Selenite, to me, is one of the most important stones to have in your collection. Selenite is a cleansing stone that never needs to be cleansed. She is constantly pulling in all less than light energy and transmuting it to the divine. She never stops working, even when the area is clear she sits and waits and clears any negative energy that comes into her path. She works closely with Archangel Michael who is often said to “vacuum negative energy” from the aura when called to. I believe that Michael’s powerful sword is forged with a selenite blade.
This intense and constant cleansing makes selenite a welcome companion during meditations and healings. In meditation she is constantly cleansing, thus cleansing the chakras. When the chakras are cleansed, they align. And when they align you are better able to connect with the divine. In healing all too often chakras are blocked with past trauma. Selenite aides the healer in removing those blocks so that there is space for the healing to begin.
Though Selenite is constantly cleansing, she doesn’t need to be cleaned - in fact, please don’t try to clean her - especially with water or salt. She is delicate and her gypsum mineral base is actually water soluble. She is soft as minerals go and salt would damage her. Her crystal structure is thousands of tiny hair-like crystals all growing together as one, thus she may shed a bit. And she will pick up oils from your hands or ash, etc. from ceremonies your have her participate in and she is still “clean” and cleansing all the same. Even if her appearance is not quite as white from use, she is still beautiful selenite and she is working.
Selenite Grows in what I call logs, long rectangular crystals, and takes her name from the Ancient Greek word for Moon - as she is pearly white with a glow about her. Some of the largest Crystals ever found have been Selenite. The Naica Mine in Mexico is home to crystals so large they make people look like ants. Further proof of the immense energy generated by crystals is the protective suits geologists had to wear to study this mine. The temperatures in the mine reached 136℉ and due to health concerns the mine was closed in 2015. It was then flooded and the Selenite was allowed to continue to grow.
Selenite is water soluble and should never be left on an outdoor altar or in a humid bathroom, however She will grow in water if the conditions are right. She needs steady heat and a magma source to provide the right combination for growth.
Black Tourmaline is celebrated as a natural filter, transforming dense energies into lighter vibrations and maintaining a serene atmosphere around you. It is particularly beneficial in environments where negative influences are unavoidable, providing a layer of energetic insulation. Whether facing challenges from a difficult coworker or navigating family dynamics, Black Tourmaline serves as a gentle guardian, ensuring peace and protection remain paramount.
At its core, Black Tourmaline resonates with the Root Chakra, enhancing one's connection to the Earth and fostering a sense of security and belonging. It supports emotional and physical balance, aiding those who wear Tourmaline jewelry, such as bracelets, to feel more grounded and steady. Its ability to diffuse negativity extends to the physical realm, offering protection from the omnipresent EMFs generated by devices integral to our daily lives.
Sometimes, Black Tourmaline may show signs of wear or even break, a testament to its dedication to your well-being. In these moments, it is believed that the stone has absorbed intense negativity on your behalf, a true act of sacrifice for your protection. This characteristic underscores the importance of quality in Black Tourmaline, as variations with higher Mica content may be more prone to crumbling but are no less effective in their protective duties.
Astrological Affinities and Healing Qualities
While Black Tourmaline is not traditionally associated with a specific birthstone month, it holds a special resonance with Capricorn and Scorpio.
