Octahedron Platonic Solid Crystal - Clear Quartz "Extra" quality - This cut and polished Octahedron crystal made from extra high quality Clear Quartz Crystal from Brazil. The Octahedron can be described as being made up of two square-based pyramids, placed base to base. It can be found in the natural formations of Fluorite crystals. It can be used as a meditation aid, either by holding it in the palm of your hand and/or by studying it and projecting the self into the crystal. Plato assigned the Octahedron to represent the element of air, and it is said to help with cleansing and detoxification. The Octahedron is a polyhedron, made up of eight equilateral triangles that are arranged around a single point, with six vertices, eight faces, and twelve edges.
Note: The proportions for our sacred geometry crystals are not exact. Please see the pictures on this page to see the slightly different shapes.
The Octahedron is the third most simplest solid that can be created in 3D from the same equilateral, equiangular polygons, and is one of the Platonic Solids, as defined by Plato over 2300 years ago (427-347BC). Platonic Solids are all of the three-dimensional solid shapes that you can create using faces that are identical regular polygons. These Platonic Solid shapes are also known as three-dimensional polytopes, and are said to carry the Sacred Geometry that is believed to be the secret language of the Universe.
Extremely popular metaphysically, Clear Quartz is known as the "Master Healer", with its very high vibration, and is the most versatile healing stone among all crystals. Quartz is said to be the most powerful healing stone of the mineral kingdom, able to work on any condition. Clear Quartz is also known as the "Stone of Power" and amplifies any energy or intention. Clear Quartz is said to protect against negativity, attune to your higher self, and relieve pain. This extra, high quality Clear Quartz, amplifies the Sacred Geometry energies within these Octahedrons, making them ideal for all kinds of spiritual work.
Sacred Geometry is found in nature, in art, and in ancient civilizations. It can be seen in crop circles, classic art, prayer wheels, mandalas, and DNA. It is found in the grand design of the cosmos (as evidenced by the relationships between the planets in our own solar system) and is thought by many to be the language of the Creator. Some scientists theorize that Sacred Geometry is proof of a holographic universe. Connecting with Sacred Geometry is said to wake up the sleeping memory of our true, infinite selves.
Many people believe that enlightenment can be achieved through the study of Sacred Geometry. Looking at any of the endless examples of Sacred Geometry in existence can resonate with one's deeper self, bringing about new patterns of thought and a deep knowing of the perfection and cohesion of the Universe. By meditating with any or all of the Platonic Solids, one can form a deep connection with the nature of our universe, and easily find ways to incorporate this new knowledge into daily life. The Sacred Geometry of these cuts combined with the Sacred Geometry inherent in the Quartz crystalline formation creates quite a powerful metaphysical piece!
