Selenite Satin Stick 2pk

This Selenite has a very beautiful sheen and pearly-white milky color as well as being somewhat opaque.

Ancient Greeks called this crystal Selenite, which means moon. Due to its translucent nature, Selenite was also once used as windows in temples and the homes of nobles because its opaque nature allowed light to shine through and disperse throughout the room.

Hardness: 1.5 - 2 Gemological Properties: Selenite is a hydrous calcium sulfate mineral; a form of gypsum crystal also known as Satin Spur and in fine grain form Alabaster. Selenite is named after the Greek goddess of the moon, Selene because of its soft white light and many metaphysical and healing benefits.

Metaphysical Properties: Selenite has a direct effect on the emotional body. However, unlike stones that soothe and calm the emotions, selenite activates the aspect of our nature connected to our true spiritual feeling and path. These crystals are particularly effective in stabilizing the emotional body and bringing erratic emotions under calm control.

Selenite is water-soluble and will dissolve if left in liquid. This important characteristic is also a great metaphor of the inherent power of the crystal to melt away exaggerated emotions with the stabilizing light force of your "true nature and feeling".
