Here are the best starter crystals for empaths

Amethyst is one of the amazing crystals for empaths

Amethyst is an incredible calming stone, which is good for an empath. Empath's thrive in calm environments. Amethyst are also excellent stones for increasing one's intuition. Associated with the upper chakras ( third eye & crown ), this will allow the empath to learn how to trust in their own intuition ( a big lesson for empaths ), gifts and discern what is theirs and what is not.

Mugglestone/ Tiger iron

I giggled the first time I heard the name of this stone, it came through to me during a meditation session so I immediately thought about Harry Potter and had to check to see if there really was such a stone. Mugglestone is amazing for grounding and those who tend to get extremely fatigued after being around others. It helps calm scattered energy and is associated with the lower chakras.

Rose Quartz

Rose quartz is another stone that is incredibly calming. This was one of the first stones I began to work with. It is the stone of Mother Mary and is associated with the heart chakra & unconditional love. Since learning how to love and accept one's self/honor one's heart is a crucial lesson for the empath, this stone is in my top 5 stones that are essential for empaths.

Blue Quartz

Blue Quartz is a stress relieving stone. It assists in calming an overactive mind, inspires hope and alleviates fear. This stone is associated with the throat chakra and can help aid with organizational & self discipline

Obsidian is one of the very best crystals for empaths

I honestly do not know what I would do without my obsidian. I own a very large piece and at times, I have sat it on my chest or held it in my palm during meditation just to ground myself well. It is my first go to ( along with my hematite which is in the mugglestone listed above ) stone when I need some serious grounding and feel overwhelmed. Associated with the root chakra, this stone helps alleviates fear and will help the empath to feel stable during times of overwhelm.

I hope the information above helps support you on your journey. Along with setting proper boundaries, discernment and shielding, these little and sometimes big guys will truly help.

These 5 crystals for empaths that can worn or held during meditation, whatever feels right for you. Not only will you love the way they feel, but just simply looking down or knowing your crystals are with you, will remind you on a conscious level what it is that you are working on internally as well, allowing for a mindset shift.

Sending you guys so much love & light,
