The global Quartz Crystal market was valued at $8.23 billion in 2018, with a projection to reach $13.61 billion by 2026. In fact, since 2010, there has been a 65% increase in the search term ‘Crystal healing’ itself (CNBC).

There’s also an upward trend collectively for the precious & semi-precious gemstone market with a forecast for steady growth for the period of 2022-2027 at CAGR 4.8%.

Evidently, the growing popularity in Crystals & gemstones has been reflected in every way, including the growing prices as observed by the mine owners. The reason for this growth is not only the rising disposable income, new living standards, and a demand for premium quality products; but also the new age of Spirituality and Self-care.

The world has been rapidly evolving in the past decade. We have witnessed a whole new era of technology, ideals, and lifestyle. There has been a collective shift in the mindset of a lot of people who want more out of life than what was previously established as the norm.

This new age of people have decided to celebrate life and live each day in a more holistic & mindful way by staying closer to our roots and opting for practices like – Yoga, Mindfulness, and Meditation. This change is the driving force behind the rise in the popularity of Crystals. People love using them for healing, beauty, home decor, and positive energy. 

Crystals actually have been used since ancient times for rituals, spirituality, and adornments. In fact, some amulets have been found as long as 30,000 years ago. The Ancient Egyptians, Romans, Greeks, Indians, and many other cultures have all used it for a variety of reasons. The Egyptians used it for rituals and protection while The Chinese have been using it for healthcare practices like in their acupuncture needles for over five thousand years now.

Clearly, the New age culture didn’t just discover creative ways to health and happiness but also rediscover some of the lost ancient practices, one of which is Crystal healing. And with the rising interest in Self-care & spirituality all over the world, we’d say it is here to stay.
