Crystals are magnificent minerals formed over millions of years in the earth’s crust. They produce the most beautiful natural colours depending on the minerals present. For instance, the high copper content gives malachite its beautiful green colouring.
The beauty that lies in every crystal is in its energy vibration. Different crystals give out different energetic vibration. For example lighter and brighter crystals such as citrine resonates positivity and zest. When we gaze deeply at citrine, we feel recharged, happier and light. On the other hand, darker crystals such as onyx, bloodstone and obsidian have a slower, grounding vibration. Wearing one of these crystals make us feel more grounded and composed.
Interestingly, we also have an energetic vibration. Our bodies are made up of energy and matter and a large proportion is water. Holding, wearing or placing crystals on our bodies will attune the energy of the crystals with that of ours, creating the best possible balance. Crystals like amethyst can be placed under your pillow to help you sleep better, others are good for holding in your hands while you meditate such as rose quartz, clear quartz and lapis lazuli for problem-solving, clearing the mind of clutter and attaining a particular spiritual state of mind. Other crystals are good to be worn on the body or kept in the pocket.
Crystals can help to soothe the energy of a certain emotion, open our mind so we have more understanding of a situation or simply lift our mood so we feel more positive and happy in times of emotional stress.
It is important to choose the right crystals to work with to help in attracting positive energies or absorbing negative ones.
