This lovely 90% water clear blue tall Indigo Quartz Polished Actinolite Channeling Wand has a blue color comparable to a view into a Caribbean Sea common among this batch of alluvial Actinolite Quartz. You can use this lovely stone to meditate with or place on an altar or by the bedside.
Extremely rare, translucent Indigo Quartz contains formations of ochre coloured actinolite, a hydrous calcium magnesium iron silicate. A portion of the back side of this light filled polished stone has the umber colored inclusions and bits of earthtoned sienna coloring of Actinolite which comes through in luminous patches throughout the bottom of the shaft of this piece. The actinolite suffuses through the quartz crystal during its development, imparting the beautiful pale blue coloration to the quartz.
This Indigo Quartz crystal comes to us as part of a small shipment from Brazil, where it is available directly from the source in very limited quantities. Indigo Quartz is alluvial quartz, and this parcel was found in a farmer's field in Bahia, where it washed down from the mountains over long periods of time, migrating via river to the place where it was uncovered. There is no mine and thus very little production.
Actinolite based Indigo Quartz is considered to be an immensely powerful spiritual tool by crystal healers and practitioners of meditation. Actinolite works more intensely on the mental and physical bodies, with less subtlety than the Indicalite (Blue tourmaline or indigo quartz). This stone feels as though you are smoothing out all creases in the aura, relaxing anxieties & tensions VERY quickly, because in our experience it seems to work first on the mental body, quieting the mind, then extending it's thorough yet gentle unwinding to the physical.
Because this powerful channeling wand contains the distinctive seven sided face opposite a triangular face that marks a channeler, this crystal has a unique ability to connect the user to inner spiritual guidance, and to sources of Higher Wisdom in spiritual worlds, such as Spirit Guides, Angelic Presences and Spiritual Teachers.
During a crystal healing or Reiki self-treatment session, place the seven sided face of the crystal in your left hand, pointing in toward your wrist. The left hand is the is the receptive hand. Close your eyes, and relax.
Meditate quietly, observing your thoughts without pursuing them or allowing them to disturb your relaxation. Maintain a state of detached observation, neither approving or disapproving about your thoughts. Allow them to come and go, simply observing their passage. Maintain your attention on your breath, and attempt to breathe deeply and evenly. Breathe in slowly and evenly from the very bottom of your stomach and inhale deeply, until you have filled the diaphragm all the way to your throat. Exhale slowly and evenly through the nostrils, emptying the diaphragm all the way down to the very bottom of the lower stomach, several inches below the belly button. If you like, count the breaths as you go, until you reach one hundred.
Throughout the meditation, visualize a powerful aquamarine light streaming into your body from the crystal, filling it completely as you count your breaths, so that by the time you complete your meditation, your body is completely filled with the aquamarine light.
