Being lucky or unlucky is one of those concepts that we accept about ourselves from a young age, like not having hand-eye coordination or being bad at karaoke. We see luck as a fixed trait—you have it or you don’t. After all, if luck was up to us, everyone would be lucky, right? But what makes someone lucky? Take that one perpetually lucky friend you’re secretly, or maybe not-so-secretly envious of, for example. The one who’s always on a trip they won in some radio contest. Why does free stuff just fall into their lap? Is it because they are lucky, or is it something else? Maybe luck is less of a mysterious fairy dust bestowed upon us by the universe, and more of a balanced formula of measured risks, confidence and determination. Maybe the only reason your lucky friend is always winning contests is because they are always entering them. They probably lose more contests than they win, but they don’t let that stop them from pursuing what they want. To be luckier in life, love or business, we have to put ourselves out there.

Being outgoing enough to approach people will in turn attract more people to you. This draw also brings in opportunities. So what we should be asking ourselves is, how do we gather the confidence to put ourselves out there, and release the fears and doubts that are holding us back? Meditating with crystals for luck isn’t about reversing the luck that the universe has given you. It’s about reversing the role of “unlucky” in your own perception. These lucky crystals are especially attuned to ridding you of negative thoughts, raising your enthusiasm, rousing your energy, maintaining optimism, assertiveness and joy. Forget about lady luck. Using lucky crystals to open yourself up to new opportunities, you can be your own lucky charm!
