Quartz Formations

Quartz Formation

Description

Availability

Aperture Quartz

This type of Quartz can be identified by the presence of a ‘cup’ shape or little hollow in the crystal, large enough to hold a small amount of liquid.

Barcode

Barcode or Timeline crystals can be identified by the presence of lines (usually many) running horizontally across the shaft of the crystal. Perhaps most famously associated with Lemurian Seed Crystals, barcode formation quartz are crystals which are said to contain karmic information from the Akashic Record. This information can be accessed by gently rubbing the striations whilst meditating. The barcodes on Lemurians are believed to also contain implanted information left by the original guardians of these particular stones.

Quartz Formation Classification
Alongside the specific Quartz properties of type, such as Rose Quartz, Clear Quartz, Amethyst, etc, it also has ‘formations’. These formations are nearly always only found in Clear Quartz specimens and they are classified by their geometrical form, shape and other features such as internal inclusions. These add to the overall energy and metaphysical properties of Quartz, therefore, uses of the individual crystal. An individual Quartz crystal may have one, none or numerous formations. The more formations, the more varied metaphysical uses, but a crystal that doesn’t have any specific formations is still a powerful tool as Clear Quartz is the only truly programmable crystal.

The Metaphysical Properties of Quartz
All Quartz crystals have six main functions or properties. They can Structure, Store, Amplify, Focus, Transmit and Transform energy on all levels including physical matter, mental thought and emotional energy. This is reflected in some of the different formations found such as Channeller crystals, Transformation crystals, Double Terminated crystals, Laser crystals and so on.

Whilst some of the formations listed below can be man-made by polishing or carving, this guide deals only with naturally occurring types.
