What this site is
Crystal Lore is a free reference library about healing crystals, chakras, and related traditional practices. The content is a mix of public mineralogical data (sourced from references such as Mindat and Wikipedia) and traditional metaphysical associations written by our editors. Nothing on this site is medical advice, financial advice, legal advice, or a substitute for professional care.
How you may use it
Read, share links, and quote short passages with attribution back to the page you took them from. Do not republish full pages on another site without permission. Do not scrape the entire site to feed a machine-learning model; if you want a bulk export for a legitimate research purpose, write to us first.
What we promise
We try to be accurate. When we get a fact wrong we fix it. The site is provided as-is, without any warranty. Mineralogical data evolves, and traditional associations vary across cultures and lineages; if a stone you care about is described in a way that does not match your tradition, please tell us and we will note it.
What we ask of you
Do not use the site to harm anyone. Do not present our content as your own. Do not rely on a crystal page to make a medical or financial decision; talk to a qualified human first. If you buy a stone based on something you read here, source it ethically, mining can be hard on people and on land.
Affiliate links and sponsorship
This site does not currently sell crystals or take commissions on sales. If we ever do, we will mark sponsored content clearly and at the top of the page where it appears, not just in the footer.
Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Crystal Lore and its editors are not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the site. Your use is at your own discretion.
Changes
We may update these terms when something material changes about the site. The date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the revised terms.
