HOW TO CLEAN AND CHARGE YOUR CRYSTALS

Crystals and healing stones carry powerful energy that can help you manifest desires, attract opportunities, boost your studies or career, and bring good fortune. However, over time, these stones may absorb negative energy from you, your environment, or even other people.

When that happens, it’s important to cleanse and recharge them to restore their natural vibrancy. This is especially essential if you’re using crystals for emotional healing, spiritual well-being, or physical health.

Below are 4 simple yet effective methods to cleanse and recharge your crystals at home: 

1. Cleanse with Natural Salt or Salt Water

Salt is known for its ability to absorb negative energy and purify objects.

How to do it:

• Place your crystals on a bed of natural sea salt or Himalayan pink salt and leave them overnight.
  Or

• Soak your stones in a bowl of salt water (diluted natural salt or sea water) for a few hours.

• Rinse with clean water and let them dry naturally.

2. Cleanse with Selenite

Selenite is a high-vibration crystal that naturally cleanses and charges other stones with positive energy.

How to do it:

• Place your crystal jewelry or healing stones near or on a selenite charging plate for several hours.

• Remember to cleanse and recharge your selenite regularly using one of the methods listed here.

3. Cleanse with Sage Smoke (Smudging)

White sage is a sacred herb known for its powerful cleansing properties. Its smoke helps clear unwanted energy and restore the crystal’s natural vibration.

How to do it:

• Light a sage bundle and gently waft the smoke around your crystals for a few minutes.

• Avoid holding the stone too close to the heat or direct flame to prevent damage.

4. Recharge with Moonlight or Gentle Sunlight

Moonlight, especially during the new moon and full moon, is perfect for recharging your crystals with gentle, natural energy.

How to do it:

• Place your crystals outdoors or on a windowsill overnight under the moonlight.

• For sunlight, expose your crystals to gentle morning light (before 9 AM), then store them away before the sun becomes too strong to avoid fading or damage.

✨ Regular cleansing and recharging help your crystals stay energetically aligned and support you better in your healing journey.
