How Soul Magik Prepares Your Selenite Crystal

At Soul Magik, each selenite crystal undergoes a sacred cleansing and activation process before reaching your hands. 

This ensures that the crystal you receive is energetically charged, spiritually clean, and ready to serve its purpose. 

The Soul Magik 3-step cleansing ritual is designed to preserve the highest vibrational integrity of every crystal.

Selenite Crystal Cleansing – The Soul Magik 3-Step Ritual

Step 1: Sound Vibration Cleansing
Each selenite crystal is exposed to specific sound frequencies using Tibetan singing bowls or tuning forks. These high vibrations break apart negative energy stored in the crystal and reset its energetic frequency.

Step 2: Moonlight Charging
The cleansed selenite crystals are placed under the full moon to absorb natural lunar energy. Moonlight enhances their spiritual properties and restores their innate healing vibration.

Step 3: Reiki Healing Infusion
A certified Reiki practitioner infuses each selenite crystal with loving, intentional energy. This reiki activation aligns the crystal with your highest good and spiritual growth.

This triple-layered ritual ensures your crystal is energetically pure and ready to work with your unique spiritual journey.

How to Care for and Cleanse Your Selenite Crystal

Although selenite crystal is self-cleansing, it’s still good practice to care for it properly to maintain its energy and physical form.

Avoid Water
Selenite is a soft mineral (Mohs hardness: 2), and it can dissolve in water. Never clean it with water or place it in humid environments.

Dusting
Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the surface. Avoid using liquids, sprays, or ultrasonic cleaners.

Energetic Maintenance
If your selenite has been heavily used in rituals, energy healing, or emotional release work, you can energetically refresh it using:

• Moonlight (especially full moon)
  
  

• Sound therapy (bells, singing bowls)
  
  

• Reiki or visualization practices
  
  

The Symbolism and Spiritual Meaning of Selenite Crystal

Selenite crystal is named after Selene, the ancient Greek goddess of the moon. The soft white glow of the crystal is symbolic of divine feminine energy, intuition, and purity.

Spiritually, selenite is considered a bridge between the earthly and the spiritual. It assists in deepening meditation, connecting with spirit guides, and accessing past life information. 

It’s an ideal stone for spiritual seekers, energy healers, and anyone working on raising their personal vibration.
