Selenite (also known as Gypsum) is a type of soft crystal composed of hydrated calcium sulphate. It typically occurs in the form of a transparent to translucent white or grey crystalline mass, and it can easily be shaped and carved into a variety of forms including wands, spirals and pyramids. Selenite is known for its ability to create an energetic bridge between the physical and spiritual realms, allowing energy to flow freely through the body while connecting with one’s inner clarity. It is highly recommended for use during meditation practices as its calming colours and ethereal beauty awakens contemplation on many levels. Furthermore, when held closely in proximity to oneself or in grid patterns throughout one's environment this crystal has profoundly therapeutic effects on mental, emotional and spiritual health.
