How to Supercharge Your Crystals

Simple Practices to Amplify Their Energy

Crystals are natural energy holders, and many people find that they bring a sense of balance, clarity, or calm. But just like we sometimes need rest or a reset, crystals can benefit from a little care to keep their energy clear and vibrant. That’s where charging, or what I like to call supercharging, comes in.

Supercharging your crystals is a way of refreshing their energy so that they can support you fully. Think of it as giving them a reset so they’re ready to work with you again. Here are some of the simplest and most effective ways to do it.

Sunlight

Placing your crystals in natural sunlight is a powerful way to charge them. The warmth and brightness of the sun can energise crystals and bring a fresh boost to their vibrations. Just remember that some crystals, like Amethyst or Rose Quartz, can fade if left in direct sunlight for too long, so a few hours is usually enough.

Moonlight

The light of the moon, especially during the full moon, is another favourite. Moonlight carries a softer, more reflective energy than sunlight, making it ideal for calming or intuitive stones like Selenite, Moonstone or Amethyst. Simply place your crystals on a windowsill or outside overnight.

Running Water

Water is cleansing and grounding. Holding your crystal under running water (natural spring water is best, but tap water works too) can wash away stagnant energy. Always check whether your crystal is water-safe before doing this, as some are porous or delicate.

Smudging with Sage or Palo Santo

The smoke from sage or Palo Santo has been used for centuries in cleansing rituals. Wafting your crystal through the smoke can clear away any heavy or stuck energy. This is especially useful for stones that are used to absorb negativity, like Black Tourmaline or Smoky Quartz.

Crystal Grids

Placing your crystal within a grid of other stones can amplify its energy. Clear Quartz is often used in the centre of a grid as an energy booster. Arranging crystals in geometric patterns creates a flow that supercharges the whole set.

Intention Setting

One of the most important ways to charge your crystals is with your own intention. Hold the crystal in your hand, close your eyes, and focus on what you want it to support you with. Visualise that energy flowing into the stone. Your intention is what connects you to the crystal, and this step can make all the difference.

Sound

Sound vibrations can also supercharge crystals. Using tuning forks, singing bowls, or even clapping your hands over your stones can shift their frequency and clear stagnant energy. This is one of my favourite methods, as sound is such a big part of the energy healing work I do.

Final Thoughts...

There’s no right or wrong way to supercharge your crystals. The most important part is choosing a method that feels right for you. Whether it’s the warmth of the sun, the calm of the moon, the flow of water, or simply setting an intention, these practices can help your crystals stay clear and supportive.

Crystals work best when they’re cared for, just like we do. By giving them a little attention, you’ll find they give even more back. And if you’d like to explore crystal healing in a deeper way, my energy and sound healing sessions also weave crystals into the process to support mind, body, and spirit.
