Selenite is a very soft mineral also known as alabaster and gypsum. In sandy areas, selenite sometimes forms a rosette pattern making a mineral formation called a Desert Rose. Selenite desert rose (mscaprikell) Nineveh Selenite was the most common gemstone used to make beads in the ancient town of Nineveh.

How to not Kill your Crystals — Crystal Safety
Tumblr media
How often have you looked up online and saw "to cleanse your crystals, use moonwater!", or "bury your crystals!"?
And how often did you hear of someone whose crystal ended up bleached, or entirely dissolved? (I'm looking at you, selenite)
Long post ahead but it's worth it, I promise
_________________♡♤◇♧_________________
Introduction
There are many methods of cleansing and charging crystals, but what beginner witches and pagans may not realize is that not every method is appropriate for every crystal.
While some methods are generally more harmless than others, if you don't know some of your crystal's basic properties, you might end up damaging them or even yourself!
So in this post I'll go through some general considerations and then list some cleansing & charging methods: the failproof, the ones you have to consider crystal safety, and the possibly harmful ones. Lastly, I'll list what you should NEVER do with your crystals.
_________________♡♤◇♧_________________
So what's wrong with Moonwater?
There is nothing wrong with moon or sun energy itself. What can be dangerous is Water and Sunlight. It's all about physics and chemistry.
Tumblr media
Water
Some crystals dissolve or release toxic chemicals in water. Some examples are Selenite & and Desert Rose (which is a type of Selenite), and Hematite. That means you should never leave them near water, humidity, wash them, or put them inside any elixirs.
Sidenote on elixirs: if you are going to ingest any type of water that has been in contact with crystals, you MUST do a through research to make sure they don't release ANY chemicals in the water.
Plus you can infuse water with crystal energy without them touching the water.
Tumblr media

The Sun
As for Sunlight, it can bleach your crystals and alter the coloration over time. The heat can also greatly damage them! An example of crystals that shouldn't be exposed to the sun is quartz. Pretty much all kinds, including amethyst and citrine.
Fun fact: burned amethyst clusters are very often sold as citrine. They have a burned yellow/brown/orange aspect to them, like in this image.
Real citrine has lighter yellow and orange tones.
Tumblr media
burned amethyst – fake citrine
_________________♡♤◇♧_________________
Fail proof Cleansing & Charging
Nothing can go wrong with them when it comes to crystal safety. The worst that can happen is performing them poorly, which could affect cleansing and charging effectiveness.
Smoke
There's no way to go wrong here. You can light an incense or burn herbs of your choosing, pick up a crystal, and cleanse them with the smoke. You can use energetic herbs such as rosemary to charge them.
Tip: You can choose the herbs and incense based on your stones properties! (For example, use a fiery herb to charge a fiery crystal)
Sound
There are many ways to go about this. Singing bowls, affirmations, vocal singing, bells, prayer, chanting, galdr (rune chanting), calming and uplifting music...
Choose your sound, cleanse your space, set your intention, and let Sound do its job. If you are going to charge the crystals yourself using a method such as chanting to your stones, cleansing yourself first and having a ritualistic setup would be nice. It can help you focus and make sure you will only send positive energies to your crystals.
Tumblr media
Reiki and Energy work
Absolutely no way to go wrong. Reiki is a wonderful cleasing/charging method.
You would have to be initiated in order to do Reiki, but if you can't afford that, any kind of energy work and energy manipulation will do. Just make sure to prepare yourself beforehand and focus on what you are doing.
You can use tools to help in energy manipulation, such as an athame or wand.
Water Glass Cleansing
You are NOT going to put your crystals INSIDE the water glass. That's why this is a safe cleansing method.
Fill a glass of water and set your intentions for the water to absorb all negativity from your crystals, then leave your stones & crystals near your glass of water for a few hours.
It is preferable to use a transparent glass. It doesn't have to be, but it is better. I also wouldn't recommend plastic of any kind.
Once you are done, dispose of the water, thanking it for its help, and wash the glass before using it again.
Tumblr media
_________________♡♤◇♧_________________
Consider Crystal Safety with These
They are commonly believed to be harmless (and that's mostly true), but give them some thought anyway. I will explain why.
Immersing in Salt
Salt has strong cleansing properties. You can fill a small bowl with enough salt to bury your crystals and leave them there for a few hours to a day. You could also use salt water the same way.
Why be careful?
Salt can trigger chemical reactions in some crystals. I'm mainly talking about salt water, but just to be safe, it might be best to have caution with solid salt as well.
Tumblr media
Burying in Earth
Burying crystals (especially if close to a plant or tree) is a popular cleansing/charging method. After all, they came from the earth! Who else could take better care of them?
You can leave your crystals buried outside for a few hours to a day and let the planet do its job.
Why be careful?
If you are going to leave crystals outside beneath the earth, you shouldn't have to worry about the Sun. It is WATER that you should worry about.
If it rains, the water will reach your crystals. If want to bury non water-safe crystals, make sure rain won't get to them.
Tip #1: Don't forget where you buried them
Tip #2: An alternative to burying outside is to bury crystals on your household plant's pot. You can even match the plant's own properties to the energy you want to work on your crystal.
Tumblr media
Moonlight Bath
Not moon water, just moonlight. Just let your crystals bask in moonlight... It is almost failproof.
Why be careful?
I say it's almost failproof because it can only fail if you forget your crystals outside until the sun is out, or until it rains.
If you think you are prone to forgetting to collect your crystals before the sun shines, do this early in the night and set an alarm to collect your crystals in a few hours.
Tip: you can still cleanse and charge with Moon energy even if the weather is not favorable. Just be careful with rain.
_________________♡♤◇♧_________________
Possibly Harmful Methods
For these, you NEED to know your crystals before you do them. Especially the ones involving water and heat, you should take into consideration your own health due to possible chemical releases!
Sun charging
While it can be great to have sun energy on some of your crystals, this is one of the unsafest methods for the crystals. A lot of them will bleach, change color and even crack after prolonged sunlight exposure. If you're leaving crystals in the Sun, I suggest you leave them out for no more than an hour.
Also, watch out for weather changes if you have a crystal that is not waterproof.
Sidenote: if you have crystal necklaces, remember you might also accidentally expose them to sunlight and rain when you wear them outdoors.
Tumblr media
Sun water
Can't have your crystals in the Sun, but it's a fire crystal so you would like it to be charged with sun energy?
If they are water safe, make some sun water, fill a bowl with it, and let your crystals sit in it for a few hours.
Moon water
As long as your crystal is waterproof, it should be fine. Just fill a bowl with moon water and let your crystals be for a few hours.
If you don't know if your crystals are water safe, it's best not to risk it.
_________________♡♤◇♧_________________
Never Ever...
... Expose your crystals to intense heat
No candles, no hot water, no intense sunlight. Not only you will very likely damage your crystal, intense heat and burning of crystals can release toxic fumes.
... Use chemicals to clean crystals
No soaps, alcohol, detergents, salts, etc. They might trigger chemical reactions when in contact with some crystals. So unless you know exactly what you're doing, keep these away from them.
... Touch dissolved crystal water
If you put your crystal in water and a chemical reaction happened, it's best to not touch the water. It could cause skin irritation and intoxication.
Tumblr media
_________________♡♤◇♧_________________
Conclusion
Sometimes we leave crystals outside so that they can be bestowed Nature's blessings, and we forget about them. It happens, as do all accidents.
But you can avoid a lot of damage (yours and theirs) by simply studying about them before submitting them to anything that could be potentially harmful.
Remember your crystals need a lot of love and care, and that goes for their physical care, too. They are unique because of their physical and chemical properties as well, not just spiritual ones.
Thank you for reading and love your crystals!

Hardness: 7.0 mohs How to identify it: A transparent to semi-transparent crystal in an earthy, dusty pink colour. A newly discovered stone, this was first mined in 2019 in Patagonia, Argentina. Pink amethyst gets it dusty pink colour from the inclusion of hematite, where rose quartz gets it from the inclusion of titatium, iron, and manganese.

3-Pile Tarot Reading - What is it about you that makes others mentally kneel in front of you?
I have prepared a reading where you pick one of the three piles (or two or all of them) based on which resonates with you. Then you scroll to the reading for your pile.
Clear and simple, right? Shall we begin?
What is it about you that makes others mentally kneel in front of you?
Tumblr media
Pile 1 - Aura Quartz - 14 Bhadra Kali
Pile 2 - Selenite (Desert Rose) - 7 Dakshina
Pile 3 - Clear Quartz - Bhairavi Yogini
Pick the pile or piles you feel most drawn to!
See you in your reading!
P.S. Don't worry, I'm also working on the requested readings and you will get at least one today.
3-Pile Tarot Reading
Pile 1 - Aura Quartz - 14 Bhadra Kali
Tumblr media
You are the creator of your own destiny and others are left in awe about it. You have goals, dreams, ambitions and you know how to achieve them step by stem. You are not the one to start feeling cold feet when an obstacle comes in your way. You are courageous, a fighter in your soul. Life hasn’t always been kind to you, it might have roughed your feathers more than once but here you still are, standing proudly and with a vision in front of you. You don’t know what boredom is as you have so many creative and groundbreaking ideas that you simply don’t have time to feel stuck. You have your emotions under control most of the time and you are likely the motherly kind of person, always taking care of others, being their trusty rock in the stormy seas of life. Your own life is likely a hurricane but you live by the saying “Calm sea never made a skilled sailor”. While you do go through rough times, you are still somewhat protected from serious harm. In your case, gods protect the courageous ones.
Pile 2 - Selenite (Desert Rose) - 7 Dakshina
Tumblr media
You are the survivor and people admire that about you. You have been through some tough times, you had to deal with fear and make difficult choices where none of the options looked ideal. You have been to dark places once. However, you have found your light, you have said the prayers to take you through the abyss safely, you took that step into the unknown, you made the hard choice and you have broken the cycle of manipulation and fear. You have trusted your guts and won over the inner insecurities and anxieties which were chaining you up and making you vulnerable in the eyes of others. You are that person no more now. You have found the path of self-love, passion, respect. You are now at the beginning of an exciting journey. You are building healthy relationships now, you love your new self.
Pile 3 - Clear Quartz - Bhairavi Yogini
Tumblr media
You are authentic and people are envious about that. You might have been insecure in the past, maybe never felt truly loved or beautiful but you have learned that true beauty comes within. It’s not only appearance, it’s the confidence you radiate. You are on the right path, you are true to yourself, you don’t let others decide what’s good for you. Sometimes people don’t understand your direction and the path you are walking. That’s fine. This path wasn’t meant for them, it’s yours. You don’t take anything for granted, you don’t follow others obediently. You ask questions, investigate and make your own conclusions and have your own opinions. It might lead to conflicts with other people, your friends and relatives might feel disappointed when you choose the path they didn’t imagine for you. You should know, you are protected and any fear or negativity will be erased away from your path as long as it’s authentic for you.
I hope you liked this little game type of a reading. Let me know in the comments which pile you picked. As usual, pick what resonates with you and dismiss the rest.
Thank you for your attention!
Thank you for reading!

I love your work, sorry for the long question <3 you said Desert Rose is in charge of evaluating the way gem culture is represented, how do they do that?
You also said that Gypsums evaluate gems from different facilities, so which gems (and from what facilities) does Desert Rose evaluate?
Gem culture is a category under how buildings are being built, how art is represented, how themes are being shown.
I believe there are four types of gypsums, alabaster, selenite, satin spar and desert rose. Desert Rose inspects work under gem culture. Satin spar inspects work under military. Alabaster inspects work under technology. Selenite inspects the higher ranked gems and how they use their authority.

Mineral Swag Round 1: Desert Roses
Tumblr media Tumblr media
More information and pictures of desert roses under the cut!
Gypsum is a soft colorless mineral. It’s the reference mineral for a 2 on the Mohs Hardness Scale. It is what plaster or drywall or sheetrock is made of! You can scratch it with your fingernail.
Tumblr media
And, there’s this really cool gypsum sample where you can SEE when the crystal stopped growing and some dust or dirt or debris or SOMETHING was deposited, showing a shadow of the size and shape of the crystal at that time. The professor who I worked with at the mineral museum showed me this sample on the first day and was SO excited that you could really see the formation history of this sample. I tried to match her enthusiasm whenever I showed people that sample because it really is cool.
Selenite is also a form of gypsum. Selenite is gypsum that is clear and typically in long prismatic crystals.
Tumblr media
Anyway, gypsum also sometimes forms desert roses, AS DOES BARITE which is why I paired them together. I was taught that these roses form when silica sand gets all caught between the growing crystal, which causes the petals of the roses to grow in different directions or causes the petals to be encrusted with the sand.

A barite rose:

Barite (or baryte depending on where you’re from) is also a source of barium.

Do you have an idea for what a Desert Rose and a Cat's Eye Marialite would fuse into?
Something like muscovite or selenite maybe (especially if the desert rose is of the gypsum variety)!!
