Labradorite is great for healing the aura
and doing some energetic repair because it
acts almost like a mirror
reflecting our own energy back to us and
strengthening and enhancing our aura.
It's also great for preventing leaks or
holes in the energy field.
So if you feel like, you know, no matter
what you do to bring energy
into your field or into your energy body, it
just sort of
dissipates after a while, try wearing
Labradorite
in some jewelry or just carrying it on
your person, a few stones.
You'll find that it really does act
preventively to keep that energy from
being released or from leaving your
aura. It holds onto
that good positive energy.
For grounding, it just depends on
how you resonate with certain
stones. So a lot of
people recommend Hematite for grounding,
but for me
personally, I don't resonate with it very
well. I resonate a lot better with
something like Smoky Quartz, Garnet,
Red Jasper,
or Black Obsidian. So, you know, it really just
depends on you as a person. You have a lot of
options.
But coupling your stone use with that
intention
is definitely the best way to get those
good grounding results - especially
through something like visualization. And
I really like to do a visualization
where
I sit flat on the floor and make sure that
my spine is perpendicular to the ground.
I close my eyes and visualize
that the top half my body is becoming
loose and free and swaying almost like a
tree or plant.
while the bottom half my body becomes 
rooted into the ground - literally rooted.
I visualize roots coming out of my legs and
growing deep down into the earth.
Absorbing some good grounding
energy from the
earth, and then pulling universal energy
in through my Crown Chakra
sending it all the way down through my body,
and sending some of that universal energy to
replenish the earth.
Then I see those roots slowly
retract, become my physical body again,
and then I'll open my eyes and come back
to conscious awareness
while holding my grounding crystal. I
feel like
then that stone has really been
programmed with that visualization and with
that sense of feeling really rooted in and
connected.
It can then be used throughout the day,
sort of a touch-stone to remind you to
stay grounded and be
in that energy. I always thing of Aqua Aura Quartz as being
for communication with my guides and 
angels, so that wouldn't be for me as
much of a grounding stone. But for other
people it very well may be because of the
gold content in there.
That's a cubic crystal that's very
connected with the earth so that could
definitely be used for grounding that
way.
