Crystals and gemstones are tools for focusing your thoughts on your intentions and goals. Use crystals alongside two other key tools: visualization and imagination. Intentions and positive thoughts are the products of both. Energetically match up your intentions and thoughts with crystal and gemstone allies to help you focus on major life concerns and bring into your life what you desire. Crystal intentions amplify the beneficial effects of the law of attraction.
We all basically want to attract the same things in life. There are six main areas that are most important to most people. These are:
- Friendship, Love, Relationships, and Romance
- Health and Well-Being• Money, Creativity, and Motivation
- Safety and Protection
- Happiness and Self-Confidence
- Intuition and Communication
For each of these areas of life, there are a number of crystals to choose from to assist you with your intentions. Although each life category in the sections to follow includes a listing of recommended crystals, minerals, and stones, I encourage you to use your intuition when choosing your crystals. When you’ve established your intention, incorporate the crystal into your life in one of the following ways:
- Wear the stone in a piece of jewelry
- Bring your rocks to bedand the bedroom
- Create an altar or grid of gemstones
- Place gemstones around your home and office.
