History and Origin of Selenite
White selenite is a fascinating stone that takes its name from Selene, the Greek goddess of the moon. It has been valued and used for centuries. In ancient times, selenite was considered the "moonstone" and was often used in religious ceremonies. The ancient Greeks and Romans believed that this stone could capture and reflect the light of the moon. Selenite is found primarily in countries such as the United States, Morocco and Mexico, where it is mined in desert regions.
Origin and Natural Properties
Selenite is a crystalline form of the mineral gypsum that forms by evaporation in saline lakes and inlets. It is formed by the deposition of calcium sulfate in water-rich environments. Selenite is known for its transparency and pearly sheen. Due to its relatively low hardness of 2 on the Mohs scale, selenite is sensitive to scratches and should therefore be handled with care. The stone is easily cleaved and often shows a fibrous structure that gives it a unique appearance.
Science and Composition
White selenite consists of hydrated calcium sulfate (CaSO₄ · 2H₂O). Its clear to white color and translucent character are caused by the crystalline structure, which refracts light in a fascinating way. Selenite is classified as a gypsum mineral and is one of the most common evaporites on earth. Despite its low hardness, it is characterized by a natural ability to reflect light and produce a certain luminosity, which makes it particularly popular for decorative applications and jewelry.
Spiritual Meanings and Benefits
In esotericism, white selenite is said to have a strong energetic effect. Many believe that it promotes clarity and calm and helps to drive away negative energies. Selenite is often referred to as the "stone of light" and is said to support meditation and strengthen the connection to the spiritual world. It is often used in healing stone sessions and is considered particularly helpful in creating a pure and positive energy. However, there is no scientifically proven evidence for these effects. Nevertheless, selenite remains a popular stone in spiritual practice due to its aesthetic and symbolic properties.
care and maintenance
To preserve the beauty of a white selenite, careful care is important. The ring should not come into contact with water or chemicals, as selenite is water-soluble and can dissolve or be damaged. It is recommended to wipe the ring with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and dirt. Store the ring in a safe place, away from hard objects that could scratch the stone. Proper care will keep the ring radiant and beautiful for a long time.
