The Shard Crystals are flat, broad pieces or slices of quartz which originally formed in layered, plate-like masses rather than the usual hexagonal crystal shape. Often the Shards were sheared off from the original matrix and continued their growth in the unusual shape and sometimes they are even free formed crystals that chose to grow in this unusual pattern.
The Shard configuration is an exceptional tool for chakra clearing and balancing work as they calm and soothe while energizing at the same time. Using the Shard Crystal stimulates and regulates the chakras and one placed over each of the chakras has a balancing and energizing effect that resonates throughout all of the subtle bodies. Their flat wide shape lends itself perfectly to laying on the body and they are often used by crystal healers for crystal healing layouts. Shard crystals are the most versatile members of the crystal clan.
Meditation with the Shard Crystals reminds you that one isn’t required to grow in the normal, expected and “usual” form to have value.
