Rock/Mineral Info:

Selenite is a variety of gypsum known for its beautiful translucence and moonlike white color. It is often mistaken for satin spar because satin spar is its polymorph. This means that selenite and satin spar are both types of gypsum with the exact same chemical composition, but they crystallize differently. Whereas satin spar is composed of an acicular (or needle-like) structure that sometimes exhibits a cat's-eye effect, selenite will never show cat's-eye and its structure resembles flat sheets stacked on top of each other rather than needle-like crystals. 

Selenite is associated with the moon due to its ghostly beauty. It was therefore named "selenite" after Selene, the Greek goddess of the moon.

Metaphysical Properties:

Selenite is tied to the zodiac sign Cancer (which is ruled by the moon), so it bears strong themes of intuition, emotion, and healing. It is often used to spiritually charge or cleanse objects, places, or even people. Selenite resonates primarily with the crown, third eye, and heart chakras.
