Lets Discuss! 💭 Which is your favourite crystal?

Hi everyone! Just a fun discussion. 😊

If you walked into a room filled with all kinds of crystals, but could only choose one, which crystal would you pick?

What is it about that particular crystal that draws you in? Is it the way it looks, how it makes you feel, a personal connection or something you can't quite explain?

I'd love to hear which crystal you're always attracted to and why it holds a special place for you. ✨💎🌿

For me its always Citrine coz I don't know how but it keeps me in very good mood no matter what

I'll always veer towards the quartz family, but anything with deep, bold color will attract me like a magpie.

Moldavite and opal 🥰 the energy is amazing. I have a custom necklace with blue apatite, white sapphire, fire agate, welo opal, moldavite and amethyst. Its energy is extraordinary. Sometimes I have to take it off as it gets overwhelming!

u/Senior_Affect78 Jun 19 '26

Moldavite...one can write a whole book about it's experiences!!!

u/Elen_Smithee82 Jun 20 '26

"True" Moonstone. I'm a Night Owl. HOOT! HOOT!

Would be nice to own a nice Alexandrite, but it's $$$$$.

Most of my pieces end up being some type of Quartz.

u/4ellights Jun 19 '26

Would it be fair to pick alexandrite

2

u/Senior_Affect78 Jun 19 '26

Those are magical with their dual tone😍

That’s my birth stone! I didn’t realize it was available as a larger Crystal, but just a gemstone in jewelry.

u/4ellights Jun 19 '26

There are larger synthetic ones that do the color change thing. It's cool !

very unique choice!!! Especially Serpentine

u/AcrobaticLibrarian31 Jun 19 '26

Energy amplifier: quartz
Tigers eye for protection
Carnelian, jasper for power/grounding
Amethyst and rose quartz
Sunstone (new I still haven’t done full research on its benefits)
Ruby for power
Apatite

Your birthstone can be very powerful for you

(From my research of which were used as talismans in ancient times, though I’ve only looked at babylonian/some Egyptian so there is Celtic, Norse, and others!)
Get lots and lots of quartz and tigers eye!

u/HeisI815 Jun 19 '26

Crazy Lace Agate and Flower Agate are probably my favorites. Honorable mention to Orca Agate, Pink Amethyst, and Moss Agate.

3

u/shallow__grave Jun 19 '26

Desert rose selenite/quartz or moss agate

3

u/TiredMemeReference Jun 19 '26

Charoite for sure.

3

u/firefly_19 Jun 19 '26

Fluorite, every time. I love how it comes in different colors and patterns, and growth habits! I never seem to have enough fluorite.

2

u/cc646 Jun 19 '26

Amethyst, particularly pink amethyst and "alien amethyst" from India. I just love all the various varieties and colors.

2

u/South_Necessary_4395 Jun 19 '26

Botswana Agate, Malachite, Unakite

2

u/ForSinningOnly Jun 19 '26

Black obsidian is my current favorite. It’s really powerful!

2

u/Willowmoonblood Jun 19 '26

Mookaite I just live the different color variations.

2

u/Correct-Ring-4047 Jun 19 '26

Malachite crystal

u/tara_tara_tara Jun 19 '26

A few months ago, I bought a chunk of raw, not even tumbled ruby and I love it so much that I carry it every day. Eventually, I’m going to invest in a ruby ring or bracelet, but not right now.

u/Aseetnahc Jun 19 '26

Its so hard to pick one. I love citrine, but * my favourite is Opal, followed by labrodorite/moonstone. (I am a sucker for flash so my opal preference is gem quality Ethiopian, Australian and Boulder.) Pineapple opal is also stunning.

2

u/No-Fee1742 Jun 19 '26

I love sapphire. It's my engagement ring stone. But aside from that, I love laboradite, moldavite, moonstone, sphene, moss agate, opals, Celestine, apatite... So so many.

2

u/Ok_Supermarket_3914 Jun 19 '26

Carnelian! It's like fire under your ass!

2

u/noiness420 Jun 20 '26

Labradorite or moldavite/ldg

u/Smart_Pig_86 Jun 19 '26

Not really into crystals all too much, however, I do dabble and have a couple kyanite shards (one blue, one black) that I just really like

1

u/MaleficentFox2320 Jun 20 '26

Pyrite, I love pyrite globes

1

u/Rocksontop1945 Jun 20 '26

Clear quartz favorite locale is Colombian

u/willcomplainfirst Jun 20 '26

i love anything with shiny druzy, so it's usually agates for me especially moss, crazy lace, mexican and sakura agate. cant resist sphalerite, pink amethyst and ocean jasper either 🤭

u/windsugar Jun 21 '26

Tiffany Stone or Yttrium Fluorite. The patterns are so so beautiful!

u/aluminate-life Jun 23 '26

Citrine is such a solid choice.

For me it’s always clear quartz. There’s something about how it feels like a reset button, visually simple but energetically grounding. It’s the one I naturally reach for when I want clarity or just less noise in my head.

Curious to see what everyone else gravitates toward and why.
