Description
This amazing 5.8 inch long Phi proportioned Heptagonal 7 Petal 7 Gate Dream Flower Vogel Crystal Healing Wand, made of natural Brazilian quartz, and weighing 5.93 ounces, or 168 grams, was created by Brazilian crystal healer and Master Cutter Ray Pinto, according to the principles of sacred geometry, to optimize the natural crystal's ability to receive, store and transmit Universal Life Force Energy for purposes of healing and meditation.
For over 30 years, crystal healers and energy workers have been thrilled to experience the artistry and power of Ray's unique designs.
It is a tragic loss for all of us in the crystal community worldwide that Ray died earlier this year.
Ray's gorgeous wands are now collector's items as well as Lightworker's power tools.

We obtained this amazing Vogel Wand from the collection of Marcel Vogel's student Paul Jensen this month. Ray's creation is one of the most ambitious and elaborate cut crystal healing wands ever conceived and executed on planet Earth.
The female termination tip of this Vogel crystal looks like a small pyramid, because Ray cut this wand to mimic the proportions of the Great Pyramid at Giza, which is thought to be a mammoth antenna and amplifier for Universal Life Force Energy, built with Phi ratio proportionality.
The Heptagonal Phi Crystal Dream Flower Wand has seven large concave facets along the sides separated by flat facets and 77 flat facets on both male and female ends.
On the female termination tip you'll find the seven concave facets along the shaft have been extended partway, creating a seven-sided star inscribed by the 77 flat facets on the female tip, a testament to the astounding mastery of Ray Pinto, who created this one-of-a-kind crystal wand.
The concave facets on the female tip serve as conduits for the energy flowing from the palm chakra of the crystal healer using the wand, serving to increase the flow of Universal Life Force Energy into and through the crystal healing wand.
Ray inscribed this gorgeous Heptagonal Dream Flower Vogel Wand with a seven-petaled flower on the female termination tip, a testimony to Ray's unparalleled craftsmanship. The seven-petaled flower also serves an important energetic function -- enhancing the flow of Universal Life Force energy from the palm chakra of the individual using the wand, and thus increasing the flow of this healing energy through the wand.
The seven sided dream wand resonates with the very highest frequency of energy associated with the Great Goddess in her role as creatrix and sustainer of the Universe.
The seven-sided star is associated with the transcendent energy signature of the Goddess Nuith, the Egyptian Goddess of the Night Sky, who is associated with divinely ordained synchronicities, the bliss of unconditional love blessed by harmonious constellations of stars, and the "mystico unio" of adepts on the path of meditation.
Marcel Vogel's Crystal Wisdom
This precision light instrument, with a unique cut based upon the specifications of legendary scientist and crystal healer Marcel Vogel, is a powerful subtle energy tool, and can be used for many kinds of healing work as well as for meditation.
“The crystal is a neutral object whose inner structure exhibits a state of perfection and balance,” according to crystal researcher Marcel Vogel, a senior scientist with IBM for 27 years. “When it's cut to the proper form and when the human mind enters into relationship with its structural perfection, the crystal emits a vibration which extends and amplifies the powers of the human mind. Like a laser, it radiates energy in a coherent, highly concentrated form, and this energy may be transmitted into objects or people at will.”
Marcel Vogel worked for IBM for 27 years doing research and development. He developed the magnetic coating for IBM’s disc drive, which acts as the storage unit for a computer's memory, he created the first liquid crystal displays, or LCDs.
To learn more about Marcel Vogel and his techniques for crystal healing, read the first several chapters of his never-before-published autobiography, edited by Curtis Lang, which is in our Vogel Archives.

From his experimental work with crystals, Vogel learned that by pointing a crystal at another person, the crystal would amplify the person’s thoughts and emotions. This often also led to putting the individual into an altered state of consciousness. The next step was for Vogel to utilize the quartz crystals for therapeutic purposes.
Marcel Vogel sought to use the power of science and of the lapidary arts to perfect crystalline forms of nature in order to maximize their potential for receiving, amplifying and transmitting Universal Life Force Energy charged with the intent to heal and with the force of love. Vogel cut his crystals to harmonize with the natural quartz structure to enhance the energetic properties of the wand for healing purposes, and the result is also aesthetically pleasing.
Vogel believed that the most important thing to remember in working with faceted crystals for healing is that the purpose of the faceting should be to amplify and transmit an increasingly coherent stream of energy to a subject.
Some hexagonal quartz crystal wands occur naturally with six more or less equilateral sides and more or less equal triangular termination facets. Energy healers discovered that these six sided wands amplifed the energy being transmitted by the wand when the termination facets on the female end created a more obtuse angle and when the termination facets on the male end created a more acute angle.
In a naturally formed quartz crystal of somewhat irregular shape and symmetry, the energy within the crystal tends to move through the crystal in a less directed way than the Vogel style cuts. But when a crystal had a very definite symmetry, especially the hexagonal symmetry, then the energy gathers in the larger, receptive end of the crystal, and if directed by a knowledgeable human hand, travels in a series of tighter and tighter concentric circles around the interior of the crystal, and down into the tip of the male end of the crystal, where it would be emitted as a much more coherent stream of energy.
Energy healers also discovered that when the sharp male tip of the healing wand is congruent with the C-axis of the crystal, exactly centered within the circle formed when you look head-on at the male end of the crystal, this made the energetic flow stronger and more coherent.
When the sharp tip on the female end of the crystal, where the six termination facets meet, is congruent with the C-axis of the crystal, exactly centered within the circle formed when you look head-on at the female end of the crystal, this made the energetic flow stronger and more coherent.
Total symmetry created the crystal healer's version of the laser beam, the highly cut and faceted Vogel crystal.
Marcel Vogel's healing wands were refined artistic versions of this well-known type of hexagonal natural healing wand, known for millennia to energy healers worldwide.
According to Marcel Vogel's written specifications for Vogel healing wands, good Vogel wands should have precisely equal facets on the shaft and tips; good clarity, preferably 90% or more; a well-defined C-axis that runs parallel to the shaft; and termination tips centered in the very middle of the shaft. The male and female terminations should be sharp, and the male should be more acute than the female. The female termination should be larger than the male tip.
The male termination tip of this gorgeous Vogel healing wand is fashioned to form an extremely sharp tip designed to maximize the coherence and strength of energy streaming from the wand, while the female termination tip was cut a little wider, to maximize the area available for input of Universal Life Force energy from Source, and particularly from the palm chakra of the crystal healing practitioner.
As the prana spirals down the shaft of the wand, the energy stream is amplifed every time it encounters a facet on the shaft. The super-charged energy stream coalesces at the male end of the wand, and is emitted as a highly coherent laser-like beam for use in meditation, vibrational healing and subtle communications.
Energy and crystal healers prize Vogel cut quartz crystals to this day. The art of cutting crystals for use in healing requires extensive knowledge of the high art of crystal-cutting and polishing, an intuitive feel for the subtle energies involved, and an awareness of the needs of the energy healer who will be using the wand.
In his early experiments with cutting healing crystals, which he conducted for many years, Marcel Vogel saw the Kabbalistic Tree of Life in a dream, which is shaped very much like four sided crystal wand with double termination tips. He created his first 4-sided healing wands in that shape, and told the story of their origin in the crystal healing workshops he gave students around the world.

Over time, Marcel also designed 6, 8, 12 and 13 sided double terminated crystal healing wands and 6 sided single terminated meditation crystals with a flat base. At first he and his family cut them and sold them to students of crystal healing. Later they involved other cutters as well.
Ray Pinto's brother Walber Pinto studied directly with Marcel Vogel, who is now deceased, and Ray and Walber have practiced crystal healing and precision cutting of crystal healing wands for decades. Their artisanship and dedication to energy healing is well known wherever Lightworkers gather throughout the world.
Since Marcel’s death in 1991, crystal designers and cutters like Ray Pinto and Drew Tousley, who was one of Marcel Vogel’s early cutters, have created healing crystal wands of new types with incredibly complex designs based upon principles of sacred geometry, which are still true to the basic ideas of Marcel Vogel.
Today, we have 24-sided, 33-sided, 44-sided, 88-sided 108-sided and 144-sided Kabbalistic crystal healing wands, cut in the highly geometrical style originated by Marcel Vogel.
In addition we have Dream Vogel wands, created by Ray Pinto after Marcel came to him in a dream in the early Nineteen Nineties.
Properties of the Heptagonal Dream Vogel Wand
Throughout Marcel Vogel's career, many of his scientific discoveries were facilitated by revelations he received in a dream state. Since his death, this tradition of dream discovery continues through the work of his students.
In 1997 Vogel appeared to Ray Pinto, the Brazilian cutter of the Kabbalistic healing wands, in a dream. In the dream, showed Pinto the design for a unique healing wand with concave faces nestled among the traditional flat facets, on male and female ends. It took Ray nearly two years to refine the equipment he uses to cut the stones so that he could produce these exceptional precision healing tools.
The Dream Wand connects the bearer to a Higher Octave of Energy, the energy configuration that exists in the realms above the seven physical chakras and the eighth chakra which is the locus of the Higher Self.
Pinto says that the design is unique in its ability to connect us with our own Divinity so that we may more fully embody Unity Consciousness here on Earth.
"The Dream crystal is composed of a combination of two facets," Pinto explains. "One is thin and flat and the other is concave and wide. The first thin and flat surface is termed a DOOR. The second concave and wide surface is called a GATE. At the upper and lower terminations of the crystal there are thin and narrow facets known as WINDOWS, or combinations of the fine narrow facets with the large concave facets that reflect the body of the crystal."
Pinto has designed the Dream wand to generate two kinds of energy fields. First, a concentrated laser energy field which flows through the focal points at the male and female termination tips of the wand. Second, a wide-angle plasma energy field that flows out through the concave faceted windows at the top and bottom of the wand's shaft.
Thus this wand combines a highly focused laser-like flow of light energy from the male termination tip with a broader field of energy that radiates outward from the concave faceted sides of the wand on the male end, during normal use.
"The plasma field of energy is similar to that of a DNA molecule," says Pinto. "Since this plasma energy field has the same characteristics as the vibratory pattern of the DNA molecule, the Dream Crystal naturally resonates with the DNA of the cells, causing a release of genetic information that may be the cause of illnesses and certain abnormal behavior that inhibits our true freedom. Similarly, the laser energy field generated by the crystal acts in the psyche of the person, fully cleansing and organizing the matrix of the body/mind. In this regard, the Dream Crystal is a powerful subliminal mind laser and a tremendously effective device for energy healing."
The seven-sided dream wand has a unique energy signature, which is related to the principles of sacred geometry. Seven is of course the number of major chakras, and the seventh chakra is the crown chakra, which is associated with the colors violet, white or gold, and with the Higher Mind, Christ Consciousness, Cosmic Consciousness or Krishna Consciousness.
Seven is also the number of colors in the rainbow, the number of notes in the Western musical scale, and the seven stages of inner transformation through sustained spiritual practice that enable the yogi to raise the kundalini to each succeeding chakra center, to pierce each center, and to remain centered and balanced as this immensely powerful energy continues to elevate the yogi's consciousness over time.
In the yogic tradition, when, through arduous spiritual practices, the spiritual aspirant awakens the kundalini energy, which normally lies asleep, coiled in a spiral in the lowest chakra, near the perineum, the kundalini rises up the spine, slowly piercing each of the seven chakras until it reaches the crown chakra. When the spiritual aspirant succeeds in raising the kundalini to the crown, this is said to be the marriage of Shiva and Shakti, and confers enlightenment upon the yogi, who has now achieved adeptship.
The energy of the seventh chakra thus represents the marriage of the male and female principles in an alchemical union, and also constitutes the fusion of the lower self with the Higher Self, the attainment of Unity consciousness.
The sacred geometry of the seven-sided dream wand is designed to resonate with the extremely elevated energy signature of the awakened and enlightened seventh chakra, and the energy of this water clear quartz dream Vogel wand is said to be of the same frequency as the golden light referred to in Western mysticism as Christ Consciousness, making this wand ideal for healing and for meditation by those on the spiritual path, who seek to elevate their consciousness and unite with Higher Mind.
John Michell, in his Dimensions of Paradise says, "The 'Lamb in the midst of the throne,' in Revelation 5:6 has 'seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God.' The geometer's image of this creature is the heptagram with seven horns and seven triangles containing eyes. The eyed triangle of the heptagon, which has a base angle (51 degrees 26 minutes) nearly the same as that of the Great Pyramid of Egypt (51 degrees 51 minutes), may be the origin of the mystic symbol of the eye in the pyramid."
The seven sided dream wand resonates with the very highest frequency of energy associated with the Great Goddess in her role as creatrix and sustainer of the Universe. The seven-sided star is associated with the transcendent energy signature of the Goddess Nuith, the Egyptian Goddess of the Night Sky, who is associated with divinely ordained synchronicities, the bliss of unconditional love blessed by harmonious constellations of stars, and the "mystico unio" of adepts on the path of meditation.
In the Tarot deck, the seventeenth Trump, called The Star, reveals the Virgin Goddess pouring forth her cosmic waters from the transcendent realm into the material Universe, where they manifest as the energy called Shakti, materializing as the Milky Way, the array of stars that illuminate and enliven the entirety of the natural realm.
The number seven is associated with the transcendent Virgin Goddess because seven is considered a "virgin" number. No number less than seven can be divided into it evenly, and no number can be multiplied by seven to produce another number, a "child", within the Holy Decad, considered to be the parameters of the original creation.
Every one of the ten numbers in the Decad can be divided evenly into 360, the number of degrees in a circle -- except for seven. The heptagon consists of seven literally unmeasurable, thus virginal, angles, and another elusive, virginal angle from its center to its corners. Thus the ever-virginal heptagon cannot be captured or constructed by the Cosmic Geometer. The regular heptagon is the smallest polygon that cannot be constructed using only the three tools of the geometer, the compass, the straightedge and the pencil.
Thus the heptagon is associated with the transcendent aspect of the Great Goddess known as Pallas Athena or Minerva, who was said not to have been born from the womb, as other gods and goddesses, but rather to have sprung from Zeus' brow. When the numerological values of the letters of Pallas Athena's title "Pallas" or "Maiden" are added together, they total 343, which equals 7 X 7 X 7, the volume of a cube whose sides are seven units long. The cube is considered to be symbolic of material creation, so the role of the transcendent Creatrix is alluded to in the sacred geometry of her very title.
This seven-sided Flower of Life Dream Wand resonates with the healing, elevating energy of the transcendent Creatrix, and with the energy of the transcendent Creator, the "sacred marriage" of Shiva and Shakti, and the beautiful sacred geometry of the wand amplifies the energy signature of this powerful professional light instrument.
