How To Cleanse & Charge Your Crystals

 Crystals are powerful tools that can enhance your energy, but to harness their full potential, it’s essential to regularly cleanse and charge them. These practices remove any unwanted or stagnant energies that the crystals may have absorbed and recharge them with positive energy, readying them for your intentions.

Cleansing Your Crystals

Cleansing your crystals is like giving them a fresh start. Over time, crystals can absorb negative energies from their surroundings or from the people who handle them. Cleansing helps to clear away these energies, allowing the crystal to return to its natural, balanced state.

There are several methods to cleanse your crystals:

• Moonlight: Place your crystals under the light of the full moon. The moon's gentle energy purifies and recharges them.
• Water: Rinse your crystals in natural running water, such as a stream or under a faucet. Be mindful that some crystals, like selenite, should not be submerged in water.
• Smoke: Use the smoke from sage, palo santo, or incense to cleanse your crystals. Pass the crystal through the smoke with the intention of clearing away any negativity.

Charging Your Crystals

After cleansing, it's important to charge your crystals. This process infuses them with positive energy, making them more powerful. You can charge crystals in sunlight, under the full moon, or by placing them on a charging plate or bowl made of selenite. 

Selenite is a unique crystal known for its self-cleansing properties. It never needs to be cleansed itself and can charge other crystals placed on or near it. Selenite vibrates at a high frequency, making it an excellent tool for clearing and amplifying the energy of other crystals. By using a selenite charging plate or bowl, you ensure your crystals are always at their peak vibrational energy.

Setting Intentions

Once your crystals are cleansed and charged, it's crucial to set an intention. This involves holding the crystal and focusing on what you want to achieve with it, whether it's protection, love, or clarity. By setting an intention, you align the crystal’s energy with your own, creating a powerful tool for manifesting your desires.

Regular cleansing, charging, and intention-setting ensure that your crystals remain potent and aligned with your goals, helping you on your journey to greater well-being.
