For literally thousands of years the crystal has fascinated
people and been a source of beauty and perceived power. Yet
today, many people look at a crystal and just see a shiny
clear stone much like simple glass. The truth is that since
ancient times people have tried to discover not only the
natural, but the supernatural powers of crystal.

One of the ways that crystals were used in ancient times was
for healing. The medical experts of that time believed that
if you put a crystal over certain points on the body, much
like today's acupuncture, that the crystal had the power to
increase the flow of physical and psychic energies to
whatever part of the body was afflicted.

The crystal was also considered to be able to assist in the
diagnosis of certain illnesses. One ancient emperor would
get a piece of mirror-like crystal and have the patient stand
in front of it with their hands crossed over their heart. Supposedly
the reflection and glow of the crystal would illuminate the
inside of the body, including the bones, and then the doctor
would be able to pinpoint the cause of the illness in order
to prescribe the best treatment.

The Hopi tribe, a highly civilized Native American group
from the Southwestern U.S. also used crystals for medical
purposes. Their medicine man would put the crystals on an
afflicted person and use it to discover any blockage or
obstacle to an individuals physical "currents" so that they
could treat it and heal the individual.

Crystal used in jewelry has a dual purpose. Not only is it
beautiful and diamond-like with its cut and shimmer, but it
is also thought by some to have healing properties. The
belief is that a stone with an even number of cuts creates
positive energy and a stone with an odd number of cuts can
have medical healing properties.

Another function of crystal is to transmit radio waves.
This is possible in its simplest form by using a toy
crystal set. Crystal is known to have value as resonators
and oscillators, both controlling and transmitting
frequencies for telecommunications and radio. This is a
function of crystal that dates back to ancient times.

As modern research moves forward to uncover the multiple
uses of crystal, the findings can be compared to ancient
uses and we realize that we are only scratching the surface
of the many possibilities in which crystal can be used
today. In their simplest functional form, crystals can
store and discharge slight, and can also convert sunlight
directly into energy.

The crystal's beauty is definitely more than skin deep and
may yet prove to be even more valuable than anyone, even in
ancient times had thought. We may have just scratched the
surface.
