Favorite Crystal

What is your favorite crystal or stone?
 

Tallarico

Amethyst

Not only the color, but I find them really effective in helping me sleep. I have a rough crystal and a bunch that are stuck together (don't know what to call it) In the morning I put them on a window sill and around 10 pm I take them off to bed with me. I figure the sunlight and moonlight are cleansing and charging, altho I don't know which!
 

Sulis

Moonstone

Cassiopeia

Labradorite (might not be spelled corectly)

I saw this crystal described somewere as the rainbow within a storm. It certainly looks like that, when I turn it round in my hand I catch glimpses of rainbows from within the rather murky exterior. The piece I have literally pulses with energy when I hold it. :)

I love all the previous stones mentioned in this thread. I also love and have many large pieces of Fluorite. I find it has lots of properties that seem harmonious with my vibration.

Peridot is also a good stone for me, I wear it when I gamble!
Roulette anyone?

I like the peacock stone also know as borite. The colors are beautiful, but I really do not get much else out of it. I have read that it is to help cellular respiration.
 

Kyrielle

Sunstone.

The real stuff, not the manmade kind.

Another vote for Labradorite. The rainbows and silvery flashes just hypnotize me...
Tallarico: You might not want to keep putting your amethyst in the sun, it will fade the color out. I found out the hard way. I have a pretty cluster that I kept in a windowsill, and now it looks pale lavendar and "dusty."

Thanks DeLani!
I won't do that now. How to charge them? moonlight?
And to cleanse them? anyway besides seasalt?
Thanks!

I am a sucker for herkimer diamonds!

I have tons of them..... big, tiny and all sizes in between.......

I also love to work with what has been dubbed 'Aqua Aura'... crystal dipped in gold..... lovely stuff. :)

I like moonstone. I just find it calming.
