Beginning Your Spiritual Journey

Spirituality is a journey of internal discovery, which helps you understand the world around you and the energies in your path.

Here at The Fifth Element Life, we know how confusing the concept of spirituality can be. There are misconceptions about spirituality and how to access cosmic knowledge. We have created a guide with everything you need to know at the beginning of your journey to escort you through this personal path.

Before we start, we want to give a warm welcome to the readers of TheSoulJourney.com. We have recently acquired the site and are grateful to see this encouraging and loving community grow. 

What Is Spirituality?

The concept of spirituality is broad, and it covers many perspectives. Generally speaking, spirituality means connecting to something bigger than yourself. Normally, we focus on The Earth, Nature, or The Cosmos.

Taking in the world like this helps us understand how our actions can affect others. It allows us to see the world and the knowledge it brings. It helps us connect to the energy around us, bringing a sense of calm.

There are many ways that the world connects to us, and our mind often receives this information without us knowing. When we are connected to the world, we can tap into this knowledge through dreams, awareness and intuition. 

The journey to knowledge is long, and you cannot expect to understand everything straight away. Instead, you can use guides like the ones we have created to help you unravel the information in front of you.

Explaining Crystal Meditation

Each crystal has its own healing or manifesting effect. This means they can either help bring a specific or general concept into your life, or help heal and repair the struggle you are dealing with.

To activate these effects, you need to meditate with the crystals. The crystals produce energy that you can tap into, allowing positivity to calm your world.

How To Meditate With Crystals

Before the meditation starts, your chosen crystals should be charged through the sun’s light. Put your crystals next to a window or outside and allow the sunlight to touch them. You can do this with moonlight too. The longer they charge, the more energy they can give.

When they are ready, get comfortable in whatever sitting position suits you, then hold your crystal in both hands and think about the task you want it to help with. Be as specific as possible. This crystal will then become the touchstone of that task. For example, when the meditation is complete, you might use it as a calming tool when social situations become overwhelming. When you need to use it, simply touch the stone to release the calming effect. 

Before you can use the effect, you need to ground yourself. In your meditation, you must search for your highest self, the version of you which does the most good. Using this self, you can ask the crystal for permission to use their vibrations for your task. Your intuition will tell you if your request has been answered.

Hold your breath, and feel for the energy’s acceptance.

The ritual shouldn’t take more than 20 minutes. Once you have completed your meditation, stretch your body and drink plenty of water. Don’t rush yourself at this moment. 

Once completed, you can use the crystal as intended when you need to avoid negative vibrations. 

When it has been used, you should recharge your crystal and meditate again.

The First Two Crystals You Should Use

The first crystal we would recommend is the Red Calcite. This crystal has strong vibrations that emit the energy of love. Also known as the crystal for the soul, its power can help you release anxiety, stress, and anger.

The second crystal we recommend is the Golden Healer Quartz Crystal. This crystal can help you bring your hopes and dreams to life. Its energy is empowering with bursts of motivation and self-confidence. The healing aspect of the crystal comes from its ability to protect you, clearing out negative energy and awakening your personal wisdom.

These are great first crystals, as they tackle everyday issues of self-doubt and anxiety. With their help, your life will become less worrisome.

Understanding Symbolism In Your Life

Symbolism is when your mind connects meaning to items, words, or images and shows you the phenomenon with strength. Your mind is creating a story to tell you something you have missed. The subconscious part of yourself, speaking to you and conveying information. 

Although our minds make different connections to the world around us, there are always similarities. Unless you have a personal connection to a Bear, for example, the symbolism of the animal will be the same for all of us.

You can manifest the emotions, outcomes, or desires you hope to achieve using these symbols.

Animal Symbolism

There are many ways to note animal symbolism in your life. If you often see an animal walking alongside you in life, this might be your spirit animal. If you want to call upon an animal to help you get through a struggle in life, then this is a totem animal.

Flowers Symbolism

You may want to add flowers to your meditation or dot them around your home to better produce the energy you wish to achieve. Each flower has its own symbolism and cultural significance.

Most flowers have more than one meaning, as you can see below. Mixing these meanings together could help you create a more specific manifestation.

Flowers For Admiration

If you want to show admiration when someone has made an achievement, these flowers would be the perfect way to celebrate. Although they all have their own history and connection, they each symbolize your admiration for the person.

You can give just one flower or have a bouquet with each admirable petal in. Choose from: Purple Allium, Clematis, Cyclamen, Purple Dahlia, Hibiscus, Honeysuckle, Pink Morning Glory, Sunflower, and Pansy.

Flowers For Ambition

If you feel your ambitions fading, you may wish to add these flowers to your home. Their ambitious energies could power you through any procrastination feelings you are having. You could pick one and place it at your desk, or let the choice below decorate your whole house through color and expression.

These are the flowers that represent ambition: Purple Acacia and Columbine.

Flowers For Anger

If you feel anger and need to concentrate on the negative feeling to process the emotion, you may wish to keep these flowers near you. Their energy can bring up those bubbling feelings as you deal with the hurt inflicting you.

In a different direction, you could also bring these flowers in bunches and release them from your home, stem by stem. As you do so, the angry feeling will leave you too. 

The flowers to help you on this journey are Alyssum, Orange Buttercup, and Petunia.

Flowers For Balance

If your life is feeling chaotic, and you need a sense of balance to maintain yourself, you may need to dot these flowers around your home. Place them in opposite corners of your room (if possible) to allow them to take full effect.

The flowers you should choose are Alyssum and Cosmos.

Flowers For Beauty

Although beauty is in the eye of the beholder, we all have days where our outward aesthetic matters to us. It could be a wedding, a party or simply those days when we feel down.

When you want to gather the energies that prosper beauty, use these flowers: Red Amaryllis, Cosmos, Daffodil, Dahlia, Heliotrope, Hibiscus, Jasmine, Lily, Hydrangea, Narcissus, and Poppy.

Flowers For Bitterness

Just like with anger, you may find yourself needing to deal with the bitterness in your life. Forcing these negative feelings to the surface can help you understand them and process them. 

It can be hard to keep those feelings around you, so to help maintain their energy, use these flowers in your cleansing routine: Alyssum, and Calendula.

Flowers For Courage

Courage comes from within, but there are always ways to tap into that energy. Flowers such as those below harness the power of courage and can help you stay strong.

You can add them to your clothes on particularly scary days, like a test or a challenging meeting. With their aura around you, you will feel empowered to get through the moment with bravery. 

The flowers you should choose from are Red Allium and Red Orchids.

Flowers For Deception

Sometimes we need to deceive others. You may wish to show happiness when you are actually uncomfortable. Or perhaps you want to show joy when in reality, you are displeased. Deception is necessary when your opinion will only harm a person for no good reason.

To help you protect those from unneeded truths, wear Clematis.

Flowers For Elegance

On days where elegance is of the utmost importance, you should bring these flowers into your home. Add them to your wedding dress, attach them to your graduation gowns, or simply keep them in mind when you meditate. Their energy will strengthen your elegant touch.

Choose these three flowers for elegance: Lavender Allium, White Alyssum, and Dahlia.

Flowers For Honesty

When truth becomes a burden, add Blue Alliums and White Heliotropes to your place of safety.

Flowers For Honor 

On days where you feel honored by your accomplishments, your life, the choices you have made, or others have made for you, you should add these flowers to your home. Alstroemeria, Mayflower, and Purple Morning Glory make a beautiful arrangement, and together their symbolism can manifest.

Use Amaryllis, Azalea, Yellow Clover, Crocus, Daffodil, Orange Orchids, or Poppy in your mediations.

Number Symbolism

You may find yourself noticing specific numbers in your life. Angel numbers are unique, conveying meaning and awareness, which others lack.

The most commonly known angel number is 3. It indicates wisdom, understanding, and harmony. Seeing this number throughout your day signifies that you are on the right path.

Normally Angel numbers are repeated like 11, 111, and 1111. When you see the numbers repeated often, it means the spiritual connection is desperately trying to inform you of something. However it’s important not to confuse your numbers.

Seeing 11:00 on your clock and then receiving a bill for $11.00 is a sign that the number 11 is calling you. But seeing the clock strike 11:11 doesn’t count as part of the pattern. 1111 is its own angel number.

The angel number 666 often gets a bad rap due to its Christian connection to Satan. But in reality, 666 often suggests a new start in life.

When you see a number repeated in your life, and you feel a connection to that number, search for the meaning, and you can discover what your spirit is trying to tell you.

Summary

Starting your spiritual journey means allowing the world to ground you. Opening your heart and mind to the energy around you and helping you tap into a connection you may never have reached before.

You can use these natural elements of life to manifest the desires you hope for. And you can use the information you find to understand what the earth is trying to tell you.

Start your journey slowly, and develop your learning bit by bit. Soon you will feel connected to your inner self and the world around you.
