Magical Correspondences of Crystals

Note: This post contains potentially problematic practices or language, cultural appropriation, or misinformation. I have been working diligently to decolonize my practice, for which you can learn more about in my article Decolonizing Witchcraft: Racism, Whitewashing, and Cultural Appropriation in Witchcraft and How to Decolonize Your Practice. I believe in documenting my journey in witchcraft and that my readers can learn from my mistakes, so the posts will remain as a learning opportunity.

Crystals and stones each contain an energy all their own. Their energy can be used for youself or to enhance your magic. To enhance your magic, use a crystal whose magical properties match your magical intent. Remember, you need to cleanse, charge (in moon- or sunlight), and empower your crystals before using.
