Handling Your Stones
In-Hand Out-Hand
As new information about rocks and stones works its way to you, you want your new stone friends to be as helpful as possible. That means you want to discover which hand brings the energy of a stone into your body and which hand pulls the energy out of your body.
Here is a brief profile on how to discover which is your in-hand and which is your out-hand.
When it comes to the energy of a stone, the hand you hold it in is going to determine whether the stone’s energy is entering your body or pulling things out of your body. One hand is for energy coming in and the other for energy going out. Take selenite, for example, which cleans and structures. Selenite held in your out-hand is going to be cleaning you. Selenite held by your in-hand is going to be coming up your arm to structure you.
If you have a piece of dravite that you are using to clean out negativity, the dravite can soon become full of debris. It will eventually self clean but until that moment, should you pick it up and hold it in your in-hand, you are going to start pulling the debris back into you just after it was all cleaned out. Black tourmaline works the same way. One of the best stones in the mineral kingdom for pulling out negativity from the human body, black tourmaline will put that debris back in you when you play with it for several hours by holding it in your in-hand. That will just re-deposit the negative energy back into your biofield, mind, brain and physical body. You can hold it in your out-hand with no problem.
When you use black tourmaline to protect yourself from Radiation B now beginning to enter the earth’s atmosphere, it will pull the radiation out of you when you hold it in your out-hand. When you hold black tourmaline (that is clear of debris) in your in-hand, it will prevent Radiation B from coming into you in the first place.
Selenite, dravite, black tourmaline and morion black quartz which can extract negative energies from a body are going to unload their negative energies back into you when you hold them in your in-hand (unless they are clean.)
When you go to sleep, you want to keep cleaning those stones all night long. Your selenite is excellent for that job and will go to work throughout the night making sure all your stones are free of debris. If you hold selenite in your out-hand during the day, your selenite is going to be pulling that negative energy continuously out and off of your body.
You don’t want to be pulling off energy one day and putting it back the next. It’s not going to be the end of the world if you get a little mixed up about which hand is which, but when you want to maximize the effectiveness of your stones, it’s good to know, which is your in-hand and which is your out-hand.
In most cases, the hand you write with is going to be your out-hand. For those that can feel the energy of a stone, the best test to determine which hand is which is to first pick up the stone you can feel the most. Hold it in one hand and let yourself feel whether the energy is traveling up your fingers, into your hands and up your arms or if the energy is flowing out of you into the stone.
The out-hand is your vacuum hand. It sucks things off. It pulls energy through you. The out-hand is used for healing work or support work with the earth. The out-hand is also the one you want to use to hold your pendulum.
In-hand out-hand knowledge can be especially helpful when you want to send and receive energy. Let’s say you decide to send your love out to humanity five minutes every day. That energy is going out of you. When you love humanity but send it out via your in-hand, you are more likely to pick up the problems and emotions of humanity. Some natural healers who may be especially sensitive to energies, just by shaking hands with their in-hand they can take in other people’s stuff.
Don’t give up on your energy work, just be aware of your in-hand. Remember, all that love and energy to humanity is going to first go through you before it goes out to humanity. Loving humanity every day, you get loved everyday by yourself first. You are also formatting the energy for humanity with your love. If the energy isn’t formatted, it can’t be used. When energy piles up and can’t be used, it starts to spoil. If you have a sensitive nose, you may even smell that decaying energy. It has an odor and it will sit in your field when you don’t move it which is not what you want.
Take time today to discover what is your in-hand and what is your out-hand. Hold your favorite stone first in one hand and then in the other and see what you feel. Is the energy of the stone coming in and up your arm or out your arm? This simple test to determine which is your in-hand and which is your out-hand will make your stone friends far more effective and their results far more tangible.
