📔 Questions to reflect on

  1. Reflect on a time you felt drawn to a particular stone or gem. What qualities do you believe that crystal embodies, and how might they relate to aspects of yourself?
  2. If you were to create a small crystal altar for a specific intention (e.g., peace, creativity, protection), which three crystals would you choose and why?
  3. Consider the idea of 'energetic cleansing' for crystals. How does this concept apply to your own personal energy or sacred space?
