Selenite Crystal Meaning

Selenite is widely recognized as a cleansing and charging crystal, known for its remarkable ability to cleanse all stones of negative or stagnant energy, and recharge them effectively! You may recognize selenite in the following forms:

• Pyramids 
• Selenite Towers
• Smooth Palm Stones
• Faceted within Jewelry
• Tumbled Stones
• By weight, in Raw Form 
• Charging Plates (flat often square tablets)
• Wands (knife or columnar shaped for “cutting through energy”)

Selenite is a gorgeous, translucent stone with a hushed white pigment. It is categorized as a soft crystal, with a hardness of two on the Mohs scale, so this means it is fragile and over time will dissipate if exposed to water. If you’re wearing selenite in decorated jewelry, be cautious and remove it before showering or swimming.

Spiritually, selenite finds its origins in the Greek Goddess, Selene of the moon. Vibrationally, selenite operates at a very high frequency and has been known to activate intuition and connect our physical realm to the guidance of angels and spiritual guides. Much like the divinity it represents, it doesn't hold onto negative energy and need never be charged or cleansed, making it the perfect choice for continual empowerment, love, and cleansing.

Topaz and Citrine together represent the November birthdays of Scorpio and Sagittarius. This time of the year in the Northern hemisphere, the days are very short and the nights are long and cold. The winter is a time of reflection and integration. It’s days like these where it’s important to remember to at least try to be optimistic sometimes, and Citrine can help.

For the Scorpio who is no stranger to self-exploration and who is not afraid of the dark misty caverns inside, Citrine acts as a literal flashlight to cut through the gloom. With Citrine along, it is easier to transmute the hard emotions that can make life difficult sometimes. The added benefit of this is a boost of determination, and that it is harder to get stuck for long when you do end up in an emotional cavern you didn’t mean to enter and might not like so much. Sometimes these menacing caves are our best opportunities to learn about ourselves, and Citrine can help put that into perspective for you.

For the buoyant and Jupiterian Sagittarius, Citrine can bolster your motivation, and prosperity while lending agency and creativity to the wearer. Sagittarius may not be as far deep underground as Scorpio, but are certainly no novice in the art of bush-whacking and trailblazing. In the pursuit of adventure, Citrine Quartz can prove to be the ultimate ally to any sign of the zodiac!
