How to pick your crystal
You must first acknowledge what you feel you’re missing before checking what the stones can provide you. This will help you understand what’s going on within yourself before depending on outside sources. Then you can just let your intuition guide you.
Whether a crystal catches your eye or you feel a physical pull toward one, your inner subconscious will help you pick the crystal that’s best for you. Once it’s picked out, you can create the connection you need.
How to care for your crystal
When you first bring your crystal, you must wash away any negativity it may have picked up. Depending on the type of stone, you can:
- Hold it under cold, running water
- Immerse it in sea salt [4]
- Place it in sun or moonlight
- Smudge your crystal with sage or other herbs [5]
You must do thorough research before getting your crystals wet. Some stones become toxic or dissolve when immersed in water. For crystals to function properly, you must mentally remove negative energies or any doings about their actions. You must respect what crystals can do for you.
