Humans have harnessed the power of crystal energy for thousands of years. Almost anywhere you go on the globe, there will be a culture that recognized the power of crystals.
Ancient Romans used them for protection in battle. Egyptians used quartz to slow the aging process. And we can’t forget the Greeks — language is tricky, but many think the word crystal comes from the Greek word for ice.
Still, Western culture can sometimes forget that crystals have unique abilities to help reset your energy.
Crystals aren’t just useful for calming your psyche, they can also be the perfect tool for creating a positive energy in your home. Read on to find out how!
1. Purify the Air Around You
Have you ever walked into a room and immediately sensed that something about its energy was off? Even those who aren’t super in tune with energy vibrations can tell when a room is tense.
While crystals can’t remove physical contaminants like smoke or dust from the air, they can remove negative energy. Using the correct crystals — like amethyst or clear quartz in this case — can help to absorb unwelcome energy in your environment.
You’ll notice a lighter, more positive atmosphere once the crystal energy has done its work.
2. Create a Crystal Grid
A crystal grid amplifies the power of a single crystal by uniting the energies of the sacred stones with your intentions. The pattern of the grid helps to focus what you want to see.
When people think of crystal grids, they usually picture all of the stones grouped closely together in a certain space. However, you can change the grid to suit your purposes. In this case, you would spread the grid out to cover your entire home.
To do so, first focus on your intentions. What do you want to achieve with this crystal grid? Protection? Cleansing?
After you have your intention in mind, place crystals in the four main corners of your home. You can also use a crystal point in the center if you want to really amplify your message.
3. Use Crystal Energy to Protect Your Home
To prevent having to cleanse rooms of negative energy constantly, you can also use crystal energy to protect your home. This way, you only bring the energy that you want into your safe space.
There are two stones you should definitely have if you want to use crystals to protect your home: black tourmaline and selenite. The two crystals have different energies that can be used individually or combined.
Black tourmaline will help protect against bad energy, along with clearing out energy blockages already present in your home. Selenite, on the other hand, brings a protective and calming energy to the space.
If you use the two together, your home will be noticeably more relaxed.
4. Focus on Positive Intentions
Keeping your positive intentions at the forefront of your mind will help to attract more good things into your life. Crystals can help you to focus and amplify these intentions, improving your well-being!
A Quartz point crystal is excellent for this since it will work no matter what your needs are.
First, hold your crystal and envision your intentions. This is like ‘programming’ your crystal to make sure it works the way you want it to.
Then write down your intentions on a piece of paper, fold it, and place the crystal on top. Keep it somewhere special and visit it every day for the crystal to work.
5. Relieve Stress With Kyanite
Kyanite is usually worn, but can also be placed on display with quartz to spread healing energy throughout your home.
Unlike many other crystals, kyanite doesn’t retain negative energy. It’s often said that it’s one of the few crystals that never needs to be cleaned, but depending on how hard the crystal is working, you may want to clean it from time to time anyway.
Kyanite crystal energy helps to promote clear thought and bring tranquility. The different colors have various uses with your chakras as well.
6. Prevent Nightmares
At times our subconscious can dredge up negativity that we didn’t even realize we were carrying with us. More often than not, that repressed negative energy appears when we sleep. Either we have issues sleeping, or we’re plagued with nightmares when we do.
To help keep your bedroom a sanctuary free of stress, use a violet crystal like violet fluorite or amethyst.
Violet crystals protect your mind during sleep by pulling double duty. They protect you from negative energy and create a safe space for your mind to be creative as you sleep.
Slip a crystal under your pillow before you sleep and enjoy a restful night!
7. Increase Home Office Productivity
Crystals don’t just attract positive energy and block the negative. They can also help to bring wealth and productive energy into your space.
If you have a home office (or if you just do a lot of work from home), try keeping citrine in your workspace. Citrine attracts wealth and abundance. Like kyanite, it doesn’t soak up negative energy, so you won’t have to worry about constantly cleaning it.
To get the most from your crystal, place it on top of an object like a business card on your desk. If possible, try to place it in an area with a lot of sunlight. Citrine crystals soak up solar energy, and sunlight will help to make their power even more intense.
Conclusion
However you choose to use your crystals, don’t forget to clean them periodically. Cleaning your crystals resets them and helps to negate any of the negative energy they may have absorbed.
It’s especially important to cleanse crystals when you move, just to make sure that they work as well as possible in your new home. You don’t want to accidentally bring energy you were trying to escape.
