And in Ancient Egypt, Clear Quartz crystal was used to construct monuments as it was believed to channel the energy from the planetary system. In South America, native cultures thought Clear Quartz crystal skulls held their ancestors’ spirits. This may be where the crystal ball originated! European clairvoyants in the middle ages used crystal balls made of Clear Quartz, as they were said to assist in predicting the future. The term “quartz” comes from the Greek word for “ice.” Ancient Greek philosophers like Theophrastus believed that the transparent stone was a form of permanent ice, so cold, it kept from thawing. Because Clear Quartz is such a worldly crystal, cultures from around the world have their own mythology related to this stone.
