What it is
Small Charging Plate 8cm - Chakra Design is made from selenite, about 8cm, a gentle, silky-white crystal with a natural fibrous glow.
The seven-chakra design maps the energy centres of yogic tradition from root to crown, each with its own colour.
At around 8cm this is the mid-sized option: big enough to notice on a shelf, small enough for a desk or windowsill. Mid sizes are the most versatile: they hold a bracelet or a handful of tumbles, or sit happily on a bedside table.
The Small Charging Plate 8cm range comes in 3 versions. If Chakra Design isn't quite right, compare Mandala Design or Tree of Life.
Materials and size
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.
Size: approximately 8cm. Natural material varies slightly in size, colour and markings.
Traditional uses
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. Traditional meanings are offered for interest and reflection, not as a health claim.
How to use it
- Place 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.
Who it suits
It suits someone who already has crystals and wants somewhere to rest them. At £6.32 it also works as a small add-on gift or stocking filler.
