The Crystal Blog

I have done extensive research into crystals, and here I share scientific knowledge about their identification, so you can better understand what you are buying and avoid being misled by mislabelled or inaccurately identified stones.

I also explore the spiritual practices commonly associated with crystals today, including manifestation and intention-setting, and discuss why I now do not recommend using crystals for these purposes (like I used to unfortunately). Rather than attributing supernatural power to crystals or using them to try to influence outcomes, I believe it is important to understand what crystals are, what they can and cannot do, and how we can appreciate them without engaging in practices that may be spiritually harmful.
