Cleansing White Selenite, Satin Spar, Maria Glass, Desert Roseā¦Ā whatever you call it, when it comes down to it, itās essentially all the same thing. One point is for sure - it is an essential weapon in any metaphysical wellness workerās arsenal.Ā Like burning white sage or sprinkling salt, Selenite can cleanse your space of ugly vibes left behind after a nasty breakup, a death in the home, or even just bad juju left behind by shitty housemates who refused to help do the dishes.Ā
A Selenite crystal can also be used to cleanse the energy of your other stones.Ā If you have a large selenite block you can lay your other stones on top of the block overnight to recharge like an Ikea wireless phone charger. Selenite is also a stone of mental clarity.Ā It can enhance mental flexibility as well as enabling stronger decision-making. Who hasnāt wished for stronger decision-making abilities when spending their entire night trying to decide which movie to watch on Netflix before going to bed and falling asleep watching the same episode of Gilmore Girls youāve fallen asleep watching 157 times before?
Though Selenite is named for the Moon, it is also a sweet angel stone.Ā It is used for contacting and communication with angels for guidance and can also be used for finding and working with other spirit guides. Oh, and itās damn pretty.
