General information on crystals:

The word crystal stems from the Greek language and stands for 'ice'.
It was the belief that such a stone was only water frozen into this solid form, now beyond melting.
This early idea was kept alive as late as the 18th century.
Even then some scientists maintained clear rock crystal being fossilized ice!

Precious stones have been on the trading markets of the word for more than 5000 years now. The New Millenium has shown an increasing interest in Spirituality. With this the interest in crystals, gem stones, precious stones and also particularily the stones' meanings or rather their usages and more precisely their energy and powers, has grown essentially as well.

Using the power of crystals can mean a way for empowerment in your personal lives.
Don't miss out!
Empower yourselves now!

How to store & keep crystals:

Usually crystals don't require more than a bit of dusting.

To charge a crystal with some talismanic energy it helps to carry the stone on or with you,
when you engage in the activity for which it was bought.

It will be your personal choice whether to display crystals in a bowl, in a jewellery box
or keep them constantly with you either as jewellery on you or in a silk pouch,
for you to take out and handle whenever required, to use their energy.

How to purify crystals used as talismans:

Crystals are believed to store certain healing energy. But they also soak up energy from their environment and this energy might be negative one. Therefore it's a good idea to purify your crystals.

You can use Air, Earth, Fire or Water for this purification process.

By creating your own 'cleansing stones' (recrystalized halite/pure rock salt), you will have your own in-house cure for this task. Simply scatter around any stone that needs purifying.
