[![What are Vogel 100% clear quartz extraction crystals?](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0871/8263/9451/files/sacred-essence-vogel-36-sided-100-clear-lab-quartz-double-terminated-extraction-healing-crystal-standard-medium-p2752-8314_medium.jpg)](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0871/8263/9451/files/sacred-essence-vogel-36-sided-100-clear-lab-quartz-double-terminated-extraction-healing-crystal-standard-medium-p2752-8314_medium.jpg) The Vogel crystal, named after its creator, Marcel Vogel, have gained popularity in recent years for their intricate faceting and their association with spiritual and emotional well-being. In the 1970s, Vogel developed a method for cutting quartz crystals with precision, creating a unique faceted shape that became synonymous with his name. The design features a series of carefully cut facets that are believed to enhance the crystal's ability to harness and transmit energy. Vogel crystals are popular tools in energy healing, meditation, in particular shamanic journeying and spiritual cleansing practices. Many individuals who work with these crystals claim enhanced clarity, heightened intuition, and a deeper connection to their inner selves. ## **100% clear quartz extraction crystals** So, lets talk more about how Vogel crystals are made, as there are many misconceptions. All the crystals we provide are either naturally grown, in the earth or Laboratory controlled grown (AAA) grade crystal. Both of which are hand cut and clear and inclusion free. The specific cut consists of a terminally faceted end and alternating facets along the sides. The terminally faceted end is often pointed, resembling a double-terminated crystal wand, while the sides are cut in a precise manner to optimize the crystal's energy flow. Whilst Natural earth sourced quartz is generally preferred, the cost is high and the waste is great due to the other minerals and matter that deposits in and around it. Finding Natural high-quality quartz is getting harder, and whilst many have a preference for natural we have found LAB quartz to at least equal the natural formed crystal rock quartz. Impurities are just not present in the LAB quartz. ## What is a LAB grown Vogel crystal? Lab grown healing crystals are formed in a controlled environment, off what is classed as a lifeline (seed). The quartz either side and around the lifeline grows and at specific given size it is harvested. Due to the way it was naturally grown in a LAB environment there are no impurities within it, and it can be cut directly without re-cutting so waste is kept at a minimum. ## Uses of Vogel crystals: 1. **Energy Amplification:** The precise formation of Vogel crystals is believed to amplify and focus energy, making them potent tools for energy workers and healers. 2. **Chakra Alignment:** Many practitioners use Vogel crystals to align and balance the body's energy and chakras, promoting overall well-being. 3. **Intuition and Spiritual Connection:** The unique design of Vogel crystals is thought to enhance psychic abilities and spiritual insight, aiding individuals in their spiritual journey. 4. **Emotional Healing:** Some users claim that Vogel crystals assist in releasing emotional blockages and promoting emotional healing, facilitating a sense of peace and harmony.

Clear quartz natural 100% is more costly, whilst the lab grown crystals are a more cost-effective option. Both natural and Lab grown crystals can conduct, hold, and discharge energy. Individuals that choose a crystal for their shamanic training use it as a key tool to learn and use and find themselves in their west work. Deep emotional connections come up for many. If you are training and learning for yourself then one crystal is sufficient. However, if you are a therapist then you will purchase crystals for many various intentions, to make your work easier. The Four Winds Society has a specific requirement, and recomend us to students and graduates. ## How many sides to your vogel crystal? How many sides to a crystal is a big topic of discussion. Whilst [**8 sides**](https://www.sacredessence.co.uk/vogel-8-sided-100-clear-lab-quartz-double-terminated-extraction-healing-crystal-standard-medium-p4414) is said to bridge the ordinary to non-ordinary worlds and then between the physical and emotional aspects of the soul and beyond, many moved to the most popular [**13 sided crystals**](https://www.sacredessence.co.uk/sacred-essence-vogel-13-sided-100-clear-lab-quartz-double-terminated-extraction-healing-crystal-standard-large-p1002) for healing and extraction work. (This is, the balancing, removing and restoring of an indviduals energy body). 13-sided crystals are considered as workhorses of the healing world. They help to bridge and look much deeper into the physiological and emotional worlds. They work exceptionally well with difficult healings. We noticed a trend change that could coincide with the magical number 13: 13 Moons, Mayans consider 13 to be Ascension, The hidden One - 13 Apostles! etc. [**36-sided crystals**](https://www.sacredessence.co.uk/sacred-essence-vogel-36-sided-100-clear-lab-quartz-double-terminated-extraction-healing-crystal-standard-medium-p2752) are extremely powerful.
