Rock Crystal geode: description and lithotherapy properties

A rock crystal geode is a spherical or oval rock formation whose inner walls are covered with a multitude of Quartz crystals. These geodes are formed mainly in volcanic or sedimentary environments, by an extremely slow process that can span thousands or even millions of years. A rock crystal geode usually forms from a bubble trapped in the volcanic lava, or from a cavity in a sedimentary formation. Over time, silica dissolved in groundwater infiltrates inside this bubble or cavity and begins to crystallize, giving rise to a complex and fascinating crystal structure. Outside, a crystal geode may look like an ordinary rock, but when open, it reveals an inner cavity lined with Quartz crystals. Specimens from Morocco are particularly valued for their outstanding quality and beauty.

The Rock Crystal is a Quartz composed of silicon dioxide, whose crystals are generally transparent, with 6 facets and naturally finished. It is a very widespread mineral on the planet, but Brazil is one of the most spectacular deposits. For millennia, this stone has fascinated and intrigued cultures around the world. Nowadays, the Rock Crystal is still very present in our daily lives. Indeed, its physical properties make it a mineral used in many technologies, mainly in the fields of electronics, medical, optics and precision mechanics, among others. It is also used for artistic and decorative purposes, such as the creation of jewellery, statuettes and art objects. The Rock Crystal is also coveted for its mystical powers and its many benefits and virtues in lithotherapy.

Nicknamed the Stone King, the Rock Crystal is considered a powerful purifier and energy amplifier. Both transmitter and receiver, it is a unique tool to program, activate and recharge other minerals. It contributes to spiritual elevation by promoting telepathy, clairvoyance and psychic faculties in general. The Rock Crystal is also known to activate Chakras, working on all energy centers. It symbolizes purity and consciousness.

Precautions and maintenance of a rock crystal geode

To preserve your rock crystal geode, we recommend avoiding thermal shocks, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or contact with chemicals. Use a soft brush to gently clean crystals. With regard to the outside of the geode, prefer a humidified tissue.
