Frequently Asked Questions

How do I cleanse my crystals?

Cleanse your crystals by placing them in moonlight overnight, smudging with sage or palo santo, or rinsing water-safe stones under running water. Selenite and clear quartz can also cleanse other crystals simply by proximity.

What crystals are best for grounding?

Black tourmaline, smoky quartz, hematite, and obsidian are among the most powerful grounding crystals. They help anchor your energy to the earth, reduce anxiety, and create a sense of stability.

How do I use a singing bowl for meditation?

Hold the bowl in your palm, strike the rim gently with the mallet, then slowly circle the mallet around the outside rim to sustain the tone. Focus on the vibration and sound to deepen your meditative state.

What is the difference between tarot and oracle cards?

Tarot follows a fixed 78-card structure with defined suits and archetypes, while oracle cards have no set rules — each deck is unique to its creator's intention. Oracle cards are often considered more intuitive and beginner-friendly.

How do I choose the right crystal for me?

Focus on your current intention. For grounding, choose Obsidian or Hematite. For clarity and intuition, Amethyst or Clear Quartz are ideal. Trust your initial pull toward a specific stone's resonance.
