Good Clean Fun

What better way to reconnect, touch and revisit your crystals, than when you clean them! Gather up all your stones. As you choose a specific way to cleanse away the dust, negative or stale energy that may surround your stone, remember what made you choose it (or why it chose you)in the first place. Below are some suggestions for cleansing:

*Run your crystal under room temperature or luke warm water.

*Place it under the light of a full moon

*Energize it in the sun for a few hours.

*Bury it in the earth (make sure you mark it!), for 24 hours.

*Place your crystal to be charged in a bowl of tumbled hematite stones or tumbled quartz crystal.

*Some crystals can be place in sea salt water. One teaspoon of Sea Salt in a glass bowl in cool water. Place the crystals in the water. Make sure the crystals are covered with water. Let them bathe in the water for 24 hours. This is a wonderful way to rejuvenate the power of your crystals. It washes away the negative energy it has absorbed and recharges it with the positive healing energy again.
