The Need
If using Crystals and Stones regularly, then its important to get into the habit of cleaning them, because they absorb emotions, and its a good idea not to have those hanging around, as either way they may interfere with the present. As negative energies can be stored they’ill affect the efficacy of your stones. But the good news is that cleansing will restore their strength and neutrality.
Healing
Its especially important to clean Stones after using in the healing process, because just like people they weary and drain and need revitalizing. And just like us they respond well to a little TLC. If you leave it to your intuition you will know when to care for them and if you’re thinking about it, then its time.
Seawater
If you are lucky enough to live by the seaside, as I do, then seawater is ideal, although the harshness of sea salt, does require a rinsing afterwards. Other great sources are river, stream, white water spring, or regular tap water. The most important ingredient is ’setting the intention’ with loving care to cleanse and replenish.
Method
- Collect some water/seawater
- Place Stones/Crystals in a cloth or net
- Immerse in the seawater for 1-2 hrs
Important Notice
Not all Crystals and Stones are suited to a water cleansing, i.e. Selenite. If in doubt check with your Crystal books for an individual Stone/Crystal or use a different method.
Alternative Methods
- Crystals/Stones can also be cleansed with a mixed solution of sea:tap water and left immersed overnight. Imagine any negative emotions being washed away as they soak.
- Some Crystals can be used to clean other Crystals and Stones. For example, Quartz, Citrine and Amethyst clusters
- Carnelian placed with other Crystals can cleanse them
- Smudging with fire
- Air drying
The Simplest Way
Probably the easiest way is to leave your Stones on the window-sill, for about 24-hrs, to absorb sunlight (female-yin energy) or moonlight (male-yang energy), the choice is yours, and equally powerful. You’ll soon get a feel for which is most pertinent at any given time.
There are a wide range of options and as you get into the stillness and quality of energy that Crystals and Stone imbue, so your exploration will deepen.
I find walking into Sheila’s shop is like stepping into a temple, its so still and peaceful. They certainly have a calming effect on their environment.

Last night I was talking to a friend …. she went on a course with Darren Eden last weekend, a 1-day introduction workshop on developing the Intuition.
The information was revealing yet disruptive to my day as have been putting off this particular passion, having decided I lack experience, and filed it away for a future date rather than now.
“As an international speaker and author of the book ‘The Sacred Quest’ which breaks new boundaries in the manifestation of abundance, Louise Langley now teaches others her inspirational message to live solely by their intuition. A huge paradigm shift saw her transcend an extremely successful career in high value financial sales to become the creator of ‘The Ether Group’ pioneering the radical planetary changes outlined in her book.
Because this is the first post on what is a fresh and crisp new blog I want to launch it with a very worthy topic.
The final aspect that gives the book its objective approval in the form of scientific evidence is being found in various fields such as: astronomy; genetics; quantum mechanics; quantum physics; and re-emerging sciences that were buried in ancient history.
