Quartz crystals are at the core of modern electronics devices, from clocks and watches to global communications and navigation systems. Their stable, precise operating frequencies enable devices to work as intended.
An alternating current causes quartz crystals to vibrate at their own unique resonant frequency when passed through it, with their exact shape, size, and cut determining their own specific resonant frequency.
Clear quartz
Clear quartz is one of the most frequently utilized crystals among energy healers and spiritual seekers alike. Known to purify and strengthen intentions, making it an excellent way to bring dreams and goals to fruition.
Clear Quartz resonates with the Crown Chakra, which governs spiritual connection and enlightenment. It is widely believed to facilitate emotional healing while alleviating suffering and creating inner peace.
Clear quartz should be cleaned regularly to maintain its vibratory energy. You can smudge it using sage or palo santo, immerse it in water, place it under direct sunlight or moonlight, or connect with its source to replenish its energies.

Amethyst is a variety of quartz that is widely renowned for its purple hues. This stone can range from soft pastel shades all the way through to deep royal purple shades for maximum impact.
As with other quartz crystals, amethyst has the hexagonal prism structure and rhombohedral faces found in other quartz varieties; however, unlike clear quartz it does not often exhibit accessorial faces like those often found on clear quartz. Furthermore, polysynthetical Brazil law twinning can sometimes occur under specific circumstances.
