Crystal Shapes & Meanings

Shapes

Some believe the way a stone is cut or shaped is purely aesthetic and it is totally fine to not get caught up in the details if you don't want to or are not ready to just yet.

But if you are looking to expand your knowledge on shapes, the structure of a crystal doesn’t change the type of energy it emits, the shape DOES affect the way you receive said energy.

Blog about this coming soon...

Meanings

Everything in the natural world emits energy. This can be tangible in the way that gravity works, electrical currents, water, wind and sun can be felt.

Crystals are the same! Each crystal emits a certain energy and our body will be affected in positive ways from working with crystals.

If you want to learn more about the meanings, you can opt to add our crystal meaning cards to your order. Just use the check box in your cart and we will include them for free!
