All Matters Crystalline
The day is calm, with a gentle breeze stirring the awakening
summer energies. The enlivening atmosphere prompting the
multitude of questions I have for Keith Birch, owner of KSC
Crystals.Today we are discussing all matters of crystal healing,
presenting the opportunity for insight into the success of a
flourishing ethical business and the mind of a fair trader.
It is apparent from a multitude of testimonies and rewarding
feedback on the KSC website that a current of kindness runs
through the sales of Keith's business. Being in the healing
industry must carry an integral sense of responsibility and
consideration, I imagine. One that is obviously being held in
esteem in this case.
I mention my observation and Keith tells me the importance of
all this feedback. After all, the quality of KSC Crystals resides in
positive influence, which affects both the cycle of trade and the
crystal healers of the world. In reference to Keith's maintained
kind approach, I ask my first question; is this your main ethical
consideration in your business? Simply put and sincerely, Keith
responds, " to help people" and "bring knowledge to others."
Here stated are two instructions for the authentic crystal
healing path. Through the desire to help others by providing
guidance and assistance we generate energy of kindness and
positivity. Secondly, the act of encouraging others to learn the
art of self healing, through sharing of knowledge, increases the
amount of people who awaken to the amazing healing range of
the human body and spirit.

How do you maintain this fair trade stance? I ask. "Coming
from the heart everybody gets a fair deal," Keith responds.
Adding that "intuition, a sense of discernment and some self-
preservation," are essential. Acting from a place of internal
assurance creates trust between his stockists and an ability to
look after himself and others as a result. Interestingly, Keith's
insight sees that each crystal has a unique character of its own.
This character presents as a relatable feature to us, with our
methods of perception, sensing their individual vibrational
pattern. He develops his ability to "listen to the crystal," to
guide each one to their appropriate place to heal.
Having established the importance and authentic healing
methods Keith practices, I am interested to know what he
believes to be the true value of crystals. Not surprisingly, his
answer attends to the higher calling to repair the healing
framework in society. The framework particularly in the West
which takes the stance to deal with health matters as "a
sledgehammer to deal with a walnut", in his opinion. As a reiki
and crystal healer, Keith has noted that in times of physical and
mental distress there comes "a trigger" which causes people to
look to alternative healing methods which allow people to heal
themselves. From his own experience and encounters with
healing others, Keith advocates crystal use as a "gentle' and
"well-being " alternative. In practice, "you realise the more you
learn, the more there is to learn," he comments. The energetic
signatures of crystals present the means for energy
transference and balancing, allowing for chakra alignments to
occur. The "voice" of the crystal acting as a personalised
"tuning fork" for the needs at hand. It's time to outgrow the
cycle of 'pain and cure' established in the west; leaving room to
turn inward to replenish our energetic capacity for healing.
Allowing our cells to work with our consciousness and bring
recognition to the regenerating radiance of the body.

When I ask Keith if he has any examples of healing to share, he
established the personal nature of working on the self in this
way. Direct work with crystals "alleviated" many issues, having
the effect to "lighten things up", in his experience. In the case
of working with malachite, he noted good relief from specific
pain. Considering the personal achievements that occur from
working with crystals, I begin to wonder about the capacity for
wider influence and impact in society. What impact do you
estimate crystals have on our world? "Well, I think they are
becoming more accepted in the modern day world...The
beginning of a new era," Keith replies.
For those aware of the conscious shifts of humanity, furthering
the access to realms of awareness and cosmic understanding,
many believe crystal energies have offered an integral
planetary role in assisting our movement. In the knowledge
that crystals have been around for the duration of our Earth
incarnations, we can trace insight to past cultures and
illuminate traditions of which are rich in insight and existential
understanding. Keith mentions Atlantis; a myth to some and an
example to others. An example of demonstrating respect and
compassion for the elements in our environment which help us
gain knowledge and grow. In present times, with continued
integration of crystalline energy in the mainstream of society,
we can have faith in more respect for each other, look after
each other and alleviate modern day issues, Keith believes. If
this positive step continues to occur across the globe, we can
expect significant and long term impact When viewed like this,
such simplicity as connecting with nature in this potent way,
provides much inspiration and beauty to deepen the
understanding of our existence.
Our next consideration is about hope. I ask, what Keith hopes
to see crystal healing achieve in the world. His reply has a tone
of honesty, filtered with relief at his answers. "Tranquility,
acceptance, contentment and well being. Lightworkers coming

together..Being. Respect for each other. Expanding human
ethos one thousand fold, bringing more appreciation to the
world."
Embracing this, I consider whether certain crystals could be
applied to specific world situations. Keith maintains that
sufficient positive thoughts from enough people is a good way
to help ease global tensions. Creating crystal grids has the
power to direct attention to the appropriate area and assist us
in our altruism. Keith elaborated on a curious inspiration which
he followed through to completion; an idea to construct a
powerful energy grid with the intention to bring more light to
the world. I was lucky enough to see some of the grids effect
from where I sat. As I listened, I saw gradual changes to the
light in the air around me, which I can liken to turning up the
brightness on a screen. The essence of this light was intangibly
different to the sunlight I am used to recognising. It wasn't sun-
like beams of light from a source, rather a gentle brightness in
the space in front of me. It was mystifying to see this light
manifesting, emitting a quality of exuberance as part of
witnessing it. Such ability to direct light is one of the qualities
possible with crystal practice and represents some of the
talents that must be remembered to heal our world.
Finally, I ask, do you have any affirmations or requests for
crystal healing on the world? To my surprise, Keith draws my
attention to the present moment and says that he hopes our
conversation is a catalyst for future positive changes, intending
for a group of people to be reached from the ripple effect of
good. In his expression it is apparent that a beacon of
compassion has been lit, which I hope to see wave across the
world in his continued endeavors and all involved in this
process.
With special thanks to Keith Birch for his words of wisdom and

credit to his integrity in true values. With gratefulness to the
healers, readers and light-minded beings of the world who
continue to brighten our days.
Namaste!
