Which Crystal? 5 Ways to Pick the Perfect Crystal
Want to try working with crystals but not sure which one to choose? Here are 5 methods for selecting crystals
Visual Appeal
Sometimes one just seems to catch your attention or shine a little brighter. This crystal is often just the one you need right then.
Feeling
Ever pick up a crystal and it just feels right in your hand? Maybe it makes you feel so relaxed…or perhaps it invigorates you! Maybe it’s just the right shape to fit so perfectly in your hand. Pay attention, this often signals that it’s the right crystal for you right now.
Dowsing
You can dowse with a pendulum to pick a crystal. Hold the pendulum over crystals, slowly move over them, and watch for an indication. Once you find that your pendulum is picking up on something, get more specific by spreading out the few it was over when it moved and testing each one.
Intention
If you have a particular purpose for why you’d like to work with a crystal (stress, protection, anxiety, relaxation, etc) then you can select a crystal that would support that intention. Rose quartz, for example, encourages self-love.
Chakras
You can identify which chakra deals with whatever you want to work on and select a crystal that corresponds with that chakra. For example, if you’d like express yourself more clearly, that’s the throat chakra and blue quartz corresponds to this chakra.
Different people like to pick their crystals in different ways. Try different methods and see which works for you! If you’d like to get started but want a bit of help to begin, I invite you to take a look at my intention kits and bracelets. The intention kits include specifically selected crystals for each intention and come with information about each one along with directions for something you can do with them. The Intention Bracelets are available in chakra support or I can make one specifically for whatever intention that you may have.
