We've gathered some of the most common types of crystals for starters. Each of the crystal addresses a specific need.
1. Amethyst
This is one of the most popular crystal. It is gorgeous and versatile, the purple-hued crystal’s powers supposedly range from preventing anxiety to securing a good night’s sleep. Since amethyst targets the crown chakra (located at the very top of your head, and aligned with the mind), the crystal functions to bring a sense of physical and emotional peacefulness. Its specific healing includes easing headaches and migraines, helping with pain relief, and strengthening intuition. Many believe that placing an amethyst geode by your bed at night will calm your mind and bring pleasant dreams.
2. Rose Quartz
This pinkish crystal is wonderful to have when declaring love and new relationships. If you’re stuck on an emotional rollercoaster, the rose quartz helps with reconciliation and empathy. Another benefit? It is said to bring about a sense of inner peace.
3. Black Tourmaline
The absorptive crystal is said to be able to soak up all the negative energies that come your way, getting rid of toxicity. Associated with the root chakra, enthusiasts of black tourmaline say that it can ease you when life becomes overwhelming.
4. Selenite
Feeling constantly exhausted? It may be time for an aura cleansing. Selenite is the best crystal for restoring the auric field around us. Selenite supposedly clears out the day’s accumulated bad vibes and embraces you in a more peaceful flow of energy. Use selenite like a scanning device around your body to help draw out all the energetic obstacles that stand in the way of reaching inner peacefulness. FYI: selenite dissolves in water, so maintain possession of the geode in a dry place.
5. Citrine
Citrine is believed to help who are feeling stuck. For an instant bombshell of confidence, I suggest placing citrine on your belly while resting. The crystal will purportedly relax the knotted energy within and restore good vibes.
6. Jade
We could all like to have some more luck in our lives, which is why jade is so popular. Jade is said to bring wealth and prosperity in the material extent and in the social sphere. Wearing jade on your left hand or wrist is believed to bring blessings from the universe. Additionally, jade rings are quite classy, too.
7. Clear Quartz
Click the “reboot” button in your life with having clear quartz, a multipurpose necessity for any crystal collection. It’s been known as a “master” crystal, clear quartz is all about fading out the inner noise and clarifying your goals in life. This popular geode purportedly has all-purpose healing abilities. Keep your clear quartz by the window to soak up the solar energy, which will transfer to you and most likely will shine away the bad.
8. Rhodochrosite
How can you fix a broken heart? According to those who believe in crystal healing, say that rhodochrosite is the stone that's practically made for breakup recovery. You can use the crystal —which stimulates the heart chakra—while meditating to boost self-love and confidence. Infusing a positive outlook, the pink crystal may just prepare you for the next romantic adventure.
9. Lapis Lazuli
Lapis lazuli is doubtlessly the most effective crystal to keep at your work desk. The blue crystal contributes to a free flow of sharing ideas amongst colleagues. In addition, it encourages clarity and directness, which is specifically helpful during Mercury retrograde (an astrological transit that occurs three times a year) leading to cause communication meltdowns.
10. Chrysocolla
You can think of chrysocolla as an all-in-one crystal because it heals all of the chakras (the root, sacral, solar plexus, heart, throat, and third eye chakras). With doing so, chrysocolla helps your body pay attention to its psychic sensibilities. While just sitting around (or meditating), place chrysocolla on any of your chakras, or the energy points in your body, to re-activate them to perform to their best ability.
