Ametrine scepter phantom (118268)

Ametrine is a crystal of rare beauty.

True Ametrine only comes from one source the Anahi Mine in Bolivia it occurs in veins in a dolomitic limestone. The color zones visible within Ametrine are referred to as sectoral zoning. They are the result of 2 different factors: One is differing oxidation states of iron which occur inside the crystal due to temperature differences across the crystal during its formation. The second is the selective distribution of the naturally occurring iron coloring agent in the different zones of growth.

It is a natural occurance or marriage of Amethyst and Citrine - when left unpolished there are natural etchings all over the surfaces. There is a play of colour as the rich royal purple and golden tones merge into one another.
For me, Ametrine it a powerful meditational stone reminding us of our natural spiritual powers. A powerful teacher guiding us along the path of reclaiming our power without needing to oppress other people. Ametrine has stepped forwards at this time to assist in our unfolding journey to ascensional awareness.

Phantoms are crystal planes and memories of previous crystalline growth within a quartz. Deep within the crystal itself you will see these solid phantoms like shadows and subtle outlines of crystal growth which have grown first and then stopped. The crystal has then resumed its crystallization process, enclosing the previous crystal growth as a phantom outline within itself. Phantoms are powerful aids for past life work, healing, rejuvenation and regression.
I associate phantoms with Egypt, Lemuria and Atlantis. There is something about the pyramidal forms inside which remind me of initiations and sacred ceremonies inside the ancient temples.

Scepter quartz is recognized as a crystal which has formed over the top or around another crystal thereby forming what appears to be a rod. It is said to be the same shape as the one used by Priestesses and Priests in Atlantis and Lemuria in manifestation rituals. For those drawn, it can be that these crystals reflect deep memory patterns where we knew how to co-create with ease and authority - with a deep inner connection to Source.
