Description
This Brilliant Ultra Clear 48 Sided Himalayan Quartz Vogel Wand from our special collection is extraordinary in every way. This amazing professional lightworker's tool measures 5.2 inches long and weighs 8.1 oz. or 229 grams.
The female termination tip of this Vogel Phi crystal looks like a small pyramid, because this wand was cut to mimic the proportions of the Great Pyramid at Giza, which is thought to be a mammoth antenna and amplifier for Universal Life Force Energy, built with Phi ratio proportionality.
This 48 sided Vogel Wand is a product of the workshop of Master Crystal Cutter David Zhuang. David has cut Vogel wands for many years for Marcel Vogel's protege Rumi Da, and this year Satya Center will feature David's new designs, like this beautiful wand.
This highly reflective 48 Sided Vogel Wand was created according to the principles of sacred geometry, and the specifications set down in writing by crystal healer Marcel Vogel. The sacred geometry of the wand optimizes the crystal's natural ability to receive, store and transmit Universal Life Force Energy for purposes of healing and meditation.
This wand fits comfortably in the hand for use in meditation or energy treatments, and the finish is exquisite and silky.
Because David slightly elongated the female termination tip, I found that the wand fit perfectly in my hand when directing energy during crystal healing or Reiki sessions. Ideally, the palm chakra will interface with the female tip, and Universal Life Force Energy travels from the palm chakra into the female end of the wand, then spirals down the shaft.
For healers working in the shamanic healing tradition of Alberto Villoldo, water clear Vogel wands are considered a requirement for extraction work, which removes negative energies and entities from individuals' auras and bodies.
This 48 Sided Vogel Wand would be the ultimate shamanic tool for practitioners from such a school. Jane and I have had the 8 Munayki empowerments offered by the Villoldo School and we can assure you that this powerful Vogel Wand would be a powerful tool for shamanic practitioners in that lineage.
Properties of the 48 Sided Vogel Wand
The number 48 resonates with the energy of the Divine Trinity.
Numeralogically, forty eight equals 4 + 8 = 12, and thus 1+2=3. The underlying energy of the number 48 is symbolized by the number 3, the number of the Sacred Trinity.
Christians know this Trinity to be Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
The Trinity represents the Unity underlying the apparent multiplicity of existence.
The Trinity of light, energy and mass composes the totality of the known Universe.
Alchemists and Neoplatonic Western Mystery Schools in general worked with a Sacred Trinity known by their Greek names of nous, psyche and soma.

Nous represents divine intellect, or the consciousness which is the Source of all that exists in this Universe.
Psyche represents the soul, which is roughly analogous to the energy body of all living beings, including the etheric body and in more evolved beings, the astral body.
Soma represents the physical body, the material manifestation of Consciousness and Energy.
Wiccans know this Trinity to be composed of three Goddesses: Maiden, Mother and Crone.
Hindus know this Trinity to be Brahman the creator of the Universe, Vishnu, the sustainer of the Universe, and Shiva, the destroyer of the Universe.
Hindu metaphysics also honors a Trinity of major Goddesses: Sarasvati, Goddess of Wisdom, Lakshmi, Goddess of Prosperity, and Kali/Durga, Goddess of Judgment.
The Sacred Mantra AUM
In Hindu metaphysics, the creation occurred through the intonation of the sacred mantra AUM, composed of three vocalized syllables and surrounded by the silence that represents transcendent realities.
Brahman intoned this creation mantra, which brought consciousness, vibration and energy into being in the form of this Universe.
AUM is equivalent to the Logos or the WORD in Western mysticism.
In Modern Western Mystery School Traditions, the Archangel Gabriel and his legions of messenger angels are custodians of the sacred vibratory frequencies.

Gabriel and his heavenly hosts are masters of the mystic mantras that create the universal harmonics that underlie and structure the Macrocosmos.
Gabriel and his legions emanate the fundamental wave patterns manifest in the Universe generating mantra AUM.
Resonating in harmony with the sacred number three, the Triad, the 48 sided Vogel wand is tuned to the energy of synthesis, of creativity, of the Unity that is the Source of the Universe itself.
That harmonic resonance is in some ways, the ultimate healing energy, representing as it does, the primal Logos, the WORD, the Universal AUM.
Manipura Chakra
The 48 sided Vogel wand is ideal for all healing work that is designed to integrate the body, the emotions and the mind, and to increase the energy flowing through the human body and biofield, and for all healing work that involves energizing and activating the third, or Manipura chakra.
Working on the third chakra, which is the solar plexus chakra, associated in the Western mystery school tradition with the color yellow, the 48 sided Vogel wand strengthens the bearer's energy system and infuses the "hara" center and solar plexus with Universal Life Force Energy, also known as "chi" or "prana" in the Chinese and Hindu systems of energy medicine.
Energizing the third chakra is said to aid digestion, which is governed by the third chakra, and to activate the thymus, which regulates our immune system, thus promoting health and well-being. Energizing the third chakra is said to provide a feeling of comfort and optimism.
As students of Marcel Vogel well know, the American master of crystal healing focused his energy work on the thymus above all else. It is always beneficial to focus energy on the thymus when performing healing work with crystals.
Marcel Vogel: The Spiritual Science of Crystal Healing
This precision light instrument, with a unique cut based upon the specifications of legendary scientist and crystal healer Marcel Vogel, is a powerful subtle energy tool, and can be used for many kinds of healing work as well as for meditation.
Marcel Vogel worked for IBM for 27 years doing research and development. He worked on the team that developed the magnetic coating for IBM’s disc drive, which acts as the storage unit for a computer's memory, and he created the first liquid crystal displays, or LCDs.
During his experimental work with crystals, Vogel learned that by pointing a crystal at another person, the crystal would amplify the person’s thoughts and emotions. This often also led to putting the individual into an altered state of consciousness. The next step was for Vogel to utilize the quartz crystals for therapeutic purposes.
Marcel Vogel sought to use the power of science and of the lapidary arts to perfect crystalline forms of nature in order to maximize their potential for receiving, amplifying and transmitting Universal Life Force Energy charged with the intent to heal and with the force of love. Vogel cut his crystals to harmonize with the natural quartz structure to enhance the energetic properties of the wand for healing purposes, and the result is also aesthetically pleasing.
“The crystal is a neutral object whose inner structure exhibits a state of perfection and balance,” according to Vogel. “When it's cut to the proper form and when the human mind enters into relationship with its structural perfection, the crystal emits a vibration which extends and amplifies the powers of the human mind. Like a laser, it radiates energy in a coherent, highly concentrated form, and this energy may be transmitted into objects or people at will.”
To learn more about Marcel Vogel and his techniques for crystal healing, read the first several chapters of his never-before-published autobiography, edited by Curtis Lang, which is in our Vogel Archives.
You'll find Marcel Vogel's instructions for using crystals for healing and meditation in the book along with a lot of other very important information for all metaphysical rockhounds.

Energy and crystal healers prize Vogel cut quartz crystals to this day. The art of cutting crystals for use in healing requires extensive knowledge of the high art of jewel-cutting, an intuitive feel for the subtle energies involved, and an awareness of the needs of the energy healer who will be using the wand.
Faceted crystal wands claiming to be Vogel type crystals vary widely in quality, craftsmanship, and price.
The most important thing to remember in working with faceted crystals for healing is that the purpose of the faceting should be to amplify and transmit an increasingly coherent stream of energy to a subject.
Some hexagonal quartz crystal wands occur naturally with six more or less equilateral sides and more or less equal triangular termination facets. Energy healers discovered that these six sided wands amplifed the energy being transmitted by the wand when the termination facets on the female end created a more obtuse angle and when the termination facets on the male end created a more acute angle.
In a naturally formed quartz crystal of somewhat irregular shape and symmetry, the energy within the crystal tends to move through the crystal in a less directed way than the Vogel style cuts.
But when a crystal had a very definite symmetry, especially the hexagonal symmetry, then the energy gathers in the larger, receptive end of the crystal, and if directed by a knowledgeable human hand, travels in a series of tighter and tighter concentric circles around the interior of the crystal, and down into the tip of the male end of the crystal, where it would be emitted as a much more coherent stream of energy.
Energy healers also discovered that when the sharp male tip of the healing wand is congruent with the C-axis of the crystal, exactly centered within the circle formed when you look head-on at the male end of the crystal, this made the energetic flow stronger and more coherent.
Total symmetry created the crystal healer's version of the laser beam.
Marcel Vogel's healing wands were refined artistic versions of this well-known type of natural healing wands.
Good Vogel wands should have precisely equal facets, good clarity, preferably 90% or more, a well-defined C-axis that runs parallel to the shaft, and termination tips centered in the very middle of the shaft. The male and female terminations should be sharp, and the male should be more acute than the female.
Universal Life Force Energy (also called prana or chi) enters the female end of the wand, spirals down the body of the wand, and is amplifed every time it encounters a facet.
The super-charged energy stream coalesces at the male end of the wand, and is emitted as a highly coherent laser-like beam for use in meditation, vibrational healing and subtle communications.
Model created by Robert Wang, from his book The Qabalistic Tarot
In his early experiments with cutting healing crystals, which he conducted for many years, Marcel Vogel saw the Kabbalistic Tree of Life in a dream, which is shaped very much like four sided crystal wand with double termination tips. He created his first wands in that shape, and told the story of their origin in the crystal healing workshops he gave students around the world.
Over time, Marcel also designed 6, 8, 12 and 13 sided double terminated crystal healing wands and similar single terminated meditation crystals with a flat base. At first he and his family cut them and sold them to students of crystal healing. Later they involved other cutters as well.
Since Marcel’s death in 1991, crystal designers and cutters like Ray Pinto, David Zhuang, Kings Amao and Drew Tousley have created healing crystal wands of new types with incredibly complex designs based upon principles of sacred geometry, which are still true to the basic ideas of Marcel Vogel.
This wand comes with its own FREE handmade pouch constructed of 100% polyester fleece and micro bonded suede that has the look and feel of real sheepskin. They are designed for a snug fit and come with extra padding to protect delicate tips and points.
This crystal can be used for meditation, clearing, for hooks and cords work, for shamanic journeying or any other vibrational healing technique.
