How to Cleansing And Charging Crystals. Crystals have been used in metaphysical healing for centuries. They are believed to help cleanse and balance the body’s energy, opening pathways to spiritual growth and emotional well-being. The crystals can be physically placed on or around a person, carried in pockets or jewelry, made into elixirs with water and honey, added to baths or foot soaks, mixed with herbs in herbal tea blends–the list goes on! This blog post will go over some of the most popular methods of cleansing your crystals as well as how to charge them.
What are cleansing crystals?
Crystals are more than just pretty rocks! Crystals like Selenite and Clear Quartz act as natural energy regulators. They help cleanse the body’s aura, removing negative energies that can contribute to anxiety or stress. Cleansing crystals also provide an extra boost in happiness by releasing happy hormones like serotonin into your system–and who doesn’t need an extra dose of that?
Cleansing crystals are said to help ground energy. The idea is that by amplifying the crystal’s natural ionizing action you can assist in clearing stagnant and stale air from your space. They may also lessen the effect of electromagnetic pollution in hazardous environments such as factories or laboratories. These stones are charged with an intention before they are placed in a designated space and their resonance helps keep toxicity away from living areas. This explanation likens the stones to little “sponges” for energy, which can be used again when they need recharging- taking on new tasks and absorbing different energies depending on what kind of work needs doing at any given time- say if a child’s bedroom needs cleansing, then one would pick up something like a Selenite or Clear Quartz.
Selenites and Clear Quartz are two of the most popular crystals for cleansing energy, but there’s plenty to choose from! What do you like to use?
Cleansing crystals are traditionally used to promote wellness, break negative patterns and habits, and maintain a flow of positive energy.
Cleansing crystals have a very high grounding vibration and can help shift one’s state of mind into the third eye (or middle) chakra. They bring in light energy from the sun during the day, which allows you to take in that much-needed vitality and life force we need for optimal health at any age.
Each crystal creates its own frequency or vibration, so it is good to have a variety of different stones around you when carrying out your cleansing rituals as each will operate on different levels of spiritual awareness; such as promoting intuition and understanding on a physical level by utilizing near-death experiences or those on the spiritual plane.
Cleansing crystals are stones that are used for spiritual purification, to remove smog or grime from the body, restore balance and bring peace to the mind and those around you. Using them is much like using a crystal, but on a greater level of purpose by infusing it with intent.
How do you cleanse crystals?
There are a few ways to cleanse your crystals, but the most common methods involve water and salt. Salt is said to act as a protective barrier against negative energies by absorbing them before they can get into your body. The process usually involves submerging your crystal in some kind of liquid–whether it be sea salt or holy water if you’re going for spiritual cleansing, or just regular tap water if you want to remove any impurities on its surface–and leaving it there until all the negativity has been absorbed. You could also simply rinse off the dirt and grime from your crystals with warm running water, then hold them under cold running water for several minutes.
One of the many ways possible to cleanse and charge a crystal is to place it in filtered spring water or rainwater overnight where the vibration of this living, the moving element will slowly release any stagnant energy from within. Afterward, dry off the crystal and give it a good cleansing. This is not generally necessary though if you are working with your crystals on a daily basis. There are other ways to clear away energies such as burning sage leaves or lavender in addition to manipulating an object’s vibrations by breaking its molecular bonds – something wearing rubber gloves does not do well! Finally, smudging with white sage will also cleanse your crystals for use even if they have been manipulated in some way.
Crystals can be stored in various ways, but one of the most popular methods is to keep them wrapped up and tucked away at the bottom of your purse or wallet so they’re always with you! This also provides a way for you to carry your crystals with saltwater on the go if necessary. Another common method would be to place them in a small pouch or bag. The crystals may be wrapped up, placed inside of an object such as a box or jar, put into something that they will fit in–such as the palm of your hands–or presented on their own with other objects for cleansing and charging purposes.
One way to charge crystals is by meditating with them. You can hold your crystals in your hands and visualize what you want to achieve–whether it be self-confidence, creativity, or just feeling better about yourself–and then send that energy into the crystal itself by directing one’s thoughts towards it for a few minutes. The other way is through intention setting–which involves visualizing whatever goal you want to set for the crystal–before you put it in a place where it will be fully exposed to sunlight, moonlight, or both.
The point of charging crystals is so they can absorb whatever energy we need and keep them at their best strength! You should charge your crystals once a day if possible as this maintains their natural energies.
How do you charge your crystals?
Charging crystals can be done in a variety of ways as well. The reason that most crystals need to be charged is that they have already absorbed the negative energy and are now looking for positive energy–in other words, we want them to act as our protectors from anxiety-inducing thoughts or feelings! One common way people charge their crystals is by placing them on top of an object with strong healing properties–like rose quartz placed over a plant’s roots (an abundance stone), or Selenite near water (a cleansing agent). You could also hold one crystal in each hand while focusing on their desired purpose, then place them back down when you’re finished meditating. Another option is to use a crystal grid, like the one mentioned in this blog post.
Follow the law of attraction! You can charge your crystals with enthusiasm, more positivity, kindness, optimism, and other yummy emotions. However, negative thoughts will do the opposite.
One great way to have lots of fun charging up your crystals is by meditating with them. I hope this helps you on your journey into self-love and self-acceptance! Talk soon!
Crystals are not like batteries. They don’t need charging in the way that a tablet needs to be charged, and they can’t be overcharged. Instead, they’re more like a car’s gas tank- there’s only so much energy stored inside them, but instead of gas it’s made up of different materials with different properties.
However, crystals do react with external energies around them- music or physical touch being two examples- and they will use these energies to store some amount of their own energy in response to the stimuli. And while this isn’t what anyone might think of as “charging”, it does mean that crystals should be used responsibly within an appropriate setting (either home or office) where there are no strong vibrations that might interfere with the crystal’s natural vibrations.
What is an example of popular crystals?
Selenite and Clear Quartz are two very popular cleansing and charging crystals! Selenite cleanses by absorbing negativity while also providing protection from outside sources–you can often see it near water or at particular power spots for this reason. Clear Quartz, on the other hand, emits energy that helps create harmony between mind and body as well as peace within oneself. They’re both excellent stones to have around during meditation sessions!
Crystals do not have the same crystal structure as plastics.
The mineral components of plastics are all fused together, so there is no crystalline structure to speak of. Crystals by contrast are usually minerals formed into particular shapes that repeat at regular intervals, like a perfect six-wedge snowflake or a sword on its hilt. The more complex the crystals can be called “polycarbonates” with intricate patterns like diamonds and amethyst due to their complexity levels which include splitting light in all directions or spinning it around one axis.
Quartz is the most common with its large variety of colors and crystal formations. It also has a Moh’s hardness level of seven, making it easy to find and mine for. Quartz Crystal comes in many forms- there are various shapes that can occur, such as hexagonal crystals or scalenohedrons. These crystals come in many different colors which include white, rose, amethyst, blue quartzite, goldstone, and citrine yellow quartzite however only a small fraction within these groups are clear quartzes. This form of quartz is often called rock crystal because it could be excavated from the rocks (hence where we get the term “rock”).
Quartz has been shown to have therapeutic benefits including purifying energy centers, stabilizing emotions, and increasing physical energy.
Selenite is another important crystal that can cleanse a space by absorbing negativity- it’s often seen in proximity to water as well! Selenite actually has small spaces inside the crystals which means they are porous too, so there could be some benefit to them being used during meditation sessions for this reason.
Selenite is usually a white crystal, though it can look yellowish depending on where the crystals come from (near volcanic ash makes for an off-white color). Selenite cleanses by absorbing negativity and protecting against outside sources. It’s also helpful to use selenite during meditation sessions because its porous nature allows one to hold on to the crystal during their session.

What is the best way to store your crystals for maximum energy efficiency?
Crystals, like organic and inorganic materials, release their stored energy (i.e., light) at specific frequencies governed by thermodynamic principles. They both amplify the natural electromagnetic field (which is also known as Earth’s magnetic field), but they do so differently and to different degrees. The stronger an object’s charge density, that is, the more electrons are within a given space around an atom of conducting material, the greater it will repel other charged objects when they come into contact with one another.
The crystals will store their energy for longer periods of time if you store them in cool temperatures especially if these conditions are dry too because electricity works better on cold grounds than it does on hot grounds : )
It’s really important to cleanse and charge your crystals regularly by exposing them to sunlight through a window or moonlight outdoors. Additionally, store them on their own in a pouch or somewhere that isn’t cluttered and can get plenty of sun or moonlight–or both! If you don’t have much room for that, just laying them out will do the trick as long as they’re on top of a surface that isn’t cluttered either. Abundant exposure will give whatever gemstones you’re holding the energy from the source to bounce off into your hands.
You should store your crystals either in an area facing towards the sun or moon or in a lighted room for several hours a day. There are many other factors that go into this like how near the window it is, how sunny/gloomy it is outside, and so on.
It’s important to take all these factors into consideration when considering where to store your collection of crystals. Lighting conditions can vary quite significantly from one location to another (depending on the climate), not only as pertains specifically to natural daylighting but also to artificial lighting situations indoors and outdoors too. Increased illumination provides not just visual stimulation in terms of eye-catching color patterns but also increased intake of sound and aromas from the environment; all stimuli that are important for the brain and body.
Tips for choosing the right crystal for you:
Choose a crystal that speaks to you and makes your heart feel happy! You can try different ones out, but always remember the more time you spend with one in particular, the stronger its energy will grow.
You should ask yourself some questions like: is it going to be used for meditation? Is there a specific color I’m drawn to or some type of crystal I’m drawn to? Am I drawn to water or earth-type stones?
One way you can go about choosing your crystals is by looking at the color. Colors are like music, they give off different vibrations and play a role in determining moods! You should choose a stone based on what sort of energy you want it to give you.
