Maybe you have heard about the amazing benefits of crystals and gemstones, and are considering getting some to see for yourself what kind of impact they could have on your life?

First, Be Clear About What You Want Your Crystals For

If you mainly want crystals and gemstones for decorative purposes or just to wear them as jewelry, and are not really interested in their energetic properties, then this part will be super easy for you. Simply choose the stones that are most attractive to you. This would seem easy enough, however if you want to keep your crystals looking beautiful for a long time, you will also need to consider the physical durability of the stones in terms of the hardness, sensitivity to water, sun exposure and so on. If you are looking for the energetic properties of the crystals to help enhance, heal or support your body, mind and spirit in any way, then read on because this will be the main focus of this blog post.

 

In learning to harness the energetic properties of the crystals, it is important to be clear with ourselves about what we wish a crystal or gemstone to do for us. The clearer we are about what we want, the easier it will be to find help to get to where we want to go. This applies to life in general and also is equally important when finding the best gemstones to assist and match our intentions.

Trust Your Instincts and Browse the Selections

No matter what your beliefs may be, if you are interested in crystals and gemstones for their energetic properties, then you are already taking steps towards a kind of organic spirituality.  We are not talking about any kind of religion or monasticism but rather getting in touch with what we fundamentally are, aside from our physical form. The mind is focused more on physicality, but awareness without thought is the essence of spirituality. This is where instincts come into play.  If your instincts are developed even somewhat, then choosing the best gemstones and crystals for you will come easily. 

 

Browse through the available selections of crystals and gemstones and get a feel for which ones visually call out to you at first. If you keep looking, you may find yourself attracted to certain stones which may not even be beautiful or attractive in appearance, but they keep catching your attention or calling to you in some way for some reason. Don’t ignore this type of internal response, but rather pay attention to it. Often you will be guided to what you need the most if you can be sensitive to your internal responses to your external environment.

Get Some Tumblestones of your Gemstones of Interest and Become Acquainted

After you have become familiarized with some different crystals and gemstones and have an idea of the ones you may wish to acquire, it may be worthwhile to get some small tumblestones of the crystals to become acquainted with them before purchasing more expensive accessories or investing in larger pieces

 

After you have the crystals in tumblestone form, you can further experiment with them to get an even clearer picture of which ones seem to benefit you most. First cleanse them energetically (see our guide here) and then go into a quiet room or out into nature and spend some time with them with your eyes closed. Gently play with them in your hands, and see if you notice any difference in how they may feel or how they may make you feel. Do some of them have a certain subtle vibration, generate an internal response in you, or make you feel a certain way?  In contrast, do others not feel very good in your hand, have a heavy energy to them or bring down your mood or emotions in any way? Open your eyes every once in a while, to discover which stone is which. Try hovering your hand over them to see if you can feel their energy signature even when not holding them.

 

Feel free to take notes about the different properties you notice and how their chemistry reacts with you. Forget what you may have read so far about them and just experience them for what they are in that moment. Do this on different days and see if there is a change in what you notice.  With some diligent practice, your sensitivity and intuition will slowly develop and it should become clear which ones feel like they benefit or suit you in some way.

 

Another way to do this, is to take them into a bathtub or shower with you (first please check if the crystals will not be damaged by being immersed in water). Often in water the properties of the gemstones and crystals seem to amplify and come alive. Water also has the same effect on a person as it cleanses and opens up their energetic system, so there is often magic when we connect with crystals and gemstones while immersed in water together.

 

The last suggested practice for this article is to select a tumblestone without looking at it and keep it in your pocket for the day. Notice how you felt that day and see if you had any consistent experience that was prevalent. Take some notes and be sure to try a day without the crystals too and take some notes…  Eventually you will start to see a pattern and learn the energetic properties for yourself and how their alchemy affects you directly as an individual. Don’t imagine, but rather just feel and experience.

The last step should be easy as all you have to do is select a gemstone accessory that has one or more of the crystals you are looking for. Be conscious however that in combination with other crystals, you may find their energy signature changes in different ways. Be receptive and open and don’t try to make the crystals fit into a preconceived idea, and you will intuitively find a friend in your crystal that will benefit you for years to come.
