Crystals are much more than just a pretty sparkly decoration for your vanity and they're not just hippie dippy woo woo weird stuff either! But what exactly are they and is it really possible to use the powers of quartz crystals for healing?

WHAT IS A QUARTZ CRYSTAL?

Allow me get a little nerdy, and I'll tell you all about it!Quartz is the second most abundant natural minerals found on Earth. Simply put, quartz is composed of silicon and oxygen atoms with a chemical formula of SiO₂ which can present in many forms including common rocks or boulders, clusters, double terminated points, laser wands, singing crystals, single points, twin flames, generators, milky quartz, spirit quartz, geodes, record keepers, enhydros, transmitters, Dow formations, faden, phantom crystals, Isis crystals, self-healed, giant Earth Keepers, and more!

Quartz is also commonly combined with other minerals such as rutilated quartz, or colored crystals such as lithium quartz, golden healer quartz, rose quartz, amethyst , citrine, smokey quartz, chlorite phantom quartz, and sooo much more.

Quartz is versatile + amazing!

The most universally known quartz formation is a candle shaped, hexagonal, 6-sided prismatic crystalline formation with natural facets at one or both ends - aka the clear quartz crystal.

CLEAR QUARTZ IS THE MASTER HEALER

The Sacred Geometry of a 6-sided Clear Quartz Point contributes to its ability to magnify energetic vibrations. Quartz Points are wonderful crystals to use with any type of meditation or healing energy work such as Reiki, sound healing, dream work, aromatherapy, flower essence therapy, and more.

Clear Quartz Crystals amplify energy and thought, as well as the effect of other crystals. 

Clear Quartz Crystals are energy amplifiers. Whatever energy you bring, they will amplify whether it's clear and concise, muddled or confused, angry and disconnected, or joyful and enlightened. 

Consider quartz as a magnifying glass to your energy and emotions, and strive to use your crystals as healing tools with respect, intention, and mindfulness.

If you are feeling negative, you can turn it around by holding the crystal in your non-dominant hand, take a few deep breaths of awareness and ask the crystal to help you release the negativity with this simple meditation:

May the highest vibration of love and light connect me with my higher self to assist me now. My intention is to clear all of the negative energy and release everything that is no longer serving me. With the support of this crystal, I hold the intention of light, pure love, and protection. And so it is...

The crystal will be programmed with your intention and continue to assist you. You can carry it with you or place it somewhere you will see it regularly. The more often you program the crystal with this meditation the stronger it's healing energy will be.
