Quartz Crystals - Their Identification and Meanings

An Updated Guide to the Uses and Meanings of Quartz Crystal Shapes, Inclusions, and Appearances

 

 

Quartz crystals are natural modulators, transmitters, and containers of the Universal Life Force.  As they are grown within the earth, they take unique shapes that affect their abilities to modify, store, and transmit the Life Force. We offer here a listing of the quartz shapes, inclusions, and crystal arrangements, and their generally accepted definitions and metaphysical properties.

However, this is a never-ending work in progress. The earth is constantly offering new treasures. In addition there are many authors and writers that offer new insights into the energy of different quartz crystals. If you see errors or omissions drop us a note. Our intent is to provide the most complete and accurate listing possible on the web. This listing is in two parts.

The Listing of Quartz Crystal Types and Descriptions.

On this page is a long list of the types of quartz crystals and a description of them. Each of them is linked to a second page that provides a photograph (if we have one) and the metaphysical properties of the crystal.

Metaphysical Properties of Quartz Crystals.

 

The metaphysical properties of the shapes are those based on the shape of the crystals, their relationships to other crystals, the properties of their inclusions, or the commonly accepted uses by crystal healers and practitioners. Be aware however, that the metaphysical properties are not necessarily consistent with every book or article you might read. Keep an open mind. 

There are many viewpoints in the world, and you must sift through them to find your truth. What is right for one person, is not necessarily what is best for another. Also, be aware that a crystal formation may well be good for something for most people, but others may have discovered new energies and uses.

For example, cabinetmaker may well see a screwdriver as a tool used to install and remove screws. He or she is right. However, a painter may see it as an excellent paint can opener. Both are right. The list is a starting point on your voyage of discovery.  

 

The Universal Life Force 

However, regardless of the specific uses that have been discovered for the various types of crystals the basic fact is that the Universal Life Force connects all elements of the spiritual and physical universe in which we live.  Quartz crystals can help us focus and amplify the Universal Life Force to aid and augment our own power. 

The right crystal aligned with the right mind can produce power by focusing and amplifying the Life Force that animates the universe.

 Whether you call it the Divine will, the hand of god, Qui, Ki, or any of a hundred other names from a hundred other cultures or religions, the Universal Life Force is the power behind the Universe.  Quartz crystals manifest that Force, can transmit it, and can shape the force as it shapes them. Their power in the affairs of humans is a quite extraordinary one - and a gift of nature.

7-3 Channeling	See Channeling.
7-3-7-3-7-3	See Dow.
A
Abundance	Single crystal with at least 9 smaller ones arranged vertically around its base.  The smaller crystals are usually less than 10 percent of the size of the larger crystal.
Activation (left brain)	Activation (left brain) crystal has an inclined main facet that leans to the left.  Often confused with a Time Link, but a Time Link is a 7th facet.
Activation (right brain)	Activation (left brain) crystal has an inclined main facet that leans to the right.  Often confused with a Time Link, but a Time Link is a 7th facet.
Activator	See Time Line to the Past or Future.
Alien	See Extra Termination.
Alkali Etchings	See Etched
Amphibole Angel Quartz	Reported to contain Limonite, Kaolinite and Hematite. A milky quartz from Brazil with red inclusions.
Ancestral Time Line	See Time Line to the Past.
Angel	Angel Crystals have a silvery white inclusions that look like angel wings.
Angel Aura	See Opal Aura
Aperture	See Picture Window
Aqua Aura	Quartz infused with a Gold based coating.
Artemis crystal	See Candle Crystal.
Arkimer Diamond	A diamond shape formation similar to the Herkimer Diamond but mined in Arkansas It is a stout, short DT with a hardness of 7.
Atlantian Temple	See Cathedral.
Atlantian Love Star	A carved crystal that has six long tapering sides topped with six identical facets.  Not a natural formation.
Aurora Crystal	A quartz crystal or cluster that has been enhanced with a coating of titanium.
B
Barnacle	Barnacles are crystals covered to some degree with smaller crystals.
Beauty Way	See Life Path.
Bent	A Bent Crystal was broken in the past, then re grown, but the new growth is at an angle to old part, making the crystal bent.
Beta Quartz	Beta Quartz does not exist at a temperate below 573 degrees C.  Some  quartz crystals are pseudo morphs of Beta Quartz crystals.  They are composed of hexagonal dipyramids, which are a pair of opposing six sided pyramids, and the crystals lack prism faces. Technically these crystals are Quartz after Beta Quartz.
Black Shale Phantom	See Shale Phantom.
Black Tourmaline Quartz	Quartz with inclusions of black tourmaline.
Blue Tourmaline Quartz	Quartz with inclusions of blue tourmaline.
Blue Phantom	Phantoms that appear gray or blue caused by shale inclusions.  These are from Arkansas and are natural. See Shale Phantom.
Bridge	A smaller crystal growing out of another at nearly a right angle with the base of the smaller crystal inside the larger and most of the smaller outside of the larger. If the smaller crystal extends from the larger in both directions, and part of it is completely enclosed within the larger it is not a bridge, it is a Penetrator.  If no section of the smaller one is completely contained within the larger, and both ends protrude, then it is a Cross Crystal. If no part of the smaller crystal is completely enclosed by the larger and only one section extends from the larger crystal, then it is likely a damaged cross unless a clear termination is apparent.
Buddha	A crystal with a phantom that looks like a sitting Buddha.
Burr	A burr is a completely three dimensional crystal cluster with no base.

The sides of a Candle Quartz often look and feel like a pineapple.    If the smaller ones are sharply defined the formation is called an Abundance Crystal.
Candle Crystal	Candle Crystal – This is a crystal with a ratio of 6 to 1 or greater length to width. It is also know as an Artemis crystal.

Castle	A castle is a form of twin with many points and extra facets on the tip. Many of the faces will reflect light at the same angle, giving the appearance of a castle. It is a self-healed crystal.  The crystal broke from its matrix or another crystal and continued to grow and heal the rough base or side.  It is similar to a Cathedral but lacks the larger center termination of a Cathedral formation.
