Protection crystals provide us with a protective barrier from unwanted energies and influences, such as those created by other people’s stress or emotional distress, curses and spells cast against us and malevolent spirits or spirit attachments.
Black Tourmaline is one of the best-known protection crystals, providing a great way to purify and safeguard your aura. When combined with Apache Tear and Clear Quartz it becomes even more effective at clearing and safeguarding the space surrounding you.
Black Tourmaline
Black tourmaline is one of the most psychically and energetically protective crystals you can own, acting like a buffer to repel negative energy that might attempt to enter and turn it into positive, supportive energies that keep you protected and balanced.
Black tourmaline can also help reduce electromagnetic radiation from electronic devices in your home, acting as an electromagnetic radiation shield and protecting both you and your family from potentially harmful electromagnetic frequencies. By placing pieces of black tourmaline near such devices, you can shield both yourself and your loved ones from potentially dangerous frequencies.
Emotionally, this crystal can aid emotional healing and release negative feelings such as fear, anger, stress anxiety and depression. Additionally, it may assist with family conflicts by keeping one grounded and level-headed during heated arguments.
This stone resonates with both the root chakra and earth star chakra to provide grounding and balance, increasing instinctual intuition while connecting you with your spiritual path more clearly. Resonating with Capricorn zodiac sign, it encourages taking control of life while creating something solid and long-term.
Citrine
Citrine is often known as the “stone of abundance”, believed to attract wealth, prosperity and success while simultaneously encouraging joy, confidence and positive energy.
Citrine resonates with both the Solar Plexus and Third Eye chakras to bring balance. It is said to enhance clarity of thought, personal will and creativity while simultaneously improving self-esteem and manifesting desires.
Citrine can help heal hurt feelings and promote healthier awareness among others, and placed under your pillow can even reduce nightmares for more restful sleeping.
Physically, Citrine is thought to boost energy and stamina, increase concentration and wisdom, as well as improve skin health. It has also been known to soothe menstrual cramps, balance hormones and increase libido. Furthermore, Citrine may enhance metabolism and balance the thyroid.
Obsidian
When people inquire about protective crystals, I often recommend obsidian. This smoky black stone has the power to absorb and repel negative energy as well as clear any emotional or energetic blockages that might exist in an individual or collective system. Obsidian works especially well when combined with moldavite or lapis lazuli for spiritual development and healing purposes.
This fascinating rock is an intriguing volcanic glass formation created when silica-rich magma cools too quickly for mineral crystals to form. Common in the Southwest United States and bearing stunning swirls of color caused by trace elements, it makes an unforgettable sight!
Obsidian crystal is said to help balance the solar plexus chakra, which governs willpower and self-confidence. Furthermore, obsidian may assist you in finding your true path in life while providing assistance on your journey of personal development. Obsidian should be cleansed and recharged regularly in order to maximize its power.
Selenite
Selenite is a crystal that has long been thought to strengthen psychic awareness, intuition and clairvoyance. Additionally, it is said to clear away energy blockages within our auras and chakras for healthier flows of energy in both areas. Healers commonly keep selenite wands or towers handy during healing sessions.
Selenite, like black tourmaline, is believed to help protect against evil spirits and toxic energies, as well as cleanse and purify an area, including its inhabitants and objects within it.
Hanging a selenite stick or wand at your front door is an effective way to repel negative energies before they enter, especially after a stressful day. Additionally, keeping one by your bed may help you sleep soundly at night and boost positive thinking while simultaneously adding an aesthetic design element to your living space. These crystals have long been associated with encouraging positive attitudes, luck and joy! Alternatively, placing one as part of an elegant coffee table arrangement or centerpiece tower can protect and purify its energy while adding beautiful design features as part of its energy purifying capabilities!
