Now that you have your crystal, how do you use it? First, when you receive your new crystal, it is important to align your energies.
You do this by activating it. Activating your crystal enables it to hold a pattern of energy long enough and strongly enough for your desire or goal to manifest. This also helps you powerfully tap into the higher crystal frequencies. To read more about how crystals work, here is my post 4 Amazing Crystal Facts that will Change Your Life.
Activate your crystals in 4 simple steps:
- First, when you buy your crystal, smudge it (and yourself) to clear the energy. You can learn all about smudging your crystals here.
- Take it outside into the moonlight and hold it in your hand applying pressure. As you’re holding it, visualize what your intention is for this crystal and imagine you are combining your energy with its energy and connect with it – I talk a little more about using it to manifest in a sec.
- Further align YOUR energy with its energy by focusing on it until it gets warm, a minute or two will do the trick.
- Then thank it for coming to you because you both will create great things together!!
And that’s it! Very simple but VERY important.
Whenever you want to manifest ANYTHING take your crystal into your hand and visualize your desire from beginning to end.
So for example, if you want to lose weight or make more money, watch it come into fruition in your mind’s eye and crystallize it to the finest detail. The more you believe in this the more energy and power you literally give it. (Read about your powerful energy body here). The speed your goal will come to you is determined by your belief, in other words trust that you are a creator and allow the universe bring forth what you want to put in your world.
Tip #1: You must believe in the universe in order to line up with the universe; you must believe to receive. It is Law. If you are not believing then you will unintentionally create reasons to *not believe.
Tip #2: It is important to only ask the universe once for your desire, otherwise, if you ask more than once you’re introducing doubt.
Doubt is a very low vibration that will block you from receiving. So, trust you’ve been heard and watch for opportunities to take easy action wherever you go.
Depending on what type of crystal you have will determine where you should ideally keep it.
If you are looking for energetic protection (psychic attacks/energy vampires) then carrying a Black Tourmaline will help ward off negative low vibe energies.

Amethyst is really good for bringing a sense of calm, managing anger, and 3rd Eye opening. It is best kept in your bedrooom.

If you want to strengthen your manifestation, Clear Quartz amplifies whatever energy or intent is programmed into it, so it’s good to pair with your main crystal. Clear quartz also continues to broadcast the programmed energy throughout the world which accelerates the rate of which your goal manifests into your life. A little note, Clear Quartz is not a good crystal to keep in your bedroom as its high vibration may keep you awake at night.

Lastly, reprogram and set new goals as you receive them and don’t forget to charge your crystals every once in a while with the power of the moon.
Crystals work hard to balance all the energies they come in contact with so charging keeps them at full strength.
When you charge a crystal its the same concept as solar powered lights. When you set your crystals out in the sunlight or moonlight they get solar and/or lunar charged just like a battery would get recharged when you plug it in. Here is a great article on how to charge your crystals from Crystal Visions.
Crystal Vaults is another ultimate online crystal encyclopedia that explains how else you can use crystals for physical, mental, spiritual healing, it is my number one go-to when learning new things about crystal energy.
I hope this gives you a good head start on what to do with your crystals once you have them. They are living beings and can become your companion and talisman if you allow them to.
