Selenite: chakra association (Crown), healing properties, and what it means when selenite appears in a dream.

Selenite is a white / translucent crystal associated with the Crown chakra and the Spirit / Air element. Selenite is named for Selene, the Greek goddess of the moon, and its translucent, striated white form evokes moonlight and etheric clarity. In crystal work it is one of the primary cleansing stones — used to clear the energy of other crystals, spaces, and one's own energetic field. Unusually, it is said not to need cleansing itself.

Healing properties & uses

The primary uses of selenite are space-clearing (placing wands in corners of rooms, on windowsills), cleansing other crystals by placing them on selenite plates, and supporting deep meditative states. Its high, quiet energy makes it appropriate for spaces dedicated to rest or spiritual practice.
