Stones and crystals for cancer patients
WARNING: The use of Lithotherapy does not in any way replace traditional medical care. The ShivShakti store systematically recommends medical advice.
I am often asked which crystals are most effective for healing cancer, if there are different crystals for different types of cancer, etc. Cancer comes in many forms and is actually the body's way of letting us know that we need to be careful about something we are doing or not doing. It can be due to the foods we eat, the people we surround ourselves with, the products we put on or in our bodies, or simply the environment around us. Cancer can also develop due to the withholding of our energy, our creative power, the "real" us wanting to do more, but feeling like we can't do it for whatever reason. We hold back for so long that our body slowly goes into shutdown mode. Doing the thing you really want to do often comes to the fore when energy starts flowing to the right areas. DO IT! Your body will thank you because it will feel free. More than you think, even the smallest modified effort will make all the difference - I kid you not.
If you are new to the crystal healing lifestyle, there are general crystals that work for all types of cancer, which I have used as a basis and are pictured below. What many don't know is that different parts of the body can use additional stones to target the area to stimulate the rebalancing of that said area.
Energetically, Cancer is stagnant or blocked energy. As an energy worker and intuitive, this energy often appears black to me, when it should be light or colored. Healing crystals put light back into the body, targeting and opening flow to the area that needs it most. The stones regenerate cells, purify the body and mind, create balance and stabilize healing energy by anchoring it in the person's body.
When looking for healing crystals, follow your intuition or gut - only you know yourself and what your body needs. The results always depend on the person's actions, their state of mind, their receptivity and their ability to engage in the flow of energy. Crystal healing or any other modality is largely based on your intention - knowing and focusing on the outcome you desire, and then being open, to allow the energy to flow through you.
The stones that I am going to recommend to you are easily available and they act on the four levels of your energetic body: Spiritual, mental, emotional and physical. They work diligently to restore balance to the body's energy field. They can be placed on the affected site, kept in your pocket or nearby.
My top 6 stones for cancer are:
Tiger's Eye
Tiger's Eye is an excellent stone for bringing luck and mental courage. This stone can help provide the courage and strength needed to fight serious illness. Tiger's eye is best known for helping people with lung cancer, lymphoma or leukemia.
Rose quartz
Rose quartz is known as the stone of universal love. It promotes peace and inner healing, healthy relationships and self-love. This harmonious stone is best known for helping people with breast, heart, thymus and lung cancer.
Malachite
A regenerative stone that works on blocked energies (this can be tumors), physical pain and restarting the flow in the body. It is a stone of support for people undergoing chemotherapy.
Selenite
Selenite is known to have strong cleansing properties. It is believed to calm irritation, aid deep understanding, and protect against loss of control. This stone is ideal for meditation and cleansing other stones. Selenite is best known for helping to detoxify and strengthen the body's immune system, which can be beneficial for any illness.
Fluorite
Fluorite is a stone known to enhance spiritual visions, self-confidence, absorb negative energy and replace it with positive energy. Since this stone is believed to prohibit bad energies from entering the body, it has the potential to slow the spread of cancer cells in the body. This stone is best known for healing people with prostate and ovarian cancer.
Citrine
Citrine is said to give courage to face life's challenges, to release negative traits, depression, fears and phobias. This stone also has restorative properties and is known to soothe and calm the nerves, making it an excellent crystal for people suffering from any sort of illness.
The bonus stone: smoky quartz
One of its main properties is its ability to dissolve negative/emotional blockages, allowing positive energies to enter. It aligns physical meridians, helps balance the body's energy system, and is a protector from excessive energy.
Stones are a great way to add some positivity, faith and hope into your life. For those going through a difficult time with cancer, using the healing properties of crystals could provide extra strength, courage and peace throughout their journey to beat the disease.
Conclusion
We sincerely hope that one or more of these stones and crystals will give you the strength you need to heal or at least ease the pain and give you some welcome relief!
