According to practitioners, each type of crystal is said to contain specific effects and serves a different purpose. “Every crystal has its own vibrations and frequencies due to their different chemical compositions and molecular structures,” says Belicia Sun, who helms homegrown crystal brand Illa Nocte. “They harness energies central to their environment during growth think sun, moon, oceans. Crystals are powerful tools to raise our vibrations, uplift our moods with positive energies, and can guide us in our spiritual journey.”
For those who are seeking serenity and peace, Sun recommends lepidolite, amazonite, and blue lace agate. If you’re looking for a crystal on your journey towards achieving a state of zen, you won’t go wrong with black obsidian, malachite or amethyst.
