Zodiac Affinity
Quartz has a special affinity with Sagittarius. Helps to tune in to your own energy and filter out distractions so it is a good stone for almost any profession. Its Energy is Projective and Receptive, its Planets are the Sun and Moon, and its Elements are Fire and Water.
Folklore
The term suisho is used in China to designate Clear Quartz. It reflects the ancient idea that Quartz was ice frozen so long it could not be liquified. In Japan it is considered to be the frozen breath of the White Dragon. The Greeks thought it was deeply frozen ice (krystallos) that couldn't be thawed.
Quartz is also called 'rock crystal' in many cultures, including the US. It has been believed to have powers to drive away demons and disease and has been used as a strength and energy supplier. Clear Quartz spheres have also been used for centuries in predicting the future.
Crystal System
Clear Quartz is formed in passages or hydrothermally in druses or clefts from a pure, silicic acid solution that contains no foreign substances. It has a trigonal crystal system and is in the mineral class of oxides.
Free-growing crystals can vary from long and slender prisms to crusts or 'points'. There are usually six terminal faces that develop larger and smaller faces horizontally.
Quartz can occur almost anywhere. Veins formed in high temperatures are usually coarsely crystalized. When formed in low temperature veins, in geodes and sedimentary rocks, we enjoy the finer grained varieties. Clear quartz veins have been guides to miners to find gold in many regions for many years. |
