Episode #82 – Create Closure After Loss, Breakups, or Trauma
Introduction to the Crystal Self Healer Podcast
Welcome to the Crystal Self Healer Podcast. I’m Corissa Weaver. On this podcast, we blend the magic of crystals with the science of psychology to help you break free from chaos, ditch the overwhelm, and master your emotions so you can have more energy, get more done and feel better every day. Get ready to unlock your intuition and restore your true power as we cover how you can transform your life using crystals and self-awareness.
Are you ready to get started? Alright, let’s go.
The Human Need for Closure
With the shows you watch, or movies you see, many offer a sense of completion neatly presented within its allotted time.
If we look at how humans go about storytelling from fables to modern tv, everything has a neat beginning, middle, and end.
It’s how we package everything up to make sense of it. So is it any wonder that when something in your life is left unresolved, you crave closure? That definite emotional ending?
This desire for closure creates emotional conflict.
And how do you heal and move on when you don’t have a stable base to rebuild upon?
In a world where resolution isn’t always readily available, we are going to explore things you can do to create your own sense of peace. By the end of this episode, you’ll have a practice you can use to create your own closure by using crystals.
I’ve been thinking about closure a lot over the last couple weeks, inspired by events happening with one of my kids.
It’s no secret that relationships end, people die, and jobs are lost.
Whether it’s from a freak accident, an illness, to the end of a relationship, for the most part, unless you are the instigator, these circumstances will never lend themselves to true unfiltered honesty or absolute knowing of why what happened happened.
Because we don’t know the reasons why, that’s what makes the process of healing worse, and you might fight against having no closure.
Nature doesn’t offer closure or resolution per se, but the stories and narratives humans create that creates the expectation for it. The expectation that resolution comes from outside through apology, explanation, justice, reciprocation. It’s what keeps the wound open.
Closure comes from being able to move through the emotions associated with the event, with the loss.
Exploring the Empress Card
For our card this week, we are going to focus on the energy to call in and the Empress card. Traditionally, this card is a symbol for creativity, resources, and motherhood, and you can deduce these themes by looking at the imagery.
This woman wearing a dress with pomegranates all over it. She’s sitting amid a lush forest with golden wheat in front of her and flowing water to her side.
And she’s sitting atop pillows and blankets with a scepter and star laden tiara atop her head.
This woman is showing she has the creativity to set up this fancy perch amid all the lushness and resources that make up what nurtures all life, mother Earth.
When you’re nursing the wounds of a loss, Empress energy, that nurturing and motherly energy is what will feel most comforting.
Loss has a way of making you feel like the rug has been pulled out from under you, so having access to what helps you feel like you are safe and part of this world will support you as you heal.
Creating Your Own Closure
In her work with terminally ill patients, Dr. Elizabeth Kubler-Ross compiled five stages of grief she observed most people go through, but not in a linear order. What she had been observing was the emotions and ways her patients were dealing with an abrupt realization or shock, similar to what we’ve been discussing here today.
While her work has been criticized as anecdotal, it does provide a framework to support processing a situation that feels unfair or traumatic.
When the cause of your hurt doesn’t make sense, you can find yourself wanting answers or relief by or from other people.
This is when you find yourself wishing you had been given more details or that you had received a more obvious or clear resolution.
This hands the power of your peace to someone or something else. And when that resolution doesn’t arrive, like it most often doesn’t, the ache calcifies into bitterness, fixation, or helplessness.
Even when you do, when someone returns an apology or a clear explanation, it doesn’t work unless you’ve already done the internal work to receive it without needing it.
You have to make your own peace with the situation. You need to create your own closure and not rely on getting it from someone or somewhere else.
You reclaim autonomy and authority over your life, your story, regardless of what is going on in the world external to you.
Closure is an internal shift where you stop investing energy into unresolved questions or unmet expectations, especially when no external resolution is possible.
You create resolution when you stop waiting for something you may never get.
You experience realignment when you adjust to live with what is.
And you rebuild your sense of self when you fill your life with what brings you joy and peace.
The Power of Orange Calcite
The crystal I’m going to offer that will support you here is Orange Calcite, and here’s why.
When you’re focusing on understanding why something happened, you’re often experiencing grief, confusion, or bitterness, sometimes getting stuck here. Orange Calcite helps release pent up emotions and stimulates a sense of lightness and clarity so you can start forward momentum.
Creating closure means you’re no longer waiting for someone else’s explanation, but writing your own version of the experience. By activating the sacral chakra, Orange Calcite fuels the creative energy required to reframe the story, find meaning, and reclaim your voice.
We all know that an emotional blow can create lethargy and exhaustion, and it can be hard to move on, even if you know that’s what is best for you. Orange Calcite holds an invigorating energy that will boost confidence to take the next step.
Orange Calcite is also excellent for aligning your thoughts and your will, helping you to overcome feelings of depression, shyness, or fear. It keeps you from getting lost in or over identifying with the pain so you can make peace with what is, rather than yearning for what could have been.
Crystal Ritual for Closure
Now here is a crystal ritual you can do with your Orange Calcite. To create closure.
You’ll need a clear surface, a few pieces of Orange Calcite, a Clear Quartz point, and other crystals that you feel support your energetic needs, maybe Lepidolite or Blue Kyanite.
Take some time to get calm and centered in the present moment by focusing on your breath.
When you feel grounded in the moment, bring your attention to the matter at hand, creating closure for yourself.
Focus on how that will feel, how it will benefit your daily life.
We’re not interested in how the closure will be created, by whom, or when, but the feeling of being free from the weight of the situation.
If your mind wanders to what is missing or what is wrong, gently bring it back to the feeling of closure that you desire.
Allow this desired feeling to expand throughout your body, from the tips of your toes to the crown of your head.
Enjoy this feeling and when you feel fully anchored in it, pick up your Clear Quartz and place it in the center of your designated space.
Surround the Clear Quartz with the other crystals in a pattern that is beautiful to you. Maybe follow a sacred geometry pattern or any other shape that connects you to the feeling you’ve just built.
Once you’ve completed placing the crystals, activate the grid you’ve just made and allow it to be in your space undisturbed as you do the inner work associated with creating the emotional freedom that closure brings.
