    At the time of filming this video, I wasn't aware of any cultural ties to the usage of white sage, which I am now aware of. It's becoming more widely known that we should stay away from using that, and while I can't go back and take that out of the video, I can tell you tons of other ways to cleanse stones here!
    1. Moonlight- You can either lay them outside, on the grass, or on a windowsill. If you don't get direct moonlight, don't worry.
    2. Submerge the stone in salt - Completely submerge the stones in the salt and allow it to sit for a few hours, pat the salt off.
    3. Submerge the stone in rice - Same as salt, submerge the stone in rice and allow it to sit for a few hours, pat the rice off.
    4. Sound - Collect your stones into one area, and if you have a singing bowl or a tuning fork, play the sound anywhere from 5-10 minutes. f you don't have either of those, don't worry. UA-cam has many many many sound healing videos. Search gong baths, singing bowls, binaural beats, meditation music, etc.
    5. Visualization - I feel like this may be intimidating to some of you, but you can trust yourself. Sit with your stone or stones and get grounded. Maybe listen to some meditation music for a few minutes to help you do that. Imagine your hands are filling with energy. Like white radiant light. Envision the light swirling around inside of the stones, swishing around all the impurities, and flushing them out of the stone.
    6. Water - Research the stone's reaction to water, cause some can ruin a stone. Generally, if it ends in -ite, don't put it in water. Run it under a faucet, in a stream, river, rainwater, bird bath, whatever you want. You can't go wrong...unless the stone shouldn't go in the water lol
    7. Incense - light incense and hold the stone over the smoke.
    8. Selenite- the easiest in my opinion! Have a piece of selenite near your stone, it cleanses all of the stones around it.

      @@kaloric Yes, if your culture uses specifically white sage (different cultures use different types so be aware of the type of sage your culture uses so you don't end up using another cultures closed practise), then you can definitely use it for your cleansing rituals. Keep in mind one of the main contributors to the endangerment of white sage is buying from unauthentic distributors (mass production or overharvesting), so keep an eye out for "ethical" sage distributors. My culture also uses white sage and i buy from locals/family members in my area. Your mother probably knows a good place to buy from (:
      P.s. To anyone else reading this, keep in mind that even though a distributor sells "ethically", it is still a closed practise and should only be bought from these vendors if you are of the culture. ***Remember that Palo Santo wood is also a closed practise and is endangered/overharvested!***

    Some crystals do not react well to being left out in sunlight or put in water. Putting Selenatite in water would destroy it. Always a good idea to research your crystals before cleansing. That's why I prefer to use incense. Or Sage. Pretty much can't hurt a stone that way

    Free tip:
    You can find quartz variants easily on mountainous hikes. If you’d like you can set an intention to find a crystal while on a hike, stay aware and your manifestation will likely come true. It’s really good for the environment to find one local + not mined. Bonus is it’s already cleansed and has never been used before.
    You can also cleanse your crystals with herbs beyond sage. See what you can forage! It might be easy for you to find rosemary or lavender where you live, collect a bunch full and let it dry for a while.
    Other cleansers: sound, visualisation, water (Make sure if you put a crystal in water that it’s water resistant), moonlight, sunlight, grounded upon earth.

    I have a bunch of crystals that was given to me by an old neighbor (she passed away right after. God rest her soul.) and then I bought a few crystal bracelets not knowing there's was more to these crystals than just names and cool meanings. 😰 I've always been attracted to crystals but never did any research as to why and what does it mean for me. After doing some research I went out and bought a selenite bowl to use as a crystal cleansing tool. I wiped my stones with a soft cloth, placed them in the bowl and set it on my dresser next to my bed or my window when there's a full moon. I felt so much lighter after doing that.

My favorite crystal ever that I was immediately drawn to has such a wonderful back story and always makes me happy. I have a huge desert rose that I’ve had since 2019 when I visited England. I brought her back with me all the way to America and she didn’t break a bit. I always have felt a connection with her. Some of my favorite crystals are those that have back stories that I’ll always remember.Two others are some old crystals my mom has had since she was fifteen and just recently passed them down to me. My mom was not spiritual about crystals at all, however they remind me of her.

    I will hold my crystals or one I’m thinking of buying, and I ask it to show me their energy, my hand will get all tingly and numb and pulsate, that’s when I know it’s meant to come home with me, or is content where I keep it in my home… I take care of my crystal babies, I cleanse, and weather permitting I put them outside on a full moon..over my entry way doors I place on top of the doorway a small selenite, black tourmaline and obsidian
    I keep a rose quartz where I put my make up on….

    Great info Courtney I'm getting into crystals I have a couple amethyst crystals I wear around my neck when I go out except at work because I work in a warehouse but I do want to carry some around on me even there. I'm looking into crystals that will help me with money, calming, keeping negativity away plus I love the cool & beautiful colors I'm seeing I was planning to order some online but I will check out some stores first to get some advice on what to do. The amethyst stones I already have over the years I never bothered to cleanse them no one told me about that so now after learning that crystals will take more affect when you do that I will keep that in mind. Love your video any advice from you is welcome on for me.

    I've watched a few videos on crystals. Whenever a certain crystal is in the video i am so drawn to it. I didn't know the crystal but it turns out its the green fluorite. Every video where it randomly pops up (like with yours around 2:15) i can't take my eyes off from it. Had no clue what this crystal did so i looked it up and now it makes all sense why i am drawn to it. I guess i have to purchase one for myself then.
    I've always been interested in crystal, i bought a amethist and clear crystal in switzerland when i was 12 years old, before i even knew what crystals were or that they served a purpose.
    I would really love to learn how to use these crystals

    Last fall i got into a car accident and got hit on my left side while i was driving. The experience was terrifying but i couldn't remember what exactly had happened until weeks later when i was getting physical therapy and chiropractic adjustments. But the day of the accident i had gone to town for brunch with friends and got hit on the way home. I decided to wear a crystal necklace that i had recently found again after losing as a kid. It was pink quartz. The string It was hung on was tied in three knots so what happened once i got home from the accident was weird. Basically the string untied itself sometime after I got home and while i was talking to my Mom about what I remembered, it slipped off my neck and fell onto the kitchen floor.
    I was told once that crystals can get "overwhelmed" by energy and need to recharge and will find ways of telling you this. I'm not sure if it's true or not but this video made me think about it when you were talking about setting intentions. If anyone has insight about rose quartz or what happened i would love to hear! Maybe the string was just old and untied itself because it hadn't been used since i was a kid, idk. Either way, i definitely needed protecting during the accident and I got it.

    @shoblisVA 3 роки тому +4

    Hello! I'm new to crystals and I've been really obsessed about it lately. I did my research about healing crystals, thinking of collecting and it'd be good holistic therapy. I have a lot of questions I hope you can help me 🙂
    1) Is there a difference between Crystals, Stones and Gemstones?
    I think there are 3 types? Correct me if I'm wrong:
    Raw Crystals (some are stones), Cut Crystals, and Tumbled Crystals (a.k.a. the polished/gemstones)
    I'm kind of confused.
    2) I read that the other crystals or stones or gemstones cannot be combined with others when you're going to put them in your pocket because they'll likely get scratched? If yes, which are those? (examples)
    I'm thinking of combining Black Tourmaline Raw Stone and Fire Agate Polished stones, put them into an organza drawstring bag then inside my pocket or bag? Is that alright?
    Since I'm still new to healing crystals, I've watched tons of beginner vids but do you think it will still work if I
    cleanse:
    my crystals and stones/gemstones by playing meditation music and
    recharging:
    by writing properties on a piece of paper that I want the crystal to hold and leave overnight, or meditate . (I think it's easier that way, for now.)
    because I'm still not sure about which of the healing crystals I should cleanse and recharge using sunlight, moonlight, and water.
    I've heard that's the best practice and proven?? So I'm having doubts if it'll work if I did my way of cleansing and charging.
    4. Does the size and quantity of healing crystals/stones matter in
    effect?
    5. Pendants, bracelets: still need cleansing? recharging?
    6. Are there really self-cleansing crystals you never cleanse? like clear quartz? Is it okay if I have to cleanse all of my crystals and stones using one little clear quartz? like it was surrounded by my crystals/stones together and the clear quartz is in the middle?? If yes, is it ok to leave it overnight?
    7. If someone sees or touches my crystal/stones, it's possible that they will absorb the energy of that person looking?? So is it better to just put them in my jewelry leather box than displaying them outside where people see? (sorry if this is a weird question, lol)
    8. Is it okay to put different random raw crystals, stones, and polished stones together in organza or underneath my pillow (ex: blue lace agate raw/chunk for anxiety, hematite polished stones for clarity & focus, amethyst raw stone to prevent nightmares)

    • @ra_vxnia
      @ra_vxnia 2 роки тому +2

      1) yes there are differences among them! what makes them difference is their molecular structures and the type of minerals they are, gemstones are known to be more expensive and of higher quality and value than of crystals! and when you mention raws, tumbles, you’re referring to the forms they’re available in! they’re all crystals, just in different forms! so there are 3 types of forms crystals can come in as you’ve listed :)
      2) it’s best for you to keep crystals of various forms separately when you bring them out with you! (so you keep all the tumbles in one bag and raws in another) one example would be a selenite stick (raw and soft crystal) and tigers eye (tumbled and harder crystal) tumble, do not keep them together because the selenite will break! it’s better to keep crystals separated according to their forms :) and YES your cleansing and recharging methods are wonderful! very effective I would say
      4) nope, a crystal’s size or quantity does not affect its healing properties!
      5) yes they do!
      6) yes there are such thing as self cleaning crystals, but clear quartz isn’t one of them! selenite is! all the questions you were asking regarding cleansing that involved clear quartz, use selenite instead and you’re good to go! and yes it is okay for you to leave it overnight:)
      7) yes it’s true! the crystal will absorb whatever energy the person is holding on to (negative or positive) so you should cleanse them after anybody touches them! if a person looks, it’s completely okay it will have no effect but when a person TOUCHES your crystals, cleanse cleanse cleanse !
      8) keep the raws and polished crystals separated under your pillow! you can put them all together but leave some space in between so they cannot scratch each other :)
      hope this helps you !! i enjoyed myself answering these for you hehe 😆
