about "inner light crystals"
Amethyst Geode with Chalcedony
"Inner Light Crystals" is part of the "Inner Light" partnership, and is to be found in Bournemouth in Dorset on the South coast of the UK. This page will tell you about our logo, and how we (Hilary and Mark, who run "Inner Light") came to get involved (in this lifetime!) with all these wonderful crystals. Over a period of time it is our intention to load many more photographs and descriptions of all we sell, and also to fully set up our own "Crystal Uses" directory to help those who would like to know more about the metaphysical properties of many of the crystals that we can offer.
how we prefer to sell:
We do not own a shop or sell from shop premises and although we have now created a shopping basket internet site (Sorry - UK customers only at present!) we much prefer people to visit us and see and handle the crystals before buying. We sell mainly to students of crystal healing, mineral collector, and other healing practitioners who are interested in obtaining top quality crystals for their homes, collections, healing rooms or therapy centres. We are able to source and obtain many of the rarer and more unusual crystals you may be looking for as well as big specimen pieces - including many natural and polished crystals that are suitable for larger spaces or healing centres. If there is something special you need that you cannot find here, simply get in touch and we will see what we can source for you.
Group of "Fire" Quartz Crystals
The crystals that are in our care have their own Inner Light and consciousness, and are able and willing to work with humanity to help each of us allow our own "Inner Light" to grow and develop as we work respectfully in harmony with them. Our own home and lives are filled with crystals, which give to us freely of their energy, sharing their own tales, skills and joy with us on a daily basis. We consider ourselves privileged to be their temporary "guardians" and "earth-keepers" for the time that they are within our care. We frequently buy crystals knowing that we are simply a staging post for them, and that at some time their true and destined keeper will come to us to connect with them! Perhaps this might be you......

What our logo and name is about:
We have created a special logo for our Crystals website: when you look at it you will see an amethyst cluster sitting in a cavern filled with Golden Light, all set within a six-pointed star. Amethyst is a favourite crystal of mine - in fact the very first crystal I ever bought was an amethyst point! The design is based on a piece of stained glass that Mark designed and made, which represented the Element of Earth. The Golden Light represents the Light of Christ Consciousness and planetary Ascension. The six-pointed star represents a point of balance whereby the downward pointing triangle (Heaven coming down to Earth) meshes with the upward pointing one (mankind reaching up to Heaven), illustrating the saying "as above, so below". In numerology the name "Inner Light Crystals" equates to the number 8, the number of infinity and the never-ending repeating loop of Energy that joins one to All, and All to one - a symbol we have presented to us frequently in our esoteric work.

ABOUT HILARY AND MARK:
All "Inner Light" experiences are developed and overseen by soul partners and twin flames Hilary Hargreaves and Mark Brittain. Both of us are experienced workshop leaders and therapists who together have worked with subtle energies and crystals for many years. Along with our shared love and sense of humour we enjoy "time off" when we can, including getting outside in nature and walking in the beautiful New Forest or down by the beach. We are very lucky to be living and working in such a beautiful part of the country - although our true spiritual home is to be found in central Wales, where we try to have an annual period of Spiritual renewal and rejuvenation.
Mark has a natural affinity for working with crystals and with energies of all sorts, and his innate clairvoyance enables him to "see" energies, colours and Beings in other dimensions (including personal Guides, animal totems and Light Beings). In past lives he has worked with crystals and sacred geometry, and he brings this knowledge forwards to help with his work in composing energy grids for our crystal workshops, books and courses. He is a trance channel, conscious channel and proficient out-of-body traveller and his work includes healing, scanning and accessing information, as well as rescue and other clearance work whilst in his soul body.
Hilary is a graduate of the Institute
of Crystals and Gem Therapists and has been studying and working in the field
of complementary therapies and with esoteric matters since 1993. She is a
clairaudient, clairsentient and conscious channel who has worked with crystals
and Energy in many lifetimes. She is currently researching new workshops
and courses about working with crystals and crystal energy grids for Ascension
and to experience Celestial, Angelic, Ascended Master and other Archetypal
Energies. She is also the creator of decks of Cards, which may be used for
conveying Messages from the Archetypal realms, and is always working on new
ways of showing how crystals can help with personal spiritual growth and
transformation.........
I (Hilary) discovered the wonderful world of crystals in the early 1990s,
when learning aromatherapy in Gloucestershire. The training centre "just
happened" to be situated above a "New Age" shop, and I spent
many a wet lunch break inside the shop, looking at and handling some of the
lovely stones and crystals they had there. Mark and I were pretty hard up then
(it was the era of 15% interest mortgages!) and he lived in dread of me coming
home with yet another crystal, instead of food for dinner......... But life
went on, and my connection with the stones and excitement with their energies
and potential for transformation on many levels grew rapidly. Of course, being
the person I am, I wanted to know and understand more, and so at the end of
the 1990s I travelled to Exeter to study Crystal Therapy with Sue and Simon
Lilly, and my own collection of crystals just kept on growing!
Then in 2001 Mark and I were asked to run our first workshops, which were to
be based around working with crystal energies - usually in conjunction with
Archetypal energies like Ascended Masters, Angels or Celestial Beings. This
led to us setting up our own School to offer workshops and later professional
training in Crystal Healing and Energy Work, which of course meant we needed
to be able to supply and sell crystals to our students. From there things
simply snowballed, and from keeping just a few tumble stones for sale, I
gradually located some really good suppliers throughout the UK (and farther
afield) and began to supply a much wider range of crystals throughout a huge
range of prices and sizes. Today we have customers who spend 50p on just one
simple tumbled stone, and others who are prepared to outlay closer to £1000
for a fabulous rare or large crystal, often weighing tens of kilograms.
