This is a wonderful fully terminated, 3.1 oz, 1.9” by 1.7” by 1.4” DT heliodor crystal.  Heliodor is a yellow beryl that ranges from golden to yellow-green, so tinted because of iron impurities.  He is the later color and gemmy with the most amazing glyphs on his terminations and sides (some minute enough that you will want a loupe to study them deeper).  His sides are striated and both terminations are multi-terminated. This wonderful palm-size is extremely rare in this quality. He is from Brazil and is like holding a spring sunbeam in your hand … gorgeous, intense and totally magnificent!

Heliodor is a word from the Greek meaning ‘gift of the sun’ and truly, what a joy this Spirit is!  He is bright and sunny and difficult to put down once you pick him up.  Beryl in every manifestation (from emerald to aquamarine to morganite to heliodor) is a communicator.  This Spirit stimulates you to see things in new ways – to open your Self up to other possibilities, other realities, other perspectives.  He helps you stimulate your own creativity and in doing so, you uniquely express your Self in new ways and allow others to speak to you.  His ancient etchings provide an important link to times long past – ceremonies, rites and rituals.  He is a link to the past that we need to know so as to prepare for the future.

Delightful Golden-Green DT Heliodor (Beryl)

This is a very unusual, 1 oz very lustrous Brazilian aquamarine crystal with a bit of albite to the back base of his contact area.  He is glassy and mist filled (milky) until you get to his termination … which is ultra clear for a few mm. It looks as if this layer was a secondary growth as you can see just a bit of layering on his striated sides.  He is perfect for grids or altar where he can project the energies upward and outward.  He is 1.4" by 0.95" by 0.4" and he will delight you with his handsomeness and energy!

Aquamarine is pretty much a forgotten crystal except as used in jewelry.  But, it is one of the most important crystals to the crystal healer or Reiki practitioner!  Aquamarine is known as the Stone of Courage.  It helps one understand the core Self and take pride, delight and pleasure in all the Self is.  And with that knowing comes not just courage, but the ability to transmute negativity.  For once you truly know your Self, you know that negative energies cannot harm you or take hold of you.  You are able to turn them around into positive!  He is the perfect size for laying on the body or tucking in a medicine pouch.  He would be excellent carried on a daily basis where he can always provide the right energies when you need them most!

Simply Lovely Milky Aquamarine Crystal with Clear Termination

This is a 1.2 oz (a wonderful 169.5 carets of delicate pinkness!), 1.4" by 1.3" by 1" etched, DT crystal of Brazilian of morganite with a delicate rose color.  Morganite is in the beryl family, along with heliotrope and aquamarine, with this delicious pink being the most highly sought-after.  She is well-terminated all over with amazing etchings that give her Mother Nature’s idea of faceting and also yield that frosty look.  There is no matrix what-so-ever and she is in excellent condition and as energetic as she is sweet.

Morganite is one of my favorite heart stones.  It functions a little differently than rose quartz in that Morganite is more about balance.  She helps you to truly listen and speak with your heart.  One of my favorite authors, Antoinne de St. Exupery, wrote ‘Le Petit Prince’ in the mid-1940s.  It has since been translated into many languages and reprinted time after time with the simple message of trusting your heart:

‘And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.’

The mind overly rationalizes things and without the ‘temper’ of the heart, there would be no compassion, no emotion and no loving expression.  Morganite, Goddess of Balance, helps you to put things in perspective, taking the mind into account, but also giving equal vote to the heart.  She helps you deal with issues of equity, equality and alignment.  Welcome this Spirit into your life and use her in your meditations to help balance and interpret the messages you receive.  She is a vital tool for any Light Worker.
