Understanding the Yin-Yang Principal:

Enhancing Sexuality with the Love Crystals

Brett Bravo

Balancing the yin-yang, or male-female polarity, within each of us is the primary function of evolution. It is the answer to perfecting Man. As spiritual beings, we can enhance the balancing with love crystals.

The Divine Mother-Father Creator gives us the opportunity to experience both the male and female energies throughout many lifetimes. The masculine side of this secret force of nature we experience as force and will to action; the feminine side we experience as creative, receptive intuition.

Today's woman has been working hard to develop the inner man, to take responsibility in world evolution. Technology relieves her of some home and family tasks, allowing her time to discover her potential as co-creator instead of strictly pro-creator. Women have gone from subservient to creative, assertive spirits. This is apparent in developed countries where women shoulder responsibility for masculine evolution. This in turn affords men ways to discover nurturing skills, thus promoting yin-yang balance.

Adornment with crystals and precious metals gives clues to understanding the evolution of the male and female energies. Neanderthals strung pieces of bone, wood and seeds together. Was this inspiration a primitive instinct that they were channeling nature spirits? Stones and rocks remained in early jewelry, but as metals became an integral part, evolution took a quantum leap. The ability to learn multiplied many times over. It is my belief that these ornaments increased the ability to learn by keeping vibration close to the body.

As gold, silver, bronze (copper and tin) and brass (copper and zinc) became the chosen metals for adornment, we see parallel advances in humanity. I believe that the vibrations from the metals increased the mental capacity of the wearer. Nothing is without life, everything is vibration.

Gold speaks to our intellect throughout skin sensors. Consider the popularity of wearing gold for women during the 70's and 80's as women took bolder roles in society. In occult wisdom, gold corresponds to the Sun—a vital, Yang force. Silver is nurturing, intuitive, emotional, the Moon, spiritual, a Yin force. Walk through any jewelry or department store these days. You will see on display an abundant selection of silver jewelry. This is a direct result of women balancing the Yang (of previous years) with today's Yin as they blend feminine/masculine roles.

Places of adornment have changed over the last two hundred years, corresponding to the shift in consciousness in this Aquarian Age. Addressing the need to balance the yin-yang, men and women wear gold in necklaces (at the throat's power source, for communication), or over the heart in broaches and lapel pins, and on the left wrist of the receiving hand in watches and wedding rings. Ten years ago men and women both wore more gold. Today there is an equal array of silver. The need to balance the male-female polarity is returning to human consciousness on a subconscious level.

The vibration of metal crystals against or near the skin affects the chemicals of the brain and body as we open our skin sensors to receive the new message of the Age of Aquarius. The message is cooperation, agreement and partnership among nations, planets, galaxies and lovers.

Stone crystals help bring these changes as well. For instance, the dark burgundy Garnet (attracting and transmitting the Burgundy Ray of Pluto) affects the lowest center of creativity—our sexual drive. Use the Garnet to transform primitive urges into spiritual, loving coupling and to renew significant sexual relationships.

Another crystal with a potentially dramatic effect on one's love life is the Mexican Fire Opal. This attracts and transmits the Red Ray of Mars. The Mexican Fire Opal stirs our energy centers to combine a balance of passion, surrender and transformation in our love life.

To promote personal and Divine balance, wear and use these crystals. You will gain a new sense of awareness and the opportunity to fulfill your own Yin-Yang balance.
