Crystal Quartz
Have you ever looked through a crystal ball? It is almost synonymous with "foreseeing the future."
For some reason, crystal ball portrays "mystic" to me -- a fortune teller sitting inside a tent. Her hands going round and round about the ball saying "I can tell what your future holds through my crystal ball."
The movie industry loves to use the crystal ball with lots of smoke to intensify the effect.
The crystal ball use to be made of crystal quartz, hence its name. Unfortunately, large flawless crystal quartz is very hard to come by. The crystal balls that we can buy today will usually be made of glass.
Crystal quartz is the most common material identified as a mystical substance in Australian Aboriginal mythology. Today, crystal quartz have also become popular in jewelry due to the popularity of legends about the powers of quartz crystals. Many people believe that wearing quartz crystals benefits a person's health and spiritual well being.
The traditional properties for crystal quartz are intensifying energy, spiritual development, healing, raising consciousness.
