![]() Stone of the Universal Light Matrix Crystal Therapy Andara is a New Age crystal formation, which is here to assist us to move beyond time barriers, through interdimensional vectors and integrate with future forms Andara is unique as it is the result of monatomic metallic elements that are found naturally in the Etherium powders heated to high temperatures. This process not only transmutes the Etherium powders, but refines the monatomic metallic metals and enhances their exotic properties. Testing has shown that Andara crystal glass resonates at the high frequency of the exotic matter they were created from. The vibration is so high within the stone that it never needs to be cleansed because it only holds love and does not absorb negativity as it instantly transforms it. For this reason it serves as an amazing tool to heal the heart. Monatomic Andara crystal is one of the master crystals, a healer and a powerful tool for: (1) increasing awareness and vibration to access universal knowledge; (2) cleaning and balancing chakras; (3) activates one’s energy-channeling ability; (4) accelerates the spiritual development process, and (5) aids you to manifest the life chooses. |

The use of the manifestation crystal requires the inner knowledge that one is a clear and perfect channel, that a pure white light provides the guiding way, and that the purity of the Divine is within the inner self.
If there is something which one wishes to manifest, the relevant questions are: "Do I really want this?" - "Are there reasons that I may not want this?" If parts of a person do not want something, the crystal will not facilitate manifestation because it is receiving mixed messages. One must clear any feelings of ambivalence and inner turmoil prior to using this crystal.

![]() "Metamorphosis" Quartz exhibits a back-lit opalescence which brings a "halo" to the mineral and has been used to automatically increase the range, the clarity, and the strength of ones aura. It has also assisted one in seeing the aura of others. It has performed as a spectrograph on the auric plane, bringing the entire spectrum into view. "THE" STONE OF TRANSFORMATION This mineral is known as "THE stone of transformation", supporting the amplification of energy required for same. It assists one in replacing negative attitudes with positive direction and has been used as a mainstay and a foundation for one during changes. The mineral serves to prepare one for transformation, permitting the recognition of the obscure layers of "self-justification" which support the continuity of state of distress and dis-ease. It further assists one in releasing this justification; hence, reducing or eliminating the effects. HELPS IN ACTUALIZING FULL POTENTIAL It helps one to understand that any and all power is personal power and that in order to actualize ones full potential, personal action is required. It is truly a mineral to assist one in initiating and in persisting in changes, further supporting one during the process. It has been used to direct one through the changes required to attain orderly situations while smoothing the state of change and dispensing a supplemental physical stamina and mental awareness to the user. ASSISTS IN INTIMACY & HEALING ON ALL LEVELS "Metamorphosis" Quartz has been used to assist one in intimacy. When one is preoccupied with outdated morality, it brings the energy to follow ones feelings (even if they change from day to day, hour to hour). It does not initiate immorality, but helps one to feel a commonality with being a part of life. It helps one to recognize that "if it feels good", and it hurts no one (including the self), then one can do whatever it is and can enhance the self by "doing" and by "being". The mineral is one for healing the self, on all levels. (channeled by Melody) |

![]() Sometimes spelled Mookite, or just called Mook Jasper A colorful Jasper from Western Australia. It is a warm flood of reds, yellows and browns. It is formed as a sediment in erosion zones and as a filler in cracks. In Australia, Mookaite is considered to be a healing stone that bestows strength. It is said to shield the wearer from difficult situations and to connect us to loved ones who have passed away. Mookaite is named for where is was first found — in outcrops, principally on Mooka Station (a sheep farm of around 700,000 acres), on the west side of the Kennedy Range in Western Australia. According to locals, the Aboriginal word "mooka" means "running waters", no doubt in reference to the many fresh water springs that feed Mooka Creek. Mookaite is said to help counter the effects of aging! This gemstone is believed to bring us into the "here and now," aiding with problem assessment and decision making.

![]() Nirvana Quartz™ is newly available to our world, although it has been under the glacier ice found at altitudes of 18,000 ft. for eons. In 2004, due to glacier melt, some crystals were exposed and residents of this rugged, mountainous country began gently harvesting the uniquely shaped quartz and offering it to the world marketplace. This amazing quartz has properties rarely found in quartz, including a special, flat termination; a fascinating surface texture due to growth interference; and an abundance of trigonics (inward, downward shaped triangles) on the faces. Plus, the presence of hematite gives a lovely pink color to a lot of the crystals, and even the clear pieces resemble a piece or ice. Nirvana Quartz™ is found in the Kullu Valley in the Himalayas of India, in the very place said to be the location of the mystical Shamballa. Undisturbed since ancient times, the crystals seem to have absorbed all of the teachings Mother Earth has to offer. Now, with the earth changes and glacial melt, these crystals are ready to give their knowledge to humanity and are seeking the individuals ready to receive it. The knowledge and vibrations that they offer is varied and complex, so each crystal has very particular and unique gifts. Nirvana Quartz™ is a gift from the cosmos to the peoples of the world, offering a pathway towards the highest and best future for the world. If you are drawn to a piece of this wondrous stone, you are being invited by the cosmos to participate in the creation of the future. The white provides deeper connection to the Divine by enhancing your Higher Self connection, and the pink forges a deeper connection with the higher heart and all the vibrations of love that express in both heaven and earth: meditate with a single piece, or a pair of pieces (one in each color) to discover and understand your role in this dynamic unfolding of the future.
