3 Crucial Ways to Charge Your Crystals

Crystals like quartz, turquoise, and obsidian, have been prized by civilizations throughout Earth’s history. Not only are these crystals stunning to look at, but many types are also believed to hold great healing power for mind, body, and soul. But while crystals have the ability to absorb and hold positive energy, they also have the ability to hold negative energy. That is why it’s critical to cleanse and charge them often. Here at Crystal Joys, we recommend a wide range of crystal charging methods, but not all of them are easy to do. We have picked out three crucial, yet easy, ways to charge your crystals at home. Best used to promote positive physical, emotional, and spiritual healing, keep your powerful crystals charged and energy filled with these three easy crystal charging methods. 

Sunlight and Moonlight Charging

Using sunlight and moonlight is an easy yet powerful way to charge your crystals. Quickly rid negative thoughts and energy from your crystals and re-charge them with healthier, more positive energy from the heavenly bodies. 

Some like to layout crystals into a gridlike structure to charge, but no matter how you lay them, it is important to place them in a location with direct sunlight or moonlight. Exposing your crystal for 24 hours to experience both sunlight and moonlight is ideal and can generate the most energy. Full moons are optimal energy sources for your crystals as they signify new beginnings, so be aware of the dates the full moon falls on to best charge your crystals.

Water Cleansing

Water is another great energy source and is easily accessible to most people. Placing your crystals in salt from the sea and allowing them to sit for several hours is an easy and effective way to recharge their energy. Even without access to sea-salt, you can effectively mimic this tactic by mixing tap water and a bit of salt. Using natural bodies of water such as rivers and streams also helps crystals to naturally re-purify but many consider the ocean the most powerful. Revitalize your crystals using natural water that removes and purifies toxic energy.

Earth Generating Chargeability

Draw the energy of the earth and soil back to your crystals in order to charge them. This natural charging technique lets your crystals reignite a connection to the earth in order to bring back powerful healing energies. This method is easy to do as long as you have access to a patch of natural earth. Using earthy soils will do just fine, as it is recommended to bury your crystal in the dirt to have a powerful cleansing and energy reset effect. Gardens are helpful but not necessary. A plant with soil that you have in your home will work just as well. 

Stay on Top of Charging Your Crystals

The positive energy crystals emit requires time and attention. In order to effectively improve different areas of your life with crystals, you will need to charge your crystals to give you the positivity and healing energy you need. With many different types of stones that provide a wide range of powerful energies, be sure to pick the right ones for you. Whether you are looking to release negative energy from your crystals or you are looking to promote healing for your body - whatever the case may be, always be prepared and recharge your crystals often.
