Metaphysical Crystals

Welcome to Metaphysical Crystals and Crystal Healing

This site is slowly being moved to http://www.metaphysicalcrystals.net/trademarked-crystals.html You'll find the information under trademarked crystals on our new website. You can also click on Metaphysical Crystals above, and the link will take you to the home page of the website.

This site provides tips to identify exquisite metaphysical healing crystals and stones and whether they are what they say they are. You'll find that many metaphysical crystals have "unusual" names but that they are essentially the same crystal that you can purchase from another vendor for one tenth of the cost. Many of these crystals are used as stones in jewelry.

New Age Metaphysical Crystals and Stones - Are They Really That New?

Let me start off by telling you that I’m a Graduate Gemologist by Trade, a Crystal Healer by Heart and Degree, and a Skeptic by Nature. I've been selling all varieties of rocks and metaphysical crystals, from pebbles found on remote mountaintops, to crystals purchased at New Age Shows, to the new (but not really so new) Azeztulite. I've also sold many stones for jewelry. I've sold tons of quartz healing crystals, amethyst, healer's gold, pink quartz, golden labradorite, chalcedony and even diamonds, etc. But, there are so many different names for New Age metaphysical crystals that the average buyer has no idea what they are buying, and unless one is very discerning and has a lot of knowledge in this area, one could literally be spending a fortune on a stone that is worth about twenty five cents (if even that). This website is going to try to help you with a few of the myths (which most people are not even aware exist) concerning many metaphysical crystals. Hopefully, this will also help your pocketbook when it comes to Metaphysical New Age Crystals and gems for jewelry.

First of all, I must tell you that I do believe in the healing aspects of crystals. They do work in the healing arena, but one needs to be aware what they're purchasing. The old adage, a rose by any other name would smell just as sweet, is certainly true. But a rose that costs $20.00 doesn’t smell quite as sweet as a rose that costs .03 when they are, in fact, the exact same thing.

I’ve sold many New Age Stones, Reiki, Wiccan, etc., in my business, but just because someone takes a crystal or a rock and puts a fancy name on it doesn’t change the metaphysical properties one iota. The metaphysical crystal is the same if you paid three cents for it or over twenty dollars.

Buyer beware. There are quite lot of Metaphysical Crystals and stones for jewelry that are essentially quite common ordinary crystals or rocks, and I hope I can help you make the right choice when purchasing.
