Crystal Wednesday - Crystals That Cannot Go In Water

-
Helli all!! Today's Crystal Wednesday is about Crystals that cannot go in water!!



As you know, there are many ways to cleanse Crystals and use Crystals in ritual/spellwork but, not every cleansing method is safe for every Crystal. Some can't go in sunlight, some can't go in salt and some can't go in water.

 If you're just starting out, you might not know what can and can't go in what. This is where we come in!!



Crystals not safe for water

Below is a list of Crystals that aren't water safe. As there are so many Crystals, more are being added to this list all the time so I will be making updated lists as and when I find out:


- Any crystal that contains Copper!
- Azurite
- Fluorite
- Pyrite
- Talc
- Kunzite
- Aquamarine
- Kyanite
- Turquoise
- Ruby
- Amazonite
- Moonstone
- Desert Rose
- Lapis Lazuli
- Calcite
- Gypsum
- Malachite
- Angelite
- Celestine
- Amber
- Selenite
- Opal/Fire Opal (Australian Boulder Opal is water safe)
- Imperial Topaz
- Red Coral
- Apophyllite
- Tangerine Quartz
- Lepidolite
- Ulexite
- Apatite
- Halite
- Labradorite
- Hematite
- Ammolite
- Rhodochrosite



I am unsure what makes these Crystals unsafe in water but it's best to be safe!

I'll cover other aspects of Crystal safety in future posts!

    Many of these I can understand...but ruby?! Is it because there is a toxic metal in the crystal? xxx

Emporiblog - November Full Moon + Total Lunar Eclipse 2022

Hello all!! Don't be confused by the picture, all will be revealed!! This month's Full Moon in Taurus ♉ will be accompanied by a total Lunar Eclipse!! So, with the total lunar eclipse, and a meteor shower to boot, energies are quite fraught this month, and that counts as the energies within you too. This turbulent time is said to activate your inner rebel, that little voice within you that says 'what if we just...' Authority will grate on you, especially if it is misused and power is being abused, and this will prompt you to start flouting the rules. There is lots of incoherent stuff in your mind at the moment, the Moon calls you to surrender that, the eclipse calls you to do so fully and without abandon. Start marching to the sound of your own beat!  We need to shift this out of the way, so that we can align with our purpose. Sitting quietly tonight, letting everything go and embracing what is left will allow you to do this successfully.  You have probably

Emporiblog - Correcting Misinformation

Hello all! Today's post is kind of a serious one. Looking back through some of our previous posts, I have realised that some of the information that I gave is in fact, incorrect ! This post will hopefully set the record straight. The previous posts will still stand to serve as a reminder to always cross-reference and research thoroughly to avoid the mistakes that I made. Correction 1  ROSEMARY IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR ANY HERB!  Rosemary can only be substituted for herbs that it shares properties with. And, while we're here: - Rose cannot be substituted for any flower. Only the ones it shares properties with - Frankincense and Copal cannot be substituted for any incense/oil/gum resin. Only the ones that they share properties with - Tobacco cannot be substituted for any poisonous herbs. Only the ones that it shares properties with - Clear Quartz cannot be used as a substitute for any Crystal. Only the ones that it shares properties with As far as I know, White candle
