New to the crystal world? We’ve got you!
It can be quite overwhelming when you first start working with crystals and trying to work out which crystals you need, these are the best beginner friendly crystals due to their versatility, accessibility, and gentle energy.
Clear Quartz
Clear Quartz is known as the "Master Healer" and can be used for so many different purposes, this crystal is so versatile. It enhances and amplifies the energy of other crystals and also taps into your inner power allowing you to be the best version of yourself. It’s a great all rounder crystal and you can’t really go wrong with Clear Quartz, so there is no worrying the energy is too strong for you or overwhelming.
Amethyst
Probably one of the most recognised crystals with its purple colouring, Amethyst is a soothing stone that helps with stress and anxiety. It's also great for enhancing spiritual awareness and intuition. And most importantly absorbs negative energy, which is why it's sometimes thought of as self-cleansing. It doesn't accumulate negative energy as quickly as some other stones, however it is good practice to still keep on top of cleansing all your crystals.
Rose Quartz
Another staple must have crystal, known as the stone of unconditional love, Rose Quartz is ideal for promoting self-love and emotional healing. It has very soft, calm energy so you won’t feel its too strong for you especially when starting out with crystal healing.
4. Citrine
I always recommend Citrine to everyone due to its positive energy which can help boost confidence and personal power. Most commonly known for bringing wealth and abundance but it can do so much more, plus is great for manifesting & attracting what you want in life.
5. Tigers Eye
This crystal is a great one for beginners as its super grounding and can help you to feel stable & secure in all aspects of life, plus it can give you the courage to move forward from things that no longer serve you. A fab comfort crystal to keep with you as a little reminder you can do this.
6. Selenite
This is always a must have for first timers, this crystal has an ability to cleanse other crystals and spaces, it’s the easiest and one of the safest ways to cleanse other crystals which is why we always include on in all of our crystal gift sets. Selenite is also a very calming and create a safe & peaceful atmosphere when placed in a room, alleviating stagnant energies.
Remember you don’t need to buy a large collection straight away, start with a few that resonate with you & build on this. Its also important to be open minded when it comes to working with crystals, if you don’t believe in it then its not for you!
Crystals need to be cleansed regularly as they can absorb energies, especially when you first buy one its important to cleanse before you use it, placing the crystal on selenite for 24 hours will do the trick.
You can also set an intention for the crystal when you first get it, this sets out what you are wanting to achieve with the help of the crystal energy. Hold it in your hand, focus on your intention, and visualize the crystal amplifying that intention, then you’re good to go!
Hopefully this has helped make the world of crystal healing a little less daunting & easier to understand!
