CRYSTAL QUICK REFERENCE

A note on Terminology

The terms masculine and feminine used on this page do not refer to gender but rather to how the energy moves.

The term face refers to the most prominent facet of a crystal - what is usually regarded as the 'front' of the crystal.

This reference applies to Quartz, Rose Quartz, Smokey Quartz, Amethyst, and Citrine.

Transmitters

TRANSMITTER

Masculine

These crystals are called transmitters because that that's literally what the do - they transmit energy. The face of a transmitter is a triangle and it is flanked on both sides by 7 - sided facets.

These crystals are great for telepathy and other projects where energy needs to be sent out.


Generators

GENERATOR

Masculine

These crystals are like 'heavy duty' transmitters - they move and stimulate energy, especially the point. They are identified by their roundness.

These crystals are especially helpful in healing, where the removal of blocks and movement of energy are needed.



Wands

WAND

Masculine

These long, slender, generally 'pretty' crystals are used for directing energy - especially in healing. They move the energy in a very gentle manner. To tell the difference between a wand and a laser: wands usually are a constant width from end to end where lasers tend to taper from bottom to point.

Lasers

LASER

Masculine


These tapering; usually very beat up, often charismatic crystals are definitely not for beginners. They are very strong and are sometimes used in etheric surgery. They 'slice' through congested energy very easily. These are very active crystals - making them unusable for meditation.


Channelers

CHANNELERS

Feminine

These crystals are called channelers not because they channel 'spirits' or 'personas' from 'the other side' but because they receive energy. The face of a channeler is recognized by the 7-sided face and a triangle behind it.

These crystals are great for meditation and projects where energy needs to be picked up, rather than sent out.



Dow

Dow crystals are both transmitters and channelers. They are recognized by having a facet pattern of 7,3,7,3 all the way around the crystal. These can be used for any project that either a transmitter or a channeler would be used for.

It is also possible for a crystal to be both a transmitter and a channeler, but not a Dow.

Isis Points

ISIS POINT

Feminine

These crystals are named after the Goddess Isis - where, in her story she eventually heals herself and her husband after the brutal assault by Set. These crystals aid in the healing of the 'wounded feminine' and help one to become whole again.

Unlike the other crystals, the Isis face does not have to be the main facet. It can be found on any facet of the crystal. Also, the more balanced the sides of the face, the more balance it can bring to you. These are excellent for meditation.

Isis points can appear in combination with other types of faces - generator, timelink, etc.

Tabular

TABBY

Feminine


These flat crystals are the epitome of feminine energy. They are usually very calming and relaxing. They make excellent meditation crystals.

Window

WINDOW



These crystals are called windows because of the obvious diamond shaped face. These crystals are fairly difficult to come by and they always facilitate introspection - hence also being called 'windows of the soul'.

Timelinks

These are very personalized crystals - they read the owner's energy and work with that.

Past

TIMELINK -PAST


These are small facets on a crystal that are oriented toward the left. They help one look back in to the past - perhaps even into past lives in meditation. They can also help one discover is there is any past situation holding them back.



Future

TIMELINK - FUTURE

These crystals read the energy of the present and present a possible future if nothing changes. The future being what it is, it is highly changeable.

RecordKeepers

RECORD KEEPER
These crystals are identified by the perfect triangles that are seemingly etched on the surface of a facet. Like the Isis points, they can appear on any type of crystal.

This crystals aren't really for personal growth - they contain that which is of use to the whole of humanity to evolve - be it wisdom or cosmic information. Quite literally, these crystals hold pieces of Truth for all mankind, for Soul, for Purpose.

These crystals usually have to be worked with constantly for some time before it will 'speak' - it constantly checks for 'pure' intent. Also because of this 'checking', not everyone can see the triangles.

'Children'

CHILDREN

These crystals are literally 'teaching' the smaller ones - imparting their knowledge and wisdom.

These are good for working on inner child issues, as well as relationships - such as one between a parent and child. They are also good for differentiating between knowledge and wisdom - for there is a difference.

Phantoms

PHANTOMS


These crystals look as if there are other crystals inside them. They are highly personal crystals - the phantom pyramids representing the inner landscape, making these crystals very personal growth tools. As a result, it isn't good to have many people come in contact with them.
