Bathing in the Light: How Sunlight and Moonlight Can Help You Cleanse and Charge Your Crystals

Updated: May 19, 2023


Cleansing and charging crystals with sunlight and moonlight are two common methods used to energetically cleanse and recharge crystals.


Sunlight is a powerful natural purifier and particularly effective for energizing and revitalizing crystals. It infuses them with the vibrancy and vitality of the sun's energy. Moonlight is a gentle and calming energy that is ideal for cleansing and charging crystals.


Here is how you do it:

Cleansing & Charging through Sunlight ☀️


1) Choose a sunny day, preferably during the early morning or late afternoon when the sun's rays are not too harsh.

2) Find a location where your crystals can be exposed to direct sunlight. This can be a windowsill, a garden, or any other outdoor area.

3) Place your crystals in a spot where they can bask in the sunlight for a few hours. Make sure they are not at risk of being knocked over or damaged.

4) Allow the crystals to absorb the sunlight's energy for at least 2-4 hours. The exact duration may vary depending on the crystal type and personal preference.

5) After the desired exposure time, retrieve your crystals. They should feel refreshed and energetically cleansed.


However, some crystals can be sensitive to prolonged exposure to sunlight. Certain crystals, like Amethyst, Rose quartz, Celestite, and Smoky Quartz, may fade or lose their colour when exposed to direct sunlight for extended periods.


Cleansing & Charging through Moonlight 🌕


1) Choose a clear night when the moon is visible. The full moon is often considered the most potent for charging crystals, but you can use any moon phase.

2) Find a spot where your crystals can be placed outdoors, ideally under direct moonlight. Alternatively, you can use a windowsill or a balcony if direct moonlight is not possible.

3) Arrange your crystals in a place where they will receive the moonlight throughout the night. Ensure they are secure and won't be disturbed.

4) Leave your crystals outside overnight, allowing them to bathe in the moonlight. If you can't leave them outside, a few hours of moonlight exposure indoors can also be effective.

5) Retrieve your crystals the following morning. They should feel cleansed and recharged with the lunar energy.


Moonlight is generally safe for all crystals and doesn't cause any harm or fading.


Remember that intention plays a crucial role in working with crystals. As you place your crystals in sunlight or moonlight, you can also set an intention or visualize the light energy clearing away any negative energy and charging the crystals with positive vibrations. This helps enhance the cleansing and charging process.


If you have doubts about a specific crystal, it's always a good idea to research the specific needs and sensitivities beforehand to ensure the best care.
