Enhydro Crystals

Enhydro crystals contain fluid, most often water although some very rare cases plant oil. A bubble of gas moves through the water. Enhydro really resonate with me. Contained within each enhydro crystal is water that has remained unchanged and pure for eons. As such I have always associated Enhydro with cleansing and purification, be it emotional, spiritual or mundane. Water is also a great element for dream or meditation work It is the element of feeling and as such helps me intuit the information I am 
receiving correctly. In cases where the bubbles move in these earth treasures they also teach us to flow easily through our troubles much as the bubbles freely flow in the pockets of water. I have also found them very helpful in healing and divination work.
