Known as a grounding stone, Smoky Quartz is one of the supreme crystals to connect us to Mother Earth and her grounding and purifying energies. Use it to help bring your wants, dreams and desires into reality. Smoky Quartz can become one of the most powerful manifesting tools you own.

Known as a grounding stone, Smoky Quartz is one of the supreme crystals to connect us to Mother Earth and her grounding and purifying energies. It acts as an anchor and opens the Earth Star chakra, Root chakra and Solar Plexus chakra for balance, stability and security. Smoky Quartz has been naturally radiated to a very light to dark brown deep within the Earth. If it is so dark you can't see through it, it has most likely been artificially irradiated. Because of the radiation, it is not a crystal suitable for a crystal essence or elixir when used with the direct method.

It was known as the Stone of Power and was used by ancient Druids and Shamans throughout history. It is the national stone of Scotland, found in their Cairngorm Mountains and now used in Scottish jewellery and talismens.

When concerned for the environment, work with Smoky Quartz in crystal layouts for healing and eliminating toxins on all levels, replacing it with positive energy. It will block geopathic stress and any electromagnetic smog given off by electronics and power lines near your home.

If you are going through challenging situations or have negative thoughts or negativity in your environment, Smoky Quartz helps by dispersing fear, negativity, depression, panic attacks, anxiety, stress and psychic attacks or ill-wishing. It then helps you manifest the strength needed to overcome these adversities, promoting positive thoughts, transforming any negativity to positive, offering a sense of security, emotional rebalancing and restoring calm to the spirit.

If you're feeling a bit down, pick a piece up, you'll start feeling better almost right away. 

Smoky Quartz purifies any space it is placed in and purifies the aura when carried, worn or run over the body. It is a stone of deep protection and healing. It’s like the crystal version of your best friend.

Use it to help bring your wants, dreams and desires into reality. Smoky Quartz can become one of the most powerful manifesting tools you own, but you must learn to put yourself first and focus on your own goals. With its transformative energies is can help you push your life in a new direction or the direction you are wanting to go.

Smoky Quartz pairs well with other grounding stones like Black Tourmaline, Black Obsidian, Black Kyanite, Lodestone, Hematite, etc. Pair it with Epidote to expand your manifesting ability. For spiritual transformation and ascension pair it with Moldavite.

By placing it in your home or work area, it will help filter out unspoken resentments, bullying, hostility or gossip, that drain your energy and strength, leaving your space calm and safe. Working with this crystal helps you go at your own pace, whether it is taking things slow or wanting to go at warp speed. There is no right or wrong way, just your way.

If you are taking any kind of medication, even vitamins, place a piece with your medication and wear a Smoky Quartz bracelet on your left wrist. It will help your body to assimilate vitamins and medication better.

Smoky Quartz is one of those crystals that has been underrated and misunderstood. It helps with a whole plethora of issues as it is not just a grounding tool. It is like the crystal version of your best friend and a must have in your crystal toolbox.
