Which Hand to Wear a Natural Stone Bracelet On?

Important to Remember

The right and left hands have different meanings.
The left hand is the receiving hand, which absorbs positive energy into the body, while the right hand is the giving hand, which releases negative energy from the body.
Choosing which hand to wear a crystal bracelet on depends on the effect you want to receive from the crystal.

Right Hand — Giving Hand

(crystals for releasing negative energy)

Black Onyx
Black Tourmaline
Amethyst
Clear Quartz
Lava Stone
Black Obsidian
Black Rutilated Quartz
Lapis Lazuli
Tiger’s Eye
And others

Left Hand — Receiving Hand

(if you want to absorb certain energy from the outside)

Common crystals if you're seeking love, wealth, or positive energy:

Moonstone
Pink Tourmaline
Amethyst
Aquamarine
Malachite
Rose Quartz
Labradorite
Red Carnelian
Amazonite
Blue Lace Agate
And others

Take Note

Again, it's worth noting that some crystals can be worn on both the left and right wrists — it all depends on the effect you wish to achieve. Take time to understand the meaning and healing properties of each crystal, then decide which hand to wear your crystal bracelet on according to your intention.

Can You Sleep Wearing a Natural Stone Bracelet?

It is not recommended to wear a stone bracelet while sleeping. A stone absorbs negative energy during the day and should be cleansed and recharged at night. Wearing it during sleep may affect the quality of your rest.
