Sit quietly, hold your crystal and clear your mind of unrelated thoughts. I also suggest that you clear the stone of any previous programming while you cleanse it. You can use the gemstone healing properties listed on this website for guidance, or your own intuition as to which stone would best serve the purpose you have in mind.Ĭleanse your chosen stone (or stones) with whichever method you prefer. For example choose a calming stone for letting go of stress or an energizing stone to promote action. Think about what you want from your stone and carefully formulate your intention.Ĭhoose a stone that resonates with the intention you desire. To do this, I suggest following these steps. While it is not essential to program your gemstones to gain benefit from their healing properties, you can do so if you wish to focus the stones' energy on something specific. The following, more common crystals, are considered safe to cleanse in water:Īgate, Amethyst, Aventurine, Clear Quartz, Citrine, Red Jasper, Rose Quartz, Smokey Quartz, Snow Quartz, Tiger Eye Crystals that are very soft tend to scratch or flake easily, whilst others contain metals and/or toxins, causing them to rust or become toxic. Some crystals are perfectly safe to cleanse in water, however there are many that are not. However you must remember to regularly cleanse and re-energize the quartz cluster to ensure it retains its cleansing and re-energizing powers. Placing your stones on a large quartz cluster will clear negative energies and re-energize the stones. Always thank the Universe, and/or your Angels, after doing this. Place bigger stones close to the bowl, then set your intentions and play the bowl for a few minutes.įocus your mental energies on your crystals and ask the Universe, or your Angels, to cleanse the stones of all negative energies and to re-energize them for their maximum potential. If the stones are small you may put them into the singing bowl. This will clear the stones of all negative energy. Simply burn the smudge stick or incense and pass your stones through the smoke.

Make sure you dispose of the rice afterwards. You can place your stones in a bowl of brown rice. Leave for approximately 24 hours and then gently pat dry, or leave to air dry. Place some natural sea salt into a glass bowl, add purified water and your gemstones. Only use this method on harder stones, and (as with the running water), if you are unsure whether your stones are water safe, use a different cleansing method. Only use glass bowls when cleansing and charging gemstones with salt.Īgain, (as with the sea salt method), I find this to be harsh on some of the softer stones. Make sure you dispose of the salt so it is not used again. The sea salt will absorb all negative energies from the stones, leaving them cleansed and re-energized. Put your stones into the small bowl and leave overnight for approximately 24 hours. Fill the large bowl with sea salt and place the smaller bowl into this. Instead, I use two glass bowls - one larger than the other. For this reason, many people like to place their gemstones directly into a bowl of natural sea salt, however I find this to sometimes be too harsh on the softer stones. Sea salt has long been known to have purification properties. Some stones should not be immersed in water, so if you are unsure whether your stones are water safe, use a different cleansing method. Holding your gemstones under clear, purified water will cleanse and recharge them.
