Cleansing Crystals Methods
1. Pass them through incense smoke.
An easy way to rid any clinging energy from your crystals is to pass them through a stream of incense smoke. Not only does this method also cleanse your space, but you can re-charge your crystals for a new purpose at the same time. We recommend using frankincense for basic cleansing, benzoin resin for bringing calm, and dragon’s blood for increasing energy vibrations.
2. Dip them in charged water.
Place them in a bowl of water charged under the full moon, or submerge them in a naturally running stream to send negative energies away. In the winter, crystals can be buried in the snow for a few hours with the same effect. Water is a powerful energy-force and giver of life, well suited to cleansing people and tools alike. Make note that this method is not suitable for porous or metallic crystals.
3. Cover them in sea salt.
Take a container made of a natural substance (like glass, wood, ceramic) and fill the bottom with sea salt. Add in your crystals, then cover with more salt. Wait at least one day, then take them out and they’re ready to use. Salt is one of the greatest energy purifiers out there, and it’s also easy and cheap to come by. Sea salt is preferred because the most natural and absorptive type of salt.
4. Let them bathe in the moonlight.
The simplest (and safest) way to cleanse your beauties is to let them soak up the purifying energy of the moonlight. Lay them out on the night of the full moon where the soft, purifying glow of the moonlight can illuminate them, then bring them inside come morning. Placing them on a window sill with moonlight is a suitable alternative if you cannot place them outdoors.

Simple productivity spell
What you’ll need
1 yellow birthday candle (or whatever color you think would work for productivity)
1 blue birthday candle (or whatever color you think would work for calmness)
2 empty tin tea candle holders
White wax
A lighter
A small stone for productivity (I used tigers eye, but garnet would work)
Procedure: place the 2 empty tea candle tins bottom to bottom, using the white wax to seal them both to each other so that they stick.
Place each candle inside the top tin, besides each other, melting and sticking the bottom of each candle so that they are steady and stuck.
Place your stone of your choice under the bottom tin, so that the bottom tin completely covers the stone.
Light the candles.
The idea is that as the candles burn, they charge the crystal and the colors of the candles will help the intended use of the stone even more.
I’m sure this could be a quick little thing to do for actually any intent. Just use the corresponding colors and crystals and there ya go.Am I witch-ing right?
