The Crystals are saying: You're allowed to protect your energy without explaining yourself. Not every request deserves a yes, and not every opinion needs a response. Choosing yourself isn't selfish, it's how you stay whole. Notice where your limits are: asking to be honoured and trust that respecting them strengthens your relationships, not weakens them. Your mental health must and should come first, and Black Tourmaline is your crystal for this energy. Its perfect for supporting protection, grounding your emotions, and setting strong boundaries.
