Crystals are more than just beautiful pieces of stones from the Earth — they are ancient tools of healing and transformation. But how do you know if a crystal is working for you? The first step is learning how to feel its energy. Let's explore more about this below.

1. Cleanse the Crystal First

Before tuning in, ensure that you have cleansed your  crystal. You can cleanse it by smudging with sage, placing it in moonlight, or using a sound like a bell or singing bowl. You can also use various mantras or chants. This clears any stuck or external energy, allowing you to connect to its true vibration.

2. Ground Yourself

Sit comfortably, take a few deep breaths, and focus on your body. Imagine roots growing from the base of your body into the earth. This technique makes you more sensitive to subtle vibrations.

3. Hold the Crystal Gently

Now hold the crystal in your  hand (usually your non-dominant hand). Close your eyes, relax, and notice what you feel. It could be warmth, tingling, pulsing, heaviness, or even a sense of calm or emotion. 

4. Scan Your Body

Move the crystal slowly near different parts of your body, especially near the heart or third eye. Pay attention to any shifts in sensation, emotion, or energy. Do this slowly so that you're able to feel the subtle differences in your body's response. Patience is the key.

5. Trust Your Intuition

Everyone experiences crystal energy differently. Some feel it physically, others emotionally or mentally. There’s no right or wrong way — your experience is personal and completely valid.

6. Journal the Experience

Write down how you felt, what thoughts came up, and any sensations. This helps you deepen your relationship with the crystal over time.

Feeling a crystal’s energy isn’t just for the “spiritually gifted.” With practice, presence, and trust, anyone can develop this subtle skill. The more you connect, the more the crystal “speaks” to your energy field.
