Crystals for grounding and connection

“When working with crystals, it's always best to keep it simple. Energy tip! Clear quartz and Black Tourmaline always work great as a pair, or (Black) Tourmalinated quartz, to ensure that your energy flow is grounded into the earth and connected to the heavens at the same time. If you don’t have either of these crystals, almost any clear, or light colored crystal, such as an apophyllite, herkimer or selenite pair well with a darker, brown, or black crystal. Onyx, shungite, jet, obsidian and even pyrite to name a few are great grounding and protective crystals. These energetic combinations will allow us to be more aware of our sense of groundedness and connection to receive messages, guidance and inspiration.” —Nina, Spirit Tour guide
