Here is a way to attune yourself to your Crystals or Gemstones :-
After cleansing your crystal or gemstone, hold it in your hands and look at its detail, note the colour, shape, size and any marks or indentations or any other physical characteristics of your stone, really get to know your crystal or gem stone from a visual perspective.
Next place your crystal in your dominant hand the one you normally write with, and send it love you can also imagine a pink bubble of love surrounding your crystal.
Now place your crystal in your non dominant hand which is also know as the 'receptive hand' this is the hand you receive impressions. Hold your crystal and close your eyes, concentrate on the crystal in your hand and notice any feelings, thoughts, images or any other impressions you may receive.
Even if you do not receive any impressions at this moment its okay just by simply holding your crystal in your receptive hand you are forming a connection between you and your crystal or gemstone.
