The spiritual meaning of Sunstone is the representation of the ultimate energetic source of light, warmth, and life on our planet.

Sunstone is a stone of divine masculine energy. As a perfect complementary stone to Moonstone, Sunstone embodies the universal life force energy which centres around expansion, action, forward movement, and linear qualities.

By working with Sunstone, you can begin to develop your masculine qualities, regardless of your gender.

This means that specific tasks or challenges which require more masculine energy will become more accessible, such as increasing assertiveness, leading groups of people, or completing tasks that require you to work alone, relying on only your strength.

Similarly, Sunstone has been used to treat rheumatism throughout history. By sitting in the sun and surrounding themselves with Sunstones, patients could receive the powerful healing which this stone can provide. Also, having extended contact with Sunstones has been said to provide relief to feet and spinal problems.

Sunstone also carries in it the power of the colour orange as well as the sacral chakra. Both of these energetic focal points pertain to your creativity, your leadership, your free will, and also your sexuality.

By working with Sunstone, you can refocus on pursuing the passions and drives that light a fire in your soul. This stone is not about inner reflection; it’s about outer action, taking charge, manifesting your dreams, and improving your can-do attitude.

Sunstone also works to improve movement, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. It increases your joy and metabolism, leading to increased levels of heat and exertion.

By working with Sunstone, you may be more able to enter into a new beginning or new chapter of your life. The Hindu god Ganesha is often depicted in Sunstone sculptures for his representation as the god of new beginnings.

Cleansing Sunstone

If you own a Sunstone and use it often, it will need to be cleared and cleansed regularly.

The clearing process is necessary before using any stone for healing because the clearer the energy of a healing stone is, the more powerful it will be.

Your Sunstone needs to be cleansed as soon as you buy them and after every use. A ready and clean Sunstone feels positive, bright, tingly, and cold to the touch.

You will know when your Sunstone needs cleansing when it starts to feel hot, heavy, or drained. There are many ways to effectively cleanse your Sunstone.

Sea Salt Cleansing

Sea salt gets rid of any kind of negativity and is a very effective disinfectant of both physical and psychic disruptions.

Use sea salt every time your Sunstone is overloaded with negative energy. Just a tablespoon of sea salt and a glass of cold water is all you need. Let your Sunstone soak overnight.

To use dry salt, place some in a non-plastic container, and leave the Sunstones there overnight. 

Moon Light Cleansing

Moonlight is another method of cleansing your Sunstone. Simply place it outside on a full moon or a new moon.

Try to avoid placing them under the direct heat of the sun because their colours may fade, or they may break or crack.

Earth Cleansing

Crystals may also be buried into the earth. This is especially helpful when you feel that your Sunstone needs deep cleansing.

Just head outside and dig a hole the same size of your Sunstone, placing it point down and covering it with the soil.

Water Cleansing

Finally, you can also cleanse your Sunstone by running them under cool tap water.

During this process, visualize the Sunstone as sparkly, tingly, cold, and belonging to just you!
