Top 5 Healing Crystals for Manifesting Wealth

Healing crystals are powerful energetic tools to help aid in manifestation. Knowing which specific crystals attract different energetic qualities can help guide you to picking out the crystal for your needs. The saying by Rumi, “What you seek is seeking you”, is one of my most favorite reminders of the power of the law of attraction and the importance of directing our energy into the things we want out of life. One area that is commonly focused on for manifestation is wealth and abundance, using prosperity centered crystals to make abundance grids or simply wearing them can make a huge impact on your life. Here are my top 5 crystals for wealth and abundance. 

#5 Malachite- This powerful dark green healing stone is great for attracting money and good fortune. Its vibrations attract financial abundance and success. This stone is also great to use when trying to manifest one’s deepest desire out of a transitional phase in life, such as starting a new job or moving. This empowering stone should be worn or placed in your surrounding environment. Learn more about the amazing stone Malachite by clicking here!

#4 Moss Agate- Known as the stone of new beginnings, this earthy crystal attracts new opportunities for success. It can help you embrace new and unexpected changes and promotes balance, while energetically attracting wealth and success. This stone is great to add to a crystal grid or carry with you. Wanting to use this stone for success? Check out some of THESE other crystals by clicking here!

#3 Pyrite- It's captivating to watch this beautiful silver to gold stone sparkle. It is often called the stone of luck. Pyrite is a powerful healing stone for manifestation and attracts abundant wealth to the user. It encourages generating abundance through one’s own power and connects you to the warm energy of the Sun. Wear this stone or add it to a wealth centered abundance grid.

#2 Green Aventurine- This light green stone is the ideal crystal for prosperity and luck. Manifesting good health, fortunate events, and opportunities this stone is excellent to have at all times. It enhances one’s leadership and can help manifest new job opportunities. Excellent to wear during a job interview or just to keep close for good luck! Click the photo below for yours. 

These green aventurine pocket stones are perfect to keep in your wallet, in your pocket, or at your work station. Do that, sit back, and watch as the fortune comes your way. 

#1 Citrine- This radiantly happy healing crystal is my personal favorite for manifestation. Its strong vibrations promote success and abundance and attract unexpected instances of good luck and positivity. Citrine also encourages confidence in the user and can stimulate wealth and prosperity. Place a piece in your wallet to attract monetary wealth.

An Upstate New Yorker's Guide To Crystal Shopping

If you're an Upstate New Yorker like me, you may have had some trouble finding the perfect spot to get your healing crystals. When I lived in the Catskills, I used to drive over an hour to shop for stones, so I understand the struggle - and yes it is real. I hope this guide can help you find the crystal shop of your dreams.

Tushita Heaven - Saratoga Springs

My favorite!!! I used to love going to this store and would reserve an entire day to browse. The crystals this store has have a unique, beautiful, light energy. I feel as though of all my crystals, the ones from Tushita Heaven have the strongest power. The only trouble I had with this store is the prices were a little high for what I was used to seeing. However, for the quality and the energy - it was well worth the price. From tumbled stones, to palm stones, to collector's pieces - they've got it all. I was also impressed by this store's book and oracle card selection. While you're shopping at Tushita Heaven, be sure to get a reading. They get some of the best psychics and tarot readers. Tushita Heaven is also my favorite place to buy gifts; they carry several home decor items that I have gifted to others that are still absolutely treasured by them.

The best place to park is in the free parking garage located just around the corner! Tushita Heaven is full of great finds. Be sure to keep your eyes peeled so you don't miss out on anything! My favorite crystal I have brought from this store is a Fenster Quartz that has the perfect enhydro. You can literally see the water droplet move.

The Magic Moon - Saratoga Springs

This shop is located at 15 Phila St., Saratoga Springs, New York 12866

While you are shopping in Saratoga Springs, be sure to walk around the corner to visit The Magic Moon. One thing I love about this store is their friendly staff. It is so difficult to walk into a crystal shop and be left alone while you want to browse, as some people want to be the guru and even sometimes a security officer. However, when you have a question, the customer service is impeccable and the ladies here know their stuff!

This used to be a small crowded store, but they have expanded since I last visited. While you're there, check out the dressing room! The artwork on the walls was unforgettable, feminine, and expressive. This store is amazing for purchasing candles, clothes, and of course CRYSTALS! This shop opened in the 1970's, contributing to Saratoga Springs' amazing history.

This store fills every nook and cranny with their wide variety. They have everything for the hippie, the witch, and the spiritualist. I've bought many crystals, gifts, bumper stickers, candles, and oils from here. They also have some really cute clothes - perfect for festival season! 

Tannãre - Walton

I am blessed to be friends with the owner of this eclectic boutique, Tammy - a loving goddess who is tough as a nail and still has the biggest heart. Her shop is full of artisan crafts from the gorgeous furniture she upcycles and custom signs she creates, to goods crafted by local artists. There are many talented people in our small county who don't get the recognition they deserve, and Tannãre offers them a chance to display their wonderful items. From everything to unique woodcarvings, to jewelry, to custom cards (I also have a few products in her store!). Tannãre is also a great place to fulfill your natural needs. The owner creates her own line of Full Moon Elixirs: natural goods including body scrubs, laundry detergents, and my favorite - the waxing and waning body whip. 

Tannãre frequently gives back to the community by composing beautiful gift baskets to be auctioned or raffled. She recently has begun offering "Creating Chaos" classes to give the community a chance to express themselves creatively by offering art projects that you can take home (and want to take home - step aside, paint & sip!!!) 

Obviously this store wouldn't be mentioned if it weren't for the crystals she offers! From amazing deals on her Himalayan Salt Lamps, to beautiful tumbled stones, to spells in a jar. She sometimes carries home decor for the bohemian soul; such as beautiful dreamcatchers or tapestries. 

Props to Tannãre for bringing a bit of light into our rural community! This shop is a true hidden gem (no pun intended!) 

Located at 150 Delaware St., Walton, NY 13856.

Crystal Connection - Wurtsboro

"The Church of a Thousand Crystals"

This shop has gotten some awesome attention lately from Insider's video that went viral. If you missed it, you can watch it below. If you plan on checking out this shop, be sure to make a day of it because there is just so much to see. I love Crystal Connection for providing knowledge and information to the public. They offer a ton of workshops and classes. Crystal Connection is also more than a store, it a place of healing and self knowledge. While you're here try a reiki session, a reading, or even aura photography to see what your aura looks like. This shop also offers psychic fairs! 

This beautiful shop has amazing prices on crystals and an immense selection. With all the hype of this store, they truly keep their prices affordable for all to enjoy the beauty and energy of the stones. This store is for the spiritual one, the one seeking enlightenment, the one possessing magic. However, if you are just learning stones - this is a great place to start. 

The location of Crystal Connection is 116 Sullivan St, Wurtsboro NY 12790. 

Must....touch....everything! Can you feel the energy from the picture?

Nutz - Wappingers Falls

 

If you're more of a hippie than a goddess, I say go to Nutz! When I first pulled into the parking lot of this store, I did not believe that crystals were going to be inside! However, they have a huge selection of crystals, singing bowls, smudge sticks, deity figures, and oils - even among all the bongs and pipes (for tobacco, of course). They have a wide selection of incense and candles, tapestries, and everything else you could ever want out of a store. However, if you're like me and you want to touch the crystals before you buy, this may not be the shop for you. Most of their items are locked away. Feeling the energy of the stones is a huge part of the crystal shopping experience, so if you want to tap into that vibe, I would recommend a store that lets you do that instead.

Dreaming Goddess - Poughkeepsie

The Dreaming Goddess is a shop like no others. From one twenty-something-year-old-free-spirit-love-and-light-believer-modern-flower-child to the next, this is the shop to go to!!! They have beautiful clothes (the kind we actually WANT to wear), they carry beautiful crystals, and they offer classes - another store that's not afraid to share their knowledge and light. This store combines the sacred culture behind esoteric practices with a modern twist. They tend to our current culture, but do not allow us to forget the beauty in ancient practices.

"We’re creating ceremony relevant to our time and to our culture, allowing these auspicious days to have deep meaning in our lives and in our connection to the Earth. "

Sacred sprays, herbs, roots, resins, candles, oils, tumbled stones, raw crystals, exquisite specimens, jewelry, and pottery are just some of the wonderful products offered by this shop. This shop also recycles your old books! Great way to save the trees and spread the love! Another way this shop gives back is by helping build bridges for their customers and an array of charities. Pay it forward, get karma on your side, help one in need, and donate as you shop. 

A metaphysical boutique! A true beauty of a shop. Photo from yelp. 

Once again, boho babe, you've found the store for you. You've found the place to build connection with yourself, with like-minded souls, with the beauty of the earth, and with spirit. This is not just a crystal shop, this is a boutique for the modern goddess. 

Located 44 Raymond Ave, Poughkeepsie, NY 12603

Don't forget to head around the corner to the sanctuary. Info & photo here.

Easy Ways To Connect With Your Spirit Guides

Every single one of us has a designated Spirit Guide, sometimes more than one. These guides are loyal and dedicated to showing you what path to follow: they help, guide, and encourage you. The thought of meeting your guide can at first be intimidating, but by trying a few of these easy tips can easily connect you to their worlds of wisdom and love. 

1. Ask for a sign!

I am such a believer in signs! Seriously, pay attention to the world around you... numbers that seem important, animal totems, nature that stands out like flowers blooming or feathers, sometimes even an actual SIGN like a billboard will tell you what you need to know. All you have to do is say "Hey Guides, let me know ____ please!" It's like talking to your friend, because they are your friends - ready to see you grow. 

2. Meditate or Pray and Listen

Meditate on what you want to know. This is perhaps my favorite method. Close your eyes and focus on what it is you want in life. For example, say you have a BIG career choice. Stay at the job that makes you miserable or make a sacrifice and try something different. Meditate on it. Will the job get easier? Will the risk be worth it? After you have set your intention to just your options and questions, give yourself time to clear your mind. A direct or indirect answer may pop into your head in the form of a word, a symbol, an image, etc. If you need help interpreting the message, further your meditation. 

3. "Stream of Consciousness" - the flow of thought. 

This is an exercise my dear friend Cassandra taught me. I remember doing this as a writing exercise in school, letting your thoughts flow on paper never stopping to pick up your pen never worrying about punctuation or making sense just letting all your thoughts out. The trick is to write on paper, "hello spirit guides, please come tell me what I need to know." You can act as a conduit of their energy by scribbling whatever it is. Read the paper after and you might find some answers!

4. Dreamwork helps the Team Work! 

This is an excellent way to contact angels, departed loved ones, fairies, your inner child, or guides. Before you go to bed, ask your guides to visit you in your dreams. You can ask for specific guidance or information or general. If your dreams are anything like mine, lots of interpretation may need to come into play when you wake up. 

5. My Favorite - Healing Crystals

Obviously Spirit Quartz is going to be the best stone for connecting with Spirit Guides. Spirit Quartz, sometimes called cactus quartz, has such an extremely high vibration. Spirit Quartz is said to open your higher chakras to help connect you to higher planes and other dimensions. This stone will help attract your guides by raising your vibration and activating those higher energy centers. Channel your intention of meeting them and if you have a specific area that needs assistance, put all that energy in your crystal. It will intensify your experiences with your spirit guides and will amplify your chances of meeting them. Other crystals you can use to connect with guides are Amethyst, Danburite, and Celestite.
