Quartz Crystal PropertiesHow Crystals Grow
Generally, quartz crystals grow in a hexagonal (six sided) structure, with additional faces slopingtowards a point at one end. A crystal with these characteristics is itself also called a POINT. Pointsmay be totally clear and transparent, or they may contain streaks, lines, rainbows, water bubbles or other inclusions. They may also appear cloudy if they have grown in a place where it freezes in thewinter. Optical clarity usually has little to do with a crystal’s quality and its ability to amplify thesubtle energies.What Crystals DoQuartz crystals are a gift from the earth. They have the ability to amplify or strengthen the things inyou that are positive, and can help you put away things that cause you fear or anger. They canstrengthen your ability to be a loving person, and can enhance your abilities to enjoy life andaccomplish the things you want in life. They can amplify INTENTION, reduce stress, help withCENTERING (balancing or calming), strengthen HEALING abilities, and surround you withPROTECTION by amplifying white light. Any healthy quartz crystal point can strengthen thesethings and help produce personal growth by amplifying the subtle energies that flow inside you.

It facilitates bridging between the inner and outer worlds, between the self andothers, and the self and other worlds. It is beneficial when working with the aspects of spirituality,the advanced metaphysical areas, and attempting to share this knowledge with others.*"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 aconscious connection to the higher wisdom which is available from the higher self and/or to thewisdom of experience and enlightenment which is available from the "other side". Channelingcrystals can be used to bring forth light and love from the most truthful and knowledgeable portionsof the self.*"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 theenvironment."CONSUMMATION"Crystals in which one crystal is in the process of consuming (engulfing) another.

It allows one to see the inner workings of any situation and to understand thesuperficial and deeper meanings inherent in same.*"DOUBLE TERMINATED"Crystal that is naturally faceted on both ends (terminals). These crystals don’t grow on a matrix likeother crystals do. They form free-floating in clay pockets, that’s why they have two terminations.They 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 DrusyClusters consist of tiny crystal points in their very formation, and are encrusted on either sandstoneor quartz based matrixes. I like to think of drusy crystals for people who want to encourage ideas or thought forms ready to spring forth and grow."EIGHT-SIDED FACE QUARTZ CRYSTALS"According to Melody, "eight-faced crystals provide conservation of energy, of resources, of... Theystimulate the removal of obstacles in ones path and provide for further installation of energy in allendeavors.

In addition, they are said to bring order to ones life, to impart an energyof 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 etchedand/or layered crystal.

TheFaden 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. Itis a crystal of connection, stimulating and furthering connective forces between the self and thatwhich 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 facilitatecommunication with the spirits in nature; to open our hearts to the beauty and magic of nature; toencourage us to care for Mother Earth."FEMININE CRYSTALS"Crystals that are more cloudy (contain more Devic "fairy frost") and are sometimes opaque or milkyin appearance. Those who have difficulty relating to their feminine nature should use a femininecrystal in their daily routine. Whenever a person is suffering from an over-abundance of energeticforces or activities, using a feminine crystal can help to reduce the tension. Since we all possessmasculine and feminine traits, it is best to have both in a crystal collection. However, if we havetrouble balancing our two sides within, it might be helpful to own a crystal that allies with the sideof ourselves that we have the most trouble coming to terms with."GENERATOR POINTS" also called "MERLIN"Merlin crystals, also called Generator, recognized as a configuration of six crystal faces joiningtogether to form the terminated apex (a centrally located point).
