Crystal energy grids are one of the most powerful tools for amplifying intention, manifestation, and energetic focus. But most people never learn how to use them effectively.

In this episode of Spirit Sherpa, Kelle Sparta and Jules explore how crystal energy grids work, how to build one, how to choose crystals for different intentions, and why clarity of intention is more important than the crystals themselves. Kelle shares practical guidance on creating grids for business growth, love, protection, health, and personal transformation while explaining the energetic mechanics behind why crystal grids can be such powerful manifestation tools.

Whether you're new to crystals or already have a growing collection, this episode offers a grounded, practical framework for working with crystal energy intentionally and effectively.

Hey, y'all, and welcome to Spirit Sherpa, the show that helps and encourages you on your journey to unlock your magic mojo. If you're new to this type of work, we suggest you start with episode one. If you're further along in your journey, well, you can jump over to episode 98. And if you are already a spiritual practitioner and teacher, well, just fast-forward to episode 200, um, and that'll get you on your way.

So with me, as always, to share her insights and wisdom is the spirit doctor herself, Kelle Sparta. Hi, Kelle. How are you? Hey, Jules. I'm good. How are you? I'm doing good. Still running around like a chicken with my head cut off, but, you know, in the spiritual world, I guess that's normal. Not so much, but okay.

Not so much, but okay. I was thinking chicken, like, ritual, and I'm like- ... yeah, that... it's, uh- It's okay ... it was funnier in my head. Okay. Yeah. Well, you know, Kathy has her story about the- the- the shadow cows and the chickens of light, but, you know, you'll have to ask her about that story. I- I will. I will. I will.

So yeah. So, uh, today, we're gonna talk about crystal energy grids. Crystal energy grids. Yes, I can talk really. Yeah. So- so, you know, this is good for whether you're dealing with your personal life or your business or anything at all, right? So let's talk about what a grid is. So a crystal energy grid is the thing that helps you to hold an energetic, and it powers the energetic.

So you're- you're connecting the crystals into an energetic grid pattern that allows them to fuel the energy of the intention that you've set at the center of the grid, okay? So what that means is that you're gonna start off with a bunch of crystals, okay? You need a bunch of crystals for this. And when I say a bunch, you know, y- I would say you need between, you know, seven and 15 crystals for this.

Um, you can do more if you want, uh, but, you know, anything above and beyond that is a little overkill. But what you wanna do is, ideally, these are points, okay? Not blobs or rounds or eggs or- Not tumbles or- ... balls or temples Okay. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Ideally, these are points. I mean, you can use, uh, temples or, uh, things like that if you want, but the challenge is that you want things to be pointed towards the goal, okay?

The pointed towards the intention in the center. And so points are the easiest to do that with because you can just line them up all facing with the point towards the center, and now you've got all the energy going towards that center point which is where you're putting the intention. Okay? Okay. So I'm gonna have my- Now- I'm gonna have my crystal in the middle of the grid So you will have a crystal in the middle of the grid which ideally will be a- a, uh, solid, you know, like, not just a single point but, like, a- a piece of crystal with point, with a point coming off of it Or a tower or a, or your pyramid could go there too, right?

So you want something that has upward movement to it because it's sending it out to the universe, right? So you want a crystal that has that sort of configuration that brings things out towards the universe. Okay? And then you'll take your intention and you'll write it on a piece of paper, and you'll stick it underneath the center crystal Okay?

And that's, that's the center point. Okay? So that's the general concept. Okay? Now you have enough knowledge to actually create a crystal grid if you wanted to. Okay? So what are we gonna do for the rest of the episode, right? Well, well, you gotta tell me, are there certain crystals that I, that are better than others to use for that center, and how do I not, "Uh-oh, these two crystal don't like each other.

Now I'm gonna blow up my intention," you know? I haven't found that ex- I haven't, I haven't found that experience. But so, you know, the, the crystals that you choose are gonna be dependent upon the, the intention that you're setting, right? So, uh, you know, general crystals if you want to, uh, just generally give energy to a situation, then you'll use basic quartz crystals or amethyst or, um, fluorite can be helpful for that.

Uh, although you won't find a lot of fluorite points. You know, they're... it's a soft crystal, so it's a... it's more likely to, to be in other formats. But, um, if you are... so if your intention is to create something, then generally you will use energies of the crystals that are aligned with that creating. Quartz is generally a great one, right?

Um, amethyst the same, right? That's what we were just talking about. If you wanna create love, you're gonna wanna add in rose quartz. You're gonna wanna add in rhodochrosite, right? Those are the love crystals, right? If you want to clear out, if you're trying to create health, then maybe some smoky quartz because smoky quartz is for cleansing and, and he- it, it, it clears out impurities, right?

Uh, and you might wanna use some hematite. That removes negativity. Make sure you clean the hematite before you put it in there. Well, the thing about hematite is that hematite will collect negative energies until it's full, and then it will dump them all back out again. So you have got to clean that hematite regularly if, unless you wanna get dumped on from it- No, that does not sound fun.

Right. So if you're gonna use hematite in your crystal grid, make sure you're cleaning it at least once a week. Okay? And so that way you make sure that it's, that's done. And for the... I can hear people asking, "How do I clean it?" Okay, so, uh, y- you clean crystals generally either by putting them in the sunlight or the moonlight, uh, or by putting them in water or burying them on the ground or whatever.

But be careful because some, some crystals like calcite- are water soluble. So you don't wanna put 'em in water because they will dis- they will dissolve, okay? So do a little research. There's a great book out there called Love in, Love is in the Earth, and that book will tell you everything you need to know about every crystal out there.

It's hundreds of pages, and it, it's fantastic, okay? That book is the bible of crystals, okay? And it will tell you everything you need to know about the crystals' properties and, you know, all of that. So, uh, but generally it's safe to put them into ... So it's generally safe to put 'em in moonlight. Sunlight will fade some crystals like fluorite.

Amethyst will also fade in sunli- sunlight, so be careful. Putting them on the ground or burying them into the ground, as long as it's not getting wet, is safe for most crystals 'cause they all come out of the ground, right? Um, so, you know, these are options for you. So when you're setting up your intentions, you wanna set it up with whatever the intention is that you're creating.

If you're trying to protect yourself from somebody, use obsidian, use, um, garnet, right? These are things that are useful for helping to protect you. Onyx also is a protective stone. So, eh, you know, you wanna pay attention to what you're trying to create, and you want to build in the right crystals to support that.

Now, if all you have is quartz, it's fine, okay? Don't, don't freak yourself out and think you have to buy a million crystals to make this happen, okay? This ... You're, you're really ... This is supplemental energy to support the process. It's not the be-all, end-all, okay? So don't panic if you don't have 50 different ki- kinds of, of crystals, right?

But usually if you start working with crystals, you get a little cres- crystal happy and you buy a whole bunch of crap, right? You're just like, "I got it all." Okay, so you guys can't see her, but she's holding up the Book of Stones, and it has got all the little, all the, the Pocket Book of Stones, and it's got all the little tabs and stuff that she's put into it-

with different colors along the top of it. So yeah. If y'all, if y'all could see- Can you find the- Yeah. It, it, it's kind of addictive. I'm just saying. If y'all could see my office right now, there's crystals everywhere. If y'all could see my living room, you know how you have like, like the, the, the little ladders, like, but it's a piece of furniture?

Yeah. So Mom had, you know, 'cause she's like Catholic background, she has all of her little statues and everything. Yeah, well, now the statues play with the crystals 'cause it's all, it's all together there. And Mama's like, "Those are my crystals. They just stay with me." We have 'em, we're, in the bedroom, the bathroom, I mean, just everywhere.

They're on Mama's coffee table. They, look, they, they, mm-hmm, Mama's all into it now. Oh, yeah. This is what I'm saying. Once you start with crystals, you tend to get a little crystal obsessed, so, uh, and you know, they could be quite pricey, so depending upon where in the country you are. So y- y- you know, I'm just gonna say some basic, simple, cheap-ass quartz points will do the trick if you need to have a starter, okay?

And the more you upgrade them, the bigger the crystals you use, the better you p- you hone the crystals to the right, uh, energies for what you're trying to create, the better the results are gonna be from the, the crystal grid that you set up. Okay? Now- You're gonna set up this crystal grid, and then you need to power it.

You need to start the energy flowing. Okay? So the crystals are all gonna face in towards the center of the grid to the s- to the intention that you're setting on the piece of paper. You're gonna put the, the single crystal on top of it that goes up and towards the universe, and then you're gonna look at that and you're gonna put the

You're gonna take the energy of the intention that you're holding. You're not just charging the grid, you're holding the intention that's on that piece of paper. You're gonna hold that intention, and you're gonna put a whole bunch of, of energy towards that intention into the grid, and you're just gonna channel all of this energy.

And, uh, okay, how do you channel it? How do we do anything in magic? We intend it, right? Ah, intend it. Yes. So what you're gonna do is you're gonna open to, to the universe through your crown chakra. You're gonna pull the energy in, and then you're going to send it out through your hands to the grid with your intention attached to it, right?

Now, let me be clear, your intention should not be 50,000 words. An intention is not, "I want this and this and this and this and this and, oh, and it has to be like that and that and that and that and, oh, and da, da, da, da, da." No, no, no. It needs to be a single sentence, not a compound sentence. There should not be ands, buts, and ors in it, okay?

A single declarative sentence. And that means that you need to get it down to the essence of what it is, and that's the important part here because, you know, you can charge this grid all you want, but if your intention is all over the place, the energy's gonna be all over the place, right? So you want to be really clear.

Let's talk about intentions for a minute, okay? We did an entire podcast on intention setting, but it's been a long time, so we're gonna go over it again. So an intention needs to be a single declarative sentence. The shorter, the better. I want a new job I want a new job, yes. Or I, I want a new job that will make me happier than this one.

Okay. I want a new job that will make me happier than this one at some point in the future. Oh, not at some point in the future. But why? Be- so, so okay, here's, here's the thing, right? At some point in the future could be 20 years from now, right? Right? You don't wanna say that. Yeah, don't wanna say that.

Right? Yeah. Right. So, um, and, and I want a new job is going to bring you more wanting too. So it's I have a, a new job that I absolutely love. That is a better intention. Ah, okay. So you state it as though it's already happened. As though it's already happened. Okay. So I have a new job that I absolutely love.

Now, here's here's the other challenge, right? You can love it, but it can't p- it may not pay you. Well, that doesn't work. I have a well-paying job that I absolutely love. Okay, this is getting better. I have a well-paying job that I absolutely love. Would you love it if it made you work 60 hours a week? No.

Been there, done that. Okay. So then we don't have to worry about putting a timing on it, okay? If you're somebody who doesn't mind working 60 hours a week, you may need to put a timing on it, right? If your family is complaining that they don't like you working 60 hours a week, then you may need to put a timing on it, 'cause you w- you won't...

You'll still love it even if it makes you work 60 hours a week, right? So that's- So I would say with no overtime ... that's about you, right? Yeah. Well, I mean, for y- I mean, for you, you don't have to put that in there because you wouldn't absolutely love it if it made you do that. Right? So you don't have to worry about adding that in, but somebody who would still absolutely love it if they were working a lot of hours, they might wanna put that in if that's something they're going for, right?

So you... This is what I'm saying. Don't add anything in that doesn't absolutely have to be there. So I have a new job that I absolutely love. I have a new well-paying job that I absolutely love. Now, you write that down on your piece of paper, you put it underneath your crystal, and now you sit there, you open to the universe, you get really still, you open to the universe, you pull your energy in, and you put the energy into the crystal grid saying, "I have a new well-paying job that I absolutely love," and you feel the love for it.

You feel the excitement for it. You feel everything that is awesome about it, right? And you feel into the energy of that and into the having of it. Not the wanting of it, the having of it. And what you're doing is you're programming the universe. This is a computer program, and you're energizing it using the energy from the universe to send that computer program out into the universe over and over and over again so that it will then imprint upon the rest of the universe around you and create the reality that you're calling into being.

So you want to imprint it with everything that you want. I love it. It's amazing. I get paid well. I enjoy the work. I love, I love the commute. I love everything about it. You know, where you're just like, "Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh." What do I love about it? Oh, and so, you know, act as though you're already there and you're telling your former self how awesome it is So we're breathing it.

We're, we're, we're feeling it. I'm smelling it. I'm, just everything All of it. And then when you've felt it fully and you feel like it's going, what I want you to do is I want you to take the energy out of your body that you're running. You're still running the circuit of the, of the crown chakra to the hands, and I want you to see it slowly pull out of your body and away from your hands and just connect that circuit from the universe straight into that crystal grid and let it keep going.

Am I shazamming the entire crystal grid, or am I concentrating on the middle one that'll feed to the others? No, the whole crystal grid. The whole thing, right? Okay. Yeah, because the crystal grid itself is set up to, to amplify what you're already putting in. Okay? And so the important thing here, though, is if you've got kids or a housekeeper, you gotta get them to stay the hell away from that grid okay?

Because if you move a crystal out of the grid, you break the pattern. You break the energy that's going in. So if you have an earthquake, if you, if your kids run into the, the table that it's on, if your housekeeper decides to dust and you move a crystal, you're gonna have to redo the thing. If your cat takes a walk across it Your cat takes a walk across it.

Yes, all of these things will impact your crystal grid. So, you know- I highly recommend that you put them in places where these things can't happen. Um, and if you have cats, this may not be for you. So you could put it in a closet, but that, that has its own energetic to it, right? Put it, put it in a room and close the door and keep the cats out, that'll be fine, right?

In a closet, probably not so much. The energetic isn't... The, the energy doesn't move in that room. So, but you get the point. Okay? So this is the general concept. So you wanna stay away from negative words, like I don't do this or I don't do that, because, mm, right, not so much. Uh, things like losing weight, for instance, um- That just popped into my head.

Yeah. You're, you're welcome. Yeah. So, uh, things like losing weight, it- you don't say, "I, um, I lost 40 pounds," or whatever, right? You say, "I am," you know, "X weight." You know, "I weigh this much, and I'm so proud of myself for the journey I've taken to get here." You say that instead of I lost, because that implies that you need to find it.

And think about that one. Okay. All right. Okay, now I don't wanna find... I already found it. Yeah. It found it one time too many. Yeah, it found it one time too many. Menopause found it for me. Good God. Yeah. Yes. Yeah, and- We don't wanna find it again I d- We want it to be gone ... I really don't. Yeah. Yeah. We don't wanna find it again.

So you get words matter, right? The way that we phrase things matters. And I'll go back to the example I used in the original podcast, which is, um, you know, my friend who said, "I wanna live in a magical house." And I'm like, "No, you don't." No, you don't. You don't wanna live in a house where every door you open goes to a random location, where entities may wander through your house at any given point in time and mess with your life, where, you know, there are energy vortices that, that may shift the structure of reality in, in your, your space so that you're in one time zone in one space of your house and another time zone in another space.

Don't laugh, that happened. Okay? That happened. There's a reason that we had a rule in the magical house of, you know, there's no mucking about with time and space within the confines of the property. There's a reason for that rule, okay? So, you know, you don't want things where doors and windows to other dimensions open of their own accord on a regular basis, you know?

You just, you don't want any of that, right? She's like, "No, I don't want any of that." I'm like, "Right, take it back. Take it back." That is, that is too simplified. You know, you want a place, you wanna live in a place where a lot of people who are of magical background and, and inclination come together in community.

That is what you want. She's like, "Yes, that's what I want." Okay, be very clear in your communication, you know? So- In a healthy community- In, in a health- 'Cause you don't want a toxic one. Thank you. I was just... You plucked that one out of my head. I was just about to say that. So- Go me. Yeah. So, you know, all of these things and more, right?

So, you know, when you're stating your intentions, you wanna be really clear with your language. And, and ask yourself, "Is there a different way that this could be interpreted?" Because especially if you're doing any work with the fae, they will fuck it up for you. They will say, "Oh, you want this? We'll do it this way.

And th- those are the words you asked for." It's like, "I, you know that wasn't what I meant." "But you said it." But you said it. And they love loopholes. Oh, they love the loopholes. Yes. Oh- They love, yes ... they love the loopholes. Yes. Yeah. Yes, they do. Yeah. So- Speaking from my own experience ... be very clear.

There's a reason that I have an attorney friend who says I write excellent contracts. He's like, "I'm a litigation attorney, and I can't find any holes in this contract you wrote." I'm like, "That's because I'm a magician." And I have to look for what all could possibly go wrong before I go into doing work.

And so, you know, you get a lot of practice. All right. So I, I think that's everything that I wanna share with you today. The, the one, uh, you know, my Kelleism for the day is gonna be, um, be careful what you ask for, for you will surely get it. Um, and happy manifesting. Yes. Well, y'all have fun with those crystal grids and watch out for- I'm just saying watch.

Pra- Would, would it be good to, like, for... When you have your intention, find a magical friend and, you know, say, "How does this sound?" And, and kinda bounce it off of people to see? Yeah, that would be a really good idea if you've got somebody who's, who's good at that. Um, the other thing I wanna mention is that this is particularly good for, uh, helping you manifest with your business.

So especially if you have a hard time, if, if you're, if your energy is fully integrated with your business, and you are your business, um, uh, what that means is that all of your garbage and limiting beliefs and beingness is bound up in your business. And so this is a way to sort of circumvent that until you can shift it.

And so, you know, this is a great way to set it up, and, uh, I did this for many years, where I used a crystal grid to support my business. I left all my crystals in Richmond, so I'm not doing that now. But but, um, you know, I did this for many years with my business to, to support the business and bring in extra cash.

Now, w- uh, with crystal grids, what about taking them down? So let's say you have it for business for, I'm gonna make it up, I wanna bring in these k- types of new customers, right? Or something. And then okay, now you got that. Now you wanna change it and use, use the grid for something else. Um, what about deconstructing it to then use it for something else?

You take it apart, take the, take the intention out and burn it, and then cleanse all the crystals before... and, and then cleanse the, the space that you set it on by s- smudging it and, you know, literally wiping it down 'cause it's probably dusty as fuck. Um, so, you know, clean the space and smudge it, and then, then reconstruct the next one.

All right. Well, that's all that we have time for this week, folks. So tune in next time when Kelle adds another chapter into your guide to energy, magic, and the spirit world. I'm Jules here with Kelle Sparta, and you have been listening to Spirit Sherpa. So long, y'all. Bye.
