Guardian: Protection and Strength

Why Protection Crystals Are Beneficial

Protection crystals serve as energetic shields, helping to block negative energies, promote a sense of security, and create safe personal and sacred spaces. They are especially helpful for those who feel drained by external influences, are sensitive to energy, or are navigating challenging environments. These crystals remind us to honor and maintain our boundaries, both energetically and emotionally.
