Collecting Crystals
Crystals, I believe, pick us as much as we pick them. Somemay only be here for a short time to fulfill a specific purpose. Others you may put to good use before donating to charity. Others may become a part of your life as a result of your attraction your desire to own them. Choosing crystals for any of these reasons is a smart move.
Two crystals with specific power helping you through some things will be referred to as a collection. Each one should be chosen with care, based on your instincts and knowledge of what works for you. Place it in your house as per the change you need in energy – bedrooms, baths, study, or your workplace. Build up a collection, if you wish, over the years. But remember, just because you’re interested in crystals doesn’t mean they have to take up all of your time and space.
Some points to be considered before you start collecting crystals:
1. Do you have any crystals in your possession? If so, make a list.
2. How well-versed are you with the properties of the crystals you own? Do you know their names? If not, then keep on reading, and in Chapters 5 & 6, we’ll discuss the crystals and their characteristics in detail.
3. The 10 “workhorse” crystals are an excellent place to start if you wish to expand your collection. Considering how versatile these gems are, every new player should have access to them. There’s a lot more to learn about these gems over here.

5. Once you’ve determined your crystals, check to decide whether or not you lack any of the 10 crystal workhorses. Starting your collection by filling in any holes in your inventory will be a fantastic way to get the ball rolling.
6. Where to shop for crystals? There are several places and online websites that assist you in buying the crystals you need. Though it’s preferable to purchase crystals in person so that one can hold the crystal to feel its vibes. There is nothing wrong with buying online, too; just that thorough cleansing is needed.
7. Crystals may be purchased at retail in many cities and villages. Some examples of these businesses are mystical bookshops, crystal boutiques, and new age shops. If the staff is knowledgeable, most stores will allow you to handle the stones before you buy.
8. For crystal shopping, go no further than one of the many roadside minerals or gem shows. Entrance fees may apply, and many events only happen a few times each year in your region, so prepare ahead of time if you can. For the most part, event sellers know a lot about the crystals and will let you touch them before buying anything from them.
9. You can find some big-name retailers and auction or craft sites like SoulWellnessStore.com. Look at the seller’s reviews before making a purchase to ensure that they are a trustworthy company.

Some vendors have started trademarking crystals in the last few years to increase their sales. There is usually a much less expensive generic crystal with the same characteristics for every branded crystal. This works similarly to brand-name medicines and generics. Except for pricing, there is no distinction between branded and nonbranded crystals. When crystals are branded, it is usually because they come from a specific location on land that belongs to the individuals who are branding them. However, the location has little to no effect on the crystal’s properties.

Patterns, Colors & Vibes- All you need to pick'em!
Previously, I discussed the top three among the ten crystal workhorses. That does not imply that you must purchase the crystals in question. The crystals in chapter # might help you with specific problems or ideas. There are alternative methods for locating crystals that are suitable for you, as well. You should select your crystals with the Vibes you get, colors, or crystal system. The 3 easy and correct ways to initiate your collection.
Earlier, I discussed crystal systems. Crystals are classified into crystal systems based on their inner structure. These crystal systems possess specific properties, like:
- Hexagonal Crystals: Manifests
- Isometric Crystals: Amplifies Energy
- Monoclinic: Protection
- Orthorhombic Crystals: Cleanse, Unblock, Release.
- Tetragonal Crystals: Attracts
- Triclinic Crystals: Wards off Negativity.
- Trigonal Crystals: Balances & re-energizes
- Amorphous Crystals: different properties.
Color’s significance goes well beyond personal taste. Vibrational energies corresponding to different colors have therapeutic effects. In the following chapter, we’ll talk about color’s distinct characteristics. However, you may pick crystals for specific problems by choosing a crystal from the crystal system that has the qualities you want it to show combined with the therapeutic principles of the hue. Each crystal has a unique vibrational frequency that helps to eliminate blockages and repel bad energy, no matter how eye-catching the hues or the alien patterns are.
Once you are clear about the basics of crystals, you must go with your gut. Hold them. Feel them. Welcome the vibes emitted by the crystal. What do you sense – Calmness? Uneasiness? Or any other emotional or physical changes? Only after this examination will I pay for the crystal.
What happens if you don’t do it? That’s not to suggest that you should never use that crystal again if you have a terrible experience with it. With time, the gems that speak to you will change. Do not ignore feelings of attraction you have toward crystals other than their appearance; if a crystal calls to you, you can rest assured it is a crystal choosing you.
