Selenite – massage wand (polished stone)
- Selenite is a beautiful stone with a milky white colour. Its name comes from the Greek goddess Selene, patron of the moon. In ancient times, selenite was believed to help invoke prophetic dreams.
Natural stones and minerals have fascinated people for centuries. Their beauty, unusual colours and irregular shapes captivate and inspire. It is not without reason that stones and minerals have become a popular item of jewellery or decoration, and are often used as amulets and talismans. Stones and minerals are gifts from Mother Nature herself. They are formed deep within the Earth, as a result of geological changes. Their beauty is unique and one-of-a-kind. Each stone is different and has its own unique character. In addition to their beauty, stones and minerals also carry powerful energy. Many people believe that stones have magical properties, have protective powers and can bring good luck and fortune. Believing in their power, it is a good idea to carry them close to you, as jewellery or tucked away in your wallet or purse. You can also place them in areas where you are frequently present, such as in bedroom or on your desk at work. It is also a good idea to use them as part of rituals such as yoga, meditation or the ritual of smudging with Palo Santo or white sage.
Selenite is a milky white, translucent or transparent variety of gypsum, with a pearly glow. Its name comes from the Greek goddess Selene, who was the patron of the moon and birth. Unsurprisingly, selenite is attributed with powers associated with these areas of life. In ancient times, selenite was believed to help invoke prophetic dreams. Some still believe that placing the mineral under the pillow can improve the quality of sleep. Selenite also has cleansing and protective properties. It connects the real and spiritual worlds, helping to bring balance and harmony. It protects against negative influences and reduces stress. Selenite is an ideal stone for people characterised by high sensitivity. It soothes emotions and helps with self-expression, provides a sense of security and also supports in making difficult decisions.
The polished selenite in the form of a wand (with smooth, rounded ends) can be used as an element of meditation or for energy work. The selenite wand is also great for massage, and the stone set on a stand and illuminated with coloured light can make an intriguing interior decoration.
How do you choose the right stone? Choosing the right stone is a matter of personal preference. It is advisable to follow your own intuition and the whispers of your heart. You can also use your knowledge of the properties of individual stones and minerals. They are also strongly associated with astrology. Their properties are attributed to specific zodiac signs. Selenite is uniquely not closely associated with one particular zodiac sign, but it is recommended for people with high sensitivity and empathy, especially those under the signs of Cancer and Pisces.
