Clear Quartz

Clear Quartz is the skeleton key of the mineral world, a transparent lattice of silicon and oxygen that seems to capture the essence of light itself. In ancient myths it was believed to be water frozen so hard that it could never melt; today we know it forms deep within the Earth when silica-rich fluids cool slowly and crystallise into six-sided prisms. Clear Quartz acts like a lens, magnifying intention and bringing clarity to thought. It is both ancient and modern, used in prehistoric tools and contemporary electronics, reminding us that pure, simple structures can encode immense complexity.
