The Snowflake and our Crown Chakra Sahasrara

The beauty of the snow flake, each one completely different from the other.  Like us, we are each different from one another and create the crystalline structure, the vibration of pure love and gratitude – Crystal Clear Energy.

I have often thought that Quartz is actually fossilized water.  When we think that our own bodies are made up of roughly 70% water, we can see why we resonate so vibrantly with quartz.  Our own thoughts can create a positive or negative ripple throughout our bodies by resonating the liquid crystals within us as proven by Dr. Masaru Emoto, and as discussed by Robert Simmons in their research and books.

Goddess Shakti, also known as our Kundalini Energy, has finally come to Shiva, her eternal dance partner; their dance floor is the entire Universe.  This awakening in the Crown Chakra is remarkable when all 6 Chakras below are in balance. Enlightenment can be experienced in this place.  Pure bliss, love and joy surround every part of you.

This Chakra represents thought, consciousness, knowing, transcendence and meditation.  Our complete understanding of the entire universe around us and our place within it is here in the Crown Chakra.  The Pituitary Gland known as the “Master Gland” is linked with the Crown Chakra and regulates all the other Endocrine Glands maintaining homeostasis throughout your entire body.

The element ‘Thought’ is related with the Crown Chakra.  In the past blogs and newsletters I have indicated the speed of the elements associated with each chakra.  The speed of thought cannot be measured, unlike the Third Eye’s ‘Light Element’ of almost 300,000 km per second.  Our thoughts enable us to connect with the Divine Intelligence, Source, Spirit or God.  When we pray or meditate using our Crown Chakra we become the source of manifestation and creation. In other words, we realize that the Divine Intelligence, Source, Spirit and God is within each one of us, making us “The Creator”.  We leave behind the cognitive mind and open ourselves to the transcendent mindfulness of our soul.
I also believe that particular crystals and minerals can help with our transcendent meditation of the Crown Chakra – our expansion into the Universe.  The stones that I would suggest are: Amethyst and Clear Quartz (Crystal).  Quartz has always been a long time favourite. It comes to us in such variety, shape and sizes.

Quartz activates our Crown and Soul Star Chakras.  This stone vibrates at a remarkably stable and high frequency making it ideal for use in time measurement and in elevating our spiritual consciousness to new levels, allowing us to cross time, space and dimensions.
Quartz Vibrates at 32,768 Hz.  Quartz has been used in our modern age to measure time by using the piezoelectric effect of pinging the crystal tuning fork within all digital devices like watches and cell phones.  This constant frequency also enhances the pineal and pituitary glands bringing homeostasis to our entire endocrine system and wellbeing to our body.  When our bodies are in balance we are able to elevate to new levels on all planes of existence.
Quartz is known as a remarkable healing stone; brain function, thoughts, meditation, and communication all benefit the carrier.  Quartz works well with most other crystals by enhancing their powers. Double terminated quartz are said to be the most powerful in sending, receiving, storing, activating and amplifying energies, but all quartz crystals are fully capable of this power.

The Frequency of Quartz

How important is quartz to our survival?  Each day we rely on this abundant crystal found around the world in more ways than one.

For those that know a lot about this powerful crystal, here is a refresher, for those that know a little, enjoy the information and be amazed at this beautiful semi-precious gemstone and what some would say has “miraculous abilities”.

Before we begin, I think I need to explain the Piezoelectric Effect.  The Piezoelectric Effect means that some crystals generate a current as they are deformed.  Quartz is one of them.  Striking quartz will cause it to deform and produce a current of electricity.  The same applies when you apply voltage to a quartz crystal, it will deform, we call this the Reverse Piezoelectric Effect.

Now that we understand the Piezoelectric Effect we can dive deeper into the importance of this crystal and how it has a firm grip in our society, and defines who we are.

Now you might be thinking about tuning your piano with this little guy, similar, but this one oscillates at a much higher frequency than the tuning forks that are tuned to the 7 notes of the western music scale.  Quartz Tuning Forks like this little one, oscillates or vibrates at 32,768 Hz precisely.  Your digital watch’s circuitry measures  the oscillations or vibrations of the tuning fork to maintain time and to ensure that your time piece does not run slow or run fast over longer periods of time.

Quartz Tuning Fork from within your watch.

Quartz is used because it is very stable, both physically and mechanically, continuing to work in all types of extreme conditions found on earth.  We can find these little tuning forks in every digital watch, cell phone, GPS units or anything else that measures time digitally.

These devices help wake us up in the morning by signalling an alarm, let us know of our daily appointments, prevent our cakes from being burnt in the oven, ensure that we get to our job interviews, essentially molding us into who we are.  Can you imagine if you were late for something because your time piece ran slower than everyone else’s.  Could we find our friends at prearranged meeting times and locations? I think not.  Our lives would be brought back 100 years, searching for the closest sundial to coordinate your day properly.  All kidding aside, our lives today would be totally different without the wonders of Quartz and the Piezoelectric Effect.

So why are we attracted to quartz?  Not only is it the largest single mineral found on earth, it comes in a large assortment of types; Amethyst, Citrine, Rose and Smoky Quartz, Clear Quartz sometimes called rock crystal, these are just to name a few.  Here are a couple of photos of various Quartz Stone Pendants

These different quartz are connected to our various chakras throughout our body.  Clear Quartz can represent our Crown Chakra or the Soul Star Chakra (a universal chakra above our heads).  Clear quartz assists us to decipher the information that is being presented to us, the Universe is filled with coded messages that we have difficulty understanding if we have not prepared our body, mind and spirits to do so.   Our daily meditation, or yoga practice can also bring awareness to this vast wealth of information available to us.

Here is a beautiful piece of art that I make to help balance a room or environment to facilitate an opening of your Crown Chakra bringing awareness to the Soul Star Chakra and the symphony of intelligence around us.

Whether you are wearing clear, rose, smoky, rutilated, tourmalated, or any other piece of quartz in its wonderful abundance of colours, you are sure to feel connected, you will discover your place in the universe, a sense of belonging and knowing that you are part of the beautiful web of the world we live in.  This gemstone is more than just semi-precious, it is absolutely precious to all life on earth in one way or another, may it bring you Peace, Joy, Happiness and not to forget, Timeliness.
