99 Crystals for Strength: Unlock the Power Within
Table of Contents
12. Diamond
Chakra: All chakras
The only white gem in this article besides moonstone (#84), diamonds are the toughest stone on earth. Like they say in the James Bond song “Diamonds Are Forever,” a crystal grid of diamonds can keep you company, protect you, and help you rejuvenate after a time of loss or heartbreak.
You can trust that a diamond would never betray you, but uniquely, its strength serves as a great weapon and tool in industrial applications. While diamonds are an untraditional choice for crystal healing, I’ve always liked the lyric and mantra “I don’t need love, for what would love do me? Diamonds never lie to me.”
13. Smoky Quartz
Chakra: Root
Quartz comes in all sorts of colors. The white variety is known for purifying the aura and healing the whole body, but this variety is a little more mysterious. It brings to light old wounds.
This stone is associated with the Greek goddess Hecate, who rules over magic and spells. In Celtic traditions, the druids or “knowers of the oak tree” worshipped this stone for its powers. It is thought that while carrying this stone, goddess Hecate will know if you are entering a new door and she will guide you away from danger.
14. Black Onyx
Chakra: Root
This is the “Stone of Self Mastery”. It is recommended for starting new endeavors or hobbies because it will encourage wise decision-making.
This amazingly dark stone will suck up any negative energy like a black hole, giving you time to rest and lift some weights when you need it.
15. Sunset Aura Quartz
Chakra: Sacral
My favorite YouTuber Gem Goddess uses this type of quartz in a tarot reading about a future home. Sunset aura quartz is formed when regular quartz gets combined with silver, vaporized titanium, and other metals.
This orangey stone can help illuminate your true desires and go after what you want. It clears blockages to positivity, set positive intentions, boosts life transitions, and increases focus. What more could you want for a strengthening power?
16. Eye Agate
This natural stone is a unique addition to your crystal collection. Its black and orange hues along with its eye-like imagery are motivating for getting things done.
It will keep an eye on you and be a supportive friend when you have to get through that heavy workload by the end of the day. That is if he doesn’t creep you out too much sitting on your desk! He might be more comforting to see from that shelf over there.
17. Yooperlite
Chakra: Sacral
Not sure why I didn’t put this further up on the list, but yooperlite is a fantastic addition for strengthening your sacral chakra.
Appearing like the lit coals of dragon’s fire, yooperlite is a special fluorescent rock found on the shores of Lake Superior. It glows but only in certain lighting. Yes, it’s real. Channel your inner dragon when you need it with this eye-catching rock.
18. Danburite
Chakra: Solar Plexus
According to the International Gem Society, this is an underappreciated stone. It isn’t rare but it can be hard to find a large one like the image above.
It is a sweet stone for wearing on your neck to increase your confidence and go get ‘em.
19. Ammolite
Chakra: All chakras
This brilliant gemstone contains Silica, Calcite, and Pyrite. It is formed from Aragonites inside fossilized Ammonite shells. A great stone for creating a new you and getting in touch with your past lives, Ammolite symbolizes perfection and the ancient Greek god Ammon.
It’s believed to contain all the power of the universe, helping you heal from emotional stress. Pair this stone with orange oil to stay awake in the mornings and be a firecracker wherever you go!
20. Black (Tahitian) Pearl
Chakras: Root, Sacral, Heart
These rare pearls come from the French Polynesian Islands. Outside the obvious Pirates of the Caribbean reference, many myths and legends surround this type of pearl. These have different meanings in Polynesia and China.
While some believed they attracted oysters and love, others believed them to be made of infinite wisdom from dragon’s heads. In Ceylon legend, black pearls were supposed to be from Adam’s tears, while white pearls were from Eve’s tears.
Since men don’t cry as much as women, it could explain why black pearls are so rare. Be careful of this pearl’s dark energy when it comes to matters of the heart, but it’s useful in black magic applications.
