There are many reasons for crystals breaking, so it’s best to use your discernment when trying to understand. The most logical answer is that your crystal was a delicate stone, low on the Mohs hardness scale. The lower on the scale, the more likely the crystal is to chip, break, and even crumble apart.
That said, you can chat with a crystal psychic to understand why your stone cracked. They’ll be able to tap into the crystal’s energy and give you a clear answer. This can help you better protect yourself in the future if someone sends you negative energy.
It also means there are spiritual beliefs as to why crystals break. Some believe that when crystals absorb too much negative energy, they crack themselves open to release it. In this case, it’s best to bury the crystal in the earth so it can return to its natural state.
Another reason could be that your work with the crystal is complete. When a stone breaks, it can symbolize success in working through what is needed. It’s usually a sign that you no longer need the stone, so you can look at it as congratulations from the crystal itself.
