It’s a simple proposition, the better we take care of our crystals, the better they take care of us. It’s important to clean and recharge them regularly so they can serve you in the best possible way and function at their highest. Just as we humans need a hot bath or a long soak to feel clean, energized and rejuvenated, so do our crystals. Alternatively, think of it as cleaning out your closet or organizing your pantry. We clear out the old to make room for the new. Healing Crystals are our partner in embodying and realizing our most important intentions. The energy and care we give them is rewarded to us in the form of spades.
Why Clean Crystal?
Crystals are containers of energy. They were born on Earth, but spend time with us on the ground, absorbing all the energy around them. They are dynamic and in many ways closely related to the human condition. think about it. The less active and engaged we are, the more stagnant we become. Likewise, if crystals have not been used and touched for a period of time, they can collect dust, become dull and lose their luster. On the other hand, if we give our all, day in and day out, to put our energy into the things and people around us, then at some point, we need a break, a chance to rest and recover. So if crystals are used regularly or daily, they work hard to absorb all the energy we put into them. Over time, they can start to become heavy, sticky, and oversaturated, and, cleaning your crystals will wipe away any excess residue and reset their energy so they can vibrate at their highest and purest level frequency operation. Remember, you and your crystal are a team. Give them what they need, and when you call them, they will be ready to serve you.
How to Clean Crystal?
We all know how quickly chaos and confusion can build up when we don’t keep up with regular maintenance. If crystals are not cleaned regularly, they can become vibrant and begin to lose their luster and efficacy. Just like a vacuum cleaner’s bag will never be emptied, sooner or later a vacuum cleaner will lose suction and become useless. Here are some tips on how to cleanse your crystal energy. Make this exercise part of your weekly routine for best results.
Purify Your Crystals with Celestial Energy
Let your crystals bathe in moonlight or in warm sunlight. This allows your crystal to absorb the heat and active energy of the day, or the cool, restful energy of a magical starry night. Most crystals clean well in the sun, but if you’re concerned about fading, the time should be limited to four hours. Certain moon-aligned crystals, such as moonstone and selenite, are enhanced by moonlight.
Your practice:
Keep your crystal in a safe location nearby outdoors, day or night, for four hours.
Reunite your crystals with Mother Earth
Return where your crystals came from. Like coming home, this reconnection with nature will strengthen and revitalize their energy.
Your approach:
Place your crystals where they can reconnect with the earth – in outdoor pots, in soil, on branches, at the base of tree trunks or vines, in flower beds or even in houseplants for 24 hours.
When in doubt, pull out
Native Americans have used sage for its cleansing and healing properties for centuries. As one of nature’s richest gifts, burning sage distributes the earth’s energy to purify and purify. Its smoke is like a revitalizing dose of your crystals, making them clear and energized.
Your approach:
Burn a sage stick and swipe it lightly over the crystal until it’s completely submerged in the smoke. As an added bonus, the healing aroma will also help to purify the energy in the surrounding environment. When burning herbs, place a fire tray underneath to catch the ashes.
Give your crystal a match made in heaven
Use your crystals as matchmakers and pair them with the cleaning power of selenite or clear quartz. Both crystals have the rare ability to charge and purify other crystals without losing their own energy, making them perfect cleaning companions. This is a good option if you don’t have much time. You can leave the crystals on a selenite bowl or plate while you’re out and let them do their job.
Your approach:
Place each crystal on a piece of selenite or crystal quartz, or in a selenite bowl for six hours.
Why Charge A Crystal?
So, once your crystals are cleaned and refreshed, how do we recharge them? If the purification process is about purifying and replenishing the energy of the crystal, then charging is like starting an engine! This is a way of transferring the energy of your intentions, goals and dreams to the crystal to activate it. Essentially, crystallize the vision you want to achieve for yourself. You can do this a few different ways. For some people, it helps to use a mantra to speak your intentions out loud. Others prefer to practice visualization or think mentally through their wishes. Either way, be specific about what your goals are, then set a course. Through this programming process, you give your crystal a mission and purpose, but you are also “accelerating” and recharging your own state of mind and subconscious mind, an energy that you can invoke every time you use the crystal. Once infused with your energy, your crystal is like a trusted travel companion riding a shotgun on your journey to realize your dreams.
Copper is a particularly powerful conduit for charging crystals. It’s crystals like planet Earth’s solar energy is superman – an energy supercharger! Two of the most effective copper charging methods are copper charging pyramids and copper plates. Gifts from the ancient Egyptians, the ingenuity of the structure and the rising shape of the pyramids represent a miracle of human achievement. The copper sides of this pyramid create a greenhouse effect that amplifies and nourishes whatever is placed beneath it. Spending time inside the pyramid is like a spa day to rejuvenate your crystals. Likewise, the copper plate acts as a vibrant solar panel that enhances and amplifies the energy of anything that comes in contact with it, be it your crystal or you! For even greater effect, hold the metal plate in your hand to enhance your own energy field, imagine all the cells in your body tingling with your own life force, and experience the invigorating upliftment that copper brings. Then, divert all your intentions.
How to Charge a Crystal?
When you’re ready to activate and charge your crystal, set your intentions clearly. This is essential for programming your crystals and building your connections and connections. Take a moment to think about what you really want and what is most important to you. Be who you are, but keep an open mind and an open heart and be ready for all possibilities and opportunities.
All of these practices can be used alone or in combination with each other.
What you do to program and charge the crystal according to your intentions:
- Sitting quietly, holding a stone in both hands
- Breathe the clearest white light and visualize your intentions. the stone is listening
- Share your intent with the crystal in the clearest way possible to program it and make your connection.
- Your crystal is now charged and activated.
Your exercise (using the copper pyramid) to charge your crystal:
- Place the crystal at the base of the copper pyramid.
- Visualize your intent.
- Leave the crystals in the pyramid overnight.
- You can also charge other items, such as water or vitamins, if needed.
Your exercises (with copper plates) to boost your energy:
- Hold the copper plate with one or both hands and visualize your intentions
- Embrace the restorative charge flowing through your body
- Once your energy field is amplified, hold your crystals and channel this
- rejuvenating energy to them to raise and maximize their vibrational frequency
- You can also supercharge the crystal by placing it directly on the copper plate overnight.
