Here is one gorgeous Smoky Garden Quartz Cluster. The smoky points are nice with great clarity. The inclusions of kaolinite and other minerals is fascinating as the alternative name is that of a lodilite cluster. If you put it on a shelf it looks very nice to look at so I have included a stand so it can sit upright.

There is much to discover. It has NOT been treated in anyway – this is its natural colour. Treatments on smoky quartz has become a big problem since 2015.

With the huge number of mini points at its base, I see it as a wonderful crystal for manifesting your future with your partner – romantic or business.

The broken main point has been regrowing in elestial formation.

I mainly intuit this smoky quartz to ground all those thoughts in an “in the mind” personality like me. I see it as rooting rather than just grounding your energy. And therefore they can relax, be more level-headed, and receive new ideas. So with a fresher mind, it is going to brighten you day! Said also the be detoxifying on all levels this then prompts elimination of the digestive system.

The garden aspect is that it is a great stone to use if you are planning any type of Shamanic journey as a great companion for those who seek greater spiritual insight. It assists deep karmic healing related to past lives It has a very soothing vibration and it is helpful for manifestation.

Doing a lot of study or life experience learning it  may be your best friend to ground it into the practical.

The join between the points at the base are delicate so will not suit a lot of handling.

This smoky garden quartz cluster is just as likely to go to a geological collector as a metaphysical buyer.

Shamarah's Insights

I know when I have a thinker in the shop when I intuit smoky quartz. Most are the "intellectual" even if working spiritual and/or are someone going through a lot of change in their mental thinking/perspectives/beliefs, and all that lovely thinking is create a lot of head energy and no room for more to come in. So smoky quartz brings that "ah ha" energy down and anchors it into the person roots (below the Earth Star Chakra). So now that they are re-balanced energeticallly, they are ready to take on more mental insights, information, etc. They are studying, or spending a lot of time in their heads over various matters and smoky quartz is to pull all that lovely energy down from the mind / the mental body and anchor it into the Earth. That way the person can the "walk the talk" e.g. of new spiritual insights and not just keep thinking about it. Or a whole lot of new energy can come in as the mental body has been cleared to receive more and you are no longer feeling unbalanced or tired.

Geological Properties

Geological Information of Smoky Quartz

Geological Identification

• It is a brown or grey coloured variety of Quartz.
• The smoky colour results from free silicon and aluminium naturally irradiated.

Special Notes

• Most people know the brown variety. But geologically there is also grey smoky quartz
• Unfortunately more and more quartz is being artificially gamma irradiated. You will only know by being suspicious as to the mine it came from or the matrix of minerals with it e.g. be careful of cheap smoky quartz from the USA or China - usually looks unusually dark and opaque. 2018 update
  • Even Brazil is now radiating their smoky quartz and doing a good job of it. Graham and I couldn't tell the difference but thankfully the suppliers were honest and we avoided getting caught.
  • Customer advised that he bought irradiated smoky quartz and that the colour faded within a year.
• Note: Morian Quartz is a very dark natural quartz.
