Clear Quartz
Clear or Pure Quartz is an abundant crystal/stone in the quartz family.
Naturally clear and radiant, it is also one of the few crystals that don't need cleansing.
Clear quartz is a very strong amplifier of energy, it can be worn along with other stones as an amplifier. It is commonly used to raise vibrational frequencies of a person or home and during spiritual rituals, intention speaking/setting and crystal physical therapy.
“Quartz is the most common material identified as the mystical substance maban in Australian Aboriginal mythology. It is found regularly in passage tomb cemeteries in Europe in a burial context, such as Newgrange or Carrowmore in Ireland. The Irish word for quartz is grianchloch, which means 'sunstone'. Quartz was also used in Prehistoric Ireland, as well as many other countries, for stone tools; both vein quartz and rock crystal were knapped as part of the lithic technology of the prehistoric peoples.
In the 17th century, Nicolas Steno's study of quartz paved the way for modern crystallography. He discovered that regardless of a quartz crystal's size or shape, its long prism faces always joined at a perfect 60° angle.

Some types of quartz crystals have piezoelectric properties; they develop an electric potential upon the application of mechanical stress. An early use of this property of quartz crystals was in phonograph pickups. One of the most common piezoelectric uses of quartz today is as a crystal oscillator. The quartz clock is a familiar device using the mineral.”
