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 cut to form a flat base. The other end is left rough, and it resembles a skyscraper or castle tower. The base has been hollowed out to receive a light bulb base, as well as a notch to allow the cord to pass (NOT INCLUDED). It is likely that this lamp will become very hot if a standard incandescent light bulb is used. Therefore, it is highly recommended that a LED bulb is used, or a very low wattage incandescent bulb. CAUTION: VERY FRIABLE, SHARDS MAY BE EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS TO INGEST OR BREATHE. CARE SHOULD BE USED IF CUTTING OR CARVING THIS MATERIAL. Not recommended for elixirs.

Metaphysical Properties: This piece can be used as an altar piece or as an attractive night light or "mood" light. 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.
