How to Find and Use the Right Healing Crystal For You

healingcrystals

The use of healing crystals for healing and ceremonial purposes can be traced back thousands of years. In fact, scientists have discovered natural citrine in Egyptian talismans or amulets, which were commonly worn as protection against evil spirits in their daily lives and during burial. The Greeks carved out amethyst stone and incorporated it into sculptures and ornaments, and the iridescent, magical Moonstone was a favorite symbol of Hindu mythology.

Today, people use gemstones to protect against negative energy that accumulates from electromagnetic radiation, the hectic pace of modern life, and being human in an age of technology and overwhelming stress. Wherever you happen to be on your spiritual journey, crystals are a simple and effective way to harness powerful energy that was created on the Earth’s crust millions of years ago. In the world of dazzling gemstones, opportunity always rocks!

Choosing the Right Healing Crystal For You

Finding the right crystal to aid you on your life path is similar to any practice of wellness. Just like yoga or meditation, experts recommend quieting the mind with deep breaths, which helps center the mind and body and bring attention to the present moment. This way, you can focus your mind on the true intentions of your life without the distraction of worrying about tomorrow, the ugly beast of the unknown. The future can be a scary concept to contemplate, but when you fully relax mentally and physically, you can begin to hone in on what you need in order to thrive and have control over your destiny.

Gem enthusiasts often say that you don’t choose the stone, but rather the stone chooses you. Stones might be beautiful on their own with their shimmery and dazzling aesthetic, but if you carefully meditate on why you need it in your life and how you can use it for healing, happiness, and good fortune, you’ll find yourself inexplicably drawn to a particular healing crystal.

Healing crystal experts recommend contemplating on a particular challenge or problem that you’re about to face. Sometimes this is easy to pinpoint, but if your intentions feel too vague or general, here are a few questions that can help in choosing the perfect stones for your particular spiritual and healing needs.

Stand in the presence of the stone or hold it in your hand and ask a few simple questions:

  • Will this stone protect me on my journey?
  • What is a good course of action for my particular challenge?
  • What does the future hold?

Ask the stone for guidance or insight into a problem or conflict that’s on your mind.

It’s also important to do what your 3rd grade teacher always told you: listen. It seems self-explanatory, but with garden variety emotional issues such as denial, anger, or depression making your spiritual vision cloudy, listening to your mind and body in a state of deep peace and relaxation is the best way to invite the perfect energy into your life, and in this case the gem that truly rocks your world. Walk around a gem store and choose whatever stone stands out among the others. If you feel sensations such as hot or cold, pulsations, or calmness and peace, then it’s a clear sign that the crystal is perfect for your healing needs.

Your Go-To Healing Crystals

Intuition is important, but it also helps to have basic knowledge of the healing properties of gemstones. There are thousands of different types of naturally occurring minerals found on the earth’s crust, but a few gemstones stand out among the rest for their well-documented physical and metaphysical healing properties.

Rose quartz is one of the most popular stones for its lovely light pink color and shimmery effervescence. It also opens the heart to unconditional love and gratitude while cleansing the aura of toxic emotions related to love such as anger, tension, and resentment. People often say that these feelings transform into hope, faith, and inner peace when they have rose quartz close at hand. Rose quartz also activates the heart chakra, which makes it an ideal stone for boosting confidence and balancing emotions.

Another essential gemstone for your collection is Angelite, a blue stone that is known for its peaceful and calming effects. Also known as blue anhydrite, its vibrations encourage and enhance communication with angels and guides from the spiritual world. The blue anhydrite gypsum is originally from Peru, but is also found in other countries such as Germany, Poland, Britain, Libya, Egypt, and Mexico. An effective way to use angelite is placing it under a pillow for a peaceful sleep and clear memory of your dreams.

Citrine is another shining star of earth’s rock kingdom, especially the natural, highest-grade stone, which is rare in the world of healing crystals. It is known to help release fear and negativity by opening you up to the light. Powered by the energy of the sun, this dazzling pale yellow to brownish orange gemstone is a powerful tool that aides in connecting you to your true intention in every moment.

Another stone that is useful for an upcoming spiritual journey is Black Tourmaline, a protective gemstone that neutralizes negative energy by distilling it and turning it positive. This strong and spiritually grounding crystal is also known for its ability to bring in healing energy from other crystals, which makes it a must-have for your healing crystal collection. Gem experts recommend wearing it close to the body to help cleanse the aura on a daily basis. You can also place it in the bedroom to keep you feeling refreshed and sleeping more soundly.

Moonstone is another healing crystal that has captured many spiritual hearts. According to ancient lore, this gemstone is made of moonbeams and if you look closely, it looks like a full moon shining through a veil of thin, ethereal clouds. The light that shines across the stone is called adularescence, which resembles moonlight glowing in water under a starry night sky. Composed of two feldspar minerals, orthoclase and albite, moonstone connects you with the divine feminine goddess found within. Some claim that you can see the future if you hold the moonstone in your mouth during a full moon.

Healing crystals are powerful tools for enhancing your natural state of joy and sharpening keen powers of intuition. Sparkling in the moonlight or harnessing the energy of the sun, gemstones are also a beautiful addition to your everyday wellness routine.
