“Which Crystal Should I Use?”

If you’ve ever held a crystal in your hand and wondered if it’s “the right one,” you’re not alone. One of the most common questions I get asked, by total beginners and seasoned spiritual seekers alike, is this:

“Which crystal should I use for [insert intention here]?”

Whether it’s love, abundance, protection, healing, or clarity, this question comes up more than any other.

And honestly? It makes perfect sense.

Crystals aren’t just pretty; they’re powerful energetic tools. But with hundreds of different types, it’s no wonder people feel overwhelmed when they’re starting out. So let’s unpack this question together, and I’ll share how you can confidently choose the right crystal for you.

The Truth? There’s No One-Size-Fits-All Answer

Yes, certain crystals have well-known energetic properties. For example:
💗 Rose Quartz is loved for self-love and emotional healing.
💰 Citrine is the go-to for abundance and manifestation.
🛡️ Black Tourmaline is a favourite for grounding and protection.

But here’s the twist: your energy is unique. And the crystal that’s “right” for you might be completely different to someone else’s, even if your intentions are the same.

3 Ways to Choose the Right Crystal

1. Follow Your Intuition
   Ever found yourself drawn to a crystal without knowing why? That’s your intuition guiding you. Trust that inner pull, it’s often spot on.

2. Choose by Intention
   If you have a specific goal in mind, you can absolutely start there. For example, if you’re manifesting money, crystals like Pyrite, Green Aventurine, or Citrine are powerful allies.

3. Work With Energy Guidance
   Sometimes it’s helpful to use tools like pendulums, oracle cards, or even birth charts to help you choose crystals aligned to your current energetic needs.

How to Use Your Crystals Once You’ve Chosen Them

Once you've chosen your crystal, don’t just pop it on your shelf and forget about it.
Try one of these simple practices:
✨ Carry it in your pocket or bra for on-the-go support.
🕯️ Meditate with it, holding it in your hand or placing it on a chakra.
🌿 Create a ritual or altar where you can connect with it daily.

And don’t forget to cleanse and charge it regularly, your crystal picks up energy just like you do!
