I wanted to talk about how to keep your jewelry and crystals cleansed and charged energetically.
For jewelry, the intention is that while you wear the jewelry you focus on a certain affirmation or intention. Most of the jewelry I create, I create with a certain intention in mind. Your jewelry will always come charged with reiki and programmed for you specifically. This energy will last a while, however it's good to continue to charge the jewelry yourself as well. It’s best to combine your jewelry with affirmations and visualize your goal while wearing it periodically. That way, you’ll be reminded of your goal every time you look at the stone and can then take action to bring it to life.
To get the most benefits from your jewelry and crystals, it's a good idea to make a habit of cleansing and charging them. You can do this as often as you feel called, but usually once a month is fine. There are multiple ways you can do this, the most common being:
For Cleansing them-
✨Cleanse with smoke. Allow the smoke tendrils to flow over the crystals and actively visualize them releasing old energies with the smoke.
✨Cleanse in a bowl of salt (you can add herbs like rosemary if you would like). Let them sit in the bowl for a few hours.
✨Sound. You can use any of a variety of instruments. You could use a singing bowl, bell, chime, etc. Allow the sound to wash over the crystals and actively visualize them releasing old energies on the sound waves.
For Charging them With Energy-
✨Leave the jewelry out in the sunlight for an hour. I recommend not using this technique more than once a week and for longer than an hour at a time. This is because certain stones can fade in the sun after prolonged exposure (if you are unsure, you can always Google which stones).
✨Leave the jewelry out to charge under the moonlight. Each moon cycle will add a slightly different energy as well depending on the sign and phase the moon is currently in.
✨Visualization. Hold in your hands and imagine a white light surrounding it. Hold your intention and affirmations in mind and imagine the light charging the jewelry.
Remember to reset the jewelry with your intentions after cleansing. You can do this by holding them and repeating affirmations or visualizing what you want them to help you with.
