Crystal Formation Descriptions
"BARNACLE"
Crystals covered or partially covered with smaller crystals. The larger crystal is
the "Old Soul" and contains the wisdom and trust which attracts the smaller
crystals. Used in meditation to provide insights to family and/or community
problems. Also excellent for those employed in "service organizations" to help
stimulate a group cohesiveness and willingness to work together.
"CHANNELING"
Recognized by a large seven sided face located in the center front position of
the terminated end of the crystal; a triangular face is located on the opposite
(back) side of the crystal. It provides for a conscious connection to the higher
wisdom which is available from the higher self and/or to the wisdom of
experience and enlightenment which is available from the "other side".
Channeling crystals can be used to bring forth light and love from the most
truthful and knowledgeable portions of the self.
"CHLORITE"
Chlorite is one of the most favorable healing stones. Worn, carried or placed
in ones environment, the properties of chlorite are overwhelmingly positive. It
brings the energy to enhance cooperation and stimulates ones personal
affinity with "All". It is a purifier and is quite useful for cleansing the aura, the
chakras, and the energy meridians.
"CLUSTERS"
Crystals which have grown together, free-standing or on a sandstone base. To
foster protection, cooperation, purification, harmony, friendship and intimacy;
to break up negative energy in the environment.
"CURVED"
Crystals which have a curved shape or which the sides are curved. Produced
during the developmental stages, this is a rare occurrence. They emanate a
gentle yet powerful energy and can be used to cleanse the aura, promote
flexibility in ones attitude, and provide strength in decisions, among other
things.
"DOUBLE TERMINATED"
Crystal that is naturally faceted on both ends (terminals). To promote psychic
ability and dream recall; to balance the body, mind and spirit.
"DRUSY (pronounced 'DREW-zee') "
Very small points which are described as "a myriad of very closely set tiny
crystals". The Drusy Clusters consist of tiny crystal points in their very
formation, and are encrusted on either sandstone or quartz based matrix's. We
like to think of drusy crystals for people who want to encourage ideas or
thought forms ready to spring forth and grow.
"EIGHT-FACED QUARTZ CRYSTALS"
Eight-faced crystals provide conservation of energy, of resources. They
stimulate the removal of obstacles in ones path and provide for further
installation of energy in all endeavors. They are said to be of other-worldly
origination and to bring the capacity for actualization on all levels. In addition,
they are said to bring order to ones life, to impart an energy of manifestation
and to produce a melding of the spiritual and the angelic realms.
"ELESTIAL"
The Elestial Crystal is recognized by natural terminations over the body and
face of an etched and/or layered crystal. Used to assist one in overcoming
emotional burdens, to bring the heart and intellect into synchronicity, and to
help one look within and to find the love that has always been there.
"EMPATHIC"
Empathic crystals are ones which are chipped or damaged in some way.
They promote understanding, compassion, kindness and empathy. They open
and heal the hearts of those who have closed them while also protecting the
open-hearted from too much pain.
"EXTRA-TERRESTRIAL CRYSTAL"
A crystal with a single termination at one end and multiple terminations at the
other end. It is believed this crystal will help channel space beings, celestial
beings and guardian angels.
"FADEN" (pronounced "fah-den")
A crystal in which the inclusion of one or more white thread-like fibrous
formations occurs. The Faden is visible within the quartz structure because it is
surrounded by either a fluid filled or gaseous chamber. The fiber is located
usually at or in proximity to the center of the crystal, perpendicular to the
termination of the crystal and may be linear and undeviating or curved/bent. Is
is a crystal of connection, stimulating and furthering connective forces between
the self and that which is chosen as the recipient. It is also a stone for astral
travel.
"FAIRY FROST"
Clear crystal with fractures and inclusions within (sometimes called "Devic").
To facilitate communication with the spirits in nature; to open our hearts to the
beauty and magic of nature; to encourage us to care for Mother Earth.
"GENERATOR POINTS" also called "MERLIN"
Excellent quality crystal points with a centrally located point (the facets on the
point or tip are equidistant from one another, desirable for generators or wand
making). They foster wisdom, focus, magical power and the wisdom to use
the crystal in a proper manner.
"GOLDEN HEALER"
A quartz crystal which is partially or totally covered with a transparent
golden-yellow mineral. This has been used to assist one in attaining and
maintaining contact with the spiritual worlds and to incite healing on all levels.
It is an excellent stone for use in all healing situations and promotes the
recognition of methods and techniques which will further recovery from all
disorders.
"IMPRINTS"
Imprints left on the surfaces or facets of a crystal, where they grew in close
proximity to another crystal. The imprints show how something is affected by
outside influences, thereby changing the shape or form of the original structure,
but the original structure adapts to its environment to allow for growth and
change, while still maintaining its basic inherent truth and beauty.
"INCLUDED or INCLUSIONS"
When one is attracted to and uses included quartz, the quartz inclusion will
work with the person to provide the further nourishment and qualities required.
Usually the chlorite and hematite included quartz provide the most powerful
healing-type of included quartz. CHLORITE INCLUDED: Chlorite is one of the
most favorable healing stones. Worn, carried, placed within ones
environment, or used as an elixir, the properties of chlorite are overwhelmingly
positive. It attacks anger, hostility, and exasperation, and dissipates the
dissenting energy.
MANGANESE INCLUDED: The color of manganese inclusions range from
metallic grey to grey-black to black. It is a mineral of bonding, bringing others
closer and activating the energies of cooperation in group efforts. It furthers a
firm impenetrable resolve, such that which one initiates, one completes.
"ISIS FACE"
A five sided facet to put you in touch with and help you strongly amplify your
feminine energy. They put you in touch with the power of the Goddess. This is
a helpful crystal for both men and women.
"JAPAN LAW TWIN"
Has been used to stimulate the synthesis of the perfection of the subtle bodies
to the state of the physical body. Also used to dissipate and to transmute
deviations, working out problems on both the physical and subtle levels.
Excellent for clearing the aura and for aligning the auric body with the physical
structure. Stabilizes emotions, to dispel anger, and to encourage one to
"expect a miracle" among other qualities.
"KEY"
Recognized by a three or six-sided indented shape located on the crystal. The
indent becomes narrower as it goes within the crystal, and ends within the
crystal, usually in an apex termination. It is used to unlock the "doors" to
healing concepts and to those aspects of the self which tend to be illusive. It
further helps to answer questions like - why can't I?
"LASER WAND"
A long slender crystal with small faces comprising the termination. The crystal
is wider at the base than at the tip (tapers inversely), and the angles of the
sides of the crystal are curved, rather than straight, in many instances. These
crystals have an intimate relationship with both inner and outer space.
"MANIFESTATION"
The Manifestation crystal is recognized by a small crystal totally enclosed
within a larger crystal, and they are very rare. The use of the manifestation
crystal requires the inner knowledge that one is a clear and perfect channel,
that a pure white light provides the guiding way, and that the purity of the Divine
is within the inner self. They can also be used to facilitate artistic creativity,
creative thinking, agricultural pursuits, and to increase or decrease any aspect
of ones life.
"PHANTOM CRYSTAL"
The Phantom crystal is comprised of a white or colored material and may be
partial or complete. The phantoms within a crystal provide an indication of the
experiences and the transformations the crystal has undergone in its evolution.
The crystal represents the many phases and the many types of life which may
be experienced during ones lifetime. It is one of the Earth stones to be used
for redemption and cleansing of the earth. The energy of the phantom works to
bring together the participants of humanity to save the planet.
"POCKET"
The Pocket quartz formation can be recognized by the formation of pockets in
large quartz structures. Used to assist one in memory stimulation and to
increase ones memory capacity.
"PYRAMID"
Pyramids focus and amplify energy through their shape and molecular
structure of the crystal from which they are made. The pyramid focuses energy
in a tight beam through the apex and has been used to both charge and
preserve objects. The energy taken on by the pyramid depends upon what
type of crystal it is formed from.
"RAINBOW"
Crystal which has rainbows inside when viewed in bright light. Promotes hope,
happiness and optimism and awakens us to the beauty in Nature.
"RECORD-KEEPER"
Crystals which have small pyramid-shaped marking on one or more facets
which designated them as record-keepers or recorders. They are commonly
thought of as "crystal memory banks" which contain ancient knowledge
awaiting for just the right person who has the ability to decipher it's hidden
power.
"RUTILATED CRYSTAL"
Rutile crystallizes in the form of prismatic crystals, or in this case, as
needle-like crystals. It has been known to represent both the lovely hair of
Venus and the "sweet" tipped arrows of love. It has been likened to the
appearance of wheat straw and angel hair. The ethereal aspects of rutile bring
strength with love, ease in transition, growth in all avenues of ones
development, and calm, reason and order. Rutile is used for healing and
balancing the aura via repelling negative energy. It affects the physical, etheric
and astral bodies. It assists one in getting to the root of a problem and hence,
provides for access to the reason for a dis-ease, so that one can remedy the
situation. It is a stone for stabilizing relationships, marriages, mental
processes, and emotional and physical imbalances.
"SELF-HEALED"
Crystals which have "sealed" over their broken end with small triangular
shaped facets, which also smoothes the broken edge (happens millenniums
ago when the crystal breaks in it's formation). Because these crystals have
healed themselves, we view them as particularly powerful healing stones.
"SOUL-MATE or TWIN"
Two crystals grown together (attached side to side) and of a similar size. To
promote loving contact, tender communication and togetherness; to help find
our soul-mate on a personal level; to teach us our souls are joined to all beings
on a spiritual level.
"SPIRAL"
The spiral quartz crystal can be recognized by the twisted configuration
throughout the body of the formation. It has been used to bring the universal
spiral of energy to the physical body and to assist one in maintaining
connection with the physical plane during meditation. It inspires the energy of
love, such that all chakras are activated into a spontaneous flowing movement,
providing for a balance of the male and female energies.
"TABULAR or TABBY"
A crystal with a flattened shape. To enhance communication, smooth energy
flow and integration of ideas and balance; to facilitate understanding and
dialogue between people; to help us communicate with nature.
"TRANSMITTER"
Transmitters are recognized by a configuration of two symmetrical
seven-sided faces with a perfect triangular face located between them.
Through the use of these crystals, one can connect to the highest wisdom and
can receive specific information to specific circumstances, OR can receive the
universal truth necessary for ones growth to enlightenment.
"WINDOW CRYSTALS"
A crystal with an extra diamond shaped facet. To let us see the Spirit realms,
or to lead us within to see our own souls.
"BARNACLE"
Crystals covered or partially covered with smaller crystals. The larger crystal is
the "Old Soul" and contains the wisdom and trust which attracts the smaller
crystals. Used in meditation to provide insights to family and/or community
problems. Also excellent for those employed in "service organizations" to help
stimulate a group cohesiveness and willingness to work together.
"CHANNELING"
Recognized by a large seven sided face located in the center front position of
the terminated end of the crystal; a triangular face is located on the opposite
(back) side of the crystal. It provides for a conscious connection to the higher

experience and enlightenment which is available from the "other side".
