Feng Shui consultants quite often suggest crystals as part of their practice. These can be found in many gift stores.. While the use of crystals sometimes are not seen as part of traditional Feng Shui many people do enjoy collecting and displaying crystals.
The crystal that you choose is a personal decision and your choice should be made according to the planned purpose of your crystal and where in the home you will place it,
Crystals are natural energy generators; Crystal attracts and holds energy as well as transmitting energy outwards. Imagine how many people have held onto a crystal before you take it home. Each person that holds a crystal leaves a residue of their energy on its surface. Sometimes when you pick up a crystal it can actually feel as if it has a coating on it. Some say this is an accumulation of energy built up on the surface. You should remove the residue of energy when you bring it to your home. Also as it sits in that special place in your home or office it will also start to collect energy that regularly needs to be cleansed. To make sure that it does not hold any negative energy and keeps working properly, as well as this, cleaning will keep it sparkling as it should;
if your crystal has dust on it you can rinse it in luke warm salt water. Let it air dry completely in a sunny spot before putting it back on display.
The full moon can be a powerful force, the night before of the next full moon set out your crystals and let the moon do the work and empower them. This is good for crystals that might be full of negative energy.
When your larger crystals have been cleaned any jewellery you have worn at times of stress or sadness can be placed on the clean crystal and left for a day or two.
