Selenite: The Stone of Purity, Clarity & Divine Light

Selenite is the Stone of Divine Light — a crystal of pure, radiant energy that embodies peace, clarity, and angelic connection. Its luminous glow reflects its purpose: to cleanse, align, and elevate your energy to higher frequencies.

Named after Selene, the Greek goddess of the Moon, Selenite carries an ethereal vibration that dissolves negativity and promotes serenity. It is one of the few crystals that can cleanse and recharge other stones, as well as your aura, without ever needing to be cleansed itself.

Whether you seek mental clarity, energetic purification, or spiritual connection, Selenite acts as a beam of light — cleansing your energy field and creating harmony between your mind, body, and spirit.

What is Selenite?

Selenite is a crystalline form of gypsum (calcium sulphate dihydrate – CaSO₄·2H₂O). It forms in transparent, pearly white layers or rods that radiate with moon-like brilliance. Its name comes from the Greek word “selēnē” meaning “moon,” symbolizing its luminous purity and tranquil energy.

Energetically, Selenite is one of the highest-vibration crystals on Earth. It cleanses stagnation, raises spiritual frequency, and opens channels to divine guidance. Its soft yet powerful energy is especially suited for meditation, aura cleansing, and space purification.

A Brief History of Selenite

Selenite has been revered since ancient times as a crystal of light and purity. In ancient Greece, it was associated with the Moon goddess Selene, symbolizing spiritual illumination. Temples and sacred spaces were often adorned with Selenite to reflect divine energy.

Throughout history, Selenite was used by mystics, healers, and priests to connect with angelic realms and clear negative energies. It was considered a bridge between the physical and spiritual worlds — the “liquid light” of the Earth that connects heaven and human consciousness.

Even today, its gentle yet powerful energy continues to be a cornerstone for spiritual cleansing and enlightenment.
