With the full moon last night, I couldn’t help but think of you (and of course, my crystals)! 🌕 You know how much I love the energy of a full moon—it’s such a perfect time to cleanse and recharge. So, I wanted to remind you to give your crystals a little love if they’ve been soaking up too much energy lately. I thought I’d share a few of my favorite ways to do just that, in case you’re feeling inspired to get your own ritual on!
Moonlight Magic
Since we’re coming off that beautiful full moon energy, I had to start with this one! I love leaving my crystals out under the moon to soak up all that lunar magic. Last night, I set mine out on the windowsill, and now they feel so much lighter and more energized. The moon’s gentle vibes are perfect for cleansing, and it’s honestly one of the easiest and most powerful methods. If you missed last night, don’t worry—the next few days still have some lunar glow left to share.
Water Cleansing (But Be Careful!)
If your crystals need a more “refreshing” cleanse, running them under cold water can do the trick. I’ll often take some of my sturdier crystals, like clear quartz or amethyst, and rinse them under running water. It’s like washing away all the stuck energy! But, word of caution—make sure your crystals are water-friendly! Some, like selenite or calcite, are super delicate and don’t react well to water. You don’t want to end up dissolving your beauties. 😅
Smudging with Sage or Palo Santo
If you’re in the mood for something more spiritual, smudging is such a lovely way to cleanse your crystals. I’ll light some sage or palo santo and let the smoke drift over them, clearing away all the stagnant energy. Not only does it feel cleansing, but the whole process is so grounding and peaceful. Plus, your space will smell amazing afterward.
Burying Them in the Earth
Okay, I don’t do this one as often, but it’s perfect if your crystals need a deep reset. I’ll bury them in the garden for a day or two, reconnecting them with the earth. It’s like giving them a natural recharge from the very thing that created them. When I dig them up, they always feel renewed and full of strong, grounding energy. If you’re a little short on garden space, a potted plant works too!
Sound Cleansing
This one’s super fun and easy—sound cleansing! I’ll use my singing bowl or even just clap my hands near the crystals to create vibrations that help shake off any lingering negative energy. The sound works as a reset button, and I love how quick and effective it can be, especially when I’m short on time.
Selenite to the Rescue
And for those of us who may not have the time or energy for a full ritual (hello, that’s me some days), selenite is the ultimate lazy girl’s cleanse. I’ll place my smaller crystals on a big selenite slab, and it does all the work for me. Selenite naturally cleanses other stones, so you don’t even have to lift a finger. 🙌
I hope these ideas give you a little inspo to cleanse your crystals, especially after all that full moon energy. It’s like hitting refresh, for both your stones and yourself. Give it a try, and let me know how it feels!
Sending all the good vibes,
Jessica 🌙✨
