Alright witches (and non-witches), let me give you a crash course in Crystal Care.
Universal Ways to Charge Crystals
Any of these ways can be used without damaging your crystals:
Moonlight. The moon is our best friend, she is amazing, she will not harm your crystals at all.
Touch. You can hold your crystals in your hand to charge them with your own energy and intention. It is a very personal way to charge your crystals.
Smoke. You can run your crystals through smoke from your incense, candles, or smoke cleansing sticks.
Sigil. Place a sigil meant for charging underneath your crystal to charge it.
Selenite. Some people use Selenite to charge their other crystals. I don't know why Selenite is associated with charging crystals, but it is.
Do not consume any crystal or crystal powder under any circumstances.
Some crystals are toxic when in water, make sure yours isn't before you charge your water.
Do not heat your crystals with a flame.
Do not have Himalayan Rock Salt Lamps if you have a cat, they can lick it and become very dehydrated, which can lead to death.
In fact, make sure all of your crystals are out of reach for any of your pets, or children if you have them.
