Description
This beautiful 1.45" high Vogel cut Non Tarnishing Super Size Clear Quartz Star of David Pendant with Magenta Dichroic Glass was cut and mounted in tarnish resistant Argentium sterling silver by Master Lapidary Kings Amao, who worked for years with Drew Tousley and at Crystal Wings. Kings' wands and pendants are in the collections of many of Marcel Vogel's original students around the world.
This authentic Star of David pendant, faithful in intent, design and construction to Marcel's vision, comes with an 18" sterling silver chain which sits upon the thymus bringing maximum benefit of the stone to the wearer, complete in its own velveteen jewelry box for safe keeping.
In addition you'll receive an anti-tarnish translucent zip-lock jewelry bag that incorporates bonded copper particles into a polymer matrix, providing a shield against corrosive gases that can lead to tarnish on silver, gold, copper, and bronze jewelry and chains. This technology is used by NASA, the British Royal Mint and others worldwide.
Properties of Dichroic Glass
Two thousand years ago, Roman craftsmen added trace amounts of gold and silver to glass, and the metals partially reflected light passing through the glass, causing it to change color depending upon the viewing angle and the angle of the light source illuminating the glass object. This was known as "dichroic glass", which come from the Greek for "two colored glass".

The Lycurgus Cup is Roman dichroic glass cup dating from the 4th Century AD which appears red when lit from behind, and green when lit from the back.
In the mid-20th Century NASA scientists at the Johnson Space Center in Houston wanted to protect astronauts' eyes and mission critical computers from the harsh radiation experienced outside the Earth's shielding atmosphere.
NASA vaporized metals with electron beams in a vacuum chamber and applied the ultra thin metallic film directly onto glass, in a layer about 30 millionths of an inch thick.

This created a form of dichroic glass that reflects harmful radiation in space while remaining transparent to the human eye.
Modern dichroic glass is composed of dozens of ultra thin layers of metal oxides, such as titanium, chromium and aluminum, which can create startling colorful effects when used as a laminate in fine jewelry and glass artworks.
21st Century artisans and lapidaries can utilize various forms of dichroic glass to create jewelry and artworks with a variety of stunning, colorful effects.
Properties of Dichroic Magenta Quartz
Magenta combines equal parts of red and blue light, so stones with a magenta coloration resonate in harmony with the energetic signatures of the throat chakra, which is considered to be blue in the Western chakra system, and with the root chakra, which is seen as red in the Western chakra system.
Magenta colored stones acting on the root chakra serve as amulets of protection, shielding the bearer from negative ambient energies. Magenta colored stones working on the root chakra also promote sexual healing, to promote passionate connection between loving partners.

Most of all, magenta colored stones, with their affinity for the root chakra, are the quintessential stone of prosperity, used to manifest abundant wealth and income for millennia in cultures around the world.
All these properties are connected to the magenta colored stones connection to the root chakra, which governs issues of survival, adequate prosperity to sustain life, and sexual energy.
Magenta colored stones stimulate, energize, and cleanse the throat chakra, facilitating communications.
Magenta stones are excellent for anyone connected with the mass media or networked computing, or working on the Internet.
Magenta stones also enhance the bearer's ability to speak their own truth in such a way that it is easy for others to accept and understand.
Properties of the Star of David Pendant
The Star of David cut crystal was invented by IBM scientist and energy healer Marcel Vogel. Vogel invented the coating on computer hard drives that holds the memory. Vogel was also a renowned energy healer who created precision cut crystals intuitively, according to the principles of sacred geometry, for healing and meditation purposes.
Marcel, a Lightworker who performed crystal healings on others, always wore a Star of David for protection.
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.
You'll find Marcel Vogel's instructions for using crystals for healing and meditation in the book along with a lot of other very important information for all metaphysical rockhounds.
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.
Marcel Vogel created the Star of David to serve a versatile Lightworker's power tool that works as a receiver, amplifier and transmitter of Universal Life Force energies and strengthens the bearer's bio-field, or aura.
7 CHAKRAS AND HUMAN AURIC FIELD,

Mystery school traditions of both East and West have for millennia taught many difficult techniques for expanding the aura, for amplifying the human energy field. The reason is simple. The stronger the aura, the more tuned in the individual is to Source, and the better able they are to conduct Universal Life Force energy from the Source.
Universal Life Force energy travels from the person with the most highly charged auric field to the person with a less highly charged field.
This is how Spiritual Teachers, Ascended Masters, Gurus, Saints, Guides and angelic beings of light can have profound effects on all those who enter or are touched by their auric fields, and explains why the traditional Mystery School teachings of the East emphasize that the student must seek to be in the physical presence of the teacher to receive "darshan", the Light of the Teacher, which will bring the student many gifts.
A strong aura is the best protection from unwanted energies of all kinds, and serves as an energetic shield, protecting the bearer from all kinds of environmental toxins assailing us on the subtle levels 24 hours a day.
Those who work in the healing arts or in counseling know that a major issue for all health care providers and Lightworkers, bodyworkers and counselors is protection from the negativity encountered in the course of working on people who are wounded, physically, emotionally, mentally or spiritually.
We all need protection useful for protection from negative thoughtforms, other people's emotional debris, and other unwanted energies encountered in the everyday environment. The Star of David pendant is also excellent for amplifying and transmitting beneficial energies to others at will, in casual and clinical settings alike.
The Star of David crystals are very advanced precision tools for use in lightwork and vibrational healing.
The Star of David crystals have two sides. The front is flat and has an upward pointing triangle. The back is fatter and has a downward pointing triangle.
The front face is the male face, and it transmits light energy.
The back face is the female face, and it receives light energy.
When you wear the Star of David pendant, you put the female side next to your heart, and the male side is pointing out, away from your body.
When you see the translucent crystal from the front it appears to have a Star of David engraved on it, because of the two triangles cut into the faces.
This way, the female, receptive side of the crystal will pick up the energy coming from your heart, the crystal will transmute that energy into a very high frequency vibration, and the male side of the crystal will radiate that high frequency light energy in all directions around you, enveloping you and filling your aura with the cleansing, healing energy.
This strengthens your aura and helps protect your from unwanted, intrusive energies of all kinds in your environment.
In addition, you can actively use the Star of David cut crystal in healing energy work.
For instance, if you have a favorite essential oil or flower essence, and you would like to deliver it to a particular part of your body for healing purposes, this is what you would do.
Take the oil or flower essence and put a drop or two on the female side of the crystal. Place the crystal male side down on the part of the body you wish to treat. Place your hand over the female side of the crystal and direct your life force energy into the crystal from the chakra in the palm of your hand. Pray for healing.
The female side of the crystal will pick up the subtle energies from the flower essences, the crystal will amplify theat energy, and combine that healing energy with the energy from your palm chakra and from Source. Then the male side will radiate that energy through the male side of the crystal into the affected area.
You can do this for yourself and for others.
If you choose to use this healing crystal in this way on others, it is recommended that you clean the crystal afterwards.
