Hello, and welcome to my crystals page.

You can get crystals and stones just about anywhere these
days, I get mine at a local farmers market and my local
occult shop. Be sure when you buy one that it 'feels'
right to you. Don't buy one if when you pick it up it
doesn't feel like it is connected. And the same goes for
the store you buy it at, if you're in a store and it just
feels wrong, don't buy anything there! The stones, or
whatever else you buy, will carry that negative energy with
it and lessen the power of the stone.
Crystals are also used a lot today with healing. You can
go to a crystal healer and get your problems take care of
there. Mostly they use the crystals to absorb and draw out
the negative, destructive energies that are circulating
through your body, and replace them with good energies, by
opening up your power centers and allowing the healing,
loving energies to enter in you.
There are many ways to use these crytals for your benifit.
Many just pick the ones with the qualities they are trying
to bring into their lives and put them in a bag to carry
around with them everywhere they go.
Others choose the type of stone that is needed and wear it
as a talisman or a ring.
Be sure you find one that is reputible, and knows what they
are doing. Someone that opens up your centers and doesn't
do it correctly could leave you vulnerable to other
energies that are undesirerable.
