Crystals are powerful healing tools, and you can use them to boost your natural spiritual healing power. Crystals can help with your physical, emotional, and spiritual health; they can help you with your finances and romantic relationship, they can amplify your healing power, help you and your children sleep better, and assist you in feeling happy and peaceful.

The crystals also work by assisting you in healing and helping you communicate with your guardian angels and archangels.

I have created a list with the most common crystals and their properties. I hope this list helps you to choose the crystals that can better help you. In most of the cases I recommend to wear the crystal. However there are some crystals that is a good idea to have them at your home and/or office, due to their great ability to clear spaces, protect or to attract what you need i.e. Amethyst is good to attract money and to absorb negative energy; Clear Quartz absorb negativity and transform it into positive energy; Rose Quartz attracts love.

The Oracle Cards are an ancient divination tool that allows you to clearly receive messages from the Angels. These cards are a connection with your Angels and Archangels. They can be an excellent tool to add clarity to any situation.

They work by allowing messages to flow through them to you, facilitating the process of receiving Divine guidance. The angel Oracle Cards are infused with light and love, so we can rest assured that they are safe, positive, and amazingly accurate.

Each card comes with a message at the bottom and they usually come with a booklet containing the meaning of each card.

The tarot can be used as a divining tool by reading cards that are selected unseen from a deck, and interpreting the interaction of the cards and their positions in a spread (specific layout), with reference to issues of importance in your life.

Tarot decks normally contain 78 cards, 22 of which are referred to as the Major Arcana and depict the major changes on our path through life. The remaining 56 cards, known as the Minor Arcana, expand on these themes. Like a pack of playing cards, the Minor Arcana are made up of four suits - wands, representing the spirit/fire, cups the emotions/water, swords the mind/air and pentacles the physical world/earth - numbered 1 to 10, Page, Knight, Queen, King. Some decks use different names for these suits, and others substitute Prince and Princess for Page and Knight, but most of the qualities represented by the cards are similar.

The first commercial deck - the Rider Waite deck - on which many modern decks are based, was produced in 1910 by A. E. Waite. The tarot has continued to grow in popularity, and modern printing methods ensure that it is becoming available to anyone who wishes to explore its uses. This is not to say that everyone understands the tarot - only study and personal growth can help to reveal its many mysteries.

The word intuition is defined by Merrian-Websters dictionary as:

1: quick and ready insight

2 a: immediate apprehension or cognition

   b: knowledge or conviction gained by intuition

   c: the power or faculty of attaining to direct knowledge or cognition without evident rational thought and inference

For me intuition is an inner knowing without thinking. Intuition describes a wide variety of ways you get information without using known logical or rational processes.  All people have intuitive capabilities, but some might not be aware of them. We have called intuition with several other names like hunch, precognition, sixth sense, gut feeling, etc.

The term Spirit Guide generally makes reference to one or more entities, which watch, teach, heal, and help you on your physical journey into spiritual awareness.

The general characteristic that separates a Spirit Guide from other types of spiritual beings is that they have lived a physical life and have returned to aide others in working through the same lessons they have been through. A guide could also be someone we knew in a previous life, or indeed, a family member. Due to the time they have spent as spirits, they have become highly developed in spiritual ways. They choose to remain close to the earth life, and act as a link and teacher. They can often appear in groups as well as singular.

Apart from the different forms they might take, some Spirit Guides have special attributes. Here are just a few:

One of the easiest ways to get answers from your higher-self.

A pendulum is a method of divination or dowsing that produces a yes or no answer in response to a question. In the past, this technique was often used to locate underground source water, mineral and lost objects.   Pendulums have been used in various cultures for thousands of years and can be made from very simple materials. Some pendulums can be made of a variety of materials including crystals, wood, glass, and metals. They are often used as tools for spiritual healing and inner growth.

The type of stone you get for your pendulum can have an effect on how it interacts with you, or what it is better at predicting. Often healers work with crystals that offer healing energy or protection. Some people prefer very clear quartz, which they feel is better at shining light on the truth.
