Cleansing and Charging Your Crystal Items
Whenever I purchase a crystal item I like to cleanse it of negative energy, and charge it with my own energies. To cleanse: you can submerge your crystal in distilled water with a pinch of sea salt. For a quick cleansing 30 minutes, or for a deeper cleansing do the same, but leave the crystal over night. During the full moon is best, because it is more powerful.
To charge: I arrange a minimum of seven quartz crystal points facing inward around the crystal item. As shown in the picture of the Crystal Skull above. These quartz crystal points are left around the item for a minimum of 12 hours. Again during the full moon because that is when the moon is at its peak of power. What happens after positioning these crystal points around the crystal item is amazing. The crystal item itself becomes energized.
