Do you feel down on your luck? Crystals can help you unlock the ability to attract good things into your life. Unfortunately, it’s not quite as simple as pocketing a crystal and flipping a switch to become a “lucky person.”
Crystals can be powerful tools for enhancing rituals and manifestations associated with personal growth, love, and healing. These manifestations may feel and look a lot like luck, but there is more to it than just hoping for good favor from the universe!
How is Luck Connected to Crystals?
Energy is the force of life; when the energy coursing through your physical and energetic bodies is blocked or imbalanced, you may experience physical and mental symptoms that make you feel like you are down on your luck. These symptoms can include:
- Chronic negative emotions
- Repetitive unhealthy patterns
- Feeling disconnected from one’s purpose and inner truth
- A lack of motivation and drive
- Low energy
- Disrupted sleep
- Unexplained aches and pains
These circumstances may make some people believe that they are “unlucky,” but instead of a boost of luck, what you may need is a shift in energy.
In my Culinary Alchemy® method, I work with clients through nutrition, Reiki, energy work, mindfulness, manifestations, affirmations, and meditation, in conjunction with crystals to support a balanced energetic flow. Crystals aren’t magical stones that will increase your luck and bring you all your heart’s desires, but they can increase the impact of your healing practices. Used in this way, crystals can support prosperity, relationships, health, and personal growth—things you may be looking to luck to help you find.
The Best Crystals for Good Luck
Based on the universal law of attraction, you’ll attract the energy you emit. To draw beautiful, loving energy, you must find that within yourself first. This may require a holistic lifestyle shift, change in mindset, or clearing of stagnant energy. Once you find balance within your energetic flow, you can begin to recalibrate your vibration to attract the beautiful things you desire. Crystals can help amplify the practices and rituals helping you achieve these shifts.
Clear Quartz
Clear quartz is often called the “master crystal” because of its versatility. It is one of the most energy-absorbing crystals in nature.
Clear quartz attracts positivity, repels negativity, and helps clear the mind. It also helps balance the crown chakra, which is helpful because perceived luck is often about leaning into your intuition. Clear quartz can also help you harness the power of other stones.
Rose Quartz
Rose quartz can be used intentionally to nurture relationships—with romantic partners, friends, family, or yourself. This stone’s soft, lovely pink hue elicits the softness of unconditional love. This crystal has been said to attract love, magnify creativity, and offer calm in times of uncertainty.
Smoky Quartz
Smoky quartz is often used to enhance passion, grounding, and protection. Sometimes, the luck you need is as simple as someone looking out for you—and smoky quartz can serve as a reminder to look out for yourself. This crystal also helps you reconnect with things for which your passion has waned, whether it be a relationship or a hobby.
Smoky quartz was popular in Druid rituals and was believed to help souls find their way to the afterlife. This ancient crystal may allow you to uncover moments of luck and protection.
Citrine
Citrine is known for its uplifting vibrations. Sometimes described as a “sunny” crystal, citrine enhances feelings of warmth, happiness, positivity, creativity, and motivation. These positive vibrations can help you manifest positivity throughout your life.
Citrine is often used by those focusing on the manifestation of wealth and confidence.
Green & Red Jade
Jade is associated with wealth and nobility. Both red and green jade have long been tied to luck and positive outcomes.
Red jade emits energies of luck, dream fulfillment, and fidelity. It can nurture self-reliance and confidence, especially when you feel “down on your luck.”
Green jade is most commonly associated with wealth and financial luck. It is also a calming stone that can be helpful during times of stress and anxiety.
Green Aventurine
This translucent quartz is strongly associated with financial stability. It also contains fuchsite, which increases the effects of other crystals.
Use green aventurine to focus on clearing negative emotions, which can be a roadblock to your personal growth. Choose this crystal with gratitude, and that gratitude will emanate from you.
Turquoise
Turquoise is said to bring people protection and peace.
This stone can be helpful for those who struggle to balance complex emotions or need support with self-expression and communication. It also enhances feelings of love and forgiveness.
This stone has been used in countless traditions and rituals throughout many cultures around the world, including Egypt, the American Southwest, China, Mexico, and France.
Carnelian
This reddish-orange derivative of chalcedony is an energizing crystal that helps to ignite a fire inside of you. When you need to be a warrior, carnelian offers the stability and courage you need.
Sometimes, all you need to find your luck is to face your fears bravely.
Tiger’s Eye
The stunning tiger’s eye gives you the confidence to try new things and the courage to do what frightens you. You never know what opportunity you are passing up if you never leave your comfort zone.
With a tiger’s eye, you can find the confidence you need to overcome doubt, uncertainty, and worry.
Garnet
Garnet is often red, but it comes in a variety of different colors, including orange, green, pink, warm honey brown, and black.
Garnet is considered a lucky crystal for travelers, especially those who are traveling to find passion, as it supports self-examination.
This stone also has the reputation of helping people find luck at work, which could mean aligning yourself with a promotion, new job, better work-life balance, or an attitude shift that changes how you perceive your limits.
Labradorite
Instead of waiting for luck to find you, labradorite helps you change your mindset and achieve new states of consciousness. It is an ideal stone for use during meditation and self-improvement practices and rituals. Wearing a Labradorite crystal bracelet can enhance these experiences by keeping the stone’s energy close to you throughout the day, promoting clarity and transformation.
Malachite
Malachite is a deep, stunning green that can be found in places where there are natural copper deposits. It is often found alongside iron oxide, Azurite, and calcite.
Malachite is known to harness protection and creativity and enhance courage and wisdom.
Black Tourmaline
Black tourmaline is all about creating positive energy. In addition to helping increase motivation, it clears negative energy and provides spiritual guidance.
Many traditions use this stone as a protective shield for the person carrying or wearing it. Others rub their fingers over black tourmaline to create magnetic electricity, which helps them feel connected to the energy of the moment.
How to Choose the Best Crystals for Good Luck
Thinking about luck in terms of attracting positive energy instead of making miracles appear out of nowhere can help you become an architect of your life. Through healing work, you have the power to make your dreams come true; crystals are merely tools to support you on your journey. When your energy flows and aligns with your purpose, you will attract the right things—opportunities, relationships, or experiences.
Once you’ve selected the crystals that will help you align your energy with everything in the universe that is yours, you can utilize them in many ways. Like most spiritual practices, you can try several rituals and uses and see what works best for you.
If you’re having difficulty choosing your crystals, I recommend tapping into your intuition. Your soul’s guidance is even more powerful than research and recommendations. You know precisely what you need to find peace, balance, and positivity in your life.
How to Use Crystals for Good Luck
Carry or Wear Your Crystals
Crystals are usually available in many forms, including pocket stones, bracelets, and pendants. The main value of carrying crystals is that their presence serves as a mindful reminder to be conscientious of how your spirit interacts with the world around you. When you place your energy on your intentions, you will begin to see your desires manifest.
Additionally, feeling unlucky can make people feel anxious, especially in new or uncomfortable situations. Hold your crystal in your hand as a grounding stone to find center and calm.
Place Your Crystals in your Home, Workplace, or Car
You don’t always need to have the crystal in your hand for it to increase your mindfulness. You may also be reminded of your spiritual practice by placing crystals in your home and work environments.
- On your desk at work
- On your nightstand in your room
- On the end table next to your favorite spot to read or watch TV
- In your car, especially if you have a long commute
I highly encourage you to keep crystals near the spaces where you practice meditation. Choose large pieces of crystals associated with the vibration you would like to attract and integrate them into your meditative practice.
Make a Crystal Grid
Creating a crystal grid is the practice of intentionally arranging crystals in a symmetrical design in a way that helps to store and manage energy. Working with crystals in this way can help you set the energy of a space or infuse intention into your mindfulness practices and rituals.
Place Crystals On Your Body During Meditation
One of the best ways to use crystals’ vibrations for healing is to integrate them into your meditation practice. Meditating while placing crystals on your body can help create a focal point, enhance intentionality, and amplify the power of your practice. Additionally, placing crystals on each chakra center can help you align your chakras and balance your body, mind, and spirit.
While crystals may not have the power to create good luck, they can support powerful practices that can shift your energy and attract wonderful things in your life. Think of crystals not as lucky charms but as friends helping you along your healing journey.
