Every crystal carries with it unique energy that gives it power and light. Some crystals are encouraging, some calming and others empowering. Finding a crystal that speaks to you is half the fun of crystal use. The other half of the fun — OK, besides turning the crystals into beautiful jewelry (if you’re me) — is setting an intention with your crystal.
I see an intention as a simple phrase or idea that can help bond your crystal to you. Repeating this simple phrase to your stone is a way of directing the crystal’s energy to help you make major positive changes in the way you view the world. It may sound corny, but whisper the intention to your crystal every morning to encourage the energy to work in that area of your life.
You may already have an intention in mind when you buy a crystal, but if not, here a few you could experiment with. Change the wording and the specifics to make them your own. I’ll be cheering you on as always on your self-growth and self-love journey, my friends.
“May I live more intentionally and less out of habit.”
“I freely give up what is no longer serving me to make space for what inspires me.”
“I am responsible for my own happiness. I choose to create my own joy now and always.”
“My dream was planted in my heart for a reason, and I have the power to achieve it.”
“This trial will pass, and I have the strength to overcome it.”
“I am responsible for how I act, no matter how I feel.”
