Golden Healer Quartz, also known as Hematoid Quartz, is one of many types of quartz. Its golden coloring comes from inclusions in the crystal. While clear quartz is made of silicon dioxide, golden healer quartz takes its color from trace amounts of iron present in the crystal. Through the process of weathering, the Iron becomes trapped in the crystal lattice & leaches into existing fracture lines within the crystal. The iron oxide inclusions crystallize in the form of masses, prismatic points, druzy, & needle-like formations. The depth of color depends on the amount of Iron within the Quartz, with specimens ranging from a golden yellow to a dark brown.
In the geology world, it is correctly called Ferruginous Quartz. The term Ferruginous means that it contains iron oxides which are the main makeup of both Hematite and Limotite.
Golden Healer Quartz is a high-vibration crystal & is said to be a master healer, like Gold. It may raise vibrations, amplify intentions, & release blockages present in body & life. The iron not only adds its rich coloring, but is said to increase power, strength, & protection. As its name suggests, it’s a healing crystal that help locate imbalances, as well as the internal causes of suffering.
It is said to calm anger, dissolve negative emotions, promoting compassion & empathy. Golden Healer Quartz helps bring on a state of universal love & awareness.
