How To Use Crystals For Your Car
Here are the best ways to use crystals for your car.
Put Them It In Your Car
The most straightforward way to use crystals in your car is to place them somewhere central in the vehicle. You can do this by hanging a crystal charm on the mirror or placing it somewhere safe on the dashboard. This is a great option for everyday travel to school or work if you’re a generally cautious driver.
Spray Crystal-infused Water
If you don’t like having things in your car, you can also spray crystal-infused water around it to keep it safe. You can do this by filling a spray bottle up with water and placing a crystal in the bottom of it.
Leave it overnight, and then spray it around your car. It may help to recite a protective affirmation to set your intention and envision a protective light surrounding the car. Before you make crystal-infused water, double-check that your crystal is water-safe.
Every crystal is different, so be sure to look up the Mohs hardness scale score of your gemstone. This scientific scale ranks the hardness of a mineral out of ten by testing its resistance against others. If it scores over a 6 it’s safe to use with water.
Wear Crystal Jewelry
Another way that you can use crystals in your car is by wearing crystals to keep you safe on your travel – this is a great option for particularly big trips or when you’re a passenger in somebody else’s car.
Cleansing & Charging
We recommend cleansing and charging your crystals to keep them vibrating at a high level and avoid danger. Many crystals are energetically absorbent, so if they’re with you on a daily basis on your work commute or on large trips you’re particularly anxious about – they could pick up some bad energy, which isn’t great for the car.
So, cleanse them once a month to dispel any bad vibes by placing them in the moonlight on the night of the full moon. You can also smudge them with sage, place them in salt or salt-water, run them under the tap, or place them on a cleansing plate.
You should also charge them to fill them back up with good energy by placing them in the sunlight or burying them in the Earth. The moonlight and sunlight methods are easiest, and if you plan on leaving your crystals in your car, you won’t have to do anything but leave them where they are.
Other Ways To Protect Your Car
Other ways that you can protect the energy of your car aside from crystals include using purifying and protective herbs like thyme and sage or essential oils like Frankincense, spritzing some salt water around the inside or outside of it, or playing some cleansing sound bath whilst you drive.
You can also use your own spiritual power by setting an intention with your car or asking for divine protection from spirits. Using these methods alongside crystals will create extra protection around your car.
