Hi sweet-chick80,

There are various ways that people cleanse their crystals so I will just note the simplest ones down here:

1. Just simply hold your crystal under running water and ask your higher power to cleanse the crystal completely of negative energy and to fill it with positive energy. Hold under the tap for between two-four minutes. You can also aid this process by visualising the negative energy swirling down the plughole and positive energy from above flowing into the crystal.

2. Plant your crystal in some earth, either in the garden or if this is not possible, a plant pot with soil and leave in there for a few days. The earth is said to recharge crystals.

3. Place your crystal in a cup of water and leave in the windowsill for a day. Should it be sunny, this will also have the added benefit of contributing the energy of the sunlight into the crystal as well as the water releasing the negative energy. However, please be aware that some crystals can get damaged if left in sunlight and/or water for any period of time. One crystal in particular which will damage if left in sunlight is the Amethsyt crystal.

I hope that helps, K.
