Spiritual guide through day and night.
Cleansing energy, a soothing grace,
Intuition heightened, in its embrace.
Angelic whispers, dreams take flight,
Selenite's magic, a shining light.

Selenite, a crystalline mineral, is a captivating and versatile stone that holds a special place in the world of crystal enthusiasts and spiritual seekers. Its name is derived from the Greek word "selēnē," meaning "moon," owing to its luminous white glow that resembles the moon's gentle radiance.

Selenite is renowned for its striking appearance and a multitude of metaphysical properties that make it a cherished addition to crystal collections and holistic practices. One of its most distinctive features is its delicate, pearlescent sheen that seems to capture and reflect light, giving it an ethereal quality.

Beyond its aesthetic appeal, selenite is often revered for its energetic and healing attributes. It is commonly associated with the crown chakra, which is believed to be the centre of spiritual insight and higher consciousness. The stone is thought to facilitate the free flow of energy between the upper and lower chakras, promoting balance, clarity, and a sense of tranquillity.

Selenite is also celebrated for its ability to cleanse and purify its surroundings. It is often used as a tool for clearing negative energies from spaces, objects, and other crystals. By placing selenite in a room, it is believed to promote a harmonious atmosphere while dispelling any stagnant or unwanted energies.

Moreover, selenite holds a unique property known as "self-cleansing." Unlike many other crystals that require regular cleansing methods, selenite has the natural ability to cleanse itself and recharge its energy when exposed to natural light or placed on a bed of quartz crystals.
