I use a variety of stones for different reasons. I have large spheres of quartz, citrine, agate, red quartz and apatite that I have given as "gifts" to my deities. As they are "gifts" I do not use them for personal gain--I only use them to honor those deities and feel closer to them.
I also have a sphere of obsidian that I use for scrying, a red quartz point that I like to use for the energy it emits, and several pieces of amber that I wear because it seems to bring me more in tune with my true nature---whatever that is. I have a necklace of amber that hangs from the mirror in my car, I keep it there for protection and as a way to reach out at any time and say a prayer. When I reach out and tough it, it is like reaching out for my deities. At one time I used hematite for this and it worked well for many years. I have an aventurine stone that I use for good luck. This isn't a stone that I initially felt drawn to but it seemed to be drawn to me (hard to explain). I feel good when I have it around and it seems to bring me luck---sort of like when one wears their "lucky" shirt.
I use stones alot in my life. The shape of the stone matters to me too. I like the symbolism of a sphere--to me it represents a balance and has a softer energy than a point.
My favorite book on stones is "Love Is in the Earth: A Kaleidoscope of Crystals" by Melody. It is a wonderful reference guide and I highly recommend it.

It's time for you to start reading. People study for years to learn how and why of spiritual tools. If you are serious about learning then you will have to amass a large library on the related topics and find a mentor.

I carry a quartz crystal on my wrist. It gives me a strong sense of temporal transience and facilitates my passing from one calenderic state to another. I find that I am maintained in a state of equilibrium which allows me to complete all I need on each day. Without it I am insecure and irritated and just don't seem to know what time of day it is!.
With it I get a feeling of inner contentment and peace.
I chose quartz because of its natural period of oscillation which makes it totally reliable.
Try it - hope this helps!

according to some, all minerals, gems, stones and some metals have powers, depending on its characteristics. my preference is natural quartz. the power sometimes feels like a mild electric shock

I've been using aqua aura lately, because I noticed it in a store and I liked the color. I hold it in my hand, and I feel more relaxed when I hold it. You can also use crystals for Chakra balancing.
