Spirit Quartz / Cactus Quartz is a quartz habit which is 100% unique to the Boekenhouthoek deposits of South Africa. Since its discovery specimens have always been a highly sought after community out of the South African soils! Younger deposits had exceptional dark intense colour with more recent deposits being lighter in colour and some sections producing mixed amethyst and citrine like colouration, hence aptly named ametrine spirit quartz. Unfortunately, amethyst spirit quartz only represents 1% of the deposits mined. The bulk of Spirit Quartz is in fact "white" with some subtle variations in colour. Present day excavations produce Amethyst material which ranges from very pale lilac to a darker tone of purple, else plate-like specimens with richer more classic old school colour intensity but without the traditional habit.
This crystal’s energy works towards grounding the physical body while also engaging and releasing your true inner spirit. We can easily release bad vibrations when we allow ourselves to connect to Spirit Quartz and its protective energies. An etheric shield is naturally placed around your being as a defensive mechanism to help heal you during times of dire growth.
