What crystals would you pick for a beginner? What would you take into consideration?
Yesterday I went to a psychic fair (yay!) and one of my friends was unable to come. She was hoping to buy some crystals, but didn't really know where to start. She has some understanding of chakras and reiki and thought that some thing along those lines would be a good place to start. I agreed and said I'd be happy to pick some for her. She gave me a budget and off I went.
- I made sure to pick one for each chakra, with options (green and pink for heart etc)
- I picked nothing too obscure, good solid well known rocks with lots of info (like amethyst and quartz, rather than ruby zoisite)
- I didn't just pick from the tumbled boxes, I ended up with a few bigger touch stones off the table display
- I made sure I got the little cards for each rock so she had more starting information
- I picked every stone with her in mind, for the type of stone, and her individual crystals
- I avoided man made stones, I think you should start natural so your e ready for the higher frequencies etc of synthetic stones, and avoided dyes
- I wrote up some care instructions for her, re cleansing, and also about which of her stones should avoid direct sunlight etc
So my final crystals were:
Black Tourmaline
Mookaite Jasper (very red one)
Carnelian
Golden Calcite
Aventurine
Rose Quartz
Blue Calcite
Lapis Lazuli
Amethyst
Clear Quartz
Tossed in some incense too!
