When you use Selenite for healing, it’s like having a direct connection to the universal source (divine or universal energy). This energy is incredibly cleansing and purifying because it is made of pure, healing, white light.
Selenite has been a top favourite for many crystal lovers dating back to the Ancient Greeks who named the translucent crystal Selenite which means “moon” in Greek (because Selenite can be likened to full moon energies). They even constructed windows out of Selenite to allow light into darker rooms.
Selenite, a form of Gypsum, is strongly connected with the Crown Chakra. It is commonly used for promoting a connection with the Higher Self, to aid in ascension and spiritual growth, to help clear the mind for meditation, and to promote peace and harmony. However its most common use is for purification (especially to cleanse the chakras or the aura).
It is said that Selenite opens channels into other worlds. It enhances team spirit in groups and organisations so it’s a great crystal to have in your work environment.
High Vibrational Stone:
Selenite crystal carries a high vibration, which can quickly move spiritual growth forward. Selenite is the stone of the third eye chakra, the soul star chakra and the crown chakra. Selenite crystal opens the crown chakra, allowing you to access the transpersonal chakra right from the eighth chakra to the fourteenth chakra. Similarly when this stone is used at the heart chakra or the third eye, the movement of energy can be felt through the crown chakra. This will assist you to contact the Divine Mind and to access the Angelic realm. Selenite embodies a high vibration energy that works to help you to bring light down from the higher realms into the physical body, to create personal transformation.
Clears Energy Blockages:
Selenite is very helpful in removing all sorts energy blockages in the body. For example, if any part of your body is sore or tight, then place a wand of selenite on that part for 20 minutes and feel the difference. Selenite is also efficient at purifying and clearing both the jewellery and the environment. The healing properties of selenite hold the energy of light and makes you feel good.
Purifies Toxic Energies:
This crystal is vastly used for correcting the imbalances that occur due to negative or erratic emotions and negative energies in your energetic field. Hence is a powerful tool for removal of negative energies from one’s aura.

Cleansing:
Rough, Selenite wands (sometimes called blades), are the most common form of Selenite. They can be used to remove negativity from the energy field. This can be accomplished by holding the Selenite in one hand (so that the wand is horizontal or parallel to the ground) and sweeping the energy body with the wand. To sweep the aura, you should start at your client’s head and move down towards their feet. Move the Selenite wand through his or her energy field while intending to remove any negative energy. I recommend doing this three times for best results. Move along the left side of the body first, then the right side of the body, and then the center.
Any time clearing or cleansing is performed, it’s important to intend that any negative energy be transmuted into positive energy. To help me do this, I visualize a cleansing waterfall filled with white light. I see it transform the energy into pure, white light.
Connection:
Angel Wing Selenite (also known as Fishtail Selenite) is actually a twinned Gypsum crystal.
This variety of Selenite seems to be useful in connecting you with your guides or your Angels. To use the crystal for connecting with your guides, simply hold it while going into meditation. Alternatively, you can place it above, or on top of, your Crown Chakra. It may seem challenging or even overwhelming to connect with your guides in this way, but it doesn’t have to be difficult. Just make yourself comfortable and try to go into silent meditation with the intention to meet or interact with your guides or angels.
The Selenite will help to enhance angelic connection or a connection with spirit guides or ascended masters. During meditation, if you are holding the intention to connect with your guides or Angels, the Selenite can help you to receive the inner knowing that the connection has been made.
Other Selenite Forms:
Selenite Lamps are a fantastic alternative to the ever-popular salt lamps. They not only look amazing lit up to create ambience in your home or office space, but you do not need the light to be switched on to reap the benefits of this versatile crystal.
Orange Selenite:
As well as the popular white Selenite, it can also come in other colours like Salmon or Orange Selenite. It still has the same healing properties as white Selenite with the addition of encouraging a creative and productive atmosphere.
Use Orange Selenite to remove electromagnetic stress in and around your home. It works well to connect us to the Earth and Moon energies and cleanses the Sacral chakra. When you need a boost of self-esteem, a greater sense of well-being, or a dose of creativity, reach for Orange Selenite. It’s a great crystal to keep morale up in the workplace or at home. Orange Selenite also helps one to feel safe and secure, especially at night.
Physically, Orange Selenite may be helpful for flexibility, epilepsy, nausea, kidney- or gallstones, and fluid retention.
Desert Rose:
Desert Rose Selenite is a unique, natural crystal formation that is formed from the combination of water, wind and sand. It carries the energies of clarity, prosperity and purification. Desert Rose helps to rid the mind of old thought-processes, opening up the flow of guidance from your intuition.
