Crystals should be cleansed and re-energized on a regular basis or after heavy use. Regular cleansing removes negative or unwanted energy and restores the original vibration of the crystal.
Cleansing methods include:
- Immersing in salt water or rain water, dry and leave in the sun to re-energize. Layered or soft crystals may dissolve, so be careful
- Place in sea salt or brown rice overnight, leave in the sun to re-energize. This method is not a good option for layered or soft crystals
- Smudging with sage or holy wood
- Placing in the light of the full moon, (my personal favorite) or sunlight
- Place on Selenite or a Quartz or Amethyst cluster overnight
- Cleansing with Reiki energy
- Cleansing with the vibrational tone of a singing bowl or ting shaws
After cleansing and recharging your stones send your intention to the stone. Carry them with you based on intention.
