Crystals are wonderful tools that can enhance your life when used properly, but if it’s just lying around collecting dust in your home it probably won’t be doing much for you.
It’s important to know that crystals have consciousness, that can be programmed and they need to be cleansed and charged regularly, especially if you’re wearing them as jewellery!
How to Cleanse Crystals Easily
Charging crystals and why do we need to do it?
Most crystals’ full potential is inactivated. Think of them as batteries, they need to be charged to give power to you. Most people are carrying around dead batteries. Crystals need to be recharged to be fully activated for all the ways they can help you.
3 Easy ways to charge your crystals:
- Work with the sun. Place them outside in the middle of the day and ask them to absorb the energy of the sun. Sunlight is intensely charging for crystals! Leave them there for a few hours.
- Moonlight, especially during a full moon is powerful. Simply place your crystals under the full moon and ask them to absorb the energies of the moon and leave them overnight.
- Charge them with love through breathwork. Inhale with the intention of inhaling unconditional love energies, and exhale into your crystal with the intention you’re charging the crystal with these energies. This one is my preferred method and works wonders! You can do this method for a couple of minutes.
Pro Tips by Athina Bailey
- Don’t use salt water! It can ruin some crystals.
- If you use a crystal water bottle, make sure you cleanse the crystal regularly as it programs the water you drink!
- Talk to your crystals, they’re conscious and respond well to your instructions.
- Sunlight can make some coloured crystals fade so it may not be appropriate for all crystals.
- Be aware during intense eclipses when the energy is chaotic that your crystal can absorb that energy and may not be beneficial for everyone.
How to cleanse crystals and why do we need to do It?
Crystals are consciousness, they absorb the energy around them, this is especially important if you’re wearing crystals and should be done daily.
3 Easy ways to cleanse your crystals:
- Burn Palos Santos or sage, and simply allow the smoke to circulate through and around the crystals for a minute.
- Bury the crystal in the earth – this can be in a pot plant but in the earth is even better. The earth pulls out the old negative energy from the crystal. Highly recommend this method for a deeper cleanse, you can even leave it in there for a couple of days!
- Use energy. Visualise golden light flowing down through the top of your head and down out your hands, see this energy enter into the crystal to cleanse it. Do this for a couple of minutes intending to clear any negative energy.
Start giving your crystals some love and watch how they benefit your life!
