The plain classic form is the most versatile: it can be used for any ritual intention you choose. Many practitioners prefer an unadorned tool so that the meaning comes from their own intention rather than a printed design. Also in this range (3 in total): Letting go of the past, Releasing Bonds. Selenite is a crystalline form of gypsum, soft enough to scratch with a fingernail, typically pearly white with a silky sheen. It measures 2 on the Mohs hardness scale. Natural gypsum. The Cave of the Crystals in Naica, Mexico, holds selenite beams over 10 metres long. ## Traditions (belief, not health claims) Selenite takes its name from Selene, Greek goddess of the moon, because of its pearly sheen. Selenite is named after Selene, the Greek goddess of the moon. In modern practice selenite plates and bowls are used to 'charge' or cleanse other crystals placed on them. In modern crystal tradition selenite is linked with the crown chakra and with Taurus and Cancer. These are traditions and beliefs, described for interest, not health or medical claims. ## How to use - For a classic ritual: many practitioners prefer an unadorned tool so that the meaning comes from their own intention rather than a printed design. - Rest other crystals or jewellery on it overnight as a cleansing ritual. - Use it as a bright, moonlike accent on an altar or bedside table. - It pairs traditionally with any crystal you want to rest on it. - Overnight ritual: lay rings, bracelets or tumble stones on it before bed and pick them up in the morning. - Lighting idea: selenite glows softly when backlit, so try it near a lamp or candle (never touching the flame). - Entrance idea: some households keep a selenite piece by the front door as a symbol of a calm threshold. ## Care - Never wet selenite: it is water-soluble and will dissolve or cloud. ## Policies - Delivery: UK delivery £3.95, free over £40, 2–5 working days.
