Hello,
I wonder which crystals my fellow Tarot enthusiasts can suggest to use when performing readings and storing my decks with? I used Smokey Quartz to store a darker deck; yet my ordinary RWS I could not find a crystal that I resonate with, and I am completely clueless about using crystals when performing a reading...
Use whatever you like imo. Or read up on the metaphysical properties and then deliberately choose which to use. I do both - as it suits my mood.
Here's a thread - I'm post #3, suggesting 3 crystals there and some photos:

And some other threads on Crystals and Tarot:

And here's another photo of a selection of my "reading crystals":
The point is clear quartz with inclusions (I don't know what they are - but it's very pretty
) - the style of the point means it's "female" apparently, the black disk is an obsidian mirror - pocket sized, the skull is smokey quartz, the irregular round with pink/rust colour is a clear quartz with some dirt trapped at the base, the Buddha is Turquoise (it's tiny, 3.5cm high) - he's relevant because Hotei - the 'Happy Buddha' is also the patron of diviners,
the ones with Stars of David are clear quartz.
I don't use them all at one
- I choose - again according to mood.
Usually I'll have 1-3 on the reading table.
