WHAT ARE SPHERES?
Sphere shaped crystals and stones are representative of the “whole” universe and everything contained in it. Spheres are synonymous with the “whole” person. This forceful field of light and energy can be used as protection against negativity. It can become our own personal healer for the body as well as a tranquilizer and transformer for the spirit. It can be placed in the room to cleanse the atmosphere of large areas – our homes and places of work.
WHAT ARE EGGS?
Crystal eggs signify fertility and rebirth. They are also a symbol for renewal and new beginnings. Magic rituals often use eggs to promote fertility and restore virility (of the body and mind); and to foresee the future. They assist in the assimilation of new ideas.
HEARTS
Our hearts are meaningful symbols of love and friendship. They make delightful personal and momentous gifts.
WHAT IS A PYRAMID?
Pyramids built more than 5,000 years ago, are most impressive structures. The pyramid shape is a supernatural source of power and energy. There is power in the pyramid shape which is believed to have a generally balancing effect on the electromagnetic field of the body. Pyramids strongly focus and amplify energy through the peak. Crystal pyramids can be used to disperse negative energy and boost the essential properties of the crystal. They are also used for charging crystals, meditation, distant healing, massage, acupuncture and Reiki.
