One way I like to charge/program my crystals is to hold them in my hand while listening to music. When I listen to the music, I focus on how it makes me feel. If a song makes me feel happy or excited I use one of my citrines, if a song makes me feel romantic I use my rose quartz and so on and so forth. Whenever I hold them again I think of that song and the feeling comes flooding back! Tones and music are very important to my practice (I have a ton of wind chimes and use tuning forks frequently) so I like this method a lot!
