What are Vogels?
Vogel Cut Crystals function as energy converters, transmuting the energy we release through our hands, and guide with our conscious mind and breath. This harmonization interacts with the subtle energy of our bodies. The resulting alignment helps to clarify, amplify, and direct your intentions.
Choosing a Vogel Cut Crystal will depend on the functions you intend to use it for, and matching the most appropriate size, number of sides, and type of source crystal for you. Vogel Cut Crystals are crafted using precise angles of symmetry. The length of each Vogel is cut along the crystal’s axis of growth for coherent energy direction. Each tip focuses energy and generates an expanded field for optimal resonance.
Because flawless and near-flawless quartz is rare and expensive, we use as much of the original material as possible. Our natural cut Vogel Crystals have been carefully handled and crafted with the highest intentions for each Vogel Guardian. Your relationship and your ability to attune with the crystal deepens with your practice over time.
The main factors that influence a Vogel are:

Natural versus Lab Grown Quartz
Quartz can store both energy and information. Natural Quartz is about 100 millions years old, and is like a memory chip of the Earth. As a record keeper, Natural Quartz can tap into Galactic rhythms and historic planetary cycles. Because it contains both Earth and Cosmic memories, Natural Quartz can stimulate our innate wisdom. Natural Quartz Vogels are particularly useful for channeling, co-creating with the elemental forces, and communication with the unseen.
Flawless Lab-Grown Quartz is a blank slate, like a hard drive that has not yet been loaded. The advantage to using a Lab-Grown Quartz Vogel is that you can program a specific intention with very little history or interference that may exist in a Natural Quartz crystal. Lab-Grown Quartz has piezoelectric pulse and is grown in a controlled environment to ensure the energy field is pure, true, and straight with coherent energy. Lab Quartz Vogels are adept at energy extractions, amplification, and programming.
Cleaning & Clearing Your Vogel
Crystals can pick up energetic information from the environment. When it is tuned to a specific function, like healings or extractions, they will most certainly pick up energies that should be cleared. Two primary ingredients to clearing are:
1) Your Intention, and
2) One or more Elemental Force (Air, Water, Earth, Fire, Ether/Spirit)
With a meditative or ritualistic resonance, this process clears any other programs. Focus your awareness to clear the crystal. This process helps to link your crystal with your subconscious, unconscious, or with any unseen assistance. Bring in an element such as earth. You can bury the crystal, place it on an alter in sand, or right on the grass, near a plant, whatever feels right or comes up for you through your subconscious communication/intuition. Say whatever words or phrases come to mind, sing or play music… be creative and open to discovery. If you use fire or water, do not allow the crystal to be exposed to a quick and sudden temperature change of cold or hot. It may crack the crystal. Consult the crystal and utilize your intuitive resources first.
Connecting with the Unseen
Quartz has been used in all kinds of timepieces and communication technologies, and has become an integral component of the information age. Quartz Vogels can be activated to assist in communing with your Higher Self and your team of spirit guides. This can be a helpful tool for strengthening your telepathic communication with these non-physical beings, as well as aspects of your own soul and consciousness.
Advancing Your Spiritual Journey
Spiritual Practice requires the cultivation of different states of awareness to propel the evolution of your life and soul. Meditating with your Vogel Crystal can help you to attain and maintain these resonances, opening your mind to receiving clear and relevant insights. The more you execise these psychic skills with your Vogel, the more adept and fine tuned you and your crystal become; aligning these resonant energies and deepening the magic of your experiences.
