Please keep in mind, the crystals listed can be used for MORE than I have listed, and not all the correspondents I have listed will work for you. You will need to listen to the energy it gives off and listen to your intuition. Practice and take notes! You may find that you may never need any of these because they will not work in your practice as they do with others. Journal everything! Bond with them, get to know their energy. They will aid you in your journey one way or another.
