Harness the Full Moon: A Simple Way to Cleanse & Recharge Your Crystals
If you love crystals but aren’t quite sure how to take care of them, you’re not alone! Crystals absorb energy from their surroundings, and over time, this can make them feel a little “off.” Cleansing and recharging them under the full moon is one of the easiest and most effective ways to refresh their energy and keep them working at their best.

Why Should You Cleanse Your Crystals?
Just like we take showers to wash away dirt and refresh ourselves, crystals need a reset too! Here’s why cleansing them is important:
Clears built-up energy: Crystals pick up energy from their surroundings, and regular cleansing helps reset them.
Restores their natural power: Over time, your crystals can feel drained, and recharging them brings back their full strength.
Connects them to lunar energy: The moon’s energy is naturally purifying and enhances the power of your crystals.
How to Cleanse Your Crystals with Moonlight
Cleansing your crystals with moonlight is simple! Just follow these steps:
1. Choose the Right Night
The best time is during the full moon, but the night before and after work too!
Check a lunar calendar to find the next full moon.
2. Gather Your Crystals
Pick the crystals you want to cleanse.
Some crystals, like selenite, naturally cleanse themselves and may not need this step.
3. Find a Good Spot
Place your crystals outside or on a windowsill where they’ll get direct moonlight.
If outdoors, make sure they are safe from animals or weather changes.
4. Set an Intention
Hold your crystals and think about what you want to clear away.
Say something like: “I cleanse these crystals of any unwanted energy and recharge them with the moon’s light.”
5. Let Them Absorb the Moonlight
Leave them out overnight to soak up the moon’s energy.
