How to Store your Crystals

There are many ways that healing crystals can be stored, depending on your personal taste and how you want to use them.

There isn’t a right or wrong system. We all have our own preferences, so play around with different options until you find what works for you.

You could group crystals by form:

Tumble stones.
Raw or unpolished stones.
Polished stones.
Fragile stones.

Or you can organise in various other ways:

Size.
Type of crystal.
Property.
Chakra association.
Colour.
Crystals for an alter.
Value.
Crystals that don’t require charging (such as selenite or citrine).
Crystals to be placed around the home, car or office.
Stones for everyday use or a specific purpose (such as travelling).
Crystals for gifts.

Once you’ve decided on a system that’s best for you and your environment, the next decision is which type of container to store them in.

Which Type of Container is Best for Storing Crystals?

There are many different ways you can keep crystals safely stored.

Some people like to use labelled plastic containers. We would not normally recommend this as the crystals need something more natural. However if you need to do this, make sure you line the boxes with a natural fabric.
Wood is a good material.You can choose open shelves or the old ink press trays, which have the added advantage of built-in organisation.
If you’re not drawn to wood, stone or glass containers are excellent alternatives.
Small chests, boxes and jewellery cases are easy to move around and provide more protection than fabric bags. You may be lucky to find one with dividers or you could make some yourself.
Organza bags are useful for travelling with crystals, but be wary about mixing raw and polished stones. Fabric bags are also not the best choice for delicate crystals.
Display cabinets for crystals can be a beautiful focal point in a living room. Cabinets have the obvious advantage of allowing your crystals to be visible, although this may make your collection more susceptible to other people’s negative energy.

How to Place Crystals in the Container

The final decision is how to place crystals in your container. This might sound obvious, but there are a few ways to further protect your collection.
Wrapping your crystals in a natural fabric can protect their energies. Silk and leather/suede, in particular, are said to block all transmitted and received energy. If you don’t want to use these materials due to their origin, other fabrics or even unbleached paper can have a similar effect.
If you still want to be able to see your crystals, try lining the box with fabric. This protects your collection from external energies without needing to individually wrap each stone.
The colour of the fabric can also make a difference. Black is a popular choice, as it absorbs all colours of the spectrum. Other people may choose the colour of an associated chakra or white for containing all wavelengths of visible light.
Try to avoid storing crystals near mobile phones and computers. This isn’t just for your crystal’s sake – it’s thought that hematite and lodestone can damage computer circuitry.
You can even store crystals in your garden. Some people bury their collection in flower pots or underground!

Final Thoughts

Your crystals are very sensitive, so when you handle them remember to do it with good intentions otherwise they can decide to throw out some negative energy.
