It is important to clean a crystal when your crystal arrives and then clean your crystals after you have been working with them, such as in healing work or meditation, as they absorb the negative energy.

While holding your crystal in your hands, visualise it immersed in white light, clearing it of any unwanted energies. Hold it for several minutes or as long as you feel inclined.
Hold your crystal under the tap and allow cold water to flow over it. As you do so, visualise all negative energies dissolving and washing away, transforming into positive healing energy. Water is not recommended for soaking Calcite, Opals, Pearls, Celestite, unpolished Malachite or Turquoise due to their composition they can dissolve or could be permanently damaged.
Morning sunlight gently cleanses your crystals and moonlight is a softer way to let light filter through your crystals and cleanse them. The best time for this is a full moon.
Using the smoke of sacred herbs such as sage, cedar, and lavender to smudge and cleanse the energetic matrix of crystals. Smudging with white sage removes negative energy from crystals and rooms in your house. (Smudging is to light the herbs and burn them, when the flame dies the embers burn creating smoke. You then pass your crystal through the smoke while asking it to be cleansed and purified.)
Place your crystals on a bed of rock salt for 24- 48 hours to purify the crystal's energetic matrix.
Bury them in the earth, soil or clay for 2 –7 days as this provides a slow and gentle form of cleansing. The longer you leave it the deeper the cleansing.

Exposure to dust, or moisture can damage or destroy some specimens.
If possible, use boxes made of plastic or acid-free materials to prevent chemical reactions between the specimen and it's container.
Keep small, fragile, or soft samples in individual or divided containers that are lined.
Try to keep each specimen separate so harder minerals don’t damage softer minerals.
