Crystals and their energies
Crystals are powerful tools in the use of energy work, and they have been used for centuries to tap into the energy. Each crystal has its own unique energy signature that can be harnessed and utilized in your everyday life to manifest specific intentions. Working with crystals and their energies involves connecting with the stone on an energetic level so as to open up to their guidance, allowing one's frequency to align with the vibrational frequency of the crystal.
This connection is made through visualization and meditation techniques, where one focuses on tapping into certain crystals' healing frequencies. The more intention you put into working with them, the greater impact they will have on your journey. Crystals shine a light onto parts of our lives that we may not be able to see ourselves and help us stay balanced, shifting from trapped, low vibes energies to ones that are more aligned and liberated.
How crystals can be used for new beginnings, such as setting intentions or letting go of negativity
Crystals are full of energy and can be used in various ways to help us manifest our dreams and create new beginnings. Setting intentions with crystals can open up our awareness to new possibilities, focus on what matters most, and keep us grounded and motivated toward our desired outcomes.
They can also help us let go of negative patterns or habits that no longer serve us, allowing us to release old energies and make space for something new. Crystals provide a sense of protection and connection to something greater than ourselves – making them the perfect tool for creating powerful energetic shifts that help guide us through any beginning we want to embark upon.

How to cleanse and charge your crystals
Just as people can change their energy to match a crystal, crystals can change their energy to match their surroundings. If a crystal is handled or moved, its energies may change. It is important to cleanse the crystal regularly to keep its pure energy. Any method will work, although we prefer sound or sage for their convenience.
Leave Them In The Moonlight
Allow your crystals to bathe in the moonlight's divine energy. Place them on a windowsill or leave them outside overnight for the full benefits of this celestial bath.
Cleanse Them In A Bed Of Quartz
Empower the energy of your large quartz geode by placing smaller crystals inside for up to a day, and you will quickly see it come alive with positive vibes.
Use Sound
If you have brass singing bowls or crystal singing bowls, bring the singing bowl to ringing and then hold the crystals within the sound field.
Use Smoking Sage
Light a sage bundle or smudge stick, allowing the smoke to drift over the crystals. This is an excellent way to cleanse a bunch of crystals at once.
Salt Or Water Cleansing
Nonporous crystals, such as Quartz and amethyst, can be soaked in a saltwater solution. Submerge your crystals in the salt water for about an hour (longer if they have had heavy use), then rinse them and pat them dry. Use sea salt or Himalayan pink salt for this task, not table salt.
Do not use this method for porous crystals, such as selenite, desert rose, and gypsum. You'll also want to keep magnetic stones, such as lodestone, out of salt water because it could rust the stone. You should never cleanse any raw or natural crystal in salt, water, or saltwater.
Other Crystals You Should Never Cleanse This Way Include:
Amber, Calcite, Kyanite, Malachite, Moonstone, Opal, Selenite Topaz
Programming Crystals
When working with energy, the intention is key. You can program freshly cleansed crystals with intent if you wish to work with a specific energy. This is especially helpful if you only have a few crystals. For example, clear Quartz works with virtually every energy, but when you program it with intent, it makes the crystal even more powerful. To program a crystal:
Hold It In Your Giving (dominant) Hand To Program A Crystal:
Hold it in your giving (dominant) hand, close your eyes, and picture your intent. For example, if your intent is prosperity, repeat the affirmation "I am prosperous" as you hold your crystal.
Imagine your intent turning to light and traveling through the arm, into the hand, and into the crystal for three to five minutes.
How to use crystals in your daily life
Crystals can be a helpful and powerful tool if you know how to use them. To get the most benefit from crystals, one strategy is to carry or wear them with you and hold them during meditation or visualization exercises.
This physical contact allows for a greater connection between yourself and your crystal, enabling more powerful energy transmission.
Placing crystals throughout the home also adds a layer of protection while functioning as focal points that bring intention into your environment. For example, placing stones such as rose quartz or moonstone near your bed can help you get restful sleep after a long day, while agate can act as a protective barrier for the entire family. So remember, when trying to balance mind and soul, adding crystals into your daily life might just make all the difference.
Crystals are a powerful tool that can help us balance our minds and souls. Whether it's wearing them on your body, placing them around the home, or using them in visualization exercises, crystals have the potential to bring positive energy into our lives.
As we move forward into 2023 with hope for new beginnings, why not give yourself an extra boost of positivity by incorporating more crystals into your daily life? A few well-placed stones may just be what you need to make all the difference this upcoming year!
