If a crystal that is meant to protect you breaks, then this is often seen as a warning. These crystals include turquoise, jasper, malachite, hematite, moss agate and a few others. I had a malachite worry stone that I treasured greatly. One day, for no reason, the tip broke off. I was devastated and refused to believe anything bad would happen. I superglued the tip on and still have that piece of malachite today! Still, two weeks later my husband was shot in the line of duty. If a protective stone breaks, it does not necessarily mean something negative will happen to you. My experience could have been just a coincidence. Who knows? Either way, take it as a sign to be more careful. But I would highly advice against supergluing your crystal back together :)
If a crystal that is meant to do something positive breaks, then it means you're supposed to share it. Rose quart brings love, for example, so if that breaks it means you need to share your love. Smokey quartz clears away negativity and depression. So if it breaks, I would share it with someone you know who is feeling down right now. I have a piece of smokey quartz that is self healed. Sometimes our crystals will heal themselves and this stone then becomes a powerful stone to help you to heal yourself.
If a stone breaks that is meant to be healing such as a green stone, then again I would think about someone in my life who is feeling under the weather and I'd share that stone with him or her. I have a kyanite stone that I love. Most nights I sleep with it under my pillow because kyanite will help cleanse your chakras while you sleep. One morning I awoke and saw that a blade of the kyanite had fallen off. I thought this was odd but didn't think any more about it. That afternoon, I bumped into my neighbor who told me he had to have tests done on his throat after doctors had discovered some nodules. I quickly ran inside and grabbed my kyanite blade and gave it to him.
Sometimes a stone breaks and we don't really know why. I had wanted a Lemurian crystal for so, so long. In 2005, a client brought me one she had purchased at a gem show, and I fell in love with that stone. I spent the next 6 years searching for the perfect Lemurian. I never really found it, but last summer when I was vacationing in Asheville with my family, I stopped in at Points of Light and found a lovely Lemurian. It had a little bubble of clear quartz that looked like a window into another world. I loved this little quartz and carried it with me everywhere and to all my readings. Three months later, I was walking into my kitchen to grab the phone. I had the Lemurian in one hand and when I reached for the phone, the crystal dropped and broke into pieces on my hard tile floor. I was devastated. I called my crystal guru friend Joel and he told me to place it in a bag of Sage to let it heal from the break. I did as he instructed but my heart felt a bit sad. I wondered if I wasn't spiritually ready for the Lemurian. I worried if it meant something bad might happen like when my Malachite broke.
Months went by and I didn't try to replace my Lemurian. Then one day, a package arrived in the mail. Inside, under heaps and heaps of tissue paper, was the most beautiful Lemurian I've ever seen in my life. It's over four inches tall and two and a half inches wide. It's a Buddha Lemurian crystal which means there's a perfect image of the Buddha sitting in the middle of the stone. I had read about this type of stone and wondered if such a thing could be possible and now here it was -- in my hands. It even had rainbows sprinkled throughout it. There was a lovely note from my friend Joel. He said he'd gotten the message when my Lemurian broke that it was time to give his Lemurian to me. This stone, he said, had been found outside a cave in Brazil. And on its long journey, it had somehow come to me. I couldn't have been happier. He apologized for the delay in getting the stone to me, explaining that it was difficult to part with. And staring at that majestic crystal, I could definitely understand why he didn't want to part with it.
Now I have the Lemurian crystal I've always wanted; actually it's so much better than any crystal I could have dreamed of. So when crystals break, try not to get scared or worried and know that it means it's just time for you to share your stones or receive new ones. Crystals are meant to be shared, not coveted nor kept in boxes. Still, when I receive the message to pass on my Lemurian to its new owner, I will be very sad indeed.
Open your heart to crystals and be ready to experience subtle and profound changes that will take your breath away. Crystals are hard working light workers who always leave their caretakers better people than when they first met.
