before crystals are used for healing or any mystical purpose, they should be cleansed ritually by salt water & incense. Timing is essential to the type of healing that you wish to do. Be sure that if you are working to remove sickness (such as cancer chronic pain, reduce inflammation etc) that you charge the crystal with healing energy during the waning moon, full moonto new moon. If you are working to promote wellness, increase energy, etc work (charge the crystals)during the waxing moon (new to full). Quartz is a good all purpose stone, amythest, rose quartz & rutilated quartz are also helpful. Pick up Love is in the earth: Kalidescope of crystals by melody to learn about different properties of different stones.
By "charging the crystals" I mean to empower them with healing energy. it can be done realtively easily
Ground & center yourself

I use crystals all of the time.
There are two books you need.
"The Crystal Bible" Judy Hall
"Live Is In The Earth: A Kaleidoscope Of Crystals" Melody
These books gives you lots of information about assorted crystals.
I used to think it was all hooey too until I personaly experienced benefits from carrying an amethyst in my pokect, and placing another amethyst under my pillow.
It took about two years; but I was able to go off medication when the doctor told me that I would have to take the meds for the rest of my life!
Crystals work slowly and at a subtle level; but they DO work.

There is a site (link below) which gives an overview on most common (and some uncommon) stones & crystals.
I personally wear tanzanite, turquoise, green amber and carry crystals and moonstone everywhere.
You can also read Cunningham's Encyclopedia of Crystal, Gem & Metal Magic by Scott Cunningham. (Link to book at Amazon below)
