If you guys know anything about us, it's that we are all about displaying your crystals throughout your spaces. While it's great to have many different crystals, it is equally important not to clutter them. Cluttering your crystals create a mix of energies which either creates a not so great environment or just blocks the energies all in all.
Here are a few tips when using crystals as decor at home:
1. Choose Crystals Based on Desired Energy
Each crystal has its own unique properties. Select them based on the specific energy or outcome you're aiming to create in a particular area of your home:
- Amethyst: Promotes calmness and spiritual growth, often placed in bedrooms for restful sleep and in meditation spaces.
- Rose Quartz: Known for fostering love, compassion, and harmony, it’s great for living rooms or bedrooms, encouraging peaceful relationships.
- Clear Quartz: Amplifies energy and intentions. It can be placed anywhere to clear and enhance the energy of the space.
- Citrine: Often associated with abundance and prosperity, it’s ideal for the Wealth area (southeast corner of your home) or the Success area (south).
- Black Tourmaline: Provides protection and helps absorb negative energy, often placed at entryways or in corners to shield the home.
2. Activate Crystals in the Right Bagua Areas
The Bagua map is a tool in Feng Shui that divides your home into areas that correspond to different life aspects (e.g., wealth, career, love, etc.). Place crystals in the areas that relate to your goals:
- Wealth/Abundance (Southeast): Place Citrine or Pyrite here to attract prosperity.
- Love/Relationships (Southwest): Use Rose Quartz to enhance harmony and love.
- Health (Center): Place Clear Quartz or Green Aventurine to boost vitality.
- Career (North): Use Black Obsidian or Hematite to ground and support career advancement.
3. Cleansing and Charging Your Crystals
To ensure your crystals remain effective, they need to be cleansed regularly to remove any negative energy they’ve absorbed:
- Smudging: Pass the crystal through sage or palo santo smoke.
- Water: Rinse the crystal in running water (ensure the crystal is water-safe).
- Sunlight/Moonlight: Leave them in direct sunlight or moonlight to recharge, especially during the full moon.
4. Use Crystals for Clarity and Focus
Place clear crystals like Clear Quartz on your desk or work area to enhance mental clarity, focus, and decision-making skills.
5. Crystal Clusters for Living Areas
Place crystal clusters, such as Amethyst or Clear Quartz, in areas of your home where the energy can benefit from balance and harmony (like the center of the living room). These help to disperse energy evenly and positively throughout the space.
6. Consider Crystal Shapes and Size
- Tumbled Stones: Small and easy to place anywhere (especially good for personal spaces like your bedroom).
- Clusters: Larger pieces like Amethyst clusters are great for living rooms and larger spaces, offering both beauty and energy enhancement.
- Geodes: For spaces that need additional protection or energy cleansing, geodes (e.g., Amethyst geodes) are ideal.
7. Display Crystals with Intention
When placing crystals in your home, focus on the intention behind their placement. This mindfulness aligns the crystal’s energy with your personal goals, enhancing the Feng Shui of the space.
8. Avoid Overcrowding
Less is more when it comes to crystal placement. Too many crystals in one area can create scattered energy. Focus on a few key crystals for specific intentions, and allow space for the energy to flow naturally.
Incorporating crystals into your Feng Shui practice can help create a harmonious and supportive environment that aligns with your goals and intentions!
