Last month, we talked about crystals and how they not only delight the eyes but are prized for their healing properties, and for strengthening our intentions.
At that time, I provided instructions on how to cleanse your crystals, so this month, we’ll talk about their properties.
Health
When it comes to powerful healing and cleansing, nothing beats Selenite. Wearing Selenite can energetically clear and purify the body, protect it from negative energy, and keep the mind, body and spirit in balance. As powerful as this crystal is, be careful when handling it. It can be so soft that you could scratch it with your fingernail! And worse—you could end up with a selenite splinter.
Wealth
Who wouldn’t want more wealth? You’d think everyone would be walking around wearing or pocketing Tiger’s Eye, Pyrite (also known as Fool’s Gold) and Jade. But these and other crystals represent more than just money. They represent success. And people gauge success in many ways that have nothing to do with money—success in love, friendship and happiness.
Love
This covers romantic love, self-love and happiness. Rose quartz could be helpful as it’s known as the stone of unconditional love. Malachite balances the mind and spirit, and is considered the love crystal for men. With love comes happiness, and for happiness, you’ll want to carry some Citrine. This bright stone with radiant energy can bring positivity, growth and abundance into your life.
Creativity
If you’re tired of playing it safe—break through with passion derived from Carnelian. This crystal is all about creativity, confidence and motivation.
New Beginnings
Time for a reboot of your life? Black Moonstone holds the energy of the New Moon and new beginnings. It is protective and grounding whether you’re starting a new project or a new job, or are pregnant.
Balance and Focus
Hematite is a protective and grounding stone that also can help balance the aura and align the chakras. Some students use Aventurine to help reduce physical distress so they can study more efficiently.
Pain
Smoky Quartz has been known to relieve chronic pain as well as headaches, muscle cramps and tension in the shoulders and back. Amethyst is often called the Master Healer and has been used to relieve arthritis pain, in particular. Black Tourmaline is also used for pain relief.
Stress Relief
The cleansing and purification properties of Amethyst offer clarity, peace, sweet dreams, and can help alleviate stress. Blue Lace Agate and Quartz Crystal also provide relief from anxiety and stress.
I very much enjoy working with crystals because of their healing and inspirational properties. I also derive great joy from creating jewelry that can enhance the lives of those who wear my pieces. I am guided by spirit on my clients’ needs, and enjoy helping them choose the crystals that delight them.
