Today I answer the FAQ “what does the crystal in your name and logo mean?”
The short answer to this question is that we make mineral based and crystal, or mineral infused products.
An example of a mineral infusion can be seen in our candles where a crystal sits on the surface until you light the wick and it disappears, mixing into the melting wax.
Our detergents contain crystalline minerals that are natures excellent cleaners, such as salt and baking soda.
One of the ingredients in our cleaner refills is quartz essence which is a quartz infusion.
Soap itself is crystalline in structure.
Quartz crystals can take thousands to millions of years to form as they go through the Earth’s processes such as magma cooling. The crystals we see store those frequencies and vibrations of the Earth, making them inherently grounding for us to hold and work with. These crystals formed from dark magma into a clear perfected form which points to their clarification properties. These properties of grounding and clarification make quartz a good choice for assisting in cleaning and cleansing the home.
In healing modalities clear quartz is referred to as a master crystal and an amplifier and generator for all energies.
What is neat about that is how clear quartz is used in modern technology for practical applications from timekeeping to electronics.
Quartz exhibits piezoelectric properties. It generates an electrical voltage when subjected to mechanical stress and vibrates at a precise frequency. Quartz crystal oscillators produce a stable, constant frequency. They are used in timekeeping devices to provide an accurate time measurement.
Quartz crystals are used in radio frequency filters; essential components in mobile phones, GPS, and radios. These filters process specific frequencies for clear and reliable communication.
Quartz is used in computer components such as microprocessors and memory chips. Their piezoelectric properties are ideal for generating accurate data processing.
The piezoelectric properties of quartz make it a good choice for pressure sensors in automotive and aerospace equipment.
Quartz crystals are used in ultrasound devices, where they generate and detect high-frequency sound waves for diagnostic purposes.
Mineral infusions can be made in the same way the properties of plants can be extracted for our use and health benefits. What they connect to us is the subtle energy of the Earth. By having gone through a process of crystallization underground, their life has been much longer than ours and the effect they have on us is gentle and profound. They are gifts from Earth and can inspire us to give back generously.
