Quartz, also called Himalayan Ice Quartz,is the name coined to describe a specific group of interference-growth quartz crystals discovered in the Himalayan Mountains in 2006, at an altitude of about 18,000 feet. It was discovereddue to the melting of glaciers caused by global warming.
They have apparently lain beneath the ice for thousands of years. The crystals themselves visually resemble ice sheets and jagged crevices. These are formed and complicated irregularities, with deep recesses and strange contours. No two pieces are alike, although it is clear that they are all a single species. Although most do not have the regular six-body, pointed-tip terminations of most types of quartz, they occasionally have natural facets and partially smooth bodies. Most are rod-shaped; many are rather thick and squat. An unusually high percentage are trigonic, with triangles etched into their surfaces.
Crystal system: hexagonal (trigonal).
A crystal is trigonic if it displays a triangle inscribed on one or more terminations.
Hardness: 7.
Color: white or light pink.
The coloration of about half of the specimens appears to derive from inclusions on or near their surfaces.
Growth interference quartz is said to get its fantastic shapes from the growth of calcite or other minerals within and during the formation of the quartz crystal body. Later, the interfering mineral dissolves, leaving the strangely shaped quartz.
They apparently existed and remained silent under the ice for thousands of years, waiting to present themselves to thehuman world.
The trigonal system can be found in clear quartz, amethyst, citrine, or smoky quartz. Clear quartz offers the highest vibrations. Amethyst enhances protection, citrine increases mental clarity, and smoky quartz facilitates grounding.
Trigonic Quartz can be used with other stones and its abilities will not diminish. On the contrary, it will magnify what the other stones offer. Nirvana Crystal or Trigonic Quartz adds a deeper and more powerful current than any other variety and greatly helps to shift one's main center of consciousness from head to toe. In doing so, they help one move from mere thought to knowledge, to a switched alignment with truth, allowing them to truly serve in the world.
Nirvana Quartz is perhaps the most powerful variety known.
Properties, benefits and virtues:
Virtues on the physical level:
Although the virtues and benefits of this crystal are based on the spiritual and emotional levels, they can help one find the strength and wisdom needed to cope with debilitating illness and imbalance.
Virtues on the psychological, emotional and mental level:
Helps overcome difficulties and painful experiences while cultivating inner beauty and strength.
Helps dispel the illusion of imperfection, brokenness, and victimization, encouraging us to recognize and celebrate our uniqueness and individuality.
Teaches us that every experience we go through that we thought stunted our growth was actually a perception of our minds. These experiences may leave their scars, but these scars, in themselves, speak to our true beauty by revealing the strength and wisdom gained along life's journey.
Helps those who judge themselves, positively or negatively, to recognize the true beauty of the spirit that underlies all creation. Its energy can help overcome patterns of victimization, unworthiness, or self-degradation.
Helps to situate oneself in the immediacy (the here and now), leading to feeling more present in one's body and in one's reality as an inhabitant of the Earth.
Excellent tool to promote synergy and harmony of the heart and mind, the two seats of our consciousness.
Virtues on the spiritual level:
The resonance of Nirvana Quartz is like a gateway between the past and the future.
Although they carry the current of the deep and silent past, their mission is to attune us to the as yet unformed potential of what can be.
Brings us to our highest destiny through evolutionary transmutation.
Trigonal quartz crystals, all types, are facilitators of internal transition and transmutation, and are sensitive to the future flow. They are among the most powerful crystals for spiritual awakening and self-transformation.
Nirvana Quartz evokes enlightenment and reveals what these crystals offer us.
Brings us to currents of deep inner illumination. It is the embodiment of illumination here and now, in our bodies on earth.
An excellent ally for meditation work, it helps access inner sources of wisdom and information. It can also be useful for rediscovering a different life experience.
In meditation, it puts an end to the incessant monologue caused by the mind.
Meditation with these crystals is first and foremost an immersion in deep peace and inner silence. The inner dialogue of thoughts calms down much more easily than usual. It is as if a gentle hand were moving inside the skull and the small self of the ego fell silent, impressed by the touch of such a being.
Develops and strengthens clairvoyance and extra-lucid dreams.
It also allows for daydreaming to bring us more clearly and consciously towards our real existential needs and thus towards the path of our highest destiny.
Instill in us the strength and courage needed to inspire us to develop our potential in order to go beyond the simple magic of life, into the flow of the miraculous.
Ensures a good integral connection of the brain/mind with the heart. Nirvana Quartz crystals, clear/white, tend to stimulate and awaken the third eye and crown chakras, while pink crystals are felt deep in the heart. Yet, the current of both types of Nirvana Quartz can flow through the entire passage between the head and the heart.
Reveals the importance of inner radiance and the need to overcome difficulties and trials on the path of spiritual ascension.
Chakras:
Can be used on all chakras without distinction.
A pink Nirvana quartz can be placed on the heart and a white Nirvana quartz on the 3rd chakra. Used in meditation, they promote peace and inner silence.
Cleaning, recharging, reprogramming:
Cleansing on a mat of coarse Himalayan rock salt or placed on the ground at the foot of a large tree (never water).
Direct charging on a crystal or amethyst druse, in a crystal or amethyst geode. You can also place a dozen laser crystals or rocks in a circle (like a time dial), points towards the center, and place your minerals in the center to charge them.Another method is to place your minerals in a singing bowl: Tibetan or crystal bowl, (on a cotton cloth to avoid bowl/mineral vibrations), then ring the bowl to fill your minerals with this sound energy. Last method is to place your minerals on a disc (wood or mineral) engraved with the flower of life or the seal of Solomon or any other form of sacred geometry.
Reprogramming: Reprogramming is not about telling your mineral what to do or not to do, but about putting the mineral inresonate with you to ask it to do what it needs to do, for you. Reprogramming must be done after each cleansing and must remain simple. Example of reprogramming: "I ask this mineral to bring me all the virtues and benefits on the different levels, for my greater good as well as for the greater good of the people around me."
