The term "Quartz" derives from the Greek word for 'ice' and some ancient folklore believed that Clear Quartz was water that would never melt. Due to the magnificent ability of this gemstone to amplify energy and vibrate in all color frequencies, it can harmonize with all the chakras. Moreover, it will maintain perfect alignment during the meditation process, and is fantastic when considering your connection to Angelic realms.
The Japanese called Clear Quartz "the perfect jewel" and viewed it as a symbol of infinite space, purity, perseverance and patience. Indigenous cultures in the Americas and in Burma have believed clear Quartz varieties to be living entities and presented them with good as ritual offerings. In South and Central America, skulls were carved from Clear Quartz and used as powerful, religious objects; the dwellings of deceased ancestors.
Clear Quartz can be used for almost any metaphysical purpose, including healing, consciousness expansion, chakra opening, communication with guides, past life recall, inter dimensional travel, mood balancing, and sending love and receiving prosperity.
