A question commonly asked here at the shop is "what crystals are good for xyz....." Honestly, my answer is trust your gut. Are you drawn to a specific crystal but you don't know why? This is the one for you, and the reason may not be clear at first, but if you do a little digging either in books or even by sitting with your crystal and connecting with it, you will more than likely find that it is exactly what you need in that moment - I believe that Crystals have a wonderful way of choosing us not the other way round.
However, below is a list of our most commonly asked questions regarding specific "conditions" and the crystals that are commonly used to help:
Anxiety - Epidote, Fluorite, Sodalite & Zebra Stone
Calming - Amethyst, Howlite, Red Jasper & Snowflake Obsidian
Confidence - Fluorite, Hematite & Sodalite
Depression - Blue Quartz, Smoky Quartz, Sunstone & Zebra Stone
Grief - Amethyst, Apache Tear, Epidote & Smoky Quartz
Headaches - Amethyst, Lapis Lazuli & Smoky Quartz
Love - Green Aventurine, Rose Quartz, Rhodonite & Rhodocrosite
Menopause - Amethyst, Carnelian, Fluorite & Moonstone
PMS - Amethyst, Clear Quartz, Moonstone & Rose Quartz
Positivity - Black Tourmaline, Howlite & Sunstone
Protection - Carnelian, Labradorite, Obsidian & Tiger Eye.
For all the above, there are many other crystals that could be good too and as I said before - trust your instinct when it comes to choosing the crystal which is right for you - focus on what you would like help with and let the crystals do the talking :)
