When I was a child, I had many extraordinary experiences, seeing, sensing, and perceiving all kinds of Spirits and Entities, as well as different dimensions of consciousness. I had a strong sense of ESP and an unusual understanding of the Universe. Even as a two-year-old, I remember talking to my father about the part of the Universe I had come from, which was Orion’s Belt, and pointing out the local field where I said the ETs landed every time, we went past it! Growing up in the early 1970s in the UK, this was not at all common, but my parents believed my stories. My mother could also see spirits, which helped them trust what I shared.
Somewhere in my early childhood, I discovered mystical shops filled with crystals and esoteric books, long before the term New Age even existed. I was instantly captivated by the natural beauty of crystals and fell in love with their magical energy and vibrations. Like a magpie, I began collecting them and working intuitively with their energy. I simply knew what to do with them and could feel how they affected my energy field. I was hooked, and that deep connection has never left me. I still feel the same awe, inspiration, and love for crystals as I did when I first discovered the magical energy of the Second Dimension, The Crystal Kingdom.
In 1987, a shop called Crystals opened in Torquay, and it remains one of my favourite UK crystal stores. It was run by two brothers who had gathered an incredible collection of specimens from mines all over the world. At sixteen, I began making crystal wands for them to sell. I never learned how to make them; I just knew, and I loved every moment of it. College eventually took my attention away from that short-lived passion, but deep down I always knew I would have a crystal shop of my own one day.
That dream came true. For ten years, I ran a beautiful store that, I hope, shared the magic of the crystal realm with everyone who stepped through its doors. Over the years, I have gathered a wealth of experience and explored crystal energy in great depth. I have already written about the wisdom of around 180 of these magical gems and symbols, but now I feel called to go even deeper, to explore and share this knowledge with others who are drawn to the path of Crystal Alchemy ®.
My understanding may not mirror everyone’s experiences, but it represents my truth and my personal connection with these energies. I hope it resonates with you.
The Alchemy Codex is my online space to store and share this knowledge. It is an alchemical archive where anyone can explore the origins and composition of crystals, their spiritual and physical healing aspects, emotional and creative properties, manifestation energy, ritual and magical associations, metaphysical properties, chakras, numerological vibrations, astrological significance, elemental essences, and affirmations for working with them.
As I have deepened my work, I have found the exploration of numerological vibration and astrological significance particularly fascinating. The way crystals align with certain star signs and chakras continues to amaze me. The chakras I list are those through which I most strongly feel their energy, but they are not limited to those alone.
This body of knowledge is vast. As a writer and channel, I work deeply with each energy as I write, often entering into a trance like state merged with the crystal itself. I do not retain every detail consciously because the information is simply too expansive, but the essence of my experiences becomes interwoven into my work. Each article in The Alchemy Codex is infused with the reflective energy of both myself and the crystals. Together, they form a modern Akashic record of the Crystal Kingdom.
I have also written extensively about the Archangels and will be posting that content here, along with a wealth of channelled material on Sacred Geometry. Over time, I will also share messages from the Starseed Stellar Systems.
Much of what I have learned in life has come through deep meditation and Lightbody upgrades from the wisdom of Crystals and Metals, Archangels, Rays, Ascended Masters, Goddesses, and Interdimensional connections with the Stars. These personal experiences, gathered through a lifetime of working with these energies, are my offering to you. I hope you enjoy exploring this knowledge and feel the energy that comes with working with them.
