How to Cleanse Snowflake Obsidian: 3 Simple Methods

Hello,

I’m Natalie Black, author of Crystador. I write about spirituality, personal growth, and healing.

Whether you’re just beginning your spiritual journey or looking to deepen your practice, I hope my writing will inspire and guide you along the way.

Snowflake Obsidian has so much to offer you, bringing such strong energies to help transform your life by recognizing toxic patterns within yourself.

While the Snowflake Obsidian is hard at work surrounding you with supporting energies, it also absorbs negativity from you, your environment, and any other people who may cross its path.

Keeping your crystals cleansed and vibrating at their highest potential doesn’t have to be complicated. Performing a cleansing routine will help you bring your Snowflake Obsidian back to its purest form.

Three simple methods to cleanse Snowflake Obsidian

When it comes to cleansing your Snowflake Obsidian, it is a good idea to keep it easy-to-follow and straightforward to ensure you don’t get overwhelmed. You don’t want to bring that energy to your cleansing session. Three simple ways you can cleanse your Snowflake Obsidian are:

  • Natural light
  • Sage
  • Selenite

Let’s take a look at these methods and how they are performed.

Method 1: cleanse your Snowflake Obsidian with natural light

Natural light is an excellent cleansing method for your Snowflake Obsidian. You can use moonlight or sunlight, whichever you prefer and feel the most drawn to. You can even switch it up and use them both at different times.

Moonlight is a soft, subtle, but compelling energy. Aligning your cleansing with the full moon will add very positive vibrations to your cleansing practice.

If you don’t have a safe space outside to leave your Snowflake Obsidian, a windowsill will work just fine. You want to set your intentions as you place your Snowflake Obsidian outside or on your windowsill and leave it there overnight.

Sunlight has much more aggressive energy, and you only need to leave your crystal out for 4 hours in the sunlight.

Again, find a safe spot to place your Snowflake Obsidian inside or on a sun-soaked windowsill. The morning sun is less harsh and less likely to damage your crystal. State your intentions aloud or in your mind and let the sun cleanse away any toxic, negative energy.

Method 2: cleanse your Snowflake Obsidian with sage

Cleansing with sage is a practice that has roots that go back thousands of years. You can use sage to cleanse your home, yourself, and your crystals.

White sage is most commonly used during cleansing, and you can use twine to create a bundle, or you can use the leaves loose and burn them in a fire-safe bowl.

Please open the windows before you ignite the sage, it has thick smoke, and you don’t want to set the fire alarms off, and you want to give somewhere for the negative energies to go instead of floating around your home.

Next, light your sage bundle or pile of loose leaves and let it burn for about 30 seconds, and when you blow it out, it will continue to smolder and release smoke.

You want to hold your Snowflake Obsidian in your hand and let the smoke engulf your crystal. Some people use a feather to waft the smoke around their crystal, but your hand will do just fine.

While you are doing this, say your intentions aloud or in your mind and visualize the smoke carrying away the unwanted energies your Snowflake Obsidian was holding.

Focus on each of your crystals individually and for about 30 seconds each to refresh and renew their vibrations.

Method 3: cleanse your Snowflake Obsidian using Selenite

Selenite is a powerful and self-cleansing crystal commonly used to cleanse and charge other crystals. You will need a piece of Selenite that is bigger than your Snowflake Obsidian; you can purchase Selenite plates and bowls, which are excellent for cleansing.

You want your Snowflake Obsidian and the Selenite touching as much as possible.

Place your crystal on your Selenite, state your intentions, and leave it there for 24 hours. Of course, if you think your Snowflake Obsidian carries heavy energies, you can always leave it longer.

How to charge Snowflake Obsidian crystal?

Snowflake Obsidian is a powerful grounding crystal, and a great way to charge it is to bury it. If you have a garden or a pot of soil, you can bury your Snowflake Obsidian, set your intentions, leave it for 24 hours, and collect your freshly charged crystal.

How often do I need to cleanse Snowflake Obsidian?

It would be best if you aimed to cleanse your Snowflake Obsidian at least once a month.

It is important to release built-up toxic energies, and creating a monthly routine is a great way to cleanse your crystal to keep it fresh and vibrating at its purest frequency.
