What Natural Crystals Can Boost Negativity

Clear quartz is said to powerfully protect against negative energies.


Natural crystals have long been used by different cultures in religious ceremonies and for healing purposes. Some believe the energy field of a room or person can be changed by the color, vibration and geometric form of a natural crystal. While the idea of "crystal therapy" is not a widely accepted form of curing emotional and physical problems or blocking negative energy, some believe adamantly in the powers emitted by natural stones. There are several common crystals that may be able to repel or diminish negative energy in your environment or within your own energy field.


Quartz


Clear quartz is one of the most popular crystals and may also be one of the most powerful. According to Paul Birnie of Crystal Worlds, quartz can store and transform negative energy, amplify spiritual protection and bring energetic clarity to a person or an environment. Quartz is considered to be a multi-purpose healing stone because it may help the body purify both emotional and physical energy and stimulate a state of harmony in body and mind.








Citrine


Citrine is thought by some to be the only natural stones that does not store negative energy before transforming it into positive energy. In other words, citrine may be able to completely dissipate negative energy without absorbing it. In this way, it's a stone that does not need to be cleansed of previous energy. According to crystal supplier Soular Energy, Citrine can repel the negative energy of abuse, low self-esteem and evil spirits that may be dwelling in a home.


Black Tourmaline


Birnie notes that black tourmaline may protect against sources of low or negative energy. It may be a powerful guard against negative people, psychic attack or the disturbing emotional energy of past lives. Some believe it can bring a sense of grounding to the wearer or keeper. Black tourmaline may also help shield an environment from the harmful electronic emissions of televisions, computers and power lines.


Turquoise








Turquoise is one of the most common crystals used to make jewelry, but it also may have strong protective properties. It is said that turquoise can uplift a depressed spirit by drawing negative energy from the body and sending it back into the ground. It may also help protect from the negative energies of alcohol, pollution, poison or chemicals. Some believe turquoise can powerfully align the chakras and open the body's energy channels to higher vibrations.
