How to Cleanse Your Crystals
Running Water: (Make sure your crystals are water safe first!) The water will help to neutralize negative energy that has been absorbed by the crystal. Natural water is best, but from the faucet will work. Completely submerge the crystal for 1 minute (hard stones not soft/brittle like halite).
Salt Water: Salt is used to absorb/banish unwanted energy. Salt water can be ocean or man made. Completely submerge crystal and let soak for up to 48 hours. When done rinse and pat dry.
Brown Rice: This is used to draw out negative energy in safe containment. This is a great way to cleanse protective crystals. Bury crystal in rise for up to 24 hours. Dispose of rice afterwards.
Sun/Moonlight: The light from either the moon or sunlight helps to cleanse and recharge crystals. (Make sure your crystal is sunlight safe before hand or the color will fade).
Other Crystal: Other crystals can be used to cleanse and recharge them. Such as selenite, amethyst, quartz clusters, etc. Place the crystal you want to cleanse on top of or next to it in order to remove negative vibrations. Leave it there for up to 24 hours.
Visualization: Picture light surrounding the crystal as you hold it. Feel it growing brighter as the impurities flush out. The stone will shine brighter with renewed purpose.
