Crackle Quartz

Mental Clarity
Crackle quartz is a crystalline quartz that has been intentionally fractured by people. They usually heat rock crystal or slightly translucent quartz to a high temperature, then suddenly quench it in cold water. The shock of sudden cooling causes a network of tiny fractures to propagate through the quartz.
The result is a transparent colored stone that sparkles when it is moved under bright light. The sparkles are produced as light enters the stone, strikes an internal fracture surface, and reflects back to the eye of the observer.
Crackle quartz retains the healing qualities of quartz as well as the chakra properties that have been introduced by the enhanced color.
Root Chakra (Red energy - Ruby Crackle Quartz): An energizing color used as a general tonic and to enhance courage, self-confidence, positive love and will power. Use red when you are striving for balance and to harmonize all chakras.
Solar Plexus Chakra (Yellow energy - Lemon Crackle Quartz): Associated with joy and warmth, this chakra influences ones levels of self-esteem and self-recognition. It controls activity and allows clarity of thought. Balancing this chakra facilitates wise decision making and will assist in determining which paths to follow.
Throat Chakra (Blue energy - Aqua & Azure Crackle Quartz): The focus of communication and action. Imbalance in the Throat Chakra may manifest as shyness and an inability to make yourself heard, or as boisterousness and a tendency to talk when you should listen. Balance here allows easy communication and is helpful for public speaking.
Crown Chakra (White energy - White Crackle Quartz): Controls wisdom and understanding. Unhappiness, a sense of indecision and poor choices are all signs of an unbalanced Crown Chakra. Meditate to develop this chakra and you will find wisdom and deepen your connection with the Divine and with the Universe.
