Crystals do have their own energetic signature frequencies though! Quartz is a good example; we use its piezoelectric and resonance properties to make cheap but relatively accurate oscillators.

That article says it’s 32 768 Hz, which is strangely close to some of the figures you can find on wikipedia.

Brb making a necklace of crystal oscillators to heal and balance my body. (And yeah 32768 Hz is a pretty common value for oscillators; interesting the crystal pseudoscientists use it too).
