Sword of Truth with Citrine Crystal



The Sword of Truth is a beautiful crystal with another crystal as a stone insert. This particular one has a Citrine inserted into the handle. When I began Spirit Walker I wanted to be different. I not only wanted to work with the crystals that I loved so much but I wanted to be able to help others on their journey also.

Each morning I light two candles one white to draw those in need towards my site and one green candle to achieve the financial success that I desire. I end my little cosmic ordering ritual by sending absent healing out to everyone that has asked it of me and for all those contained in my healing diary.

I believe that when we pose a question to our guides an angel answers us in ways we may not always expect. Yesterday an angel who shall remain nameless gave me the answer to a question that I had posed that very morning. I had subconsciously asked my guides to give me some kind of proof that I was on the right road and that my little daily rituals were working and that the crystals I have were purchased and sold for a particular reason and not just on a whim of mine.

With the kind permission

"Let me just preface this by saying that as a teenager, I went through some huge trauma that I was ill-equipped to deal with on any level and in my turmoil, I developed some rather unhealthy responses. One of these was panic attacks and agoraphobia. Another was self harm, which at the time was far from being as generally recognized as it is today - in fact it was not heard of even by many mental health practitioners. Over time, I recovered and developed healthier survival skills.

Now here I am, many years later and have been through overwhelming (for me at least) stress in the past few years. And I have found that some of those learned responses failed - or more accurately, I failed to implement them effectively. I have been experiencing panic and some degree of agoraphobia again, which was part of the reason I chose the Turquoise Charm. And it is very difficult for me to admit it, but I have once again found myself facing the demon of self harm. I don't really understand it - I never thought I'd be fighting that again. Somehow, to my mind, it seems like a teenage girl problem, not one a 49 year old woman would be dealing with. Silly to think that or feel that way, I know.

Anyway, one evening, I was surfing the good ol' web and I decided to see if I could find crystals recommended for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, since that is at the core of this. I didn't find much, but I did notice that Citrine was showing up in a lot of lists for depression and phobias, so that had me interested. Reading further, I found mentions of it being used to treat self destruction and self harm. Well, if that doesn't sound like the crystal for me....

And, well, I think you can see where this is going, but just imagine my reaction to seeing a Citrine sitting atop a sword - for me, a perfect symbol to represent overcoming cutting. I am still amazed, but then it is often said that we find what we need or we draw what we need to ourselves when we are open to it.

Now, although I would not post this little story anywhere on the internet myself, if you do find any of it of use, or believe it could help someone else, please know you have my permission to recount this, paraphrase, whatever.... as the experience of a customer who 'shall remain nameless' (lol - or to that effect.)

Thanks for 'listening' :-)"


I thought this was such a wonderful story. Not only did it confirm to me that my crystals were going to the right homes but that people in need were the ones being drawn towards Spirit Walker. It also told me that 'yes' I am on the right track. I also felt that this experience could also help others. If you are reading this now for whatever reason - there is most definitely a reason and you just need to ask yourself why?
