• Aventurine is the stone of new beginnings. It attracts creativity and opportunities of plenty. These crystals help us stay on the pathways we create for ourselves, and the different uses of the gems help our continual progress.

Cleanse Them
Cleansing our crystals restores them to their natural state. Water will rid any negative energy stored inside of the stone. Your stone should be completely submerged under water to cleanse it, followed by patting it dry. A deep clean to the gem can be done by adding sage or lavender to the water. Be sure to protect your crystal’s energies. Protecting them is protecting yours. 

Set & Activate Your Intentions
The best use of your gems comes from first clarifying the intentions of the gem you’re using. Once you’ve figured that out, you can activate the crystal. There are a few ways to do as such; through harmonizing, directed thoughts, loud and proud. 

• Harmonizing activation comes from rolling the cleansed crystal between your palms. Close your eyes and imagine both yours and your crystal’s energies are merging together. Think about the intention of your crystal and keep it positive. 
• Directed Thoughts activation comes from sitting in front of your crystal. Close your eyes and imagine that your crystal is filling with light. The impression should be that your crystal is becoming so bright that you wouldn’t be able to look at it. Your consciousness and the stone’s energy should fuse together, sealing a pure and glowing intention. 
• Loud and Proud activation comes from holding the crystal in your left hand and sitting in natural light. Exclaim your intention aloud three times, feeling the crystal grow warmer and warmer as it absorbs your positive energy. This is similar to an affirmation. So exclaim it and claim it!

Keep Them Close
When your gems have been activated, keep them close to you. Wear it as a necklace, a bracelet, keep it as a pocket friend, or in a bag—anywhere on your person. Keeping your stone is a crucial part in bonding the energy between you two. Keeping the crystals near you help the refocus of your self-determination and milestones. 

We all need positive vibes and good energy as life will inevitably head into uncertainty. Healing crystals just may be the way to obtain inner peace. 


It’s time you find your zen.
