Rutilated Quartz, a clear or smoky crystal shot through with small golden needles of the mineral rutile, has a high energy charge, which is particularly effective in releasing energy blockages. Thus, it can help to rebalance blockages due to low self-esteem or to the excessive use of personal power. These conditions, as we know, are often connected. Smoky quartz is one of the primary stones to use for manifesting one's dreams, and when it is rutilated its energy multiplies. This is an excellent stone to program for your goals. Pick one up and hold it up in the light. You may become mesmerized by the spider web of gold inside it.
