How Often Should You Charge Crystals?

Scroll down to learn in which way it is possible for you to update your crystals and enhance the energetic potential of the items.

The Benefits of Charging Our Crystals to Us, How?

Interestingly, crystals have a memory. They collect and remember the energies from people and places they end up contacting. They store personal and environmental energies brought by whoever used or stored them and places they visited.


If you are just starting out with crystals, bear in mind that timing does matter and its history isn’t with you…it could have been anywhere. Or, if you have been holding it for some time, all the unflattering energies could have been drawing in your crystal with time. Negative forces can rule out the reliable operation of your crystal. 

Crystal Charging Methods

Charge Crystals in Water

Water is a good and ready alternative for clearing and activating your crystal. It only requires placing one single tap of water on the crystal, for a few seconds, and drying with a soft towel.


If you dream of being totally involved in this process, you would be best served by using a stream or river. Quartz crystals form a better choice since Selenite stones are too delicate to be held in hand.

Charge Crystals in Moonlight

Another method of charging crystals at home that works well is exposure to moonlight. The crystal energy can be achieved by laying them on the windowsill at night, and your stone will acquire enough power the next morning. To increase the vibrations, you can try charging your crystals during a full moon as the energy is strongest at that time.

Charge Crystals in the Sun

Lunar or solar cycles prevail over lunar or solar cycles around the sun or moon charging method of crystals. But you have the freedom to apply this technique anytime.


Place the crystal under the morning sun and fetch it when it comes in at 11a.m. In this way, the stone collects sunlight without danger of overheating. Keep in mind, you can only use tumbled crystals in the sun, as fragile gremlins like Amethyst may crack from intense heat.

Charge Crystals with Selenite

Fun fact: Another way is doing the same with other crystals with the help of a crystal like Selenite for example. To recharge your stones with Selenite simply place each above the stone and leave undisturbed for a full day.


Selenite towers can also be used as a charging solution. Put your Selenite tower in a place with loads of room, then set stones you wish to charge in a circular pattern around it, ensuring they lie close to the base.

Charge Crystals with Salt

Salt can also be used as a form of simple yet effective home resource for cleaning and filling your crystals. Hehe a bowl mix water with the rock salt then stir them till they are combined after that put the stones in the mixture to charge them heavily.


If you are living by the sea, it is even better. Use seawater instead, you’ll undergo the same process and dab dry the gemstones gently afterwards. But please make sure that this is best for hard but nonporous stones.

Charge Crystals with Dirt

Washing your crystals back into the place they first existed is often the best way to charge them. Dig a secret hole in the soil of your backyard, fill in with your stones, and conceal them for seven days.


To solve this problem just put the soil from the stones into a closed container at home and bury them. Your crystals will have contact with and be nourished by nature in this way. Enhance the efficiency of your charging through involvement.

Charge Crystals with Incense

You can also cleanse and recharge your crystals by using an incense stick, sage or sacred herb. Burn the incense and then use your crystals to sweep through the smoke for two to three minutes.


What makes this method special is that it does not damage all crystals and it does not bring any risks. It can be helpful to shift the crystals close to the open window for clearing the space effectively of any negative residue.

Charge Crystals with Breath

Breathing on your crystals will be an easy way to boost their energy. First, get yourself free of any thoughts that may distract you from this process.


Then blow hard on the crystal and accumulate the other hand over the crystal quickly. Keep blowing over the crystal several times until you feel it getting lighter.

Charge Crystals in Sound Bath

Crystals bring vibrations that can affect our energy for positive transformation. Your crystal can be purified of the negative energy, and recharged with invigorating energy when placed under the sound wave vibration.


Leave the crystal resting above the sound bowl for 4-5 minutes to charge itself. If you prefer, put the crystal on a tea coaster and use your hand to keep it over the sound bowl. If it does not come in direct contact with water, it can harm some crystals.

Your Spiritual Guides Can Help You Recharge Your Crystals During Your Meditation

And if you have spirit guides to look to, the act of meditation and prayer to them can attract them in cleansing and re-energize your crystals. You can communicate your wishes and plans to them, so that they can do the cleansing for you.

How Often Do You Need to Cleanse and Clean Your Crystals?

The frequency of cleansing and recharging your crystals doesn’t have a single answer. The more often you use the crystal for work the more frequently it has to be cleansed and energized.

It is our common practice to recharge the crystals before using them after purchasing new crystals.
