Description
This Lithium Phantom Wand with Bridge Crystal comes from Piatã, Bahia in Brazil, weighs 181 grams, or 6.4 ounces and is 3.25 inches in length.
This is an especially heavy variety of Lithium Quartz. This unique Lithium Point has beautiful energy and tremendous power, which will soothe you & quiet the mind.
This Lithium point displays a prominent keystone crystal protruding from the shaft, at the female termination tip.
This is a good piece to use in energy treatments or to place on your altar. It is a perfect size to place in your pocket, to sleep with at night either in your left hand or under your pillow or to place in a medicine bag. Sleeping with Lithium will certainly assist you in achieving a more restful sleep!
Mineralogical and Metaphysical Properties of Phantoms and Bridge Crystals
Bridge crystals are crystals which partially penetrate and partially extrude from, larger crystal formations. Such crystals help the individual bridge the gap between self and others, reducing the illusion of separation.
In addition bridge crystals help the individual traverse the abyss between the material and spiritual worlds, and establish communication with Beings of Light inhabiting higher worlds, and with extraterrestrial intelligences of all kinds.
This phantom was created when a faceted tip formed at one point in the crystal's growth, but the crystal's growth was interrupted for some reason, and then the quartz crystal resumed its crystallization, eventually enclosing the phantom crystal within itself, creating a residual outline of the previous point completely enclosed within the enlarged crystal formation.
The phantom typically displays one or more translucent thin, cloud-like layers of mineral deposits resembling small points. Each layer of cloudy inclusion contains a revealing snapshot of the crystal's termination faces in the remote past.
Each phantom marking represents a different stage in the crystal's growth -- and each stage can last for hundreds of thousands of years! Each phantom crystal reveals its own evolutionary pattern -- it is as though we can see the record of the transmigrations of the crystal's soul.
It should come as no surprise that phantom crystals help us to unearth our own histories, and to come to terms with unresolved issues from our past. Phantoms help us to see our own messy histories and our painful karmic issues as part of a beautiful spiritual evolution. In this way, they help to restore a sense of inner balance, unity and an aura of magic where there had been pain and struggle.
How do phantom crystals form within the Earth? One possibility is that a pocket of mineral rich liquid inside the earth surrounding the crystal dried out, stopping the crystal's growth. When a crystal's growth is interrupted for some reason, a thin dusting of such minerals as pyrite, hematite, chlorite or galena can gather on the termination faces.
Later, if the pocket is resaturated, another stage of crystal growth can occur.
If the crystal's growth then resumes, over long cycles of geologic time, the dusting of alien minerals covering the crystal's original termination faces is incorporated into a much larger quartz crystal.
This long growth process creates a crystal exhibiting the classic phantom crystal point which can be seen within the larger crystal. Sometimes one can see two or three phantom points within a given crystal wand, and in such cases, the growth process was undoubtedly stopped and started several times over unthinkably long periods of geological time.
The final result is the formation of a phantom crystal much larger than the original crystal structure at the point of growth interruption.
Mineralogical and Metaphysical Properties of Lithium Quartz
Our Lithium Quartz Crystal Points are from the township of Piatã in Bahia, Brazil. To date, this region of Brazil is the only place on Earth where this beautiful Lithium Quartz is found, and annual production of this mineral is small. Most Lithium Quartz specimens found are single points, and while clusters do exist, they are quite rare (and very expensive).
Lithium Quartz Crystal is pure clear quartz with inclusions of magenta-colored, lavender or pinkish grey mineral inclusions containing Lithium.
It is the presence of the Lithium that makes this Quartz Crystal so special. The Lithium contained in this Quartz is the same mineral used in antidepressant medication, but in its pure form as it comes out of the Earth. When combined with Clear Quartz, the natural antidepressant properties of Lithium are amplified.
Lithium Quartz brings emotional peace, stress release, and relaxation. A powerful, yet gentle healer, Lithium Quartz balances the brain and the emotions. Lithium Quartz uplifts the mental and emotional bodies, and gently moves repressed anger and grief to the surface for healing. Lithium Quartz Crystal can also heal emotional issues from past lives.
Lithium Quartz can also activate and cleanse all of the Chakras. In Reiki and crystal healing sessions with our clients, and in self-treatment, we have found Lithium Quartz to induce deep relaxation in the most recalcitrant subjects, and to calm and soothe physical, emotional and mental turbulence. For this reason, Lithium Quartz is also a desirable meditational aid.
We also find that just having lithium quartz around enhances a feeling of centered calm in any environment.
We often use crystals for psychic protection, purification and to clarify things of a spiritual nature. See our article on Psychic Self Defense for more information along these lines with many suggestions on how to protect yourself from unwanted energies.
You can read more about crystals in our article "Using Quartz Crystals in Digital Technology, Healing and Meditation"or you can read about The Crystal Wisdom of Marcel Vogel and crystal healing in our Vogel Archives along with edited chapters of his unpublished book, given to Satya Center from Marcel Vogel's family.
This crystal has been cleaned and charged with Universal Life Force Energy, and given an energetic attunement using Reiki, a Japanese technique of energy healing so it will continue to channel and transmit Universal Life Force Energy direct from the Source of Creation. It is ready for you to program according to your own needs and desires.
