Novaculite
Novaculite is a microcrystalline variety of Quartz, which has been used for sharpening knives and other tools. Its name derives from a Latin word meaning 'razor' or 'sharp knife'. Although its appearance is rather plain, we found its energetic qualities to be most unusual. Novaculite is a powerful stone for stimulating the upper chakras. Its pulsations come at a slower rate than those of Phenacite or Azeztulite, but they are very powerful, and they grow in intensity the longer you hold the stone. More remarkably, the effects linger for quite some time after you stop! After just a few moments of holding a pair of Novaculites at my third eye and crown chakras, I found my entire head was tingling, inside and out, and the feeling continued more over half an hour after I put the stones down.
