💎 ANGEL AURA QUARTZ LORE:
Angel Aura Quartz is a Clear Quartz crystal that has been permanently bonded with precious metals, primarily Platinum and Silver, through a process known as electrostatic alchemy. Though enhanced by modern techniques, these stones still echo the ancient traditions of transformation, blending the energetic properties of Quartz with the high vibrations of the metals they’re fused with.
The result is an iridescent, rainbow-hued gem that radiates uplifting, serene energy. Angel Aura Quartz is believed to stimulate the spirit, promote peace, and deepen one’s connection to higher realms, especially to guardian angels. It's a gentle yet powerful stone, often used at the Throat Chakra for loving communication, romantic expression, and nurturing care, whether with children, elders, or those in need of healing.
This crystal also supports the alignment and cleansing of all chakras, said to aid in the activation of the Rainbow Light Body. Angel Aura is considered an all-healer, harmonizing one’s energy field with the physical body and encouraging a sense of divine serenity and inner light.
💎 HIMALAYAN CLEAR QUARTZ LORE:
Himalayan Quartz is a rare and ancient variety of Quartz that formed within the Himalayan Mountains, running through Nepal and Bhutan, and creating the border between India and China. It is almost always gathered by hand, due to the fact that it is near impossible for machinery and heavy tools to reach the mountains where they are found. The majority of Himalayan Quartz gathered has a smoky look or is full of red Hematite inclusions, but the rarest and most beautiful pieces found are so clear that you can see through them completely.
In regard to their history, Quartz crystals have been thought of as a source of light to mankind since ancient times. Highly valued by spiritual leaders and healers as well as scientists, quartz crystals have played a key role in our development over the last few thousand years. Cultures like the Native American Indians, African tribes, Ancient Egyptians, Aztecs and Roman used quartz for meditation, healing rituals, spiritual development and magic.
Today, Clear Quartz is thought to be a crystal that brings clarity, energy and power to its wearer. It is said to help bring balance into one's life, aid in manifestation, and help one's creative drive. As well as this, Himalayan Clear Quartz is thought to radiate a calming energy and provide a shield to protect from negativity.
💎 AURORA OPAL LORE:
Aurora Opals are lab-created Opals that use Silica (the natural compound that all Opals are made of) and combine it with Polymer using a complex layering process, creating incredible swirly plays of colour in the most gorgeous colours. Unlike natural Opals that are extremely delicate, Aurora Opals are stronger, more resistant to chemicals, and not susceptible to color fading.
Aurora Opals are considered to be wonderful stones for improving one's mood, creativity, independence, growth and self-esteem. It's said to be powerful in reducing anger, promoting a sense of joy and fulfillment, increasing memory and helping to guide enthusiasm in areas of creativity. As well as this, Aurora Opals are thought to improve both mystical and psychic powers.
