Crystals for Money: 17 Crystals for Wealth, Success and Abundance

Crystals for money: citrine, pyrite, tiger's eye, African jade and malachite necklaces

Ever wished your purse had a little more sparkle? For centuries, people have kept certain stones close in the hope of welcoming prosperity, luck and opportunity. Merchants carried citrine in their tills, jade has long been treasured as a symbol of good fortune, and pyrite's golden glint has made it a favourite money crystal for generations.

Crystals are not a get-rich-quick spell (sadly), but many people find a money crystal a lovely reminder of their goals, a nudge towards abundance thinking and a little extra confidence to go after what they want. Here are 17 crystals traditionally linked with money, wealth and success, starting with our five favourites.


1. Citrine: The Merchant's Stone

If there is one crystal for money, it is citrine. Known as the merchant's stone and the stone of abundance, sunny citrine is traditionally associated with prosperity, optimism and success, and shopkeepers once kept a piece in their tills to welcome customers and coins alike. Its warm golden colour feels like bottled sunshine.

2. Pyrite: Fool's Gold

With its metallic golden shine, it is no wonder pyrite is nicknamed fool's gold. It is traditionally associated with wealth, willpower and drive, and is often placed on desks and in workspaces as a symbol of abundance and getting things done.

3. Tiger's Eye: Confidence and Good Fortune

Golden-brown tiger's eye, with its silky shimmer, has long been worn as a talisman for good luck and courage. It is traditionally associated with confidence, focus and wise decisions, which is why it is a popular crystal for business and money matters.

4. Jade: The Stone of Good Fortune

Jade has been treasured for thousands of years as a symbol of luck, harmony and abundance, and green stones in general are often linked with growth and prosperity. We work with African jade, a rich green stone with plenty of character, traditionally associated with abundance and fresh opportunities.

How to Use Crystals for Money

  • Wear it: a necklace or bracelet keeps your money crystal close and acts as a little reminder of your goals throughout the day.
  • Keep one where you work: pyrite or citrine on a desk or by the till is a classic.
  • Pop one in your purse: a small tumbled stone in your wallet is an old tradition for welcoming abundance.
  • Set an intention: hold your crystal and picture a specific goal. Our guide to crystals for manifesting has more ideas.
  • Keep them cleansed: refresh your stones regularly with our guide to cleansing your crystals.

And remember, crystals work best alongside action. Think of your money crystal as a cheerleader for your plans rather than a replacement for them. For more, see our guides to crystals for career success and crystals for energy, or find the meaning of every stone in our A-Z Crystal Guide.
