This is a 1 oz. lot of metaphysical raw Herkimer quartz crystals. Herkimer Diamonds themselves are highly valued for their metaphysical properties. The attributes in this group are the many rainbows and healed fractures. A healed fracture occurs during the crystal's formation. Something caused a crack, or hesitation in growth. The crystal continued to grow and sealed itself. These crystals are considered powerful healers because of their ability to have healed themselves. They are also referred to as 'self healed' crystals.
These healed fractures and other inclusions allow rainbows to strike. Rainbows, also called 'color veils', occur when light is refracted by the prismatic effect of inclusions. Metaphysical crystal healers maintain they increase awareness that love is within all moments of life's experiences. Rainbows display best in bright light and sunshine.

Many of the Herkimer crystals have smooth facets (faces). Clarity is cloudy to good; the many growth occurrences are interesting to look at, especially with a loupe. The raw Herkimers are both single and double terminated, and also a decent size. A great wholesale lot for metaphysical crystals healers. |
