Running Water: Crystals love running water. Hold your crystal under the tap and allow cold water to flow over it. As you do so, visualize all dark and dense energies dissolving and washing away. If you're at a beach or near a stream, allow the water to flow over your stones. Then air-dry them naturally in gentle sunlight. Keep a firm grip on your crystals during this process and don't leave them where they can be swept away by the tide!
Smudge: The smoke of sacred herbs such as sage, cedar, and lavender may be used to cleanse the lattice and energy field of crystals. This is an excellent process before and after ceremony.
Breath: With your crystal held in your hands, begin by breathing slowly and centering yourself. Focus on your crystal, take a long slow breath, and pause while focusing. Raise your crystal and exhale with a burst, visualizing and feeling static and ambient energies spontaneously releasing from the crystal's light matrix. Repeat until you are satisfied (or light-headed ;-).
Energy: There are several methods for channeling energy to cleanse the energy field of your stones. Begin by centering yourself, breathing deeply, and relaxing. Hold your crystal in both hands and visualize the flow of energy. Draw the energy from the Universe (or from your favorite vertical Source). Visualize beams of light energy streaming towards your crystal. You may channel the light through your hands (via your crown and heart chakra) into the crystal, or you can visualize the beams of light entering the crystal directly from all around it.....read more>>>...
