You’re walking along the beach or lakeshore and a stone catches your eye. This is no accident. Rocks, crystals, gems, fossils and shells may seem lifeless but these members of the mineral kingdom are some of the most energetically-powerful things on our planet. When you feel attracted to a crystal or rock in nature or a crystal shop, there is likely something in your own body and mind resonating with the molecular and energetic structure of that stone.
Minerals have a very stable repeating atomic pattern building in an identical sequence until the mineral forms. This stable structure also emits a very stable energetic frequency with the power to influence other energies around it. This is called entrainment. Therefore when you hold a crystal or see a stone you want to pick up, the chances are good that its energy “zapped” yours and you need what it has to offer.
Whether you think crystal healing is a hippie voodoo thing or not, the science and a whole lot of proof exists out there if you open your mind to it. If that’s still too much for you then perhaps just appreciating the colors, shapes, and beauty of each unique stone can help you feel even a moment of positive energy.
Every issue we feature a healing crystal to help you charge up your life and work. This issue is all about Energy so Clear Quartz is the perfect fit. Why? Because it’s a powerful stone with a lot of energetic benefits – plus it’s gorgeous!
Here are five amazing benefits of Clear Quartz.
- Quartz is all around us, from timepieces to lasers to jewelry. Since it conducts energy, it’s powerful to have around you whether you wear it on your body, carry it in your pocket, or set it near you at work or at home. Notice the clarity it brings when in meetings or at home.
- A great stone to use for meditation, quartz will help thoughts flow more peacefully and clearly. As a gentle yet powerful crystal, you can either hold it in your hand or use it as a focal point to view while you meditate.
- Quartz is made of silicon and oxygen, two of the most abundant elements on the planet. This means it can help you align with your goals so they fit into the grand scheme of the Universe. Bring a chunk of Clear Quartz with you everywhere you go to stay focused and clear.
- Quartz is great for bringing clear energy when you’re overwhelmed, confused, or need guidance. Hold it in your hand while you reflect and see what insights show up. It can help you focus a big vision too, so having it around when you brainstorm or daydream is a powerful way to feel the effects of Clear Quartz.
- Quartz will help amplify any other healing work you do and multiply the power of any other crystals you use. Wearing it during yoga, having it nearby during massage, and carrying it with you during any body/mind/spirit modalities can create a stronger experience.
Clear Quartz can be purchased from crystal and metaphysical shops and online. However, choosing a stone at a shop is much more fun and powerful because you can see, touch, and feel the “zap” of the crystals and experience how their energy impacts yours. Stock up because Clear Quartz and crystals of all types make great gifts that can be customized for the recipient’s healing and energy needs or simply given for their beauty.
