Selenite Double Terminated Point tapers to a sharp point at both ends, cut with flat, faceted sides rather than a rounded body. The stone is white to colourless with a soft, pearly lustre along the flat faces, symmetrical enough to display resting flat or propped upright against something nearby.
A double terminated point is often read as a two-way channel, drawing energy in and sending it back out from either end rather than in a single direction. Selenite is prized for clarity and a calming quality that settles a scattered mind, and it's also known for its self-cleansing nature and commonly used to cleanse other crystals placed nearby, making this a natural fit for a meditation space or crystal collection.

Geological Information
Selenite is a crystalline variety of gypsum, a calcium sulfate mineral, forming in sedimentary environments where mineral-rich water evaporates and deposits fibrous layers that solidify into translucent masses. It rates 2 to 2.5 on the Mohs hardness scale, soft enough to be scratched with a fingernail. Thin selenite slabs were once used as window material in ancient Mesopotamia and Rome before glass became widely available, and the stone's name derives from Selene, the Greek goddess of the moon. This piece is sourced from Morocco, the primary commercial source for retail selenite.
AuturaSol Standard
Each natural stone is selected for its authenticity, geological integrity, and energetic clarity. Natural variations in colour, structure, inclusions, and surface features are inherent to geological materials and contribute to the individuality of each piece. Any known treatments, enhancements, stabilization, or man-made characteristics are clearly disclosed within the product information where applicable. Every piece is inspected and photographed to reflect its true character; however, lighting conditions, screen settings, and natural variation may cause slight differences in appearance. If you have any questions about a piece before completing your purchase, we're always here to help. Where authenticity meets beauty, we tell you exactly what you're holding.
Care Note
Selenite is water soluble and will be permanently damaged by moisture. Keep dry, never rinse or soak it, and do not use it in water elixirs. It is also very soft (Mohs 2 to 2.5) and scratches easily, so handle gently and store away from harder stones.
