Hello friends!
On the last blog, we talked about what to do after you've picked your first crystal and what to do from there. But what if you were just finding the powers of crystals and you want to go pick out your first crystal, but they're all so pretty, what do you do?
You have a couple different options.
- You can go to the store and just grab whatever looks nice.
- You can go to Google and search for things that you are needing (example: you have a very stressful or chaotic life - you go to Google search “what crystals can help me with stress?” Or you have had some trauma … you go to Google “what crystals can help me with trauma?”) And you can start your collection of crystals with things that you need …
- Simply start with the basics – I will go over what I think everyone should have in their collection.
- Pick a crystal from each chakra color – This will not be a complete list, just a starting point.
Today we are going to discuss the last 2 options listed above. There is no right and wrong way to choose which crystals you will start with. You can start with either list, or a couple from each, or simply start with the ones that you feel drawn to, those are likely ones you need in your auric field anyway. 😊
