al·che·my

noun

Alchemy was one of the ancient sciences that led to the modern practice of chemistry. The primary focus: to turn base metals into gold, or to discover the elixir for eternal life.

The spiritual practice of alchemy is metaphorical: an inner process by which we seek to free ourselves of ego, shadow, fear – the dross aspects of ourselves that we wish to change – and fully embody our higher or divine selves – the gold.

In crystal alchemy we engage with the spirits, consciousness, and energy of our crystals to help transform our darker aspects:

  • The fear that keeps us trapped
  • The negative thought loops that block us
  • The limiting beliefs that we are not capable or worthy
  • The resistance that leads to self-sabotage
  • The denial that keeps us from hearing our truth & following our intuition


Into gold:

  • The courage and conviction that frees us
  • The positive mindset that empowers us through change
  • The self-love that opens us to better possibilities
  • The connection to Spirit that successfully guides our intuition
  • The embracing of our true selves and trust in our worth


It’s an energetic shift that first occurs in our subconscious, and then ripples positive change outwards into our feelings, thoughts, bodies, spirits, and ultimately our reality. 

All levels of healing can occur when we channel crystal energy deeply and with conscious intention.

There are 7 Caves Just as There are 7 Stages in Alchemy

Every cave includes:

  • A short lesson on the alchemical stage + the applied crystal alchemy
  • A guided journey to meet your crystal’s spirit and receive its medicine
  • A Crystal energy healing transmission
  • A prompt for journaling or self-reflection

Each cave is approximately 20 minutes of on-demand video that streams on all devices. And, you have lifetime access.


The more you heal on a subconscious level and activate your spiritual self, the more you rise above your limitations, and the better your life becomes - with ease.

"Each journey... healed me in ways I didn't realize I needed..."

by Trish Muse

Each journey through the caves healed me in ways I didn't realize I needed healing. The spirits of each stone brought me to my blockages and guided me through my healing. I can feel the shift within myself, my consciousness, that I was unable to recognize in the past.

The 7 Caves of Crystal Alchemy:

1. Calcination – Purification by Celestial Fire – APOPHYLLITE
Fire transforms. Burning away blocks and obstacles. Lifting out of fear and ego. Gaining a higher perspective. Filling with light. Receiving guidance.


2. Dissolution – Purification by Sacred Water – QUARTZ (or LEMURIAN SEED)
Water is the Universal solvent. Clearing energy. Dissolving emotional blocks. Unburdening. Reclaiming flow. Opening to intuition. Sacredness.


3. Separation – Re-Aligning with Your Soul – SHUNGITE
Clarity. Filtering out the noise. Releasing what no longer serves. Freeing yourself from outside influence. Hearing your truth. Authentic self-awareness. 


4. Conjunction – Embodiment of the Spiritual Self– LABRADORITE
Integration of the body and soul. Balancing the spiritual with the physical. Walking your life path with greater consciousness. Owning your truth. Finding balance.


5. Fermentation – Transformation Chrysalis – BLACK OBSIDIAN
Old identities and conditioning die off. Inner-sight develops. Bringing light into hidden places. Descending to ascend. Facing the shadow self. Reclaiming sovereignty and power.


6. Distillation – Embracing the Refined Self – ROSE QUARTZ
Tender self-love and compassion. Forgiving. Resting. Processing. Accepting the whole self. Refining and defining your identity with confidence. Finding peace in simplicity.


7. Coagulation – Divine Crystallization – SELENITE
Oneness. Living from a soul-centered place. Higher state of consciousness + frequency. Communication with Spirit. Walking your path with greater wisdom and discernment. Ascension.

by Camelia-Meda Tocaciu Mijea

I am starting to channel through caves from different other crystals that inspire me, like Amethyst and Celestite geodes, and also Malachite, Lapis lazuli, Stillbite, Rainbow Moonstone, Pyrite, Fluorite and Carnelian…

There is more to learn out there in crystal land

by Caroline Wong

“I enjoyed the videos and all of the teachings from Krista! Everything is well laid out and easy to find. I discovered that there is more to learn out there in crystal land. I underestimated the realms and places we could journey to. I feel like I deepened my connection to my crystals in a more spiritual way. It is as if they know what I need to experience and help recognize. My confidence has definitely elevated itself through this process.”

"The guided [journeys] and prompts for self reflection were very helpful"

by Rebecca Szathmary Robillard

I was curious about what the 7 stages of alchemy were and how crystals were used as part of what appeared to be a transformational experience. I loved that this course simplified the stages of alchemy and made it easy to apply to my own journey. The guided [journeys] and prompts for self reflection were very helpful…
