CARE INSTRUCTIONS
At The Jade Highlands, we want your crystals and jewelry to remain beautiful and energetically vibrant. Follow these care instructions to ensure their longevity and lasting allure. Your commitment to these guidelines will preserve the precious qualities of your pieces, allowing you to enjoy their beauty for years to come.
Care and Storage:
- When handling your crystals and jewelry, ensure your hands are clean to prevent the transfer of oils or dirt.
- Avoid accidental drops or impacts against hard surfaces, as this can lead to damage.
- Store your crystals and jewelry separately to prevent scratches or tangling.
Crystal Cleaning Tips:
- Employ a soft, non-abrasive cloth to delicately wipe your crystals, eliminating dirt and fingerprints.
- For a more thorough cleanse, consider rinsing your crystals with lukewarm water and mild soap. Ensure the crystal is water-safe before proceeding.
- Exercise caution with delicate or porous crystals like Selenite or Malachite; refrain from immersing them in water. Instead, use a dry or slightly damp cloth for cleaning.
- After cleaning, gently pat your crystals dry using a soft cloth.
Jewelry Care:
- Employ a jewelry polishing cloth to delicately clean and restore the shine of your jewelry.
- Shield your jewelry from exposure to chemicals like perfumes, lotions, or hairsprays, as they can tarnish or harm the metal components.
- Prior to swimming, showering, or activities involving moisture or impact, remember to remove your jewelry.
- Store your jewelry in a dry and tarnish-resistant container or jewelry box when not in use.
Energetic Purification of Crystals:
- Given that crystals absorb and retain energy, regular cleansing is crucial to uphold their optimal energetic qualities.
- Various methods exist for cleansing crystals, including:
- Sunlight: Position your crystals in a location where they can absorb sunlight energy for a few hours. Exercise caution, as prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may fade or damage certain crystals.
- Moonlight: Leave your crystals under the full moon's light overnight to purify and recharge them.
- Smudging: Pass your crystals through the smoke of sacred herbs, such as sage or palo santo, to dispel negative energy.
- Sound Purification: Utilize sound vibrations from instruments like singing bowls, bells, or tuning forks to cleanse your crystals.
- Earth: Temporarily bury your crystals in the soil, allowing them to reconnect with the earth's natural energy. Remember the location for retrieval!
Charging and Renewing:
- Following the cleansing process, it becomes crucial to charge or renew your crystals to replenish their energy.
- One effective method involves placing your crystals on a Selenite charging plate or in close proximity to a sizable Amethyst or Quartz cluster for several hours.
Intention Setting and Manifestation:
- To amplify their energetic impact, crystals can be imbued with specific intentions or purposes.
- Grasp the crystal in your hand, close your eyes, and focus on your intention or desired outcome. Envision the crystal magnifying and bringing forth the manifestation of your intention.
- Express your intention audibly or in silence, enabling the crystal to absorb and amplify the energy of your stated purpose.
