This year our Tucson finds include beautiful Himalayan quartz that come from the Pavarti mine in India from the Shiva Himal region. These beautiful crystals and clusters are hand mined at altitudes up to 15,000 ft above sea level (that's almost 3 miles above sea level!). They have the wonderful high vibrational energy that the Himalayan crystals are becoming well known for. They sing and chant in tones that only soothes the soul and moves you towards a higher vibrational plane. They have a unique duality to their energy being of the earth and sky due to the high altitudes that they are mined at, giving you a sense of comfort and grounding giving you the freedom to explore the higher vibrational planes and are wonderful meditation companions.

 This is a fantastically clear Himalayan crystal.  Double terminated, its second termination is a twin marking this as an extra-terrestrial crystal.  There is a misty veil directly below this twin termination, with faint traces of mist leading into the main shaft and quickly dissipating.  The larger termination has large triangular markings with very wide bases, like hints of record keepers taking form.  The back of the crystal is covered in barnacles some microscopic.  There is golden clay trapped around the larger barnacle crystals giving this crystal a beautiful golden hue.

The crystal measures 2.8" x 1" x 1.2" and weighs 2.3oz.

A crystal with a point at each end is called double terminated. It is believed that they have the ability to receive or transmit energy from both ends. They are used for alignment, patience, perseverance, protection, dreaming, and astral projection. Double terminated crystals strengthen energy flow, and are especially useful when you need to share or exchange energy between you and another person. Double terminated crystals are very important to people doing healing work for themselves or others.

A crystal with a single termination at one end and multiple terminations at the other end is called an alien or extra-terrestrial crystal. The multiple terminations are usually caused by the healing of a broken point. It is believed this crystal will help channel space beings, celestial beings, and guardian angels.

A barnacle crystal is a crystal covered or partially covered with smaller crystals. It is believed the Barnacle crystal will help stimulate family or group cooperation. Its also a good companion when having lost a loved one.
