Satin Spar/Selenite Large wand
Starting a new crystal collection or wanting to add some extra cleansing and protection to your home/person, then Satin Spar is an ideal crystal to add to your collection!
Often confused with Selenite, a similar stone in the Gypsum mineral family, Satin Spar generally comes in a milky, white color and has a "cat's eye" effect giving it a sheen. In its raw form, it is a delicate, fibrous material that can be easily scratched, so handle with care. Unlike other crystals that need to be cleansed of additional energies, Satin Spar is self cleansing and can help to cleanse other stones in your collection as well. If you do decide to cleanse your Satin Spar, do it with lunar energy (moon), as it will disintegrate with the sun or with water.
Other metaphysical properties include: increasing mental awareness, protection against psychic attacks, bringing peace and calm, helps anxiety, cleansing negative energies from your space or your person.
I personally like to keep some Satin Spar above the doorways to my home/spaces to cleanse any energies that come through them and a small polished one stays on my person at all times. I also like to keep a small piece with my tarot and oracle decks.
