Top ๐ฉ Starter Kit "Must Haves ๐ฟ๐๐ ๐ ๐ฒ๐พ๐ ๐ฟ-๐ซ๐๐๐พ ๐ฉ๐๐๐๐๐พ๐"
We can all agree that whether you are new to the world of crystals or have been using them for decades, every crystal collection should include some must-haves! With so many crystals in our universe and so many applications, deciding which is the most important can be difficult! We will highlight our top nine most dependable crystals in this article, which we believe every healer of God should have in their toolkit as well. So let's get started!
Quartz (Smoky or Clear):
Most people associate crystal healing with either clear or smoky quartz! This is because this abundant and powerful crystal is beneficial to all people and all types of energy! For example, smoky quartz has incredible manifestation properties as well as the powerful ability to transform negative energy! With so many different varieties, colors, and shades, quartz has to be in your top 8!
Rose Quartz:
We can't leave out the powerful Rose quartz after mentioning clear and smoky quartz! Rose quartz encourages self-love, love, and all things related to the heart or heart chakra. Whether it is love, compassion, or kindness, this stone can help strengthen unconditional and romantic love in your life.
Citrine:
The next item on our must-have list is citrine! Citrine has a strong ability to boost self-esteem and self-image while also promoting prosperity! What human being wouldn't want more of that? I don't think there's a single person alive today who wouldn't benefit from a boost in self-esteem or optimism! So make sure to keep some Citrine on hand!
Turquoise:
This stunning Blue/Green mineral promotes luck and well-being while also aiding in calmness and centering due to its chakra clearing properties. It has a powerful effect when combined with meditation, stillness, and breathwork. Which is fantastic, because who wouldn't want to wear a stunning piece of turquoise every day?
Amethyst:
This eye-catching purple stone can be used for many things! While we may think amethyst is "everywhere," this one-of-a-kind mineral deserves to be in everyone's top 8! Amethyst allows us to tap into our natural intuition while also ensuring that we are on the right track. It also bridges the gap between the dream and waking worlds, allowing us to connect with our subconscious. Definitely important!
Tourmaline Black:
Black tourmaline can be extremely beneficial to us at times when we most need it! It has an amazing ability to repel negative energy and return us to the light. When going through a breakup or other type of interpersonal change, its protective and energy clearing properties can be extremely beneficial. When we use this stone, we are gently guided away from our negative thoughts and emotions! Always keep some on hand!
Fluorite (Rainbow Fluorite):
Rainbow fluorite comes in an almost infinite variety of colors and shades, which is appropriate for this powerful stone because it has nearly as many applications! Fluorite is something we keep on hand to help with connection, intuition, and concentration. When life gets tough and things seem overwhelming, Fluorite is a great stone to help guide you to the completion of your goals. Fluorite can help us access our intuition more easily and overcome major challenges with love and compassion. This is an excellent crystal to have on hand when starting a new job or beginning a difficult new school assignment. For these reasons, we strongly suggest Fluorite to round out our top eight!
While there are many more benefits and uses for these eight crystals, this overview will get you started on your journey. Your personal list may be different and that is what makes this so great! There is no wrong answer and absolutely no wrong way to go about the practice of crystal healing! It is all about finding out what works for you specifically and no one else! We wish you the best of luck as you venture into the fascinating realm of crystal healing.
5 Tips for Crystal Shoppingย
Because I have such a deep respect and admiration for crystals, I take the purchasing of a new one very seriously! Here are my top 5 tips for adding a new crystal to your collection. These will assist you in making a more knowledgeable and intuitive selection. So, relax and enjoy the process! These pointers will be useful whether you're visiting a crystal store or even a gem exhibition. So, get out there and have some fun with it!
1: Research, Reputation and Reviews.
Isn't this a bit much? It's only a crystal, after all! For me, however, this is an absolute necessity. You are going to want to briefly look into the three Rโs! (research, reputation, and reviews). When I buy a new crystal, I'm introducing into my life, bringing it into my home, and potentially keeping it for the rest of my life! Why wouldn't I want to learn a little bit more about the person selling me the crystal, as well as the experiences of others in my situation? I'm not suggesting you spend a lot of time on this, but rather investigate it! Check it out and make sure you like what you see.
2. Center Yourself Before Going into a Crystal Shop.
There's a lot going on! You can't contain your excitement...there are vivid hues and dazzling lights everywhere! With so many amazing stones to pick from, even entering a crystal store can be daunting at times. Before you enter, take a moment to practice some deep breathing or grounding. Consider your aims and what you want to achieve with this purchase. Resist the impulse to "grab everything" and instead attempt to tap into your inner wisdom so that you may leave knowing you made the proper choice.
3. Ask Questions
Any respectable salesperson will gladly help you in any way possible! Don't be afraid! Ask those questions; most crystal dealers have extensive knowledge of their items and are happy to share their expertise! The better informed you are, the more satisfied you will be with your purchase. Alternatively, if you don't like the responses, you receive when you ask questions, perhaps you shouldn't be shopping here on this particular day. Maybe the universe is trying to tell you something? The shop's energy or vibrations can undoubtedly transfer to their crystals, so make sure you're happy with the overall experience!
4. Follow Your Intuitionย
As you go around the store, pay attention to your body, thoughts, and feelings! We are frequently pulled to places and things that the universe wishes for us to witness. If you feel a "pull" towards something or somewhere, don't be afraid to investigate it. Don't overlook it! I firmly believe that our intuition will lead us to the correct stone. Perhaps this isn't the crystal you were hoping to find today, but it could be just what you need right now. Last but not least, have fun and believe in yourself!
5.Touch and Hold Them!
Doesn't that sound simple? But you'd be surprised how many people buy new crystals without โactuallyโ holding them! That's like purchasing a new car without taking it for a test drive! It is an absolute must! So, hold that crystal and observe how it affects you. Close your eyes, relax your mind, and consider how it feels in your hand. This is one of the most essential steps when acquiring a new crystal, so don't rush it!ย And remember, if the shop or vendor objects to you handling a particular stone, take your business elsewhere!ย
Top 4 Crystal Cleansing Rituals!
These crystal cleansing rituals are an important spiritual step in the practice of crystal healing and energy work! These mini ceremonies will aid in the removal of any bad or stagnant energies that may have gathered through time on your precious stones. Periodic cleansing is highly suggested because crystals can, and will, pick up the energy and emotions of the people and places with which they come into touch!
Crystals can be cleansed using a number of methods, each with its own history and set of benefits. Let's have a look at my top four approaches, in no particular order! These are some of the basic practices to get you started! As you advance deeper into this world, you can take on more customized and advanced procedures for cleansing your own crystals! Remember, crystal cleansing is all about finding out what works best for you and which procedure will produce the best results in your individual situation!
Moonlight:ย
When most people think of crystal cleansing, the first thing that comes to mind is usually moonlight! This is without a doubt the most common and well-known of the approaches we will cover today!
Simply leave your crystals outside overnight in an area where they may absorb the soothing moon rays without being obstructed by trees or buildings. The strong moonlight will work overnight to purify the negative energy that has gathered on or within your stones. This process will also revitalize and recharge your crystals, allowing you to get the most out of them with a clean slate!
Have fun with this strategy; experiment with different combinations and places to determine what works best for you. As previously stated, this method is highly personal and should focus on what works for you rather than what works for everyone else. Some people solely use full moons for this method, while others use multiple moon phases. Have fun and figure out what works for you!
Water:ย
Rinse your crystals with water to help rid them of impurities and accumulate energy! Sounds easy, doesn't it? However, there are numerous combinations to experiment with! Perhaps it's tap water, perhaps it's flowing river water (my favorite! ), perhaps it's lake water...see what I mean? Whatever method you use to begin, I recommend immersing your stones in water for at least 2 minutes. While these crystals are in the water, I like to slow down and focus on my intentions for them. Consider what I want to achieve and what they can do for me. Allow myself to be open to all the amazing things the universe has to offer. I've noticed that combining the water cleanse with the intention setting produces excellent results.
On a side note, I do not recommend using salt water to clean crystals because it can harm specific minerals. Just make sure you do your homework and figure out what will work best for your particular gem. I'm not saying there's never a time to use salt water; there could be the ideal combination of stone and salt where this would be advantageous but check first! What a shame it would be to try to clean your lovely stone and ruin it!
Sage or Palo Santo:ย
Crystals can be purified in the same way that you would clear your home or area of negative energy with a smudging process. Simply ignite the sage or palo santo to create smoke and try to let that smoke engulf the whole surface of the crystal. This procedure, whether by holding the crystal in the smoke or gently blowing the smoke on the crystal, will help to renew and balance your stones.
I like to do some moderate intuitive work as the smoke engulfs my crystals, similar to the water procedure we discussed before. I prefer to sit quietly and imagine the smoke as a soothing wave softly washing over my crystals, removing all negative energies.
Of course, there are other forms of this procedure, and you can also use supplementary instruments like feathers or shells. Pro tip: Combine home smudging and crystal cleansing to reap the advantages of both!
Earth/Grounding:ย
This is my personal favorite method because it is very hands-on! Simply place your crystals in the ground! Many people overlook this strategy, but you should give it a shot! Make a small hole in the earth and thoroughly encase your crystals in it. Allow our great mother earth's positive grounding powers to cleanse your crystals of bad energy. Restore and revitalize your stones' balance so they can better aid you on your path.
I prefer to make this a mini ritual, adjusting the depth, location, and soil type to fit my purposes. If I have a crystal that has to be cleansed more thoroughly, I may dig a somewhat deeper hole on a bluff overlooking the ocean, for example, and leave the crystal for an extended length of time. This is simply an example; the technique can be carried out just as easily in your own backyard! Setting intentions and conducting some visualizations go great together with this strategy!
These are just a handful of the most popular ways to clean your crystals! As previously stated, this is a profoundly intuitive and personal process; there are no 'wrong ways' to approach it! Enjoy the experience of working with these strong tools and everything they can do for us! Have fun, listen to yourself, and enjoy the journey!
Crystal Rituals for Anxiety

But let me ask you this: have you ever looked into using crystals as a tool in the process of reducing anxiety? Today, we will take a look at some basic crystal healing steps that you can take to help create a more balanced and harmonious life!
Crystals have been prized for their restorative qualities for ages, and many people believe that they possess a soothing energy that can assist in bringing the mental, physical, and spiritual aspects of one's being into alignment with one another. If you are experiencing feelings of exhaustion and anxiety, including crystals in your daily routine may be a straightforward and efficient method to achieve some much-needed reduction in symptoms!
ย
Letโs talk about four of the basic methods that we like to recommend for people just getting started in this space. Try them out and keep an open mind!
Meditation Crystals:
Practice your meditation with crystals! We all know the benefits of meditation nowadays! But incorporating crystals into your meditation practice can add another dimension of healing energy to the process, making it an even more effective method for lowering anxiety! Crystals are known to have a wide variety of healing properties, so the combinations and experiments that you can practice are almost endless!
ย
During your meditation, take a deep breath and think about which crystal you would like to incorporate. See if you are drawn to a particular stone. Let your intuition guide you, or just experimentโthere are no wrong answers here! What works for you might not work for me, so have fun with it! A crystal that has a calming effect may be the best place to start, such as amethyst or rose quartz. After you choose the crystal, keep it in the palm of your hand or rest it on your chest. Focus on your breath, relax your mind, and concentrate on the energy of your chosen crystal. Allow it to assist you in lowering your anxiety and increasing your peace of mind during your meditation.
Take One with You!
Take a relaxing crystal with you wherever you go! I know this sounds simple, but seriously! Give it a try! There are numerous crystals with tranquil and soothing energies, such as amethyst, rose quartz, selenite, and so many more. Try some experiments, what do you have to lose!? Simply carry one of these crystals with you throughout your day; it could be in your pocket, handbag, or as a piece of jewelry! Placement does not matter as much as just having the crystal in your possession and letting its calming energy bring a sense of stability and grounding to our hectic lives! Like we said earlier, experiment with different stones and placements and see what works for you! If you notice the positive effects, you can expand to keeping a crystal in your desk or car, depending on where you need it most!
Crystal Bath:
Take some time for yourself and enjoy a crystal bath! If you are just having โone of those weeksโ that feels extra stressful, try this method out! It can be a great way to add another level of calm and self-care to those tough days we all have!
ย
Fill your bathtub like you normally would, place a few calming crystals around the bath, add a few drops of your favorite essential oils, and light a mellow-scented candle. Dim the lights, play some ambient music, or whatever it takes! This is all about you! This is all about taking some time for yourself and letting the crystals add another layer to the experience! As you are in the tub, focus on your breath and try to clear your mind. Allow yourself to enter a deep state of relaxation and watch the sense of calm it will bring you!
Crystal Grids:
Using crystal grids for anxiety A crystal grid is a sacred area that is formed by arranging crystals in a certain pattern to create a beneficial effect. If you suffer from anxiety, constructing a crystal grid may be a good way to help you feel more at ease in your surroundings.
ย
To begin making your own crystal grid, select a few crystals with a relaxing energy, such as amethyst or rose quartz. You can find a bunch of resources online, and I would recommend starting with a simple pattern first! Arrange the crystals in a formation that seems right to you (there are many different patterns to choose from). Spend some time each day connecting with the energy of the crystals and concentrating on your breath. You can do this by positioning the grid in an area where you will be able to see it frequently, such as on your altar or by your bedside.
Conclusion:
Incorporating crystals into your daily routine can be a simple and effective way to find some much-needed peace, reduce anxiety, repel negative energy, and nourish your low frequency spirit. We as human based structures are made up of energy, every cell in our body & recharging is necessary to survive!
Depression is just a lower-level battery draining frequency with crystals they will absorb that energy and in return give you their electrical charge to get your spiritual battery backup & running.
Whether you carry a calming crystal with you, use crystals in a crystal bath, create a crystal grid, or meditate with crystals, the key is to find the ones that resonate with you and make it a consistent part of your daily healing practice.
With time and consistent effort, you'll start to feel the positive effects of the crystals on your overall well-being and a newfound sense of calm. I challenge you to get out there and implement one of these methods, starting today!
