There are so many fun tools you can use on your spiritual journey—pendulums, tarot and oracle decks, spirit boards... but today we’re exploring a bit into crystals!
If you’re crystal-curious and wondering where to even begin—don’t worry, you’re in the right place. I’ve created this FREE crystal guide for beginners just for you to kickstart your journey with confidence and ease.
Let’s explore three of the most popular beginner crystals and why they’re total must-haves in any collection:
Clear Quartz
This beauty is the ultimate stone. Often called the “Master Healer” or “Universal Stone,” Clear Quartz is known for its power to amplify energy, intentions, and spiritual connections. It’s like a little energy megaphone for your goals and manifestations! Plus, it’s amazing for balancing and cleansing all your chakras. Basically... she does it all!
Rose Quartz
Soft, pink, and full of love—Rose Quartz is known as the “Stone of Unconditional Love.” It’s your go-to for cultivating self-love, emotional healing, forgiveness, and heart-healing vibes. It also helps attract loving connections and deepen the relationships you already have. Total heart chakra magic!
Amethyst
Ahh, Amethyst—my personal favorite! This stunning purple stone is all about spiritual wisdom, calming energy, and intuitive vibes. It supports you in connecting with your higher self, spirit guides, and inner knowing. Perfect for meditation, dreamwork, or just creating a peaceful, sacred space wherever you are.
So... How Do You Use Crystals?
There are so many fun ways to work with your stones! You can:
Meditate with them
Place them around your home or altar
Wear them as jewelry
Add them to crystal grids
Use them during energy work (like reiki, sound healing, or breathwork)
Incorporate them into moon rituals or manifestation practices
Keep them close during journaling, shadow work, or any other inner healing work
There’s no “one right way” to work with crystals—let your intuition lead the way.
Cleanse + Recharge Your Crystals
Crystals are energetic beings too, so don’t forget to give them a little TLC. Some easy ways to cleanse include:
Smoke cleansing
Visualizing white light clearing their energy
Using sound (singing bowls or tuning forks work great)
Placing them on a Selenite plate (my personal fave!)
Charging them under the moonlight (gentler than sunlight, which can fade certain stones)
Each crystal has its own preferences, so it’s always good to double-check if your stone is safe for things like water or sunlight.
