| WHAT IS A CRYSTAL GRID? |
| Crystals are believed to hold healing properties, helping you energetically boost your frequency to that of things like love, abundance, truth, or creativity. By employing healing stones and arranging them in geometric patterns—also known as sacred geometry—you can utilize a crystal grid to enhance and magnify healing crystals, extending their electromagnetic field well beyond what a single stone could provide. |
| By intentionally placing stones or crystals in different geometric patterns, you cast their energy further, communicating your intentions far and wide. |
| HOW DO CRYSTAL GRIDS WORK? |
| Crystal grids work based on the Law of Attraction, the belief that like attracts like. Therefore, a rose quartz crystal grid (like the one shown above) set with the intention of finding a healthy relationship with another could attract just that thing into its field (which includes you, intention-setter). |
| Using a crystal grid, you can attract more of your desired things into your life by utilizing the grid’s power and your mental energy! |
| HOW TO MAKE A CRYSTAL GRID |
| To create your own healing crystal grid, follow these easy steps: |
| 1. IDENTIFY YOUR GOALS |
| Journal, visualize or otherwise settle in on a specific desire, stated in the positive and present (like, “I am lighthearted and enjoy my own company” – a great mantra for rose quartz + self-love). |
| 2. GATHER STONES OR CRYSTAL FOR YOUR GRID |
| Every crystal has special qualities that speak to various facets of life. Be sure to include stones in your crystal grid that align with your aims. For example, citrine, which represents prosperity, is displayed above, while pyrite, which represents luck, is depicted below. Clear quartz is great for adding additional amplification to your crystal grid, and a crystal grid cloth or altar cloth is great for guiding your grid and holding sacred space. |
| 3. PREPARE YOUR SACRED SPACE |
| After clearing your chosen spot of clutter, it’s time to also rid any negativity by smudging or another preferred method. |
| 4. BEGIN PLACING STONES |
| Position the anchor stone in the middle of the crystal grid, keeping your objective in mind. A clear quartz point is an excellent all-purpose option for your grid; alternatively, you can choose an anchor stone that aligns with your primary objective or focus. For extra energy, you can place a paper with your intention written on it, a photo, or even a crisp $20 bill under your anchor or center stone. |
| Keeping your objective in mind, arrange the remaining stones or crystals in your preferred sacred geometry shape around your anchor stone. You can use a circle for endless abundance, great for things like health, wealth, and love; a square for strength, structure, and protection; a spiral for expansion, creativity, and flow; or a hexagon as a standard all-purpose crystal grid layout. |
| 5. ACTIVATE YOUR CRYSTAL GRID |
| Sit close to your grid and focus on your intention while you meditate. Recall that you are seated within your grid’s energy field, so maintain your concentration to avoid sending out a lot of messages to the universe. (Though it’d be cool if we could attract our grocery list right into our homes, amiright?) |
| Some additional activation techniques include: |
| Sound Activation: To activate the energies of the crystals, produce vibrations with a singing bowl or other sound device. |
| Moonlight Cleansing: Leave your crystal grid under the moonlight, especially during a full moon, to cleanse and charge the crystals with lunar energy. |
