CLEAR QUARTZ
Quartz, as silicon dioxide, crystallises in form of masses, grains, druses, and prismatic hexagonal crystals. It is also known as rock crystals. (Rose quartz, Smokey quartz, Citrine and Amethyst )
Quartz has both piezoelectric and pyroelectric properties. The polarity of the quartz crystal will change when it is either subjected to pressure or heat, as well as when it is held in the hand. The tip, normally positive and receiving energy and will then change and become negative, thuse, emitting energy which will radiate from the tip or from an edge. These properties support the amplification, focusing, storage, transfer, and transformation of energy.
Quartz can be used to dispel static electricity and can provide for conversion and redirection of the energy towards a beneficial state. It produces a naturally balanced, solid-state energy field, modifying the energy available in accordance with the understanding of the user.
Quartz crystals can be used to amplify both body energy and thoughts. They can assist in the creation of power and can provide for clarity in thinking to enable thoughts to more effectively influence matter.
Quartz is said to bring the energy of the stars into the soul. Traditionally, the natural quartz crystal was said both harmonize and align human energies, thoughts, consciousness, emotions with the energies of the universe and to make these greater energies available to humanity. The natural tendency of quartz is for harmony and it is recognized as a stone of power.
The quartz crystal is the connection between the physical dimension and the dimensions of the mind. It can be used to communicate with minerals, plants, animals, and intelligent forces outside the physical dimension. In early times, when all things were thought to be conscious parts of a greater living consciousness, the quartz crystal was believed to synchronize the individual and total consciousness with that of the heavens and the advanced life-forms.
The quartz crystal can be used to facilitate both speaking with and receiving information from the spiritual and other-worldly masters, teachers and healers.
It can also be used to transform thoughts into sound, producing the vibration associated with the thought and affecting the environment with the discharged energy.
The quartz crystal can create altered states of consciousness and can serve as a vehicle for both reaching and utilizing the talents and abilities of the mind. All of the psychic abilities can be stimulated and amplified by the use of this mineral. It further assist one in retaining calmness and clarity in all situations, decreasing the amount of negative affectation which could inhibit emotional stability. It provides for enhanced energy and promotes perseverance and patience, as well as for restful sleep.
Quartz crystals were used in atlantis and lemuria for rejuvenation, and in the development of a complete civilisation of incredible power and splendour. The misuse of crystals is said to have induced the destruction of these civilizations. This is a lesson from which to learn not to experience. If one uses the energy of the quartz crystals or any other mineral, for purposes other then ‘for the good of all’, the experience of destructive forces within ones life will be invited.
Quartz crystals can be used to clear and to activate the energy centres of the body. It attunes well to the heart chakra and responds very well at the third eye chakra. Placing the crystals at the area of the third eye, during meditation, seems to enable one to focus more clearly with the mind such that the mind can become empty. This may be attributed to the feeling of ‘oneness’ conveyed during the meditation. It further promotes the reflection and magnification of images and thoughts, so that one may evaluate the inner reaches of the self. Placement of the crystal upon the heart chakra, can help to clear emotional disturbances from ones being. It also further enhances the states of self-acceptance and self-love.
Use of quartz to activate the crown chakra has been quite effective. The spiralling effect of the energy produces a clear pathway for the movement to the Kundalini and for access to the realm of spirituality. If, however, one has not overcome personal ‘will’ and the crown chakra is opened via the quartz crystals, the available energy could produce disruption within the emotional, physical, and spiritual centres. The opening of this chakra provides a pathway for communication from the higher-self. The best results being obtained when the ‘will’ is willing and receptive to following the higher guidance.
The quartz crystal provides for purification of the physical, mental, and spiritual bodies. It is also a healer of negativity associated with ones perspectives and judgments. It can be used to focus upon the inner negativity and to stimulate positive thoughts and feelings. It can also direct ones materialistic energies towards the spiritual realm. It can further enhance the flow of and can direct, ones positive thoughts and feelings towards the ‘light, love and harmony of the planet’, teaching ones to live, laugh, and love with all brothers and sisters.
Quartz induces amplification of the energy field in the location in which it resides. The quartz crystal can produce a force field of healing negative ions while clearing the surrounding atmosphere of positive ions. It also tends to cancel the harmful effects of radiation and radioactivity. Wherever worn or carried, it acts as a physical and mental energizer. It also enhances and protects the aura and provides for amplification of the energy field of the body. Placed pointing towards the crown chakra or beneath the pillow during sleep, it can also bring wisdom and clarity to dreams and can help one to understand the messages and the lessons conveyed during the dream state. If worn close to the neck, it can stimulate the thyroid and parathyroid glands, being also helpful for respiratory problems such as congestion and sore throat.
If worn over the heart, it can stimulate the thymus and can increase the efficiency of both the immune system and ones defends against disease. If worn over the solar plexus, it can provide for the stimulation of total body energies, and can also increase ones emotional fields. If worn on the fingers, it enhances ‘the midas touch’, if worn on the wrist, it provides stimulation to the meridians which represent survival and protection of the physical and emotional bodies. When worn at the third eye, it can stimulate mental clarity, facilitating deep meditative states and activating psychic abilities. When worn as earrings, quartz crystals can provide for balancing of the physical body, for alignment with the higher realms, for stabilisation and balancing of all chakras, for clearing and activation of the throat chakra and the third-eye, and for synchronicity between the left and right hemispheres of the brain. A single quartz crystal carried on ones person or placed in ones environment will assist in maintaining balance, energy and protection.
Whether the crystal is worn, carried or placed in ones environment, the force, the warmth, and the brilliance remain attuned to the energy to the one to whom it is connected.
Experimentation with Kirlian photography shows that the direction in which the point is worn makes very little difference. There is actually an overall increase in the energy field no matter which way the crystal points.
Pointing the crystal ‘up’ has channelled energy into the upper chakras, causing some people to be so stimulated that they felt they were leaving their bodies. Using the crystal while positioned in this direction has been beneficial for meditation, prayer, study, and taking tests.
Pointing the crystal ‘down’, there has been a slight grounding effect as energy was directed towards the lower body and the earth, tending to maintain more efficient grounding and assisting one in remaining more ‘in tune’ with the world. Pointing the crystal horizontally, a small increase has been noted in the energy in front of the body, with large increases on the sides.
Kirlian photograph shows that if one holds a crystal in the receiving hand, the etheric fields of the body are at least doubled.
‘clear’ quartz is used extensively in meditation, spiritual development, and healing. It helps one to recognise the origin of a disease and has been use for this purpose quite extensively by the inhabitants of atlantis and lemuria, by the native Americans Indians, the African tribal systems, the ancient Egyptian culture, the mayans and Aztecs, the australine aborigines, the romans, scots, celts, Tibetan Buddhists, brahmans, and many other during the days of the ‘old ways’. It has been used by these cultures in diagnostic healing, in raising the consciousness towards the enlightened state, and in communicating with the spirits and with those from other worlds.
Quartz and quartz crystals have been used for religious purposes since ancient times. Quartz is one of the seven precious substances of Buddhism. It was also said to have been one of the stones used in the breastplate of the high priest. Ancient priests used quartz crystals to render negative energy impotent, to dissolve enchantments and spells, and to destroy all black magic.
Romans used quartz crystals for glandular swelling, to reduce fevers and to relieve pain.
In the Scottish Highlands, a crystal set in silver and worn about the back was thought to be effective for diseases of the kidneys.
In medieval times, the quartz crystal was held against the tongue to assuage fever and diminish thirst.
The quartz crystal can also be used in the treatment of disorders of the circulatory system. It has been used in the treatment of vertigo, to stabilise dizziness, and to promote emotional stability. Holding the crystal to and area to the skin which has been burned, has eliminated pain, blistering and any trace of the burn. A topical elixir of the quartz crystal has been quite beneficial to skin disorders. An elixir, taken internally, has been used in the elimination of toxins from the body. It can also be used in the treatment of digestive disorders and in the elimination of kidney and bladder infections and dysfunctions.
