Tourmalinated Quartz Meaning
The Significance of Tourmalinated Quartz If you desire to attract good fortune, invulnerability, and that oh-so-coveted sense of being anchored in the world, then you should surround yourself with Tourmalinated Quartz. It is unlike any other stone in its tumbling-close combination of protective and healing properties. Tourmalinated Quartz is Clear Quartz with included Black Tourmaline. They work together in this crystal.
Tourmalinated Quartz Metaphysical Properties & Benefits
Tourmalinated quartz is the ultimate healing crystal for bringing balance and protection into your life. If the vibrations of either of the combined stones (clear quartz or black tourmaline) are good, then putting them together should make an even better combination. That’s what tourmalinated quartz is, vibrationally speaking, an even better combination of clear quartz and black tourmaline. When you look at this stone, you can actually see its dynamic harmony of these two types of energy. It’s rare to find a stone that actually preserves the arrangement of such different molecules. If you want to call upon the most cleansing, energy-purifying, and negative-vibe-eradicating stone, then it has to be tourmalinated quartz.
The Associations of Tourmalinated Quartz with Zodiac Signs
Tourmalinated Quartz has a profound connection with the sign of Scorpio. It embodies the energy of transformation, which is a key to unlocking the Scorpio’s intense emotional world. Tourmalinated Quartz is a rare and powerful crystal. Its high vibrations can push a Scorpio through life’s intensity, enable them to surf on the transformational waves of existence, and come out on the other side as the Scorpios do—more powerful and liberated.
Scorpio is the sign that governs the most profound and radical transformations. Its energy is akin to that of the phoenix that rises from the ashes or to that of a butterfly that emerges from its cocoon. When one thinks of Scorpio, one should also picture intensity.
How to Employ Tourmalinated Quartz
In Meditation: Attaining Tranquility and Energy Purification
Tourmalinated Quartz is the ideal companion for attaining your regular quota of relaxation and tranquility! When you focus with a Tourmalinated Quartz Palmstone, not only will it bring you lunar levels of serenity and joy, but it will also absorb any negative energy in your space. All you have to do is set aside 30 minutes of your day to be still, to be mindful, and to take substantial breaths that stretch your diaphragm and upper lungs. As you inhale, feel the energies that Tourmalinated Quartz emits filling your soul and radiating throughout your body. On the exhales, send out any and all negative energy that has been hanging around too long—it’s not welcome anymore. And know that Tourmalinated Quartz is taking it all in, transmuting it, and sending it back out to you in a purified state.
How to Wear Tourmalinated Quartz Jewelry
Tourmalinated Quartz jewelry provides a conduit for the crystal’s energy to flow and connect with you as you’re wearing it, almost like an amulet. You don’t have to believe or know anything about Tourmalinated Quartz for it to affect you. It’s still going to form a harmonious union with your energy field.
Wear a Tourmalinated Quartz pendant, sturdy lightweight necklace, or chain in such a way that the pendant hangs near your heart. It performs best as an amulet when worn near the heart, or, if you hang it higher up, have it near your collarbone and neck, where it can also be close to your ears and head. If you need good luck, wear a Tourmalinated Quartz bracelet. Do it on your left, and you’ve done it right, on the hand anyway that for you is “non-dominant.” Carry a Tourmalinated Quartz tumbled stone in your pocket, or hand, to your chest if you need it, and you’re in the vicinity to either do that which is good or to achieve negative energy release and return to balance.
In the Home: Creating a Harmonious Energy Space
A Tourmalinated Quartz tower is a good choice for a protective and cleansing stone to place in your home or work environment. It is thought to be an excellent stone for the center of the home because it gives off harmonious and balancing energy. You could also place a Tourmalinated Quartz tower in your office or home office, where it could help counteract the electromagnetic frequency (EMF) radiation that computers and other electronic devices give off.
Cleansing Tourmalinated Quartz
Tourmalinated quartz absorbs negative energy, so if you’re wearing it or have just used it, it’s crucial to cleanse the stone. When it’s not being worn or used, I typically cleanse the stone once a week or whenever it seems to be accumulating too much energy. My personal favorite method is to hold the stone under running water, which is safe for the quartz (it’s rated 7 on the Mohs hardness scale, after all). I also like to use smoke from my preferred plant allies, and I’m a HUGE fan of sound healing because I think it’s a really effective way to shift the energy of a space or object. If you like other methods, you can also use them: placing the stone in soil; under a full moon; or just in a space where you like to concentrate the sound of your voice should do the trick.
Geology of Tourmalinated Quartz
The geology of tourmalinated quartz is fascinating. Tourmalinated quartz is a quartz crystal that contains intergrown needles of black tourmaline. The formation of tourmalinated quartz occurs when liquid quartz and tourmaline come together at high temperatures and pressures. The two minerals mix well under these conditions. But as the temperature and pressure decrease, the two minerals try to separate from each other. In the process, they manage to get a little confused, and they “trap” the tourmaline inside the quartz crystal. All forms of quartz, including the ones that have tourmaline inside them, rate a 7 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness. That means quartz and tourmalinated quartz can scratch your window glass. Most of the tourmalinated quartz that gets made into jewelry comes from Brazil, but you can find deposits of the mineral in Ethiopia, India, and Tanzania as well.
