How to guide

So you have received your beautiful new Crystal, but what to do with it?

Here is our guide to Cleansing, working with, caring, charging and storing your Crystals. 

Cleanse - When you receive your crystals, you will need to cleanse them. They will have picked up previous energy from where they came from, people who handled them etc.. It's always best to cleanse them to be free of any energy ready for you to work with a pure, clean, cleansed Crystal.

There are a few ways in which you can cleanse your crystal. Some Crystals can’t be cleansed with water so the easiest way is to leave your crystals out in the full moon, on your windowsill will suffice.

For alternative ways to cleanse your Crystal we have a full in depth guide on our blog here - https://www.luxelumination.co.uk/blogs/how-to-guide/how-do-i-cleanse-my-crystals

Working with Your Crystal - Once your Crystals are cleansed and ready for use, you will need to program their intentions. This is a process where you give your crystal a specific purpose or a goal to work towards. If you have received your Crystal to help with Healing, hold your Crystal in your hands, close your eyes and either out loud or quietly in your head tell your Crystal what your intentions are. Keep the Crystal close to you where you can see it everyday as a reminder of your intention. Once you have finished working with the Crystal, cleanse and charge ready to work together for your next intention.

Charging - All Crystals need charging up every so often, they love the Moonlight! On a full moon you can charge your Crystal by leaving it outside (if safe to do so) or on your windowsill inside your home. Even if it is cloudy, don't worry the moonlight will still charge up your Crystal. 

Care - To help protect your Crystals do not use water, perfume or any chemicals near each crystal. Store your Crystals away from direct sunlight as some Crystals are effected by the sun and will fade in the light. 

Store - Keep your Crystals close to you, where you can see them every day either place them on your bedside cabinet or keep them on your desk. Wear them as jewellery, take them out with you in your pocket or pop them in your handbag. You can store your Crystals in the organza bag they came in.
