5 Tips for Picking Crystals

Writer's picture: ~ Reiki S ~~ Reiki S ~

1. When visiting a crystal shop, walk around, and look at the selection first. See if any stones call to you.

Sometimes we don't know why we feel called to crystals. We have an urge, especially when walking past a crystal store to go in and feel drawn to particular stones. Our body, aura, and spirit know what we need even if we don't. This is also a chance to hone in on your intuitive skills.


2. Don't second guess what you are drawn to!

Most crystal shops have crystal books, cards, and other resources to educate you about the stone. Most importantly go with what you feel and question why you were drawn to the particular stone. Normally, once you read up on the stone you realize it's exactly what you need at the moment.


3. Use your dominant hand when picking crystals. Hold it in your hand for a min of 60 seconds.

Your dominant hand will feel the crystal's vibration when placed over it. When holding crystals you want to feel the energy of the crystal. Sometimes you might be drawn to crystals but the energy may be too much for you to handle. The same energies that may attract you, may also aggravate you. This simple 60-second trick will save you time and money in the long run.


4. Learn the different shapes of crystals and their uses.

Tumbled stones, pyramids, points, towers, and spheres, where does one even begin? Different types of crystals emit different amounts of energy. Some emit contained energy, some expel energy in different directions, and some amplify surrounding crystals. Pairing crystal shapes with different types of crystals can create peace or chaos, choose wisely.


5. Decide how you will embody the crystal.

There are many variations to wearing and embodying crystal energy. Some examples are jewelry, a crystal bag, on your person, in your drinking and bath water. Learn the positions of the body and where its placement is most effective. VERY IMPORTANT - Know where you can wear certain crystals, some vibrations may be too intense or affect certain organs. IE. Never wear Tourmaline above the Heart Chakra. The energy can be intense for the upper chakras and

shut the chakra down.
