Crystal Care
As crystals put out high frequency energy and many crystals protect us by taking on negative energies so we don't take them on; crystals can become dull and not as effective/supportive as they once were.
To support crystals in returning back to what is known as their Dominant Oscillary Rate (returning back to normal) we can do small rituals that are commonly known as cleansing an charging. Cleansing and charging assists in removing negative energies and returning the crystals frequency back in to alignment faster then the crystal could do it's self.
How we support crystals before they are sent off to their new owners:
All of our crystals are cleansed with Palo Santo, moon light or sound as apart of our packaging process. We set all crystals with positive intentions by holding them, saying some positive words and sending some heart chakra energy to them before we send them out to you.
How often should you cleanse charge your crystals:
We recommend cleansing, charging and setting your intentions for your new crystals when you receive them.
After that let your intuition guide you on how frequently they may need to be cleansed and charged. Crystals don't need to go out for every full moon unless you feel like they do. They also don't need all forms of cleansing used, just pick what feels right for you. Listen to your intuition, it truly will guide you on this one.
Ways you can cleanse and charge crystals:
These are some suggestions on ways you can support your crystals in returning back to their Dominant Oscillary Rate. You can choose to use just one option or a mixture of options.
- Place crystals on or near Selenite or Satin Spar these crystals naturally cleanse and charge themselves and other crystals at a faster rate then other crystals could do on their own.
- Place crystals under the moonlight (the full moon is the most powerful) either outside on the ground, on veranda or inside by a window that gets moonlight. We do recommend checking the weather forecast as some crystals can not get wet or be in direct sunlight for a long time.
- Smudging with White Sage, Palo Santo or similar. This is an ancient ritual used to rid all that is smudged of negative energies. Light the smudge tool and get the crystals in the smoke. I personally like to say something out loud like 'cleanse these crystals of negative energies and return them back into their natural alignment'. Feel free to say what ever comes naturally to you. I also like to smudge myself, my family and home.
- Sunlight and water are appropriate to cleanse some crystals but not all, so it's best to google if these methods are suitable for each of your crystals first. For example Amethyst is known to fade in colour and sometimes shatter if left in the sun; while Selenite and Satin Spar will dissolve if they are wet.
- Hold your crystals, meditate with them and send the positive vibes (high frequency energy).
- Sound bowls and playing high frequency music sends crystals back to their Dominant Oscillary Rate. I personally play Solfeggio Frequency on You Tube.
- Bury them in the ground over night to a week.
Caring for your new One With Self Crystal jewellery:
The wire that we use for the necklaces may tarnish/ discolour over time. The below list are some of our recommendations to care for all crystal jewellery to preserve them from general wear.
- Keep them away from oils, water, body lotion and perfumes as much as possible.
- Try to avoid other necklaces etc touching/rubbing against your crystal necklace.
- Try to avoid wearing crystal jewellery while swimming or showering.
- Use cleansing and charging methods with the jewellery that don't involve water or dirt.
If a crystal breaks:
It is said that if a crystal breaks, it has taken a hit for you and has protected you. If this happens, do a cleans and then you can choose to keep the pieces or bury them in the ground (returning them to the earth).
Please note that some crystals such as Malachite, Tiger Eye and Bumblebee Jasper are highly toxic in their raw form so it is best to discard broken toxic crystals appropriately or put them on display (out of reach from children and pets). Also make sure you wash your hands after touching them.
Children and crystals:
We do not recommend the use of crystals for children under 3 years old and we recommend supervision for children under 8 years old when using crystals.
