How to Gain Spiritual Growth with Crystals

No matter our spiritual beliefs, we all want to evolve and grow. Since the beginning of time, people have tapped into the supernatural powers of crystals to help them achieve spiritual evolution. Forged deep beneath the earth, crystals have their own unique vibrating molecular frequency. Today we can harness these energies to gain enlightenment and rise above the physical world through consciousness to live an extraordinary life. 

Connecting to Spirit

We have seven energy centers in our bodies (Root chakra, Sacral chakra, Solar Plexus Chakra, Heart Chakra, Throat Chakra, Third eye chakra, and the Crown Chakra). These are the portals through which we transmit energy and connect with the Divine. Our chakras must be open to receive guidance from above, and the Crown Chakra is our highest energy center that helps us connect to the Divine and awaken our highest self. Clear quartz helps to unblock the crown chakra and can help us keep a clear mind. Keeping a clear quartz crystal under a pillow can keep the crown chakra open and our minds clear. Amethyst is another powerful gem that absorbs stress and anxiety, allowing our highest self to emerge in perfect union with the Divine. Placing a glistening purple amethyst crystal in your lounge will not only be a visual reminder that we are never alone, but its high vibrational frequency will keep the crown chakra clear and functioning optimally.

Self-Love and Acceptance

Everything consists of vibrational energy. Crystals all vibrate at different frequencies, and the energy from crystals can impact us in many positive ways. Loving and accepting ourselves is a major part of our spiritual growth. When we love ourselves, we can live a life that welcomes miracles because we know we are worthy of love, joy, and all we desire. The heart chakra must be clear to love ourselves fully, and Rose Quartz is the ultimate crystal for beckoning in unconditional loving vibes. Wearing a Rose Quartz pendant necklace is a great way to let its loving vibrations seep in through the skin directly into the heart chakra all day long, reminding us how loved and accepted we are.

Overcoming Fear

Fear can stop us from elevating into our highest selves. It can stop us from making the most of life’s opportunities, finding love, or growing spiritually. If we want to live according to our highest consciousness, we must let go of fear. The Third Eye Chakra (just between the eyebrows) may need some work if we are struggling with fear. If it’s blocked, our perception of reality is blurred, meaning we can fall prey to panic and anxiety. A black tourmaline crystal can help soothe these feelings away in these moments. Keeping a black tourmaline crystal on your person and holding it as a worry stone can keep you grounded and reconnect you to the Divine, squashing any fear and worries and allowing your perspective of reality to align with the truth.

Growing in Our Connection to Others

A fulfilling and joy-filled life is full of meaningful connections not only to the Divine but to others. Working on our relationships with our nearest and nearest makes life more beautiful, and we continue our spiritual growth. Two reasons why connecting with others may be complicated-

  1. Our ego and issues can stop us from connecting with them as we should 
  2. Other people’s negative energy can interfere with ours. 

Lapis Lazuli is a powerful crystal to help us build strong friendships. Its vibrational frequencies help us be humble and empathize with how others might feel. Giving a gift of lapis lazuli to a cherished friend can improve your communication by unblocking the throat chakra and strengthening your bond. Peridot is another excellent option, cleansing negative energy from relationships and can keep jealousy and anger at bay. This is the ideal crystal to keep in your kitchen or wherever you spend time with people.

Staying connected to Spirit is vital for our spiritual growth. We can use crystals to unblock the crown chakra to help us commune with those higher powers to grow into our highest beings. We can use the the energies of crystals such as Rose Quartz, for example to connect to love. We can transmute the high vibration electromagnetic frequencies of crystals to dispel fear and panic by holding crystals such as black tourmaline as worry stones or placing some in our bathwater. From wearing crystals as jewelry to keeping them around the home or holding them during meditation, we also can elevate our relationships with others to evolve and grow spiritually into our highest selves.
