Taking Care Of Your Crystals
When you start your crystal collection, you should commit to caring for them.
The better you care for your crystals, the longer they’ll last and the better they will care for you! Here are a few ways you can nurture your crystal collection.
Charging Your Crystals
Just like how we need to take care of our body and mind, crystals need to be charged to work their best. It’s not kind to use crystals without giving them a chance to re-balance. Here are some charging options.
Most gems and minerals, especially Clear Quartz, will enjoy spending an afternoon in sunlight. The natural energy from the sunlight will charge your crystals. (Keep in mind that certain stones, like Amethyst, will fade in colour if they spend too much time in direct sun.) Free free to set your crystals on a tray outside or place them in your garden. If you’re not comfortable leaving your gems outside, placing them in a sunny window is also ok.
Each month, mark your calendar for the next full moon. A full moon is a great opportunity to charge your crystal collection. All crystals enjoy bathing in the radiant light of a full moon. As with sun-charging, place your crystals outside or in a window during the full moon. Leave them there all night long. Your crystals will be so happy afterwards!
