Gemological info: Selenite is 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.”
