Metaphysical & Healing Properties

While many of our customers find spiritual and energetic resonance with our crystals, all metaphysical and healing claims are based on traditional and cultural beliefs.

We honor these natural distinctions and hand-select every piece with care, ensuring quality, integrity, and a touch of magic.

 Selenite is known by a number of names including, “Satin Spar”, “Desert Rose” and “Gypsum Flower” and  is a crystal habit variety of the mineral gypsum.  This very soft gemstone is so tender that is can usually be scratched with the forceful stroke of a fingernail.  Selenite is mostly produced in the pale shade of pearly white, but it is also found in yellow, orange and sometimes even green varieties.  Selenite is commonly found in evaporite bodies, where it forms through the evaporation of ancient saltwater bodies.  It is a common stone that can be sourced in many locations throughout the world and is frequently produced in Mexico, Morocco, Greece, Brazil, Poland and the United States.  

History

The name selenite is derived from the Greek word that means “moon” and Greek goddess of the moon, Selene.  Although it has a similar epidemy to the element, selenium, it does not contain significant amounts of the element.  It received this name because many ancient cultures believed the mineral would wax and wane with the cycles of the moon.  The ancient Greeks, Romans and Egyptians all decorated in various ways using the beauty of selenite.  The Romans and Greeks would often use selenite in place of glass for windows.  In Ancient Mesopotamia, it was used in rituals to ward off evil spirits.  Today, selenite is used to make sculptures due to its softness and ability to carve and cut.  It is also used for decorative lighting because of its exceptional ability to transmit light.
