In this blog post I will touch on all of the main things you need to know about manifesting with crystals. Including how to prepare the crystal and setting clear intentions.
How to manifest with crystals.
When it comes to manifesting with crystals, there are two main components which are knowing how to manifest, what crystals to use and how to use them.
How to manifest with crystals.
Here I will tell you exactly how to manifest using crystals step by step.
Which crystal shall I use?
If you are experienced with crystals and know their healing properties then you definitely want to use a crystal that has metaphysical healing properties that align with your goal/desired outcome. So if for example you want to attract more money into your life, seeking financial abundance, then I would highly recommend that you use Malachite or Pyrite. These two crystals in particular are incredibly powerful for attracting abundance.
Don’t panic if you don’t know what crystals you have OR if you don’t know their healing properties. Any crystal that is clear and transparent such as Clear Quartz - which is also known as ‘The Master Healer’ will help you greatly.
Simply just pick any crystal that you feel most drawn too. What do I mean by drawn too? Well just look around at your crystals and there will be one or more that will be catching your attention - that is their way of shouting and screaming at you saying ‘Pick Me, Pick Me, I am the one you need!’. Or you may choose to hold some in your hands and one in particular may make your hand feel a little warmer or colder than the others and you may experience tingling sensations, or even just feel like it needs to just stay there. THAT is how you know exactly what crystal energy you need right at that very moment!
So, you’ve picked your crystal - fabulous! Now what?....
Now you need to cleanse & charge the crystal if it has been in contact with anyone else. You can use running water for most crystals (providing they are not porous or in a rough (raw) stone). You also use smoke from incense, candles, palo santo or sage but please be careful not to burn yourself or cause a fire! Or you can of course just place it on some selenite.
Program Your Crystal.
Then spend a few moments really setting the intention for that crystal. This will program the crystal so it uses its energies to focus on what you desire/need its assistance with. You can do this with your eyes open or closed. If you close your eyes just make sure you are picturing the exact crystal you will be using. Holding it in your hand or having contact with it, will also help the transference of energy. Relax your body entirely and then whilst touching the crystal picture and feel the plan or intention of what you want to manifest.
Meditation Time!
My favourite way is to have a quiet space, maybe some relaxing soothing music, and get into a comfortable meditative pose. Calm and relax your breathing, just focus on relaxing and then when you feel ready, start to envisage what it is you want to manifest. Go into as much detail as you possibly can. This is your time now to fully embody everything that you want to manifest - don’t skip the rest of the blog, make sure you read below it’s important key information you need to know about manifesting.
Alternatively, you can create your own alter, using crystals that are themed to support your vision. Use candles and write down clear affirmations confirming your future vision is now already a reality. BUT you need to make sure that you fully encompass and believe it emotionally inside for it to work. When you feel that shift within your energy, then the Universe will start sending you signs and opportunities to support you vision.
Key secrets to manifesting.
Know what you want to manifest!
It sounds simple and you’re probably thinking duh, obviously - but in total honesty most of the time when people believe they are manifesting they aren’t getting the results they want. That is because they are not 100% clear on what they want. When you aren’t completely clear, things are too vague and so the Universe will only give you vague results.
The language in which you use when you talk to yourself is a huge impacting factor in your results.
You need to be able to embody this future version of yourself, or having achieved that materialistic goal for example.
When manifesting you need to use all of your senses and have a very clear goal in your mind's eye (third eye chakra) in order to bring it into reality. You need to be able to use all of your senses and emotions in order to really fuel this vision.
What senses do you need to use when manifesting your dream life?
Below I have given some examples just to open your mind a little to focussing one getting far more clear that you could ever imagine. This isn’t an exhaustive list and you can add your own to them, take what you will and leave the rest. It is not a one size fits all scenario and as long as you get the desired results you are looking for, that is all that matters 😀.
Sight - picture yourself in that environment, doing the things you would be doing when living that lifestyle. Maybe it’s a new home, driving your dream car, working your dream home or even earning your dream amount of money - picture the money in your bank account, imagine spending the money on what you want knowing that money is in abundance with no stress and you don’t even have to think about it.
Touch - What do the clothes you are wearing feel like? What flooring do you have? How warm is the air on your skin? How soft is the bedding? If it’s a partner - how does it feel to have their arms wrapped around you or to be cuddling or holding their hand?
Taste - What food will you be eating when you are living that lifestyle? What drinks will you be drinking? Do they taste very cold, extremely hot, bitter, sweet, spicy, melting in your mouth?
Smell - What can you smell? Maybe the sea air, countryside, pollen from the flowers, seaweed, perfume, aftershave, chocolate or maybe the smell of a freshly cleaned house.
Sound - What can you hear? The waves crashing against the rocks, boats rocking in the harbour, wind chimes, crackling of a fire, birds singing, wind rustling in the tree’s, music, celebrations, maybe even a round of applause, people cheering, loved ones or even yourself laughing.
BUT remember 1 key factor is EMOTION - your feelings will power this process. If your vision does not stir your emotions in some way such as PRIDE, LOVE, GRATITUDE, JOY, HAPPINESS your manifesting will be empty.

Hi Cath, it's been a while, but I would love to get a recurring virtual appointment, to talk general spiritual stuff and how it affects crystals and astrology etc. Recurring virtual would be good, after having a wonderful session with you. I want to explore and develop my crystal relationships too. I want to be as spirtitual as I can. It's obvious crystals work. Friday evenings or saturday afternoons could world virtually, I want to unlock my spirit and unlock stones/astrology. I need to unlock my spiritual life!.
