Energy cleansing of stones. 10 cleaning methods

It is a known fact that stones (minerals) absorb bad energy. And if you use stones constantly, they need to be cleaned. If such manipulations are not carried out, the stone may lose its properties.

If the stone bursts or is damaged, then this indicates an excess of negative energy.

There are several ways to cleanse the energy of amulets made from natural stones. Now let's look at them in more detail. How to clean stones at home.

Method No. 1

A particularly effective way is salt!

As you know, salt is an excellent antiseptic not only for the surrounding areas, but also for favorite amulets of all kinds. It perfectly absorbs negative energy, including the negative energy of stones.

So, to return the stones to their original energetic purity, you only need a little salt and a ceramic plate.

On the waning moon, pour dry salt into a plate, put stones, jewelry, and bracelets in it. In General, everything that, in your opinion, has lost its energetic properties.

If you are worried that salt will ruin the beautiful fittings on the product, then first cover the salt with a cloth, and then place bracelets or our stones on top.

Two hours is enough for a “salt bath” for our pebbles. Then simply rinse the product under running water. And everything is ready, your stones are back in action. Don't forget to wipe the product with a soft cloth.

Basic cleaning rules

There are many ways to remove all the “dirt” from stones. But not every method is applicable for a certain category of minerals. For example, direct sunlight. An amazing way to clean gems. But you need to have information in which cases this should not be done. For example, amethyst, turquoise and rose quartz are afraid of the bright sun. Instead of being freed from negativity, they quickly lose their beauty, become faded and lifeless.

But there are other methods, for example herbs or other natural representatives, which are used for any natural minerals. But you need to be careful with sea salt and freezing. Salt can have a negative effect on the polishing of edges, and excessively low temperatures can lead to cracks and chips. Turquoise, malachite, pyrite, opal, carnelian, amber, onyx, lapis lazuli and other representatives of the world of stones are afraid of these methods.

Method No. 2

And of course, no one has canceled the miraculous properties of water. After all, even we ourselves, after a hard day of work, after standing in the shower for a few minutes, feel like new people. Water from almost any source will do. In general, everything is simple: we place stones in water for 10 minutes, and they are alive again. But here it is important to take into account one point: not all accessories on products like water. If the decoration is just like that, then choose a different cleaning method.

There is also a group of stones that are also not suitable for cleaning in this way. They are afraid of water:

dioptase

fluorite

nacre

malachite

lapis lazuli

sodalite

chrysocolla

These minerals can tarnish when they come into contact with water. And that's the best case scenario. Often such manipulations lead to the destruction of the above minerals.

I also do not recommend cleaning the agate Dzi bead with water. Only in extreme cases.

Esotericists recommend!

Methods for cleaning talismans

Everyone chooses their own method of cleaning their amulet. And there is nothing to invent here. As a rule, the cleaning technique is passed down from generation to generation along with the inheritance of amulets. You can, of course, experiment. It depends on the person and his inner conviction. But whatever method you choose, the main goal must be achieved - restoring the lost properties of the stone for its further use.

Using Moonlight

Most crystals are in harmony with Moonlight. But the most correct days for good cleaning are three days before and the same number after the Full Moon. It is during this period that the Moon’s energy is off the charts, and it is ready to share its wealth with the stones. Moreover, an abundance of clouds, heavy snowfall or heavy rain during the night will not become an obstacle to the exchange of energy force. The only limitation: if the cleansing takes place in an open space or with a window open, then snow and rain should not fall on the gems.

If the stone is heavily contaminated, before exposing it to Moonlight, you need to take a vessel, fill it with clean water, put salt in it and put the gem in it. Place this vessel on the windowsill and hold it for at least three days during the waning moon. When leaving, the Moon will take with it all the negativity accumulated in the stone.

There are stones that need to be cleansed exclusively with Moonlight. Other methods will not be effective. These include belomorite, labradorite, adularia.

Cleanse with the sun's rays

This is a wonderful way to help your gemstones cleanse themselves. Crystals with red, yellow, pink, orange tints are very fond of sunbathing. How to clean this way? It is enough to place the stones in open sunlight for 2-3 hours. It is best to choose an open space: a front garden, a forest clearing. But a window sill will also do. The only condition is the presence of good weather and bright sunshine throughout this period.

If the minerals were used to combat a serious illness, were in the hands of scoundrels, or were inherited from a deceased relative, then it is worth carrying out a deep cleaning. To do this, the gems are taken out into the open and left there for a week, or 10 days. The presence of sunlight is necessary, otherwise a positive result will not be achieved.

Good places to place crystals are on the branches of trees and shrubs or in close proximity to their root systems. Before using minerals for sunbathing, you should rinse them thoroughly under warm running water and then rinse with cold water. For some stones, a three-hour procedure is enough, even with the window closed. In cloudy weather, cleansing may not be possible.

Amethyst, aquamarine, green apophyllite, ametrine, turquoise, rose quartz, smoky quartz, prasiolite, opal, kunzite, citrine, fluorite, topaz are very fond of the Sun. But there are also those for whom prolonged exposure to the sun is contraindicated. This can lead to a change in their color and destruction of the structure.

The maximum exposure of stones to sunlight is as follows:

• citrine – 5 minutes;
• amethyst – quarter of an hour;
• aventurine - quarter of an hour;
• aquamarine – 5 minutes;
• lapis lazuli – 7 minutes;
• rose quartz – 65 minutes;
• sodalite – 8 minutes;
• fluorite – quarter of an hour;
• mother of pearl – 30 minutes.

What determines the purity of stones? The sufficiency of the procedure can be understood:

• by the appearance of smoothness and silkiness of the stone surface;
• it becomes pleasant in the hands;
• feels fresh and cool;
• the color is bright and rich;
• even in the absence of transparency of the mineral, the internal glow of a pure aura is visible;
• if you take the stone in your hands, your mood rises, your well-being improves, adversity and worries go away, strength and positive emotions are added;
• when wearing the mineral, a feeling of complete comfort appears;
• he exudes strength and power.

Clean with water

Another unique way to rid a stone of negativity is plain water. It is considered a means of purifying both the physical and energetic components of the mineral. Moreover, you can use both running water and water baths. But holy water or collected from a clean source is best. Experts in this field agreed that the most effective water would be river, sea or any other natural sources. It is considered alive because it is constantly in motion. Such water can not only perfectly cleanse minerals of negativity, but also recharge them with active energy.

If possible, you should put the mineral in a stream or river for a while. It is the water flow that washes away all negative information. But if this is not possible, then you should resort to a passive or active cleaning method. The passive method is as follows: take a small container, put a stone in it and place it under running water for 10 minutes. With the active method, the minerals must be held in your hands all the time while water flows over them. At the same time, you look at them, come into contact with them, which has a positive effect on their cleaning. You can even feel how all the dirt is washed away, the aura becomes clean, strength and energy are restored. But this procedure is longer and can take 5 – 7 minutes.

Basic rule: never wipe off minerals after a shower. They should dry on their own. For greater benefits, you should light a candle and place gems next to it. This will enhance the effectiveness of actions.

There are certain limitations to this procedure, since not all stones can be water cleaned. It is necessary to take into account their properties and characteristics. So, if minerals are able to dissolve in water or lose their qualities when interacting with it, then such an idea should be abandoned. As for citrine, he prefers to wash only under cold water. Rhodochrosite does not like water, so you should wash it no more than a couple of times within 10 days and with special care so as not to damage the polish.

It is necessary to avoid cleaning dioptase, fluorite, mother-of-pearl, malachite, lapis lazuli, chrysocolla, and sodalite with water. They may soon begin to deteriorate and become dull. When interacting with water, selenite can disappear before our eyes. It is strictly forbidden to spray stones with water after they have been in direct sunlight for a long time. This will lead to their tarnishing, splits, and cracks.

It is also worth finding another method of purification for halite, astrophyllite, heulandite, selenite, muscovite, kyanite, gypsum, seraphinite, uvarovite, stilbite, chermigite, celestite, chrysocolla, fuchsia slate. Water negatively affects their physical properties, completely dissolving them. Therefore, you need to choose salt, sun, moon, herbs and other means of purification for them.

It is worth giving up sea water for apophyllite, aquamarine, turquoise, belomorite, cachalong, calcite, labradorite, hematite, opal, onyx, rhodochrosite, rhodonite, pyrite, ulexite, amber, carnelian, eudialyte. The presence of salt in water can negatively affect their physical properties.

We use other crystals for cleaning

But not all stones are suitable for these purposes. To use this method, you must have:

• amethyst brush;
• selenite stick;
• carnelian crystals;
• quartz.

This method is quite simple. Contaminated stones should be placed nearby on the windowsill or in the same box with “cleaners” and left for a couple of hours. But the minerals that are used for cleaning, in turn, must be perfectly clean. Otherwise, a positive result will not be achieved.

Brown rice or sea salt

These are also effective methods, and using brown rice is preferable as it will not harm the surface minerals, unlike sea salt. The cleaning method is quite simple. You need to take a small container, pour sea salt or brown rice into it and “bury” the mineral in it, leaving it for 3 days. Once the cleaning is completed, the stones are washed under running water and left to dry naturally. It must be remembered that the repeated use of salt and rice must be avoided. After cleaning, all this is thrown away.

Sonic cleaning

This cleansing involves Tibetan or crystal singing bowls. It is the sounds of such objects that cause the vibrations of stones to be restored to their original state. These devices are able to free gems from other people’s negative energy and help them tune into a positive mood. In addition to singing bowls, you can use Tibetan drums or cymbals, bells, and tuning forks. If only the stones were exposed to a pleasant, soothing and cleansing sound.

Reiki session

This method will make it possible to recharge the crystals, cleanse them and provide them with additional energy. You don't need any equipment for this. You must have a good mood, a positive emotional attitude and a desire to cleanse your minerals of negativity.

We take the gems in our palms, mentally wish them to cleanse and recover, direct all our positive energy to them and blow on them three times, inhaling and exhaling deeply. This healing breath will have a beneficial effect on the crystals and help restore your energy to its original state. The main condition is the absence of strangers at this event.

Fumigation

For this method you will need herbs that are set on fire. They mainly prefer sage, lavender, cedar, sweet grass, bedstraw, and wormwood. All of them, or whatever you have, are dried, mixed and scorched to create smoke. Under no circumstances should you use a lighter, only matches. To create a light smoke screen, you can use a small sheet of cardboard, which is used to fan the smoldering herbs.

Then take the stone in your palms and hold it directly under the stream of smoke. The duration of the procedure depends on how dirty the stone has become. This could be a couple of minutes, or it could take up to half an hour. In this way, you can clean not only the stones, but also yourself, as well as the room in which you live.

Elixir

You can purchase it or make it yourself. To do this, you need carnelian, which is placed in crystal clear water and left for 15 days. It is best to pour the finished elixir into a spray bottle and treat all dirty stones with it. The main thing to remember is that stones that are afraid of water should not be subjected to this procedure.

Flower petals

You need to collect a whole bowl of petals from the flowers that you like or that bloom at this time of year. The gem is dropped into the bowl and left for several hours. The main thing is that the flowers grow in an open field or in an unpolluted area and are full of vitality before you pick them.

Earth

A flower pot in the house and a dacha plot of land are suitable for this. Place the crystal there and leave for 15 minutes. Afterwards, rinse it under warm running water and leave it to dry on the windowsill, after laying it on a soft cloth. The earth will absorb all the negativity, leaving only positive properties.

But carefully study the characteristics of the stones before using this method. The main thing is that after such cleaning, the minerals remain intact, with an intact coating and a bright shade.

Saline solutions

This method must be used with extreme caution so as not to further damage the stones. Aquamarine, calcite, labradorite, turquoise, belomorite, opal, onyx, malachite, carnelian, pyrite, amber and other gems are afraid of saline solution. Take a container, pour clean water and add salt to it at the rate of 2 tablespoons per liter of water. Then we put the stone in a saline solution and leave it for several hours or several days, depending on the amount of negativity absorbed. After the procedure, the stones are removed and washed well with warm running water. They dry on their own, without outside help.

Method No. 4

Black classic candle

Great option. You can also clean yourself and your jewelry. I would say kill two birds with one stone.

On the waning moon, light a candle. Nearby we place a bracelet, stones, earrings (everything that needs to be cleaned). While the candle is burning, the amulets should lie nearby. As soon as the candle goes out, the amulets, and your own energy, are fine. Can be worn until your next cleaning. Important: the waste (residues) from the candle must be thrown into the trash, and the garbage itself must be taken out of the house immediately.

Some tips before using stones

Cleansing the stone should be done immediately as soon as it comes to you. And in order for the energy of the stone to help you, you need to follow some rules:

• the stone needs time to adjust to the new owner, so you should not wear and use it immediately after purchase;
• All new stones require cleaning;
• rest period after cleaning. The stone should replenish its strength after cleansing, so let it sit quietly for 5-7 days.
• the stone must be periodically charged with pure energy;
• treat the stone with care, it remembers all the vibrations emanating from you and will respond in kind;
• do not give the stone to other hands if you do not want it to absorb someone else’s energy;
• Remember to periodically cleanse and restore the energy of the stone throughout.

Method No. 7

When should stones be cleaned?

Here is a short list of situations when a stone needs to be cleaned:

• 
  if you have just purchased a stone, bought it in a store;

  Read also:  The meaning of rings on men’s fingers: from the big to the little finger
• if it was given to you. Even a gift from a loved one should be cleansed of negative energy, because... it could have penetrated the stone earlier;
• if you inherited the stone. As a rule, such a mineral carries the energy of its former owner;
• if you just found a stone. Because If you don’t know what happened to the stone, who it belonged to and what events it captured, then it must be cleaned.
• if you use stones for healing or cleansing space. If stones are used intensively, they must be cleaned regularly;
• if a person you don’t like touches the stone;
• if you feel that the stone has lost its properties. When a stone is used frequently, over time it becomes overwhelmed with various energies and needs to be cleansed;
• if your stone has not been used for a long time. Even if the stone just lies there, it still continues to absorb the energy surrounding it.

In all these cases, the stone can accumulate and store a huge amount of negative information, which not only has a detrimental effect on the owner, but also minimizes the properties of the stone itself.

Don't know how to clean pearls or pearl beads?

Pearls can become cloudy and lose their shine over time. To clean pearls

To restore it to its original appearance, it is enough to periodically give jewelry with pearls soft soap baths of low concentration, followed by drying.

Why is it so important to cleanse your crystals?

Crystal cleansing has two important purposes. First, it is helpful to rinse the stones with clean water to remove dirt and dust. At the same time, you launch your magical awareness and mentally prepare for the next stage, namely the energetic cleansing of the stones. Clearing the energy of stones is not so tangible. However, you need to understand that stones collect energy from different sources and hold it for some time. If you are going to charge your crystals, it is important to learn how to cleanse them to get rid of this accumulated energy before you begin the magical work itself.

Just as crystals can be charged with positive energy, negative energy can also be stored inside a stone. For example, you may have worked with a crystal to protect yourself from negative influences. You may have even visualized a crystal absorbing negative energies around you. After the crystal has spent some time in your presence, “absorbing” these heavy energies, you may unwittingly begin to feel and experience them. This is why it is so important to cleanse your stones.

I have 5 simple crystal clearing methods that will help remove this negative invisible energy ballast in no time.

Interesting Facts

Quartz stone is the best material for making magnifying lenses. Compared to their glass counterpart, quartz lenses have a greater safety margin and higher transparency.

One of the most amazing quartz products is considered to be a Mayan skull, which was discovered during archaeological excavations on the Yucatan Peninsula. Despite the fact that the product was cut from a piece of mineral (it must be said, not the most malleable material to process), it reproduced in detail the anatomical features of the human skull. Interestingly, the quartz skull exudes a sweet and sour aroma, the origin of which remains a mystery.

Black quartz, also called morion, undergoes strange metamorphoses under the influence of X-rays and high temperatures. If the mineral is heated to +300 C, it will acquire an original golden hue. Under the influence of a temperature of +400 C, the stone will become colorless. But as soon as you irradiate it with x-rays, the quartz returns to its original color.

Caring for natural stone. How to clean jewelry with stones?

First of all, when caring for natural and precious stones, it is necessary to take into account their level of hardness. Stones such as diamond, sapphire, emerald, aquamarine, topaz, quartz have a high level of hardness and ordinary washing powder is quite suitable for cleaning them. The stones should be placed in an aqueous solution of washing powder for a while, and then lightly massaged with a soft brush (you can use an old toothbrush with soft bristles or a men's shaving brush). If the stones have inclusions, then you should be extremely careful, since they have a heterogeneous structure and this reduces the hardness coefficient, the stone can be damaged and chipped. If your stones are not set, then it is better to store them in soft suede or flannel bags, separately from each other.

A simple method that is especially important for thoroughly cleaning your stones, minerals that are worshiped, for example, because labradorite, which cannot be in direct contact with salt. Indirect purification of minerals. What you need is simple and inexpensive.

Hollow plate, glass, coarse salt are easy to find. Take an empty glass and simply place it on a plate. The pictured green stone you see is an emerald because it cannot safely touch the salt. Leave your minerals on for 2 or more small hours or so if you find it beneficial and finally throw away the salt that has captured the negative energies of its minerals.

Symptoms and consequences of tartar

Patients experience the following symptoms:

• bad breath;
• bleeding gums;
• caries;
• purulent discharge;
• gingivitis;
• pulpitis;
• periodontitis – inflammation of tissue areas near the root of the tooth;
• mobility and tooth loss.

Gingivitis

The initial form of gum disease.

If left untreated, gingivitis can develop into periodontitis, which is a serious, irreversible gum disease and the most common cause of tooth loss in adults.

The main 4 signs of gingivitis:

1. Bleeding gums. Healthy gums do not bleed. If blood comes out when using a toothbrush or floss, this may indicate the onset of gingivitis. Even if it happens from time to time. The symptom should not be ignored as it may be a sign of the onset of gum disease.
2. Unpleasant smell. There are many reasons for a bad odor: specific foods, poor hygiene, but it can also be the first sign of gingivitis. This is due to the fact that the bacteria that cause gum disease produce an unpleasant odor by breaking down food particles in the mouth.
3. Swollen gums. They are usually pink and firm. Redness and swelling may indicate the onset of the disease.
4. Receding gums. They begin to separate, and the root of the tooth is exposed, the incisors appear longer. Increased sensitivity is another sign.

A common cause of toothache is inflammation of the dental nerve, called pulpitis. Anyone suffering from this should seek help from a dentist as soon as possible.

Pulpitis

In acute pulpitis, pain usually occurs spontaneously. The pain may be constant or occur periodically. In rare cases, the inflammatory process is completely painless.

If the affected tooth is sensitive to pressure and impact, this is a sign of a dead dental nerve. It hurts when you touch the tongue, but especially when you squeeze it. The pain is often worse at night, as the warmth of the bed increases the inflammatory process. If left untreated, bacteria from the medullary cavity of the tooth can penetrate through the hole at the root tip into the surrounding bone and soft tissue. Accordingly, inflammation spreads, the cheek and lymph nodes swell.

Periodontitis

Periodontal disease is defined as chronic inflammatory disease of the gums. It is mainly caused by bacterial plaque (biofilm, plaque), especially in old age.

As a result of inflammation, your teeth may hurt and your gums may bleed more easily. If left untreated, periodontitis can also lead to tooth loss.

Patients with periodontitis usually show few symptoms at first. However, some signs may indicate the disease:

• bleeding gums;
• red and swollen gums;
• Gum recession;
• open and sensitive necks of teeth;
• putrid odor from the mouth;
• unpleasant taste, especially when pus leaks from the inflamed areas;
• The spaces between the teeth widen;
• loose teeth, misaligned teeth.

Charging stones

Stones cleared of negative energy must be charged, that is, they must accumulate positive energy that comes from the Universe. The most ideal days for performing the procedure are the summer solstice. Sunlight or moonlight is used for charging. Take your “treasures”, take them outside, into the garden, into the forest, spread them out and let the sun warm them with its warmth, transfer its power. Try not to have anyone nearby.

But since the summer solstice is only 3 days a year, you can use moonlight to charge the crystals. To do this, the Moon must be in the full moon phase. Take the stones outside and hold them in such a way that the radiation from the “night light” hits the stones. Another interesting way of lunar recharging: fill a bowl with clean water, go out into the open air with it and “catch” the moon’s rays so that the Moon is reflected in the water. After this, immerse the gem in water and leave it there for a while. Once removed from the water, do not wipe the crystal, let it dry naturally.

A purified, charged mineral cannot be worn immediately. Let him lie down for a while and “rest.” Please note that stones can only be charged after cleaning.

Cleaning products

To wash, polish, and clean pearls at home, use filtered, non-hot water, soft hygroscopic fabrics: flannel, velvet, suede, microfiber, cosmetic sponges.

Used if you need to rinse pearls after wearing them. Warm water washes away the remaining sweat, grease, and dust before they become ingrained.

Jewelry can be cleaned perfectly with very fine salt and water (2.5 tablespoons per half liter of water). It is advisable to spend money on sea food, but regular finely ground food (extra) also works effectively.

There are three options:

1. The jewelry is placed in a cotton or linen bag or wrapped in a napkin with salt. Immerse in warm water for half an hour, rinse lightly and massage. Point contamination can be scraped off with a fingernail (without fanaticism).
2. To prevent accessories with clasps and metal decor from being scratched, the bag with pearls and salt is not massaged, but placed under running warm water. Wash until the salt dissolves, rinse. Metal is cleaned separately.
3. Rings, earrings, and other small accessories are immersed in a warm salt bath for 12–15 minutes. Dry on a towel, polish with velvet cloth or suede.

The procedure allows you to clean the gem and restore its whiteness and shine.

Soap, gel, shampoo

A time-tested way to clean pearls. Children's or soft varieties are taken - without dyes and flavors.

It is not advisable to clean pearls with hard soap: it contains a lot of alkali.

It is important to choose the right cleaning option for your jewelry, especially your necklace.

1. A cotton sponge is rubbed with soap, the product is carefully wiped, then rinsed.
2. A napkin or cotton pad is moistened with a mixture of liquid soap (two to three tablespoons per liter of water).
3. Each pearl is wiped and rinsed with water.

The second is to clean freshwater pearl beads or accessories with small inserts:

1. The products are immersed in a weak soapy solution for 8–12 minutes.
2. Take out, rinse, dry with a soft cloth.

Dirt and yellowishness are removed.

There will be no soap film left on the surface of the product if it is rinsed after the procedure.

To clean jewelry made from river material, Mallorca, and other artificial varieties (including soufflé), use a makeup brush. To soak, they are immersed in soapy water.

Starch

One of the best folk remedies for cleaning. Potato or corn is suitable:

• starch is thickly sprinkled on velvet cloth or microfiber;
• put a pearl product on top and wrap it up;
• carefully wipe each bead or insert;
• the remaining starch is washed off;
• blot the decoration and leave it to dry.

Starch allows you to get rid of yellowness, polishes, returning the shine of pearls, and “pulls out” excess moisture.

If the products are not very dirty, they are placed in a closed container with starch. Shake for a few minutes, remove the jewelry, and wash.

Sun

Sunbathing (several hours) whitens pearls. More than one session may be needed. The main thing is not to overheat the jewelry and wrap it with a soft cloth after the “therapeutic” procedure.

Paste

The easiest way to clean pearls is to use jewelry pastes. The product is applied to a napkin, which is used to wipe the beads or inserts. Next, the product is rinsed and dried. Dirt is removed guaranteed and effortlessly.

Disadvantages: pasta is expensive, not always available ; Pearls wear out due to frequent use.

Some more tips about stones

• Stones should be cleaned regularly. If you constantly wear the stone on you, then such cleaning should be carried out once every 1.5-2 months. If you use it from time to time, then one cleaning every six months will be enough. If stones are used in healing work, then cleansing should be carried out each time before and after the session. If your stone is just lying there, then clean it once a year.

• If your stone, even after cleansing, has not become stronger, if it has become dull, if chips and cracks have appeared on it, then it has already done its job and it’s time to part with it.
• It often happens that jewelry with stones gets lost. There is no need to worry about this, the stone has either already lost its power, or played the role of a shield and took the blow aimed at you, so it simply “left”.
• You should not keep broken stones or stones with defects, because... they can attract negative energy, and, consequently, troubles into the life of their owner.
• It is better to store stones in a dark, secluded place. You can wrap them in cloth and put them in a box.
