Crystal Clear (New or Waning Moon is Optimal)

Over time, you will doubtless adorn your sacred altar space with many beautiful crystals. Whenever you acquire a new crystal, you need to cleanse it.

Gather these elemental energies:

• A candle for fire
• A cup of water
• Incense for air
• A bowl of salt

Pass your crystal through the scented smoke of the incense and say:

Inspired with the breath of air

Pass the crystal swiftly through the flame of the candle and say:

Burnished by fire 

Sprinkle the crystal with water and say:

Purified by water

Dip the crystal into the bowl of salt and say:

Empowered by the earth 

Hold the crystal before you with both hands and imagine an enveloping, warm white light purifying the tool. Now say:

Steeped in spirit and bright with light 

Place the cleansed crystal upon your altar and say:

By craft made and by craft charged and changed, 
This crystal I will use for the purpose of good in this world. 
In the realm of the gods and goddesses. 
I hereby consecrate this crystal. 
Blessings to all, blessed be.
