Can rose quartz go in water or get wet?

How do you cleanse and charge rose quartz?

You can cleanse rose quartz under cool running water, by smudging with sage, or by placing it on selenite. Recharge it under gentle moonlight, ideally during a full moon, or alongside other quartz crystals. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight, which may fade its pink color.
