Physical Characteristics: A form of crystallized gypsum (a hydrous calcium sulfate). Hardness 2. Gypsum is a common mineral found in many locations, especially in clay beds, evaporated seas, salt flats, and caves. Selenite comes in many forms. This selenite is fibrous, and has been carved into a dull knife shape. CAUTION: VERY FRIABLE, SHARDS MAY BE EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS TO INGEST OR BREATHE. THIS KNIFE IS NOT SHARP, NOR SHOULD ANY ATTEMPT BE MADE TO MAKE IT SHARP. Not recommended for elixirs.
Metaphysical Properties: This piece can be used as an altar piece or as an attractive decoration when not in use. The fibrous form of Selenite is reminiscent of an optic fiber--if you shine light on one end, it will be carried to the other through the Selenite. Therefore, it is a good conductor of energy. It can also be used to achieve clarity of mind. When used in meditation, you may be able to see the inner workings of situations and see where things are going.
