Uses and Care

In crystal healing, rock crystal is traditionally regarded as the "master stone" among quartzes – it is said in tradition to promote inner clarity and help organize thoughts as well as focus the mind. Many people use it intentionally for meditation, for home decoration, or as a personal companion in everyday life.

For care, simply wipe gently with a slightly damp cloth. Rock crystal can occasionally be cleaned under running water. Direct immersion in chemical cleaning agents should be avoided, as this can affect the natural surface over time. For regular energetic cleansing, many enthusiasts recommend briefly placing it in sunlight or moonlight.
