There are no right or wrong ways to use your crystals, your connection with them is personal and unique. Below are some suggestions on how to work with the energies of the crystals and useful ways to connect with them. 

Crystal meditation 

Find a quiet space to sit. 

Hold each crystal, one at a time, in your hands. 

Breathe deeply, with your eyes closed and relax, gently allowing your mind to clear. 

When you're ready, think about the properties of the crystal and how you would like to attract those qualities into your life. For example, citrine is a stone of luck and abundance, a very joyous stone. If you're working with citrine, then think about what luck and abundance looks like to you.  

If you are working with multiple crystals from our Zodiac Crystal Kits, then we recommend creating a crystal grid around you. To do this, place a crystal in front of you, behind you and one on each side. 

Breathe deeply, with your eyes closed and relax. You may choose to focus on the individual properties of the crystals, or simply sit quietly, allowing yourself to connect with the energies of the crystals as they surround you. 

Carrying your crystals 

The tumble stones from our Zodiac and Manifestation kits are very portable, which makes them perfect for slipping into a pocket, handbag, backpack or purse. Carrying your crystals on you gives you more time to better connect with their energies and also benefit from their properties while you're going about your day (or night). 

Setting Intentions 

Intention setting is a very powerful way to help you harness all the properties and energies of your crystals. When you welcome a crystal into your life, it's often because you want to attract something into your life, like love with Rose Quartz. So we recommend doing the following:

• Sit with your crystal and think about the specific thing you want to attract into your life. If your crystal is Rose Quartz and you want to attract love, focus on that. 
• Close your eyes and sit with the energy of the crystal. Focus on feeling the emotion of love. 
• When you're ready, say out loud 'I am ready to welcome love into my life'. This is an example and you can tailor your intention to best suit your needs.
• When you feel ready, open your eyes. Write down three examples of what that intention looks like to you. For example, it might be a hug from a family member, a WhatsApp from someone you care about, or being surrounded by friends. 
• Every time you use your crystal, focus on the intention you set with it and think about those examples of love to help you open yourself to welcoming that love into your life.
