HOLY HANDGRENADE (approximately 12 fl oz)
by Don Croft
1. Fold a piece of typing paper twice and then open it into a cone shape. Tape
the overlap and underlap with masking tape to help it hold its shape.
2. After you've shaped it into a cone, put the opened cone upside down in a
paper cup.
3. We cut a 26" length of 18 gauge copper wire and form it into a clockwise cone
spiral (it resembles the tip of a big screw) so that it fits loosely inside the
paper cone. You can make it pretty rough or get one of Christy Murphy's nifty
conespiral bending forms from
www.quebecorgone.com. Orgone simply loves to run along and thru curved,
orderly pathways. 26" works well for us but there's no specific reason for the
length except Carol likes it. We haven't seen any evidence that 'lost cubits' or
other specific measures are relevant to this work, by the way.
4. Put a big pinch of metal particles into the pointy end of the cone, right on
top of the little end of the copper spiral. I like to use BBs (small, copper or
zinc-coated ball bearings that American kids shoot from air rifles) for the tips
of my HHgs but they're very heavy and expensive if you're making a lot of HHgs
and TBs. The spherical form and also the plated zinc and copper over steel
provide some pretty dynamic energy qualities but any meta waste from a machine
shop is more than sufficient.
5. Shove a fat xtal (my abbreviation for 'crystal'), point down, into the metal
so that it's standing up, then put a little more metal in to hold it in place.
I use very cheap, funky-looking crystals for this which have one distinct end.
Any form of quartz works fine, by the way, for any of the items mentioned in
this document-amethyst, rose quartz, citrine, etc. Save the nice ones for
personal devices, though, if you feel inclined to experiment with the dynamics
of gemstones. For an HHg I'll use anything that's at least an inch long and a
half inch thick with one distinct point. Gladys puts plenty of these in her
'per pound' orders, along with the towerbuster crystals.
6. Now pour enough catalyzed resin in to saturate the metal. If your metal
particles are too fine for the resin to pour thru before it hardens, mix the
stuff before you put it in the inverted cone-don't learn this the hard way, as I
did (and still do ;-)! The level of resin and the level of metal after it's
saturated needs to be about the same, otherwise you're wasting some resin. It's
better to have metal sticking out of the bottom of the finished product than to
have less metal than resin. It's the metal that does the work, apparently; the
resin is the matrix.
7. We add a bit of garnets, hematite and crushed pyrite to the orgonite,
sometimes; it's an optional process for this device but this is a tried and true
combination of minerals for enhancing and grounding the effects of the
material. If you've got a talent for this process, add whatever you like. If
you don't have a feel for it, be aware that the improper combination of elements
will reduce the effectiveness of your devices. There are books that can teach
you the properties of gemstones and minerals and these properties are greatly
enhanced by orgonite. My favorite, because it's based on a combination of
intuitition and empirical testing, is Michael Gienger's CRYSTAL POWER, CRYSTAL
HEALING. I don't personally care much for channeled literature because there's
no science behind it. Science and spirituality are inseparable, in my opinion.
Leaving one or the other out of our personal life leaves us either materialistic
or superstitious but when they're in harmony, we're
empowered and intelligent.
8. Fill to the brim, in stages if necessary, with orgonite and when it's hard,
it's finished. You can leave the paper on or peel it off. I leave the paper on
and sometimes paint them green and brown with spraypaint if I won't be burying
it and you'd be surprised how hard it is to see a camouflaged HHg once it's been
put in a bush or other hiding place.
9. Notice that I'm not putting any additional crystals in the mix as we'd
advised in earlier instructions. I simply found that using one bulky xtal in
the point makes the other ones extraneous. I think the coil is important in
this case. Save the fancy efforts for your personal devices
