Crystal Grid for Manifesting Love and Happiness

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Texas chapter.

Drawing on the ancient art of sacred geometry, crystal gridding can help connect us with the energies of harmony and manifestation. Sacred geometry symbolizes oneness and is expressed through the underlying shapes and patterns that compose all living things in the universe. Working with sacred geometry offers a channel through which to connect with the source of creation, allowing for humble reflection and a heightened state of self-awareness. When we understand our place in the world and can act on this from a point of authenticity and compassion, we may work towards creating moments of love and happiness that radiate outwards and honor patterns of connection rather than going against them.

To amplify intentions of love and happiness, I recommend working with any of the following stones when crystal gridding. These gentle pinks and pastels resonate with the heart center, providing tools for healing and growth.

 

♥Rhodonite: promotes compassion and forgiveness while combatting self-destructive tendencies. Working with rhodonite assists in healing past traumas and can inspire the journey towards your highest self and highest good.

♥Pink Lithium Quartz: aids in emotional balance and relaxation. The naturally occurring lithium within this quartz acts as a powerful antidepressant, helping to combat anxieties while addressing grief with love and patience.

♥Sunstone: the stone of happiness and leadership! Sunstone inspires warmth, abundance, and clarity, inviting us to nurture our inner selves so that we may go on to serve others with joy and generosity.   

♥Morganite: exudes a soothing, yet high-vibrational energy. Working with morganite attracts love and meaningful action, allowing us to revel in the joy and beauty of all living things with respect and honor.

♥Cinnabar: a powerful stone for manifesting abundance and divine connection. Cinnabar inspires us to engage with community work, honoring the source of life through strength and kindness. (Warning: Cinnabar does contain toxic minerals, so be sure to wash your hands after handling and do not touch your eyes or mouth while working with this stone).

♥Rose Quartz: the stone of universal love! Rose Quartz promotes harmony and peace, purifying the emotional body through deep inner healing, unconditional love, and trust.   

♥Mangano Calcite: stimulates the flow of energy in the body, helping to dissipate stagnant and negative emotions. Inviting Mangano Calcite into your practice can assist with self-confidence and compassion, stimulating divine love and understanding towards both yourself and others.

♥Ocean Jasper: induces feelings of tranquility and hopefulness. One of my all-time favorite stones, Ocean Jasper encourages us to take responsibility for our actions while simultaneously addressing unresolved emotions. This inspires unconditional self-love and empathy towards others, making Ocean Jasper a powerful companion for alleviating harm and stimulating emotional healing.

As a gentle reminder, working with crystals and sacred geometry is not a cure all, and must be substantiated with meaningful action and conscious insight. It is my belief that these tools can assist in guiding such actions and insights, providing a mindful practice through which to reflect on purpose. I hope these suggestions assist your spiritual practice, and that we can use the knowledge of healing to harness connection in our day-to-day lives!
