Crystal identification might seem like a difficult thing if you’re new to the big world of crystals - but don’t worry, we’re here to help! Maybe you received an extra crystal with your online order and were confused about what it is, or maybe you randomly picked up a crystal that you felt a pull towards and want to find out more about it! Maybe someone gifted you crystals!

If the crystal you want to learn about came in an online order, you could try checking out the website you ordered from. They most likely have a page on their website that lists all the crystals they sell, as well as what they look like, what they’re good for, and what they can be used for.

If you can’t find a page like that, google it! You can easily find charts and pages that detail all kinds of crystals. From looking at the pictures, you can identify what crystal you have; if you can’t pinpoint the exact type and feel like the one you have is similar to two or three different ones, check out the properties of the crystal listed. The formations, hues, appearance, and kind of finish it has will usually point you in the direction of the right crystal.

If you’re unfamiliar with a stone you recently bought, you should definitely try to find out and identify what type of crystal you’ve got. By doing this you can learn its many benefits, and you’ll also find out the many different ways that you can use it every day.
