Lapis Lazuli and Malachite

Many crystals form alongside others but one of the most attractive crystal amalgamations is lapis lazuli and malachite. Both malachite and lapis lazuli have beautiful colours and when they form together the results can be stunning. Seen in the examples below, lapis lazuli is a bright blue stone while malachite is a lovely vibrant green. Both lapis lazuli and malachite have been prized for thousands of years and used as important decorative stones.

These stones are also highly complimentary in terms of crystal healing. Malachite is a goddess stone and a stone of transformation. It is said to help us make positive changes and give pain relief from injuries, arthritis, period pain and childbirth. Lapis lazuli was called the ‘Stone of Rulers’ by the Ancient Egyptians. It is believed to protect, inspiration, wisdom and truth.

These lapis and malachite tumble stones are a lovely way to enjoy the beauty of the crystals. They really shine with colour and look very attractive placed around the home. These tumble stones are 20-25mm in size so you can take them anywhere with you. You could also focus on one during meditation or place them on the skin during crystal healing.

It fits in the palm of your hand so it is perfect for focusing on during meditation and healing work. Palm stones make pretty ornaments and great gifts for anyone interested in crystals.

How To Use Palm Stones

Palm stones are polished oval stones that can be used for crystal healing, meditation and many other esoteric healing practices. The reason that palm stones are called ‘palm stones’ is very simple: they fit perfectly into the palm of your hand. These stones are a great way to access the energy of a particular crystal and they are ideal for crystal healing. Palm stones are also inexpensive, so they are an affordable way to expand your own healing practice. Palm stones typically measure 5cm by 7cm.

Palm stones can be used in many different ways but the two simplest methods are to either place the stone on the body part in need of healing or to hold the crystal whilst performing a healing action or meditating. The tactile shape and small size of palm stones makes them easy to place upon the body or in other locations. They can also be easily transported or even carried with you as you go about your day.

Crystal Egyptian Pendulums

Ouadj Egyptian Pendulum

The Egyptian pendulum is a special shape of pendulum that can be used for a wide range of dowsing and healing applications. Here at Crystal Age we have a wonderful new range of crystal Egyptian pendulums that are a pleasure to use. Egyptian pendulums have a distinctive shape based on Ancient Egyptian amulets and they can be made from wood, metal, crystal or even plastic. Personally I much prefer a crystal Egyptian pendulum as you not only benefit from the properties of the crystal but you also end up with a pendulum that is beautiful in itself.

The Original Egyptian Pendulum

The shape of Egyptian pendulums is based upon an Egyptian amulet known as the ‘Oaudj’ amulet, pictured on the right. These amulets have been found in the bandages of many Ancient Egyptian mummies and they we used to guide and protect the deceased in the next world. These amulets came to the attention of crystal healers thanks to the work of famous dowsers M.A. De Belizal, P.A. Morel and their book Physique Micro Vibratoire et Forces Invisible. They studied Oaudj amulets and discovered it to be a powerful tool, perhaps used by Ancient Egyptian priest-magicians to perform sacred rites. Nowadays Egyptian pendulums are used for many different crystal healing applications including dowsing and work with waveforms. They are a wonderful tool for healing and can be explored in an endless variety of ways.

Our Crystal Egyptian Pendulums

Here at Crystal Age we have a range of beautiful crystal Egyptian pendulums, a selection of which you can see below. These Egyptian pendulums are 7cm long and they have a lovely tactile, rounded shape. Each one comes ready to use on a 25cm silver tone chain.

Crystal balls can be used in many ways and they are beautiful objects. Polished crystal balls have traditionally been used for scrying and clairvoyance. The best crystals for this are usually quartz and obsidian. They are also ideal for crystal healing and mineral collecting. One advantage of using crystal balls in healing is that a sphere radiates energy equally in all directions, enhancing its ability to affect a space or person.
