Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you wish to know about authentic crystals, Varanasi consecrations, daily rituals, domestic & global shipping, and our sacred transit guarantees.
We encourage trusting your spontaneous intuition! In the mineral kingdom, the piece that instinctively catches your eye, evokes a gentle curiosity, or sparks warmth in your solar plexus is often the resonance your subtle body is seeking.
You can also choose based on specific intentions:
- Wealth & Abundance: Pyrite, Golden Citrine, Green Aventurine
- Protection & Shielding: Black Tourmaline, Obsidian, Tiger's Eye, Hematite
- Love & Emotional Harmony: Rose Quartz, Rhodonite, Kunzite
- Peace & Anxiety Relief: Amethyst, Howlite, Lepidolite, Blue Lace Agate

Yes, unequivocally. Every single specimen, wrist mala bead, and raw crystal in our sanctuary is 100% geologically genuine, earth-mined, and unheated. We never sell reconstituted glass, synthetic resins, or chemically dyed powders.
Because our crystals are natural creations of the earth formed over millions of years, minor inclusions, natural phantom veining, and micro-crystallizations are natural hallmarks of authenticity. Every order includes an Authenticity Certificate.
Our studio is located along the ancient spiritual banks of Varanasi (Kashi). Prior to packaging, each piece is brought into our sanctum where it undergoes:
- Physical Purification: Gentle misting with consecrated Gangajal (sacred Ganges holy water) to dissolve accumulated stagnant dust.
- Vibrational Clearing: Sound attunement using Tibetan singing bowls and Vedic chanting frequencies.
- Prana Activation: Smoke cleansing with pure white sage and sacred sambrani resin.
When your parcel arrives, it arrives energetically cleared and ready to be dedicated to your personal altar, wrist, or meditation corner.
Regular cleansing ensures your crystals remain vibrant and responsive to your intentions. We recommend:
- Moonlight Bathing: Place your stones near a windowsill or outdoors during the Full Moon to absorb lunar luminescence. Safe for all crystals!
- Smoke Cleansing: Pass your piece through incense, palo santo, or sage smoke for 30–60 seconds.
- Sound Cleansing: Ring a bell, chime, or singing bowl over your crystal altar.
- Water Warning: While quartz, amethyst, and jasper can be gently rinsed with cool water, never immerse soft or copper-rich minerals like Selenite, Pyrite, Malachite, or Lepidolite in water.
Yes, you can harmonize multiple crystals! We recommend grouping stones that share complementary intentions—for example, pairing Black Tourmaline with Pyrite creates both strong energetic shielding and grounded prosperity.
Wrist Guidance: As a general practice in Vedic crystal tradition, wear bracelets on your left wrist to receive internal energy, intuition, and calm; wear on your right wrist to project action, protection, confidence, and manifest external goals.
