Cleansing with running water
Hold hard, water-safe stones under cool running water for a minute and picture the old energy washing away. Many crystals can't take water, so check first.
Hold the item under a cool stream, river or tap for 30 to 60 seconds while you picture the water carrying away anything stagnant. Pat it dry afterward.
Keep these away from water entirely: selenite (it dissolves), desert rose, halite, malachite, pyrite (it rusts), angelite, calcite and lepidolite. When you're not sure about a stone, choose sound or moonlight instead.
Works well for
- Clear quartz
- Amethyst
- Hard, polished stones
- Metal ritual tools
Try this
Rinse one water-safe stone while saying out loud what you're washing off it. Notice whether it feels any different in your hand afterward.
Crystal safety matters: some stones fade in sun, and some dissolve, rust or become unsafe to handle when wet. When in doubt, choose sound or moonlight, which are safe for every stone. Never leave smoke or flame unattended.
