As the veil thins this week and we step into the dark beauty of Halloween, the energy turns inward.
It’s the season of intuition, transformation, and letting go — a time to honour what’s passed and call in what’s next. The air feels charged, and if you’re energy-sensitive, you’ll likely feel that pull between the seen and unseen.
This is where your crystals come in.
Here are my go-to stones for Halloween week — to help you stay grounded, protected, and open to the magic of the season:
Black Obsidian — Shadow Work + Protection
The ultimate mirror stone. Obsidian doesn’t mess about — it helps you face your truth, even the parts you’d rather ignore. It’s powerful for cutting energetic cords, releasing old fears, and keeping unwanted energy out of your space.
💭 Use it for: meditation, cord-cutting rituals, or keeping by your door to protect your home during Samhain.
Labradorite — Psychic Shield & Intuition
That flash of blue and gold? Pure magic. Labradorite strengthens your intuition and helps you stay open to spiritual guidance without getting overwhelmed. Think of it as a cloak of light protecting your aura while you connect with deeper energy.
💭 Use it for: divination, tarot, dreamwork, or whenever the energy feels “a bit much.”
Amethyst — Spirit Connection + Calm
Halloween isn’t just spooky — it’s spiritual. Amethyst opens the crown chakra, helping you connect with your higher self and loved ones in spirit, safely and gently. It’s also perfect for calming overactive energy and ensuring protection during intuitive work.
💭 Use it for: meditation, sleep support, or placing on your altar during your Samhain ritual.
Smoky Quartz — Grounding + Release
When energy runs wild, Smoky Quartz anchors you. It helps you release what no longer serves you — emotions, habits, or energy you’ve picked up from others. Perfect for grounding after ritual or a heavy emotional week.
💭 Use it for: carrying in your pocket, or holding during grounding meditation.
Carnelian — Courage + Vitality
Among all the shadow and introspection, don’t forget your spark. Carnelian reignites your life force — it’s a crystal for confidence, creativity, and courage to step boldly into the darker half of the year.
💭 Use it for: altar offerings, creative work, or whenever you need to remember your power.
Simple Halloween Crystal Ritual
On Halloween night (or any time this week), light a candle and sit quietly with your chosen stones.
Hold them in your hands and say:
“I release what’s behind me. I stand in my power. I welcome the wisdom of the dark.”
Take a deep breath and let the energy settle in your body.
This is your reset — your moment of grounding before the new season begins.
