• There are many theories about the origins of selenite. The one that comes up most often and seems the most logical is linked to Greek mythology.
  In Greek mythology, the goddess of the moon is named Selene. Selene is the daughter of the titans Hyperion and Theia and reflects purity and benevolence. These are qualities also associated with the white moon.
  
  Another hypothesis explains that selenite comes from the Greek word “selenitis” which literally translates as moonstone. It is true that the stone has a shine similar to that of the star. Thus, many beliefs attribute lunar powers to this magnificent white stone.
  
  We find traces of selenite since Antiquity. Pliny the Elder (23 AD and 79 AD), famous Roman writer and naturalist, author of an encyclopedia entitled Natural History, explains to us that pure selenite was used in the manufacture of windows to replace glass. These white minerals (selenite, talc and micas) were referred to as lapis specularis, or specular stone.
  
  In the Middle Ages, selenite deposits were discovered and exploited in Germany. They produced crystals so large that they were used to protect miraculous images of the Virgin. These unusual varieties of crystals were called “marienglas” or Mary’s glass in German.
  
  In Italy, selenite is found in abundance around Bologna. It was widely used as a building material. Indeed, we find it in the manufacture of the first fortifications of the city and in that of the Towers of Bologna. Selenite is widely appreciated for its induration qualities (hardening of an organic material) and for its joined grains which are more imposing than those of Tuscan alabaster (white natural stone very popular in sculpture and stone cutting).
  
  Selenite is a variant of gypsum, a mineral species containing calcium sulfate dihydrate. When it is in its crystallized form, it has a translucent, even transparent appearance, with iridescent reflections (presenting the colors of the rainbow). It is therefore part of
  Be careful of the fragility of selenite: in fact, it has a hardness of 2 on the Mohs scale. For comparison, diamond has a hardness of 10 on this same scale. Selenite requires great care in its handling. It is essential not to put it in contact with water, as it tends to be soluble.
  
  The main deposits are in Morocco, Argentina, Brazil, Spain, etc.
  
  In lithotherapy, selenite is a purifying stone of our environment. It helps to chase away negative energies and attract positive energies. This has the effect of establishing a serenity within oneself, conducive to the elevation of the spirit and meditation. It develops intuition and provides a certain strength.
  This mineral helps bring blockages and traumas linked to the past to the surface. It causes the mind to open in order to receive energy, fight against its demons and overcome its complexes. It makes you want to move forward and overcome the difficulties encountered.
  
  Selenite is an excellent anti-stress stone. It gives you the opportunity to manage your emotions, your anxiety and your anguish. It provides openness towards others, encourages compassion and empathy. It generates understanding and good communication between the wearer and those around them.
  This fabulous stone is renowned for being a great gift for a pregnant woman. Its lunar energy accompanies her throughout her pregnancy, bringing well-being and tranquility.
  Psychologically speaking, selenite helps to refocus, to increase one's ability to concentrate, memorize and one's imagination. It is perfect for developing creativity and for students during exam periods. We find traces of selenite since Antiquity. Pliny the Elder (23 AD and 79 AD), famous Roman writer and naturalist, author of an encyclopedia entitled Natural History, explains to us that pure selenite was used in the manufacture of windows to replace glass. These white minerals (selenite, talc and micas) were grouped under the term lapis specularis, or fibrous gypsum. It is sometimes confused with moonstone, which belongs to the feldspar family.
