Collection: Selenite

Selenite meaning:

Selenite is named for Selene, the Greek goddess of the Full Moon who bathes in the ocean before starting her nightly trek across the sky in her chariot driven by a team of white bulls.  She is associated with the color white, radiance, peaceful sleep, steadfast love, fertility, nighttime sex, pregnancy, lactation, gentle healing, full moon, motherhood, silver, and roundedness in appearance, such as a round face or breasts.  Her brother is Helios, the Greek god of the Sun.  

Selene is best known for her eternal love of a mortal, Endymion, a shepherd that she fell in love with at first sight.  She asked Zeus to grant Endymion immortality so that she could be with him in his youth forever.  Zeus put the young man in a perpetual sleep so Selene could kiss and caress him every night.  Although he was always asleep, they produced fifty daughters.
