This is a Brazilian SUPER 7 obelisk. Also known as "Sacred 7", or "Melody's Stone". Also can be used as a mini-wand. Shown next to a US quarter coin for size comparison. Super 7 specimens retain the properties of 7 minerals - Quartz, Amethyst, Smokey Quartz, Rutiles, Goethite, Lepidocrocite, and Cacoxenite (even when the specimen does not visibly show all 7 minerals.) Nice colors and patterns in this one, especially the Chevron banding, and it stands upright on its own beautifully. Small shimmery areas catch the light as you move the stone around in your hands. It is very energetic! Great for use in a crystal grid, sacred arrangement, or as an interesting display piece.
This piece has been polished. Tiny organic spots here and there are still present from inclusions that are within the crystal, and can be found around flat faces, edges, or points/corners. ALL inclusions come from 100% natural formations in the crystal. The photos do not do this piece justice, it is much nicer 'in person'. I guarantee it! Check out how it works with subtle energies below.
It weighs about 2.4oz and measures approx. 3 3/16" inches tall X 3/4" inch wide at the widest point (the base). Code-121224-S7-37
Super Seven, aka Melody's Stone or Sacred Seven Amethyst often looks like amethyst that has some unusual coloration. The crystal forms near varying amounts of minerals and other crystals, namely a combination of amethyst, smoky quartz, clear quartz, rutile, goethite, lepidolite and cacoxenite.
Each piece retains the properties of the entire combination as the energies of each are thought to be present, even if a particular piece does include all seven minerals, since they formed in close proximity to ones another. It's also reputed to amplify and enhance various types of psychic abilities, and supports the opening of one's Third Eye. It felt to be a powerful crystal, and is excellent to use in meditation.
