With 2019 right around the corner, it's important that we all start the new year right. What's a better way to start fresh than surrounding yourself with healing crystals and stones that are meant to bring good energy? For centuries, people have used stones and crystals for different purposes, mostly for healing properties. The reason why people used them was that they provided a connection between the user and the Earth. Using healing crystals is a spiritual practice that creates a bond between the person and nature.

Below is a list of five essential crystals and stones that you should have for the beginning of the new year. Each stone contains a different purpose and energy that's meant to make your 2019 a more positive year. All of them can be found on this online shop to purchase healing crystals.

1. Clear quartz

This is the most common crystal that people tend to own. The clear quartz crystal contains healing properties to help clear one 's head. It allows the person to concentrate on their goals and project good energy into their work.

2. Aquamarine

Aquamarine has a beautiful sea blue (which is no surprise considering its name). Just like water, aquamarine contains the property of fluidity. This will help you transition into 2019 smoothly by bringing out your inner peace and tranquility.

3. Ocean jasper

Like aquamarine, ocean jasper inhabits the healing properties of tranquility. However, with this stone, it encourages relaxation and eases stress. This stone is great to have on top of your dorm desk along with your books and homework. Start your spring semester right and strong with some ocean jasper.

4. Smoky quartz

2019 is about new beginnings, which means you have to leave your toxic baggage in the past. Smoky quartz will help you with that with its balancing and grounding powers. Think of smoky quartz like a detox smoothie — allow it to enter your life to take out the bad and bring out the good.

5. Tiger's eye

Finally, the tiger's eye will transfer good luck and enlightenment into 2019. Holding this stone in the palm of your hand will make you feel invincible and want to tackle any future project heading your way. Like a tiger, you'll channel a fiery energy and conquer the world... or at least the rest of the school year!

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
