Aside from being naturally beautiful, it is believed that crystals have some pretty significant healing abilities. How, you ask? We researched these minerals to determine what exactly makes them [ potentially ] powerful.
The use of crystals in healing has been traced back to the Egyptians. They were frequently used in rituals, when treating illness, and it’s even speculated that the pyramids were capped with crystals to channel cosmic forces into them.
Crystals connect us to the earth by harnessing the energies of the sun, moon and oceans. This is particularly beneficial when using a specific crystal to restore balance to one of our energy centres (aka “chakra”).
“Everything in life is vibration”
Albert Einstein
Just like us, crystals vibrate, which is why setting intentions with them can be so effective. They work by magnifying and modifying energy flow – allowing positive vibes to flow through your body, and ridding it of negative ones.
And just like us, they need to be cleansed and re-charged. That’s how wonderfully connected we are to this planet.
Plus, they’re just so diverse and gorgeous.
Here are 6 commonly used crystals and their associated healing property :
Rose Quartz – Love
Black Obsidian – Clarity
Clear Quartz – Balance
Tiger’s Eye – Courage
Amethyst – Intuition
Citrine – Joy
Whether you use them simply for decor or you’re using them for full-blown healing, it is your BELIEF in their abilities that make them work for you or not – and there is simply no wrong way to incorporate crystals into your life!
