Indigo Aura, also called Tanzan Aura or Tanzine Aura, is similar to Tanzanite in its metaphysical properties.  A high vibrational stone, Indigo Aura works well with the Throat, Third Eye, and Crown Chakras, and helps you to communicate any psychic visions or dreams you might experience with this stone.  A spiritual stone, Indigo Aura Quartz is helpful in recognizing the Christ consciousness within.  Indigo Aura Quartz aids in communications with the spiritual realms (guides, angels, guardians) and can be used to access information from the Hall of Records.  The Gold and Indium in Indigo Aura allows one to significantly raise their vibrations, allowing them to release negativity.  Carrying Indigo Aura (Tanzan Aura) Quartz in your pocket can help when encountering situations loaded with negative vibrations.

Indigo Aura (Tanzan Aura) is created when Clear Quartz crystals are super-heated in a vacuum and infused with vaporized Gold & Indium.  Indigo Aura and Champagne Aura both contain Gold and Indium, however, due to a slightly different process, a different color and vibration is created.  The precious metals condense onto the surface of the quartz crystal to form a permanent bond with the lattice of the quartz.  By combining the vibrations of Quartz with Gold and Indium, a synthesis of unique vibrations is created.  Indigo Aura (Tanzan Aura) is wonderful for meditation and healing work.

Editors Note: We feel that lab enhanced stones can be effective for transmitting healing energy. Heat treating or enhancing a crystal in a lab does change the vibration, but it does not eliminate or reduce the potential healing effect.
