It has been a while since I have posted something on one of my favourite subjects, crystals. So here is my offering, I hope you enjoy reading it.
Most of us who love these beautiful stones, are aware of the usual techniques of cleansing and clearing for use in meditation and healing. I have recently come across some other methods used, that are a little lesser known and would like to share them with you.

Amethyst Clusters are good for clearing other crystals, as too are Clear Quartz, clusters.
Most crystals and gemstones, rough or cut, on their own or in jewelry, will pick up negative or unwanted energies over time. They are a bit like sponges absorbing and reacting to the environment's energies. Some that don't absorb energies and thus do not need clearing are Citrine, Kyanite, Azeztulite, and Melody's Stone also known as The Super Seven.
Melody's stone crystal, was a new one to me. So here is a little more information about it. Melody's Stone is a very spiritual stone. It is one of the few stones that retain their energy and clarity and never needs cleansing or energizing. Also, a piece of Melody's Stone retains the properties of all the stones in the combination of amethyst, smoky quartz, clear quartz, rutile, goethite, lepidocrocite and cacoxenite, even if the piece does not visibly show all 7 minerals. Super Seven is excellent for enhancing all types of psychic abilities and psychic skills including telepathy, clairvoyance, clairaudience, channeling, telekinesis, and others. It is a powerful stone for crystal healing, and is excellent for healing mind, body, and spirit dis-ease. Note that healing crystal meanings are spiritual supports to healing and are not prescriptions or healthcare. Crystals and stones that are used for crystal healing or energy work should be cleared and cleansed of negative energy prior to any usage.
Reiki/Seichim: Reiki, Seichim, or other healing energy work is another of my favorite methods of cleansing crystals. In a sense, it's channeling the universal life force energy to heal the crystal of negativity and unwanted energies. As a Reiki or Seichim practitioner, just treat the stone as you would any other being that needs healing, and set your intent to heal the stone of any negativity or unwanted energies.
Stone Clearing: Some stones will clear the negative or unwanted energies from other stones. Some stones that work well for this are quartz crystal clusters, amethyst clusters, carnelian, kyanite, and selenite. Place the stone to be cleared on a the "clearing" stone, and leave for 24-48 hours.
Flower Water: You can also clear crystals and stones in flower water. Soak the stone or crystal in water with the petals of rose, honey suckle, orange blossoms, jasmine or others for 24 hours. You can also use prepared flower water such as pure rosewater. Again, the same cautions apply regarding stones that don't do well in water.
Ask the Divine or Pray: This a simple ritual, but it can work wonderfully. Simply ask the Divine (God/Goddess/Universe/etc.) to clear and energetically cleanse your crystal for you. Form your request with specific intent and ask in a meditative or prayerful frame of mind. Something like "O Great Divine, please clear all unwanted or negative energies from this crystal for the best and highest good of all concerned. Thank you. Amen." would be a good specific request. The details should be changed to fit your own beliefs and needs.
Third Eye Breathing: In a quiet, private place, ground yourself and start breathing slowly. Visualize yourself breathing white light in through your Third Eye chakra and back out. Hold the crystal in your hand at Third Eye level and breathe white light from your Third Eye to the crystal with the intention of clearing unwanted and negative energies. Repeat at least 3 times, more if the crystal does not feel cleared after the third time.
Sound: Use a melodic gong, Tibetan prayer bells, a bell, chanting OM to clear unwanted energies from your crystal.Hold the crystal and sound the gong, etc next to it, passing the crystal through the sound waves to clear it.
Candle Flame: While focusing your intention and verbally praying or asking for the clearing of your crystal, pass it quickly through the flame of a white candle. Be sure to move it quickly enough to prevent overheating or damage to the crystal. Repeat until the energy of the crystal feels clear.
Four Elements: In a ritual, use symbols/representatives of the Four Elements and call upon them to clear your crystal one at a time, while passing the crystal over or through the symbolic representation of each element.
Whichever method you choose, the exact length of time needed for clearing varies according to personal intuition and the state of the crystal. Trust your intuition and higher self to lead you to the best methods and lengths of time for you and your crystals.
I would love to hear your 'crystal stories' and your experiences in cleansing your stones. Please feel free to share.
Love and light
