Top 5 Crystals for Macrame Jewelry & Their Meanings
Weaving Meaning Into Every Knot: Discover the Best Crystals to Weave into Your Spirit-led Jewelry
Top 5 Crystals to Use in Macrame Jewelry (and Their Meanings)
Since 2013, I’ve been creating and selling macrame crystal jewelry—each piece handcrafted with love, purpose, and energy. Over the years, I’ve noticed patterns in which crystals people gravitate toward, and why. In this post, I’ll share my personal insights into the top 5 crystals I use most often in my micromacrame creations, along with tips for wrapping them and their deeper meanings.
Whether you're a beginner learning the knots or a seasoned artist wanting to deepen your crystal knowledge, these stones are must-haves for your creative journey.
1. Amethyst – The Consciousness Elevator
Almost everyone starts their crystal journey with Amethyst, Rose Quartz, or Clear Quartz. Amethyst, in particular, has a special role—it works on raising the collective consciousness of humanity. Even if someone doesn’t intentionally buy it, chances are there’s a piece of Amethyst nearby—in their home or someone else’s.
Why it works in macrame: Amethyst’s rich purple color is instantly recognizable and beloved. When wrapping Amethyst, I recommend keeping the raw point visible—it’s visually striking and energetically powerful, making it a favorite at markets.
2. Rose Quartz – The Heart Healer
This stone is all about self love, self worth, self healing, self forgiveness, and unconditional love. Once these qualities are embodied within, Rose Quartz reflects them outward into the world around you.
Perfect for:
• Gifting to mothers (Mother’s Day must-have!)
• Children’s keepsakes
• Self-care rituals
I’ve sold thousands of simple Rose Quartz macrame basket wraps at just $15, to adults and kids alike.
3. Labradorite – The Flash of Magic
This is a showstopper. The flash in Labradorite—ranging from blue to gold to green—catches the eye of anyone walking by my market stall. It sells fast every time.
Known as:
• The Stone of Magic
• A psychic shield for those awakening intuitive abilities
• A stone of synchronicity, helping you be in the right place at the right time for the right reason
Wrapping tip: Always position the flash to be front and center—it truly “winks” at the right people. I like to say, “It only flashes for the nice ones.”
4. Moonstone – The Feminine Guide
Moonstone holds the energy of new beginnings. It brings awareness to cycles and enhances your inner knowing. This is the stone I recommend for anyone wanting to deepen their intuition or reconnect with feminine energy.
Why people love it: Like Labradorite, Moonstone has a beautiful flash—soft, subtle, and deeply mystical. It belongs to the same feldspar family as Sunstone and Iolite.
5. Larimar – The Dolphin Stone
Larimar holds a deep connection to the element of water—oceans, lakes, rain, rivers, and even our own bodies. It’s also linked to Lemurian and Atlantean energies, as well as the songs of dolphins and whales.
Originally, I didn’t work with Larimar much due to its cost. But I quickly learned that customers are more than willing to pay for its beauty and rarity when it’s wrapped with intention.
Top-selling crystal at markets: Every Larimar piece I bring to a market sells. My favorite macrame cord colors for wrapping it are CorPalha and Cor879.
Final Thoughts
Each crystal carries its own vibration, and when paired with the art of macrame, it becomes more than just jewelry—it becomes a talisman, a guide, a piece of Earth magic woven with soul. Whether you’re selling your creations or making them for your own sacred practice, these 5 crystals are beautiful allies to begin with.

Crystals for Protection: Elevating Your Energy Beyond Fear
Discover the unseen magic of grounding, shielding, and soaring into light with crystal wisdom.
Crystals for Protection – Not What You Might Think
When most people think of crystals for protection, black tourmaline often springs to mind. It’s a powerful ally, no doubt, strengthening your energy field by continuously fortifying the torus field—the spiraling flow of energy that surrounds you. Black tourmaline not only strengthens all layers of your energetic body, but it also deepens your connection to the Earth Star, anchoring you firmly to the Earth and supporting you through this human journey in your current incarnation.
But what if we expanded the conversation beyond just black tourmaline?
The Allies of Protection
• Garnet – This radiant red stone embodies self-empowerment, igniting the inner fire that fuels confidence and resilience.
• Dravite (Brown Tourmaline) – Dravite connects you to the ancient earth caves, grounding you in a primal stability that feels like a deep, earthy embrace.
• Red Jasper – Think of it as your best friend, offering constant encouragement with a gentle hand on your shoulder. Red Jasper connects the Root Chakra to the Earth Star, reinforcing your presence and resilience.
• Amethyst – The violet flame of spiritual protection and purification, amethyst clears non-beneficial addictions and spiritual thought forms. It raises your consciousness and, in my view, carries one of the most important roles in the crystal realm: elevating humanity’s collective awareness.
• Labradorite – This shimmering stone provides psychic shielding when you’re first stepping into the subtle realms, helping you navigate with clarity while you develop your intuition, whether through clairaudience, clairvoyance, clairsentience, or tools like tarot and pendulums.
Each of these crystals contributes to grounding, shielding, and anchoring your energy into the body. They’re the essential toolkit for energy protection, especially when it comes to deflecting unwanted entities or influences. They empower you to stand strong in your authentic self.
Beyond the Usual Protection Stones
When people visit my market stalls in search of protection stones, these are often the first I recommend. However, while these crystals are powerful, they don’t make you invisible to disruptive energies—they strengthen your field, but entities can still “tap, tap, tap” at your boundaries, waiting for a moment of vulnerability.
That’s where Selenite changes the game.
Selenite: The Subtle Shift
Selenite doesn’t just reinforce your outer energy field—it fortifies your hara line. This thin, luminous cord runs through the center of your being, connecting you from the core of the Earth (your Earth Star) all the way to the Source of creation through your Soul Self. By aligning with the frequency of Selenite, your hara line expands, allowing you to stand fully in the Light that connects Earth, Self, and Source.
As you attune more deeply to Selenite, your vibration rises to such a high level that lower vibrations—what I affectionately call the “yuckies”—simply don’t see you. Instead of battling these energies on the metaphorical “bedroom floor,” you elevate to the “bedroom ceiling,” where these lower energies don’t even look.
My Story with Selenite
Before my twins were born in January 2020, I lived solo in a two-bedroom apartment in Coolum Beach, where I taught meditation workshops, facilitated healings, and practiced as a crystal healer. Selenite became my sanctuary. I gridded my entire home—placing it on windowsills, doorframes, room corners, and around the healing bed. I used it in workshops, healings, and channelings. My space became a temple of light, healing, and humility.
Today, as a talisman creator and light language channel, I still embrace the grounding stones. Many of my channelings call for garnet, black tourmaline, dravite, and more to anchor specific frequencies. And I still wholeheartedly recommend them for others on their healing journeys.
But almost every time, I suggest pairing these stones with Selenite.
This humble, luminous gift from the Earth is simple, inexpensive, and profound. For me, Selenite is the crystal that encompasses all-round protection and beyond.
The End Note
In a world of shifting energies and unseen whispers, protection isn’t just about building walls; it’s about rising higher, aligning deeper, and embracing the luminous strength of your soul. Crystals like black tourmaline, garnet, and red jasper offer grounding and shielding—but Selenite invites you to dance in the light, to embody the vibration where lower energies can no longer reach.
May you walk this Earth anchored, radiant, and unseen to the “yuckies,” carried by the crystalline wisdom of the ancients.
