Utterly gorgeous Garden Quartz 💚💚💚

I first came across tumblestones like these many years ago. They were called Garden Quartz and no one was particularly interested in them because they weren’t clear! I absolutely loved them, but then I do love crystals with inclusions and lots of personality.

In recent years they have become more popular – as have many previously ignored crystals in the search for new things to sell. And they now have lots of names!
Inclusion Quartz – accurate since it is Quartz with inclusions, including Hematite, Feldspar, Chlorite.
Landscape or Scenic Quartz – describe the patterns that often look like mini landscapes or scenes
Lodolite, Lodelite, Lodalite – though ending in ‘ite’ there isn’t actually a mineral called Lodolite (as far as I am aware) and I believe the word come from the Greek for muddy stone.

These crystals can have inclusions of green, red, pink, brown. To me they are a higher frequency of Moss Agate, and like Moss Agate, help us to connect with Nature at a spiritual level. Of course, Nature is not separate from us – we are Nature – and Garden Quartz reminds us of our place within the whole.

I think that Tree Agate, Moss Agate and Garden Quartz are similar, with each having a different frequency of the same energy. Tree Agate is the most grounded – not heavy at all, but mentally, emotionally and spiritually reminding us that we are of Earth.
