The “Best” Stones for Crystal Healing June 6
I get asked often which are the “best” crystals and stones to have around for crystal healing. I usually get the feeling folks are looking for some complex answer, some sort of “Holy Grail” of crystals. I’m not knocking this at all! If you look at that photo there, you can see I surely have a bunch of different kinds. And that’s on the tip of the iceberg of my personal collection! Having a lot of crystals and their energies at your disposal can be great! But I’m not sure there’s any such thing as a “Holy Grail” of crystals, for all that I hear about this or that or the other wonderful stone, and have experienced so many wonderful ones.
But I continue to find from experience and study that the basics are the “best” crystals to have for crystal healing. If I could choose only 3 types of crystals/stones to have, I would have Quartz Crystals, Rose Quartz, and Black Tourmaline (Schorl). Many, many others are wonderful, and thankfully I don’t have to have only 3 stones. But if I really had to choose, those three basics are the ones I would pick. And if I absolutely had to choose a “Holy Grail” of crystals, it would be Quartz Crystals without a bit of hesitation.

Hi,
You are absolutely right about your choice of crystals.
But I would also add two more to that - an azurite/azurite malachite and a kyanite.
I do have quite a collection, but while travelling I always carry Clear quartz, amethyst, azurite, kyanite and yes, a rose quartz too. An amethyst pendulum is also a part of my kit. These come in very handy for any impromptu healing requirements.
