CARING FOR CRYSTALS THE FENG SHUI WAY


Crystals are natural energy generators. They attract, store and also transmit energy. Therefore, we need to regularly cleanse the crystals in our possession to rid them of any negative energy that they may have picked up.
Can you imagine the amount of energy, both positive and negative, that the crystals might have attracted and stored before you bought it and then took it home? Crystal experts say that each person leaves a residue of their energy on the surface of a crystal that he/she has touched and this accumulation of energy is not necessarily good. It is because of this that the crystal is not as sparkling as it should be. Therefore, it is advisable to give it a good cleanse after you bring it home or once in a while after it has been your home for some time. Some shops have a cleansing service done for their customers after they have purchased the crystals and so that already saves them the trouble of doing it themselves.

Here are some ways to cleanse your crystals:
  1. First rinse the crystal in lukewarm water and then air dry it before placing it in the freezer for three days. The crystal will come out sparkling and thoroughly cleansed. It is good to protect the crystal by placing it on piece of cardboard or a small basket but this is optional.

  2. Another way is by using sea water. If not a mixture of sea salt and water would also do. Let the crystals soak for a day or two in the sea water. Then take them out and rinse them thoroughly before let them dry naturally.

  3. Moon rays are another powerful cleanser for crystals. On the night of a full moon, leave the crystals out and let the rays from the full moon do their magic. This is good for crystals that might be easily damaged by salt or the freezing process.

  4. We can use earth energy to cleanse the crystals. How? You can bury them for a few days in the earth to cleanse them.

  5. To clean crystal jewellery, one can place the piece on a freshly cleansed large crystal and leave it for a day or two. This is the best and safest way to cleanse jewellery that is a mixture of metal and crystal.
