    Find a shop or website that sells crystals. If you are new to working with the subtle energies of crystals you'll probably find it easier to select your crystals in person.

    Let your eyes move over the crystals and select the first one which you are drawn to. It may take a while to get used to seeing when a crystal is the right one for you, but gradually you will pick it up. Sometimes you will not see a crystal which you want to take home, and other times the shop will seem to sparkle as each crystal's aura glows. Open your heart and your mind and you will find it becomes easier,and that the crystals will talk to you.

    Take your crystal home and cleanse it. It is important to cleanse your crystals regularly, but even more so when you first buy the stone as it may have been handled by many other people. Probably the easiest way to cleanse crystals is to place it in the light of the full moon, which helps to remove negative energy and recharge the crystal. If a crystal needs a very intense cleansing,bury it between the roots of a tree, but remember to mark it so you can find it later.

    After cleansing, you are free to work with your crystals as you wish.

EditTips

  • You will find your own favourite technique to choose crystals. If you want to, you can try scanning your left hand over the selection and feel which stone you are drawn to.
  • Some stones never need cleansing, including Kyanite and Carnelian.
  • If you need to cleanse a crystal quickly use a visualisation. Hold the crystal in your hand and breathe onto it, visualising the black negative energy flowing away, as golden/white energy flows into the stone.

EditWarnings

  • Only use crystals with pure intentions, and never to try to harm others with the stone's energy.
  • If there is a life-threatening emergency, call 911. Do not rely on a crystal to save a life in an emergency. They do not heal severe trauma, nor can they reliably save lives with serious wounds. Call an ambulance, and get professional medical help.
  • Crystals may vanish once they have done the work they need to in your life.
  • Some people may find it funny if you talk to crystals!
  • Never haggle over the price of a crystal.
  • Some crystals are will fade if they get too much sunlight, others are damaged by water- if you aren't sure, double check!
