The shapes and features of quartz crystals are varied and many. What do I mean by “configuration”? Crystal configurations are the different shapes of quartz crystal, named according to features present such as: Facets (placement, number of edges) such as: Transmitter, Dow, Channeler or Channeling, Isis, Eight Sided Face and Windows; Projections (crystals penetrating one another) such as: Inner Child, Bridge and Manifestation; Over-all shape such as: Elestial or Elestiated, Curved, Empathic and Laser Wand; →

The question of how quickly we heal from a particular ailment often comes up. There is usually a bigger picture reason and that is that most times ailments are present for the lessons they bring to us. This blog post addresses that “bigger picture”. Wow. Look at this crystal. This is an example of Self Healing which occurs during the growth of the crystal. Many times the earth movement causes crystals to break during their →

Crystal Healing: Helping Ourselves

Hey everyone! Another question has come up that I thought I would address as a blog post. Curt asks: “I find my crystal work is more effective in assisting others than it is when I assist myself. What do you advise?” That’s a really great question, and one I have often asked myself over the years. Why is it that most healing modalities seem more effective when we apply them to others than when we →

Orgonite: What is it?

The subject of this post is Orgone and Orgonite. Although I have never studied it, the subject of Orgonite has been in my working vocabulary for years. I’ve been sending crystals out all over the world for making devices such as Orgonite, Orgone Generators, Cloud Busters, Orgone Accumulators and Holy Hand-grenades (to name just a few). I’ve always wondered what they were (I knew in general, but in specific I had no idea). Recently, a →

Well, everyone, I am behind on blog posts. I was working on a post about Orgone and Orgonite, but that isn’t going to happen right now. If you have a television or access to news on the internet, you may have seen that Arkansas was hit pretty hard with the recent band of severe weather that came through. We were on high alert where I live and narrowly dodged the bullet. In Arkansas alone, right →

A Discussion about Crystal Spheres or “Crystal Balls”

A recent blog post about polished versus natural (unpolished) crystals sparked some questions and a brief discussion about spheres with my friend jack.   Q: Where is it that the energy moves through a sphere that would be cut from the middle of a larger point? Would it still have the original flow? A: Great question! There’s not really a “directional” energy flow in a sphere. The nature of a sphere (physically as well as →

Here’s another awesome question from my friend Karen, this time, about Enhydro crystals. She asks: Enhydros (sp?) Crystal? Have you come across any of these? Can you share more of what they do? I have learned they balance the Divine Masculine/Feminine. Is this correct? Thanks! Oh, I LOVE LOVE LOVE Enhydro crystals. For those that don’t know, they are crystals with water (fluid) inside them. The only way to know if you have an Enhydro →

Last time we talked about Keys and Imprints. There are other ways that triangles and squares may present on crystals. We’ll discuss those here, namely Growth Interference and Record Keepers. Indentations and markings similar to Imprints and Keys also occur but they fall into a different category. Some of these triangular and square-shaped impressions are caused by what is called Growth Interference. Growth Interference happens when another mineral grows during the development of the crystal and →

Keys and Crystal Imprints

YAY!  OK, so we had a question from my friend, Karen (the Feng Shui Lady) Adams. She writes: “Tell me about crystals with “Keys” such as squares and triangles. I have heard about gazing at them in meditation? Anything else you can share would be exciting!” Oh! this is a great question. A Key is created when a crystal pokes into another crystal during its growth. Sometimes Keys have a pointy bottom and sometimes a flat bottom… What →

Polished Crystal versus Natural (unpolished) Crystal: What’s the Difference?

I often get questions about polished crystal and how it differs from natural crystal. When I talk about polished crystal I am referring to crystal which has had its sides and or faces cut and polished with a machine, like the picture above.  Natural crystal is crystal which has not had its shape altered and remains the same as it was when it grew in the earth. The crystals above are natural (unpolished) crystals. Sometimes crystal is polished →
