Crystals and the Vedic tradition
Crystal healing as it is practised today is a modern tradition, not a teaching of the classical Jyotish texts. Some stones do have a classical link: sphatik (clear quartz) is used for malas and yantras, and several crystals are upratna, the substitute stones of a planet, such as amethyst for Shani, citrine for Guru and moonstone for Chandra. We describe each stone by its traditional association and do not make health claims.

Frequently asked questions
Are healing crystals part of Vedic astrology?
Mostly not. Crystal healing is a modern practice. Some stones are upratna of a planet, such as amethyst for Shani and citrine for Guru, and those carry a Jyotish link.
Which crystal is good for the home?
Clear quartz and amethyst are popular for living spaces and meditation corners, and pyrite is often kept near a desk or cash counter.
Can selenite be washed?
No. Selenite is soft and dissolves in water, so clean it with a dry cloth only.
What is a crystal pyramid used for?
In Vastu practice a pyramid is placed in a room or zone to support it. A small crystal pyramid is also kept on a desk as a focal point.
How do I choose a crystal?
Choose by your intention first, then by the form that suits where you will keep it. If you want a stone linked to your chart, ask for one of the upratna of your rashi lord.
