Amethyst is the stone of Wisdom. It facilitates purification, divine connection, and provides spiritual protection.
Amethyst stimulates the Crown, Third Eye, and etheric chakras, making it an excellent stone for meditation and divination. Lightworkers, Priestesses and healers all can benefit from the high frequency energy this gemstone emits. Placing an Amethyst geode in your home, meditation room, or healing center clears the space of negativity and is said to provide a “bubble of Light” that leaves you feeling protected and surrounded with high, sweet energy.
The mind, intuition, and psychic abilities are all enhanced with amethyst, but what truly makes it a Wisdom Goddess stone is the properties of understanding and discernment that amethyst facilitates. Working with amethyst brings awareness and knowing of root causes of negative patterns, addictive behaviors, and disease. Within deep spiritual work, amethyst may also be used for karmic clearing.

Selenite is a stone that aligns you with Divine consciousness and is a potent connector to Lunar Goddesses. It is named for Selene, Greek Goddess of the Moon. By meditating with Selenite and sleeping with it close to you, you may access the inherent woman wisdom and knowledge of Luna. When meditating, you may place your Selenite at your crown chakra and allow it to infuse and balance you, especially when feeling unbalanced emotionally.
Goddesses:
- Selene – Greek Goddess of the Moon
- Mawu – African Moon Goddess

- All Moon Goddesses
Selenite removes negative and stagnant energy from magickal tools and gemstones. It never needs to be cleansed, as it transforms and transmutes negative energy. Simply set your crystal on top of or next to a piece of selenite, and leave overnight.
I have found that my Selenite does like to soak up the rays of the Full Moon and I do this for a super-charge at the Full Moon. Selenite is a fragile, water-soluble crystal. Using water with it or leaving it exposed outdoors is not recommended.
