Smoky Quartz

Smoky Quartz has always been known as one of the strongest and most effective tools for dissolving and transmuting negative energies. Not only will it protect one’s aura and body from negative vibrations, but also transform existing negative energies into something more positive.

Smoky Quartz can also help you find the determination that some have lost in their daily lives. By putting your own needs first, this stone can become one of the strongest tools, to manifest that specific power needed to tackle life’s most difficult challenges.

It’s the perfect stone for people who constantly find themselves with a wandering mind and an inability to focus. Smoky Quartz is here to assist in not only clearing your mind but to allow you to be more level headed.

If you are on a spiritual quest and have been working on any of your metaphysical or psychic abilities, it is possible you may have become un-grounded. Smoky Quartz is one of the most effective grounding for us to keep within our aura and ground us back down into the earth.

The Druids were high-ranking Ancient Celts who acted as priests, teachers and judges. They considered Smoky Quartz to be sacred and they used it in their ceremonies and rituals. It was also believed that it would guide souls to the afterlife.

Religious objects were often decorated with Smoky Quartz, with some European countries using it to make crucifixes which they hung up in their bedrooms to keep evil away. It was even used by the Chinese in the 12th century as sunglasses, using them to protect the eyes.

This particular Quartz variety forms in masses and crystal structures of all sizes.

The colour of the natural Smoky Quartz crystal may vary, ranging from light smoky or browny grey to a black.

The lighter crystal is transparent with many complex crystalline structures within. The brown Smoky Quartz gets it’s colour from natural radiation (due to the proximity of other radioactive minerals) or natural irradiation. Whereas the black Smoky Quartz is not natural, being produced by unnatural irradiation.
