3″ Black Phantom Lemurian Quartz Crystal Point 1.5 Oz

This Lemurian weighs 1.5 Oz and measures 3 x 1 x .75″. From the Alegre mine in Bahia, Brazil.

This Lemurian point features distinct black phantom layers at the point, and some black inclusions near the base. This point has beautiful clarity and ladder-like striations along the sides, as well as large key imprints left by the growth of neighboring crystals around the base. A newer find, not many Black Phantom Lemurians are found on the market and I am honored to include them in our shop offerings. Deposits of black tourmaline, carbon, and possibly chlorite are deposited during an interruption in the growth of the Lemurian crystal. The crystal grows around these deposits, and the phantom is left within. Black Phantom Quartz Crystals are very unique, and are said to be quite powerful. Lemurian crystals present a distinct tapered shape and horizontal ladder striation climbing the sides, as seen in this point. So named after the legend of Lemuria, these crystals have an interesting lore. For more information, see our blog post HERE or read below.

The Lemurian Legend: The Legend of Lemuria describes an ancient civilization that existed around the same time as Atlantis. These ancient people were highly evolved and very spiritual, said to be aligned with “the source of all”. Their holy people began receiving information that Earth would soon go through a very dramatic cleansing. This was the Great Flood, also known as the destruction of Atlantis. They felt it was very important that knowledge from Lemuria be preserved. One of the ways they did this was in crystals. These information crystals known as Lemurian seed crystals were taken deep within the earth to be stored and preserved, to come forth at a time when the world was ready to receive them. The famous crystal author, Katrina Raphaell, coined the term “Lemurian Crystal” in Feb 2000, introducing it in one of her newsletters. She was referring to a new discovery of quartz found in the Diamantina region (southeast of Brazil), presenting with very distinct horizontal ladder striations along the length of the crystals, and a distinct laser-type shape and exceptional clarity. Since that time, crystals with these same striations and form have also been found in areas of the Himalayas, Zambia, Russia, and even the USA. Some maintain that Lemurians only come from the original find in Brazil. However, some scholars believe that before their land was lost, some of the Lemurian people fled to neighboring countries – Tibet, Himalayas, India, Asia, etc. And indeed, Lemurian-like crystals have been found in many of these locales.
