Selene, the moon goddess

A warning though, not to get selenite wet, as it will dissolve!

@Francisco did an experiment with this that shows it does dissolve, but quite slowly.

Does Selenite Dissolve in Water? My Experiment: 1 Hour/Day/Week

I’ve read several times that Selenite is a very soft stone and it will dissolve in water. Some of the suggestions I’ve seen is not to leave it outside in case it rains, not submerge it under water, and to never soak it because it will completely dissolve. I am really curious about how much truth there is in that, and the only way to found out is by putting some selenite underwater! Selenite in Water: Will it Dissolve?

A selenite crystal

And moonstones, too. They’re my favourite. I’m biased.
