Guide to Crystal Sprays and Their Benefits

Working with healing crystals helps us on our journey toward inner peace, prosperity, and spiritual enlightenment. But did you know that you can create crystal sprays with your favorite stones to boost and amplify their benefits? Today, we will learn how to make crystal sprays and discover how they can enhance your life. 

So, what are crystal sprays? Are crystal sprays safe?

Crystal sprays are easy to make at home and allow you to infuse water with your intentions and the metaphysical powers of your chosen gemstone. Perfect for beginner and experienced spiritualists alike, these creations are used for a variety of purposes, such as protection, cleansing, and manifestation. They are safe as long as you use non-toxic crystals that are suitable for water. 

What are Crystal Sprays?

Crystal sprays work by infusing water with the powers of crystals, herbs, essential oils, and your intentions to create a mixture you can use time and time again. They are potent spiritual tools, and you can incorporate a range of stones and ingredients into your spray to make it perfect for you and your needs. 

Creating a crystal spray is a ritual, as it works with your energy to boost the metaphysical powers of the ingredients. You need to take time to identify your intention for creating the spray and pick the suitable stones and ingredients to use. 

Once the crystal spray is created, you can spray it in your home or on you to boost energy, be protected, and enhance your manifesting abilities. Because the liquid is infused with strong metaphysical powers, these sprays last a long time, and you can turn to them whenever you need their help. 

How to Make Crystal Sprays

So, how do you make a crystal spray to suit your spiritual and emotional needs? Planning is essential here! Decide what you want from your crystal spray and explore how the metaphysical properties of stones, herbs, and essential oils can help you with your intentions. 

Let’s look at our step-by-step guide for creating crystal sprays to inspire you!

Step 1: Collect Ingredients

First, you must determine what ingredients are associated with your intention and collect them. You will need distilled water and a spray bottle, but then you can get pretty creative with your crystal spray!

When deciding what crystals to put in your spray, make sure you pick water-safe and non-toxic stones. Certain crystals may leak toxic substances, rust, or dissolve in water, so always check beforehand. 

Essential oils, herbs, and flowers can be placed in your crystal spray to enhance your intentions and the metaphysical powers of the crystal. Find ingredients associated with the purpose of your crystal spray. For example, if you are creating a cleansing crystal spray, adding sage essential oil will boost its potency. 

Step 2: Choose a Place

Now that you have your ingredients, it is time to decide where you will create your crystal spray. Your altar or spiritual workbench is the perfect place for making your sprays, but it is okay if you don’t have one! As long as it is somewhere you feel calm, undisturbed, and centered, it is up to you where you create them. 

Step 3: Cleanse Your Crystals and Space

Cleansing is an essential step in any spiritual ritual. By cleansing your space and crystals, any negative or unwanted energy is removed, and you can charge your crystal spray with your chosen intention. 

How you cleanse your space and crystals is personal to you. Some people like to burn sage and hold their crystals in the smoke, whereas others cleanse their space and stones with music or chanting. If you are new on your spiritual journey, experiment with different cleansing techniques to find the one that fits your style. 

Step 4: Add Ingredients

There are two ways you can infuse your water with the crystal’s energy, and these methods are called direct and indirect. The direct method refers to placing the crystal in the water and keeping it submerged for a certain period of time, and the indirect method is where you place your crystal next to the water to infuse it with its energy. The latter method is excellent for crystals that may be damaged with water. 

As the crystal is charging the water, add your other ingredients while repeating your intention for the crystal spray. Then leave it to brew. How long you leave your crystal spray to brew is up to you, but make sure you are considering the gemstones you are using. Some stones are only suitable to be submerged in water for short periods of time. 

When ready, remove the crystal and pour the water into the spray bottle. Repeat your intention through chanting, visualization, or meditation as you do this. 

Step 5: Shake, Seal, and Use

Once your charged water is in your spray bottle, seal the top and shake the mixture to activate it. Now you have your crystal spray ready for use!

So, what are the different ways you can use a crystal spray? It totally depends on why you created it and what you want to gain from it. You may want to spray it around your home for cleansing or protection or to spray it on yourself. 

Remember to store your crystal spray somewhere safe, such as your altar or spiritual tool shelf. You don’t want to knock it over, so ensure it is away from pets and children. The mixture will last a long time, but if you haven’t used it for six or so months, give it a little boost and reconnect your energy with it through meditation, affirmations, or chanting. 

When to Use Crystal Sprays? 7 Benefits

Now that you know how to create crystal sprays, let’s look at the different sprays you can make and their benefits to give you a little bit of inspiration!

Protective Crystal Spray

Opt for a Smoky Quartz, Black Obsidian, or Bloodstone crystal when making a protective crystal spray. These three powerful protection crystals are water-safe, so you can use the direct method when creating a crystal spray with them. Add basil, rosemary, or sage to this crystal spray, as these herbs are known to repel negative energy. 

Once you have made your protective crystal spray, use it in your home to keep your space safe. You may also wish to spray your wrists with the mixture before leaving the house and traveling. 

Love Spray

A love spray can be used to promote self-love or enhance romantic relationships. Use a Rose Quartz or Unakite crystal for this spray, as these stones open up the Heart Chakra to boost feelings of compassion, connection, and romance. You may also add rose petals or jasmine essential oil to your love spray to enhance its power.

If you are using this spray for self-love, spray it around your bathroom before a self-care ritual bath or spray it on you before gratitude journaling. You can also spray it on you before going on a date or seeing your partner. 

Purifier Spray

Crystal sprays are fantastic for cleansing, especially if you prefer not to light candles or burn herbs for safety reasons. Opt for a Clear Quartz for your purifier spray, as this crystal is water-safe and promotes cleansing and renewal. You may also want to add essential oils connected to purification, such as rosemary and eucalyptus. 

Once you have created your purifier spray, you can use it to cleanse your home by spraying it in all four corners of every room.

Manifestation Crystal Spray 

To create a manifestation crystal spray, use a crystal associated with your intention. For example, Rose Quartz is perfect for love manifestation sprays, whereas Tiger’s Eye stone is more suitable for career manifestation sprays. There are also fantastic herbs that boost abundance and success, such as basil and ginger, that can be added to the spray.

You can use your manifestation crystal spray during manifestation rituals to amplify your intentions. Spray it in your home, around your altar, or on you to enhance your abilities. 

Wealth Crystal Spray

If you want to manifest wealth with your crystal spray, use a gemstone associated with abundance and prosperity, such as Citrine and Green Aventurine. Add in essential oils and herbs connected to financial gain, such as bay leaves and cinnamon. 

Give your purse a few sprays of your wealth mixture to bring prosperity into your life. 

Focus Spray

Crystal sprays can help you focus when you are working or studying. Clear Quartz and Citrine relieve mental fog and enhance your thinking skills, so they are perfect to use when creating a focus spray. Essential oils, such as peppermint and lemon, boost focus and productivity and can be incorporated into this crystal spray. 

Have your focus spray on your desk and spray your room when you need a little boost!

Dreamwork Crystal Spray

A crystal spray can help you expand your connection to the dream world and develop your understanding of your dreams. Crystals associated with the Third Eye Chakra and the subconsciousness, such as Amethyst and Moonstone, are perfect for dreamwork crystal sprays. You may also wish to add herbs connected with dreams and spiritual awareness, such as mugwort and valerian root. 

Spray some of your dreamwork crystal spray on your pillow and in your bedroom before going to sleep to enhance your connection to the dream world.
