Crystal or Stone Magick is very simple and inexpensive to perform.

Stones and their wonderful spirits are all around us.

Cleansing Stones

Stones are subjected to a 'multitude of energies' before they arrive in your home.

Prior to using them in magick, it is advised that you perform a cleansing or purification on the stones. However it is always preferable to listen to your stones/crystals first to 'hear' if they require a cleansing.

There are a number of different methods of cleansing-here are  a few:These  are simple processes which remove any past influences from the stone getting it ready for your use.Place the stones in full sunlight for a day, 3 days, or even a week.Placing them in direct sunlight is the way to go – not behind a window on a ledge. Some stones will clear after a day – some others will take longer. Check the stones daily and 'sense the energies by placing them in your receptive hand' (left hand if you are right handed – opposite if you are left handed).

If the vibrations are regular, the cleansing has been successful.

**Important to note that 'some stones' will damage/fade in the sun.

1. Bury the stones in the ground for a week or so then check to see if they have been purified. If they have wash them off and your magick can begin.
2. Run the stones under running water and wipe off with a white cloth. Check to see if they have been purified – if not – repeat the process.
3. Another method that is popular is using sea salt either by mixing the salt with water and soaking the stone or by rubbing the salt directly onto the stone. Many stones 'can get damaged' by the harshness of salt – if you are not sure whether your stone will be adversely affected by the salt – avoid it altogether.**Rule of thumb – the softer the stone the harsher the damage.
4. Place the stones – preferably outside – at the start of a Full Moon for 3 nights.
5. Burn sage and pass the stones through the smoke.

Charging Stones

'Charging' -you are encouraging or awaking the stone to help you or someone else with the properties it already possess. By charging, you are asking for a 'specific kind of help'. You are letting the stone know which of its powers you need the most. It is also wise to ask the stone  if it indeed needs a 'boost' many do not need the encouragement to help – they share their knowledge and powers 'willingly'.

'Charging' is simply done by holding the stones in your projective hand (right if right handed – left if left handed)visualizing your magickal need and pouring energy from your body into the stone.

 Once you can feel the vibrations – you know that the stone has been charged.

Simple Stone Spells

 

Prosperity

New Year’s Stone – At sunrise on the morning of the new year, go outside and find the largest stone you can carry. Take this back to your house and put it in a place of prominence. If you keep the stone in your house for a year, it will be one filled with prosperity.

[Replace the stone every year]

Luck

On the Fence – Rise before the Sun on the morning of the Spring Equinox. Find several stones and place them on the fence posts that surround your property, visualizing yourself, your home and a life filled with luck.

Love

Stone Love – Go to a place that contains many 'water-worn' stones. Look for a large flat rock while visualizing yourself being involved with the perfect mate.

On this rock-mark with red ink-2 intertwined hearts. As you do this keep visualization in mind. When you are finished bury the stone in the earth in an uncultivated place.

Protection

The Five Pebbles – Go to a moving brook or stream. While standing in the water and facing downstream remove five small pebbles from the stream bed. As you do this visualize your need for protection[*or in the name of another-visualize them].

As your hand closes over the pebbles see them beaming out protective energies. Just as the pebbles are hard and have weathered for eons so too will they strengthen your protective shield.Now carry them at all times for protection. If you wish place them in a small pouch or a fold of cloth or incorporate them into some form of jewelry.
