3 Simple methods to cleanse Red Jasper
If you are new to the beautiful world of crystals, you may be feeling a little overwhelmed when it comes to cleansing. Keeping your crystal vibrating at its highest potential and pure is vital to reap its full benefits.
Cleansing doesn’t have to be complicated or even take a lot of time. Three simple but effective cleansing methods are:
- Sound
- Natural light
- Breath
Let’s look at these methods, and hopefully, you will find one that resonates with you
Method 1: Cleanse your Red Jasper with sound
Using sound is a beautiful and versatile method of cleansing your Red Jasper. Anything that makes a reverberating sound is perfect to use for cleansing. There are no rules that you have to follow; whatever sound resonates with you will cleanse your crystals perfectly.
With that being said, there are commonly used instruments in sound energy cleansing such as singing bowls, gongs, bells, drums, chimes, tuning forks, and even your own voice praying or repeating a mantra.
You can leave your Red Jasper where it is and take the sound to it, or you can gather it up into one spot. The sound energy you use to cleanse your Red Jasper will simultaneously cleanse the room you are in.
First, you want to set your intentions; this is always an important step. Next, start the music and let it wash over your piece of Red Jasper, and visualize the stuck, unwanted energy being carried away.
Cleansing with sound energy doesn’t take long and is very simple. Focus the music on your Red Jasper for about 10 minutes. Of course, if you feel they need longer, then take as much time as you think is necessary.
Method 2: Cleanse your Red Jasper with natural light
Moonlight is a popular way to cleanse crystals, and for a good reason. The soft moonlight is gentle on your beloved crystals but carries powerful vibrations to bring your crystal back to its natural state. Using the full moon for cleansing is ideal but not necessary.
Every moon phase carries its own vibrations, the full moon being the most powerful. If you have a spot outside that receives moonlight for a few hours or a window sill. You can put your Red Jasper there, set your intentions, and leave it there overnight.
The sun also offers excellent cleansing abilities. While the sun’s rays are a bit harsher. It is ideal to use the softer morning sun, and you only need to leave your Red Jasper out for four hours. A sunny spot outside or a sun-soaked windowsill is perfect for cleansing.
Method 3: Cleanse your Red Jasper using your breath
If you are interested in using your own energies to cleanse your Red Jasper, then using your breath might be what you are looking for.
This is a great way to connect to your crystals and cleanse them simultaneously.
Hold your Red Jasper in your hand, preferably your dominant hand. Take a deep inhale, purse your lips and exhale directly at the Red Jasper.
Keep your intentions at the forefront of your mind. Repeat for three cycles of breath. If you feel that your Red Jasper is carrying a lot of unwanted energy, then repeat as needed. Trust your intuition.
If you have a lot of crystals you are using your breath to cleanse at once, then be sure to take breaks. You are using your own energy and may get tired out during the cleansing process.

Red Jasper is associated with the Root Chakra and is charged beautifully by returning it to earth. You can bury it in your garden or a pot of soil while setting your intentions for what you want from the Red Jasper and leaving it for 24 hours.
