Crystals can receive and store thoughtforms. When this is done consciously, it is called "programming". This term is used because of the similarity of the process to computer programming. Information or commands are stored in the molecular structure of quartz crystals as magnetically charged data.
Thoughts are a form of energy and are magnetic in nature. All data in the charged(programmed) crystals are stored as thoughtforms. Thoughtforms are images and/or sensory information, powered or intensified by emotions.
A programmed crystal has the ability to amplify and continuously emanate programmed energy.
One way a crystal becomes charged with your intent is when you use it repeatedly for a specific purpose, such as meditation or healing. When you wish for a crystal to retain a program over a period of time, it is preferable to program the crystal on a regular basis with full conscious awareness of your task.
You can input more than one program into the crystal but the programs have to be compatible. In such a case, it would be advisable to wait for a few days for a crystal to become attuned to the energy of the original program.
Before programming a crystal, make sure that you are doing this for the highest good of all concerned and that you ask the crystal's permission to alter its very matrix, its physical body. (Crystals are living beings, with spiritual, mental and emotional capabilities, they might well be the highest form of life on this planet, so treat them with respect).
