and proposes that, since 75% of the body is water, crystals are the perfect conduits to deliver subtle energies to its liquid crystal systems in the cell membranes, intercellular fluids, tissues, etc. When these systems become unstructured with disease or distress, Vogel found that a precisely cut crystal could restore coherence and balance.
Until I found myself on such a bed, my explorations with crystals had been limited to etheric weavers and conventional crystal treatments where stones are placed on the chakras, with nothing extraordinary to report. The most striking experience I had had was a guided group meditation with a large Litios Gate of Ascension crystal. The meditation gave rise, that night, to dreams of crystalline planes from which I was awakened by an intense tingling all over my body. The sensation lasted so long and became so uncomfortable that I was forced to stop it with grounding exercises. If a vibrational adjustment had occurred, I did not feel deeply transformed, despite the ensuing euphoria.
It wasn’t until I reached unmanageable levels of stress that I sought out the crystal bed, hoping for a ‘heavyweight’ intervention. I knew from past experience with energy work that so much energetic debris could not be quickly cleared away, not by ordinary means at least; and it was only a matter of time before something physical manifested. Everything in my life was going wrong, nothing was getting resolved, and fresh horrors were added every day. I was stretched beyond my limits: insomnia or nightmares, blood pressure spikes, crashed adrenals, heart palpitations, shortness of breath… Was I being prodded into a shift? In hindsight, I’d say possibly; at the time, the only thing I knew with certainty was where to get help. Having had profound experiences in connection with the renowned healer-medium, John of God, I wanted to jump on the next flight to his healing centre in Brazil, the Casa de Dom Inacio, also known as “the Casa.” My circumstances prohibited such a time-out, so I decided to try crystal bed therapy as a way of connecting with his energy field.
The crystal bed concept was purportedly channelled through John of God from the spiritual Entities that dispense physical, emotional and spiritual healing through him. A variation on Doreen Virtue’s account, it is a stand that suspends seven extremely clear and highly polished crystals over a massage bed. Cut to specific frequencies, these crystals are aligned to the chakras, while correspondingly coloured lights shine behind them in specific rhythms to cleanse, balance and align the energy field. More importantly, it is said that the Entities use the crystal beds as portals. People report feeling the Entities working on their bodies, or physical healing taking place. They may feel pressure, lightness, heat, tingling, cleansing, etc. They may have insights or release memories, and their awareness may extend to higher states of consciousness. Every experience is unique.
Crystal bed therapy was developed for practical use at the Casa and implemented as one of its healing modalities. With the Entities’ permission, healing practitioners may obtain beds for use in their hometowns.
I sought a bed in Toronto, and my intuition strongly pointed to a specific location. When I arrived for my appointment, S. – the practitioner whom I was meeting for the first time – and I connected immediately. We talked for hours, and I could have left feeling energised solely by our exchange, but she eventually showed me to the crystal bed. During my first treatment, I felt powerful sensations such as whirling chakras, energy waves, and pressure on the areas that were out of balance. Since I did not feel Entities working on me, I could not say whether the sensations were produced solely by the crystals or by intelligences working through them.
Feeling very relaxed, I turned in early that night but was awakened by an energy surge throughout my body. The healing that had begun on the crystal bed resumed, now obviously carried out by intelligences, since the crystal bed was miles away. In the morning I contacted S. to share my experience only to learn that healing had also been done on her overnight. An indication that our paths converged perhaps…? Certainly a sign that I should pay close attention to our exchanges…
The following week, at the end of my second treatment, when S. opened the door to room with the crystal bed, she asked visibly perplexed: “Can you smell that?” I could…a sweet scent…and then she was thunderstruck: “This smell is everywhere at Casa…” Never having been to the Casa, I would not have recognized it, but she takes groups there regularly. We had been visited!
That evening my chores were interrupted by the persistent sensation of being nudged into my bed. This was either a sign that I was delusional or that something wondrous was afoot again. I dropped the laundry and lay down. Instantly, the crystal bed treatment resumed and continued until I fell asleep.
In the morning, S. contacted me to say that she had been worked on again. She described a vivid dream where she was instructed to go “beyond 900,” which we interpreted as rate of vibration. To me, this also suggested the Solfeggio Frequencies, which I had been using as meditation tools for years. The Solfeggio is an ancient musical scale and a set of sound frequencies said to hold the keys to longevity, accelerated healing and higher consciousness. In the recordings that I had, 963Hz corresponded to raising energetic vibration. This was a clue, but to what exactly?
During the following week, life as I knew it was about to collapse. I was considering ending important relationships but, whenever I asked for guidance, the word “forgiveness” was given. Easier said than done, I protested and questioned whether, by forgiving, I’d be pretending to take the high road to avoid pain. I disregarded the violet flashes that I kept seeing while resting or blinking, chalking them up to eyestrain.
I arrived for my third treatment so confused that I didn’t know what to ask for anymore. So I asked for everything to change. In an earnest, albeit desperate, plea I placed my hand over my heart – a gesture that indicates to the Entities the willingness to be deeply transformed. The rain check had come calling: fearing change, I had avoided making that level of commitment at a John of God healing event earlier in the year. But, as A Course in Miracles emphasizes, we only choose the time; on the ascension path, consciousness shifts are required. My apprehension was assuaged on the crystal bed with an enormous energetic hug: my entire body was enfolded in a love ineffably pure, sweet and gentle. I understood this as “know that you are loved but you must make your own decisions.” Yes, I was deeply grateful, but what I really wanted was to have all my problems miraculously resolved.
While S. and I talked after the treatment, the fragrance of the Casa visited us again, and the phrase “transmutation of energy” kept popping out of my mouth – curiously so, since I had never used it before. I recognized this as another clue since the subtle realms communicate with us telepathically, through our own thoughts. But if I knew how to transmute negativity, wouldn’t I have done it already?
I lay down and mentally repeated the decree a few times, admittedly without grasping its full meaning, when a cool flame-like violet energy began to scan my body, dissolving dark spots. Some of this I could ‘see’, most of it I could feel, while remaining fully conscious and utterly bewildered, for this was not a visualization. When I felt a distinct pop and an internal shift, I concluded that the layers of my energy body had snapped into alignment. I had attempted to achieve this through specific exercises in the past, without significant success.
The deep transformation was granted within one hour. All heaviness was lifted externally and internally, physically and emotionally. I felt purified and liberated. I gained emotional distance and my body functions began to normalize. The phrase “the incredible lightness of being” became a jubilant, recurring thought in the following days, as it described how I felt, even if the maelstrom still raged. Nothing had changed around me, only inside me. I felt different. I was different. Determined to own this state, I researched the violet flame and repeated the exercises to frequencies much higher than 963HZ.
I have since learned that Saint Germain’s mission, as the Chohan of the seventh, Violet Ray, is the establishment of the new civilization of the Age of Aquarius, when the ascension path opens for humanity again. The essence of the seventh ray, the violet flame, has the power to transmute karma and negative energy, delivering freedom, forgiveness, mercy, justice and transformation. It raises consciousness one person at a time, in preparation of a new golden age.
The concept of the Seven Rays appears in Western and Eastern religions and esoteric traditions since antiquity and, more recently, in Theosophy and the Ascended Master Teachings. It promulgates that one Master is in charge of each of the rays that represent the energies of spiritual Light. The white light of the Source refracts into seven rays, like the rainbow, each with its own colour, sound, frequency and qualities. Having lived in physical bodies and attained the necessary mastery and wisdom, the Ascended Masters help raise our consciousness through these seven pathways with healing, guidance, teaching and initiations. As our souls evolve toward the mystical union with the Divine, we take on more light in the process of ascension, which is said to be the path of love and forgiveness.
I now realize that the recurring thought “the incredible lightness of being” had been a double entendre, expressing not only the buoyancy which I was feeling, but also that I had literally taken on more light. And, as if to dispel any doubt whether the transformation had been stress-induced imaginatis, sensitives who knew nothing about my experience saw violet flashes around me.
I would have been eternally grateful solely for the shift in perception but more was in store… In a few weeks all the problems dissolved or resolved! Even my mother’s life-threatening health condition, which had been my greatest stressor, improved suddenly and without any medical explanation – dare I presume as a result of the violet flame that she and I regularly invoked for her health? Relationships were healed; yes, I had chosen forgiveness but I cannot honestly say that I forgave fully or immediately, only that I was willing to forgive. The real healing was done on my behalf by the violet flame. Intent is everything.
Months later, I remain remarkably resistant to lower vibrations, especially my own: fear, disappointment, anxiety, anger are far less frequent or potent. As I resume my spiritual practices after a prolonged period of inactivity, I recognize that my awareness has expanded. The pinholes in my mind’s cocoon seem to have widened and, while I am eager for light to burst in, I know that, when I am ready for more change, new signs and clues will point the way. Nonetheless, during any given meditation, now I find myself gravitating midway to an affirmation taught by Saint Germain: “Let there be light where I AM THAT I AM!” It seems to anchor deeper inside me, every time, the understanding that my trivial requests pale before the only quest there is, the quest for the Light, within which everything is not simply encompassed but already given.
