This gorgeous sphere was another challenge to photograph.  With its superb clarity and highly reflective rainbows, it made taking its picture a bit difficult.  Much stronger than the pics show, the rainbows are brilliant and vibrant and flash from nearly every angle you could view this beauty.  And I have ever been a softie for a pretty rainbow!  So as you view the pics for this sphere, remember that they pale in comparison to the real thing.  This beautiful quartz sphere has a faint scattering of veils that look like stars strewn across a night sky, and the rainbows make me think of the aurora borealis cascading its brilliant colors through the sky.  Clearly visible in the second image is a small amount of red iron oxide that also adds the protective energy of a golden healer to the already vital energy of this rare quality Brazilian sphere.

The sphere measures 2.4" in diameter and weighs just under a pound.

Crystal balls which have been contoured in the spherical configuration send energy in all directions and are the most unified of shapes. These spheres facilitate smoother communication in group gatherings by rounding off rough edges. They are often used as "windows" to faraway places-the past and the future. They have been used in the activity of gazing, as if from afar, in order to assist one in the evaluation of a present situation or circumstance. Crystal balls have been used to purify and to fill the gaps in the entire auric field when worn or held. Small spheres are also used as charms and worn or carried to prevent and/or to ameliorate degenerative diseases.  Spheres are wonderful for transmitting energy, as they do so in all directions!

 Rainbow quartz brings happiness into life through the rainbows. They help deal with negativity and help to maintain the constant awareness of love. Because of the rainbows, they produce the full spectrum of colors, the white light of healing and perfections being dispersed into the individual rays of the rainbow. Rainbow quartz can be used on all chakras.
