Guest guest Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 hi, i am wondering if i take a small amount of selenite, and let it dissolve fully in water, will this be harmful to drink ? there are many metals which are good for us, such as monoatomic gold, silver, etc, i am wanting to have a super charged selenite infusion within myself as its such a pure stone, doing the indirect elixir making does not seem to work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 I would not use this stone in water Peggy posted a while ago and a few other sources I am aware of warn against this " Selenite--Unfit for internal ingestion--tiny shards may break off in water " you can place your liquid in a jar and place the stones you wish to get the properties from and encircle your container and pass its energy that way I find these can be very powerful and potent hope this helps On Fri, Feb 19, 2010 at 4:44 PM, holyreality11 <holyreality11wrote: > > > hi, i am wondering if i take a small amount of selenite, and let it > dissolve fully in water, will this be harmful to drink ? > > there are many metals which are good for us, such as monoatomic gold, > silver, etc, > > i am wanting to have a super charged selenite infusion within myself as its > such a pure stone, > > doing the indirect elixir making does not seem to work > > > -- Have a Happy and Keep Smiling TTFN Angelina Thelin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(mini rant off) ... lol So, from personal experience (and no ill effects that I am aware of) go ahead and put selenite in your drinking water for making an elixir but don't expect it to dissolve ... lol Blessings to your weekend all.

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 that is interesting to know I have not yet played with selenite, on a whole I ask the stones where they will work best , ones I know have no toxic properties if they will be stronger, if I place them in water some will and some resound NO, while some will resound yes. the advice I shared I have followed given from others on the selenite, it is good to have your knowledge to share thank you so much it is good to have this group so we can bounce ideas and realms of knowledge off each other, some other place that don't have people who like to pipe in that its all evil and I am dabbling in voodoo, as I do so much with stones and other therapies lol, or should I say that I have been informed that what I do is of the devil, good grief if it is why does it discuss it in the scriptures lol. I do not work with arts that are dark and evil. rofl give ma a break I work with the positive good energies of the world to build and strengthen and I include my diety/heavely father as well as the powers of heaven in all I do because he gave me the abilities I have oh goodness i got off on a rant too so I know where your coming from, thankyou for your wisdome and taking time to share it with me/us namanaste > > > (mini rant off) ... lol > > So, from personal experience (and no ill effects that I am aware of) go > ahead and put selenite in your drinking water for making an elixir but > don't > expect it to dissolve ... lol > > > Blessings to your weekend all. > ReNau > > -- Have a Happy and Keep Smiling TTFN Angelina Thelin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 I would blame that more on the softness and delicate nature of selenite then on the water, especially if you have a washer with an agitator (top loading) and not a front loading washer. Even in a front loading washer it would take a beating. Any crystal you can scratch with your finger nail certainly needs to be handled with care in regard to tumbling action. ;-) " Codail, suaimhnigh i nge/aga nadragain " " Sleep, rest in the arms of the Dragon " In a message dated 2/20/2010 3:17:47 P.M.

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 But do were they washed in a top loading washer? have you ever kept the lid open and stuck a pen in the plate-switch that tells the machine the lid is closed so that it runs (agitates)? The agitator is by no means gentle. When we switched from a top load to a front load (which I always liked better anyway from my laudro-mat days), even my husband notices a LOT less lint because the tumbling action is much more gentle then the agitator action. Clothes don't wear out as quickly just from being washed!! So, that being said and being very familiar with selenite, I still have no doubt the damage was done by more by the machine and not the water, although the water did give more mobility to things. I had accidentally left a piece of Zincite in a jeans pocket and it went through the wash (in the front loader) and came out in several pieces and it is harder then selenite!!

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 No it does not. From Wikipedia: _http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selenite_(mineral_ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selenite_(mineral) ) Selenite, satin spar, desert rose, and gypsum flower are four varieties of _gypsum_ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gypsum) ; all four varieties show obvious _crystalline_ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal) structure. The four " crystalline " varieties of gypsum are sometimes grouped together and called selenite. All varieties of gypsum, including selenite and _alabaster_ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alabaster) , are composed of _calcium sulfate_ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_sulfate) dihydrate (meaning has two molecules of water), with the chemical formula CaSO4·2H2O.

Guest guest Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 Interesting discussion. I have not used selenite personally, but recently I must admit that I've become quite drawn to it. I have also felt myself becoming drawn to new colors that I've never liked before such as pale mint blues and soft violet blue, such as that of the peruvian blue opal and the blue lace agate and blue chalcedony. thanks, -Charlene holyreality11 Feb 20, 2010 7:25 PM Re: [CrystalHW] on making selenite elixir the piscean do what we say or die church is the devil , but anyway in your defense , but don't ever argue with those types of folks, gemstones are all over the bible, in breast plates, etc AND i did not know it does not dissolve, this is wonderful i've been yearning for a good selenite dirnk. , Angelina Thelin <Angelina.Thelin wrote: > > that is interesting to know > I have not yet played with selenite, on a whole I ask the stones where > they will work best , ones I know have no toxic properties if they will be > stronger, if I place them in water some will and some resound NO, while some > will resound yes. > the advice I shared I have followed given from others on the selenite, it > is good to have your knowledge to share thank you so much > > it is good to have this group so we can bounce ideas and realms of > knowledge off each other, some other place that don't have people who like > to pipe in that its all evil and I am dabbling in voodoo, as I do so much > with stones and other therapies lol, or should I say that I have been > informed that what I do is of the devil, good grief if it is why does it > discuss it in the scriptures lol. > I do not work with arts that are dark and evil. rofl give ma a break I > work with the positive good energies of the world to build and strengthen > and I include my diety/heavely father as well as the powers of heaven in > all I do because he gave me the abilities I have > oh goodness i got off on a rant too > > so I know where your coming from, thankyou for your wisdome and taking time > to share it with me/us > > namanaste > > > > > > > (mini rant off) ... lol > > > > So, from personal experience (and no ill effects that I am aware of) go > > ahead and put selenite in your drinking water for making an elixir but > > don't > > expect it to dissolve ... lol > > > > > > Blessings to your weekend all. > > ReNau > > > > > > -- > Have a Happy and Keep Smiling > TTFN > Angelina Thelin > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 I had a piece of Moldavite that I had wrapped in silver as a pendant, but couldn't wear because I get rashes from wearing necklaces. Anyhow, I recently left in a pocket of my jeans and forgot about it until after I started pulling pieces of the pendant out of the wash. So, yeah, Selenite which is a weaker stone will break up in the washer and dryer. Ah, well. With that being said I would not personally put selenite in drinking water due to it being a weak stone and cleaving off into shards. Indirect method would prolly be best.

Guest guest Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 i have begun putting a tumbled selenite in water for a few minutes, to an hour or two just now, it does not notably dissolve it seems that it quickly infuses water with light, though not positive, i felt general improvements in the light in my body after having a few glasses that way , and felt that it had recharged seual energy, as a male, i used to find that my selenite crystal sphere until it disappeared, did this very nicely , i put a glass of water with a jade toroid in a crystal singing bowl over night with tumbled selenite around the outside of the glass, and it had a wonderful amount of energy in it this morning , , C Russ <lorena34 wrote: > > Interesting discussion.
