This crystal could be great for you if you feel that you’ve been weighed down by a lot of negative energy lately.

• Grounding

• Calming
• Intuition

These associations are what Smoky Quartz is revered for. If you feel that you’ve been experiencing a lot of anxiety or are just looking to start incorporating more calming practices into your life Smoky Quartz is a great crystal to start with. 

Smoky Quartz is also aligned with the root chakra. When out of alignment, you might be feeling unbalanced or unstable. Smoky Quartz is believed to help with realigning the root chakra.

Removing Negative Energy From Smoky Quartz

Crystals in general are susceptible to the energies in their surrounding environments. This means that during shipping and handling, your spinner might come into contact with some negative energy. Engaging in any of the following methods can help to cleanse your crystal and recharge it with positive energy. 

The first method of cleansing you can try is washing your spinner with water and a tiny amount of soap. You can use the water from the tap for this. Make sure that your spinner is completely dry before using it. You can either let it air dry or you can use a soft, clean cloth to dry it. 

Another method of cleansing is to smudge it with sage. Sage is a popular herb that is known for cleansing crystals. 

Another method you might try is charging it with a clear quartz. Place your spinner next to clear quartz for a few hours and your Smoky Quartz will be charged with positive energy. 

Since Smoky Quartz is known for removing negative energy, it will need to be cleansed more often than typical crystals. You will want to engage with one of these methods when you feel that you’ve come into contact with a lot of negative energy lately or if you notice it starting to get dirty or cloudy in appearance.

Using Smoky Quartz for Energy Cleansing

Once your spinner is charged with positive energy, it’s time to start putting it to use. 

Before you move onto the next steps you will want to check with yourself to see if you have any lingering doubts about the crystal’s ability to heal. Any skepticism on your part might hinder your spinner’s abilities. 

Now that you’ve worked through any doubts you had, you will want to set a specific intention related to the healing properties and associations mentioned earlier in this post. The intention will help guide your crystal through your intended usage. 

For Smoky Quartz, you might consider setting an intention of maintaining good health and a sound mind. You could also try setting an intention of guiding you through tough times ahead and deflecting negative energy you regularly come into contact with. 

After you’ve decided what your intention will be, hold the spinner in your hands and speak that intention into it. This helps charge the crystal with your intended goal. When you wear your Smoky Quartz ring, keep your intention in mind and make decisions that align with it.
