Are you into crystals? You’re in the right place. This post will teach you 5 ways to cleanse and charge your crystals with the full moon and why you should.

If you are anything like me then you completely understand the magic of crystals. Crystals offer a pathway to connecting with the Earth's energy and nurturing our spiritual well-being. Whether you're a seasoned crystal enthusiast or just beginning to explore their potential, these natural wonders can serve as powerful tools for enhancing various aspects of your spiritual journey. By harnessing the energies of crystals, you can promote balance, self-discovery, emotional healing, and a deeper connection to the universe around you.

WHY CLEANSE or CHARGE YOUR CRYSTALS?

A Full Moon is typically the best time to cleanse your crystals. When the full moon arrives, it’s time to create space to take stock of what has and hasn’t come to fruition just yet. I use this time to release the energy of things that no longer serve me.

A full moon is a time to get quiet, reflect, and celebrate. Unlike the new moon, the full moon represents fruitfulness and completeness and brings with it a lot of manifesting energy.

So, if you have crystals, I want to use this post to teach you how to cleanse and charge them up with the Full Moon energy, so they can heal you and your home and help you create the life that you want. I just published my newest e-book, The Blissful Living Guide to Feng Shui with Crystals. In the book, I am sharing all the tips and tricks for how to use your crystals at home.

WHY CRYSTALS?

Crystals, with their unique energetic properties, have been used for centuries to enhance well-being and spiritual growth. Just as the Earth's energy affects these precious gems, so does the energy of the celestial bodies that grace our night sky. Among these celestial influences, the full moon stands out as a powerful source of energy. In this blog post, we'll explore the significance of charging your crystals in the full moon and how this practice can amplify their natural energies.

The Connection Between Crystals and Lunar Energy

Crystals are believed to absorb, store, and transmit energy. This energy can be harnessed to enhance various aspects of our lives. The full moon, with its radiant glow and heightened energy, offers a unique opportunity to infuse crystals with its potent vibrations.

CLEANSING YOUR CRYSTALS:

Each crystal has its own specific energy, its own frequency that when placed in the proper position can completely change its environment. There are crystals for everything you can think of or need. Crystals to protect you, to manifest money, to attract love, promote happiness and joy, even crystals to help you de-clutter with ease.

In preparing to use crystals in your home, you always want to work with cleansed crystals. Cleansing your crystal is meant to cleanse all prior energies attached to that crystal, from anyone else’s energy it might have picked up. When your crystal is purified and cleansed, it can take on your intentions in a greater capacity.

How to Charge Your Crystals in the Full Moon

Charging your crystals in the full moon is a simple yet impactful practice. Here's how to do it:

Choose a Suitable Spot: Find a spot where your crystals will be exposed to the moonlight. This could be a windowsill, outdoor space, or any area where they can safely receive the moon's energy.
Cleanse Your Crystals: Before charging, ensure your crystals are clean. You can do this by rinsing them under cool water or smudging them with sage or palo santo.
Set Your Intentions: Take a moment to set your intentions for your crystals. Reflect on what you hope to achieve with their energies and what you're seeking guidance for.
Place Your Crystals: Arrange your cleansed crystals in a way that they will receive direct moonlight. If possible, leave them outside overnight.
Retrieve Your Crystals: In the morning, retrieve your crystals. They are now charged with the moon's energy and your intentions.

5 WAYS TO CLEANSE YOUR CRYSTALS:

In the Moonlight.
You can cleanse your crystals inner energy the best by placing them outside beneath the moonlight, overnight. You can also put them in the window if you don’t have easy access to an outside space. They call this charging up your crystals.
It cleanses and re-calibrates their energy. This gets your crystal powers seriously amplified. The evening of a Full Moon is the optimal time to cleanse your crystals because the energy is super potent. It’s the moon that pulls the ocean waves, so a Full Moon has the strongest energetic effect.
With Smoke.
Each time you buy a new crystal, a unanimously safe way to cleanse it, is by wafting cleansing herbal smoke (like sage or palo santo) all around the crystal. I do this weekly because it works really well on the black crystals which are your protection stones (black obsidian, black onyx and black tourmaline).

3. Use Water.

If your stones are tumbled and not water soluble, you can rinse them under water to physically clean them. If they’re fragile, brittle or raw, use a soft toothbrush to gently scrub away anything that doesn’t belong. Since raw crystals are dug up from the earth, it’s natural to have some dirt and earth matter on them! You do not want any dust piling up on them, keep them very clean. They’re sensitive after all.

4. Selenite or other purification crystals.

Selenite is like a Super Crystal. It is the ultimate purification crystal. Selenite can actually cleanse other crystals. I keep my crystal jewelry on Selenite sticks to cleanse their energy while I am not wearing them. I like to keep selenite in the windows always as they help purify the home too. You can store selenite near or next to your other crystals to keep them cleansed on a daily basis.

5. Sound.

My favorite local crystal shop always uses their bells or gong to cleanse the crystal. Sound vibrations shake up every energetic vibe around it. This can be accomplished by using singing bowls, a tuning fork, or even a nice bell. It doesn’t matter what key the sound is, so long as the sound emitted is loud enough for the vibration to fully encompass the stone. This is really great for cleansing several crystals at the same time.

SETTING YOUR INTENTIONS:

Once you crystals are cleansed, you need to fill them with your intentions because they take on the energy of those who interact with them. So you will want to be really clear and focused on how you use them.

I like to pick them up and hold them with my hands. Close your eyes and speak your intentions to them. It may seem silly at first but once you practice doing this, you will begin to feel the energy exchange between you and your crystals. There does come a point where you fall in love with them and feel weird without them.

I get much deeper into this in my e-book. It’s a 62-page guide that really explains how to use crystals in the home to raise the vibration and manifest the life that you want. Take a look…..
