The famous Brandberg Crystals come from an area known as Brandberg Mountain (Fire Mountain) in the Goboboseb area, Namibia.
Sources say that the area of the mining operation is almost inaccessible and the crystals are becoming more difficult to find.
The highly prized Brandberg crystals come in a wide variety including amethyst, prehnite, tourmalines and quartz just to name a few!
Brandbergs quartz crystals often have amazing features, including enhydros (water bubbles), Lepidocrocite flecks (iron oxides), amethyst and smokeys, often with phantoms (milky areas that look like pyramids) and of course the fenster amethyst with pyramidial ‘windows’. They also have septres and reverse septres, clusters of clear and amethyst brandbergs too.
Each crystal is pure high vibrational energy, each with the healing properties of quartz (amplification of positive energy), amethyst (calm, peace and activation of third eye chakra), fenster or window (looking within for answers) and enhydro (relates to achieving empathy for others, adaptability, change and metamorphosis of the self).

I am very tempted to keep this one for my collection! It's many beautiful properties include, amethyst, enhydro (water bubble), lepidocrocite flecks/harlequin crystal (iron oxide), hematite spots, two keys (one hexagonal and one on the main face).

KEY CRYSTALS A key crystal has a natural indentation in it. As the name implies they will aid in unlocking solutions to problems, give fresh insight into healing and help with introspective questions regarding self. "Used to unlock the "doors" to healing concepts and those aspects of the self which tend to be illusive. It also assists one in accessing that which is hidden in any situation. One can place the crystal on letters, photographs, etc., in order to gain admittance to concealed or obscure messages which are inherent." Very useful for healers and intuitive diagnostics.
ENHYDRO CRYSTALS Enhydro crystals contain fluid, most often water although some very rare cases plant oil. A bubble of gas moves through the water. Enhydros really resonate. Contained within each enhydro crystal is water that has remained unchanged and pure for eons. As such I have always associated enhydros with cleansing and purification, be it emotional, spiritual or mundane.
Water is also a great element for dream or meditation work. It is the element of feeling and as such helps me intuit the information I am receiving correctly. In cases where the bubbles move in these earth treasures they also teach us to flow easily through our troubles much as the bubbles freely flow in the pockets of water. I have also found them very helpful in healing and divination work.
Metaphysical Properties of Quartz Crystal:
Crystals are nature's perfect creations and we have respected them for their beauty and healing energies for millennia. Crystals and gemstones have been used for personal adornment as far back as 25,000 – 12,000 B.C.E). People used crystal stones, shells and other objects for personal adornment as early as the Upper Paleolithic period (25,000-12,000 B.C.E.) In ancient Egypt, crystals and gemstones were used to emphasize sacred symbols, used in rituals and to adorn tombs.
Today many of us regard crystals as precious gifts from Mother Nature and it is through these crystals and their inherent gifts that we can augment the flow of positive energy into our physical and spiritual bodies. Crystals handpicked by our staff at Divine Crystals are chosen with great thought and care. Our crystals can act as a kind of magnifying glass; enhancing positive energies; they can provide spiritual protection and through conscious application of different crystals, they can enhance anything that we undertake in our daily and sometimes stressful lives.
Metaphysical Properties of Amethyst:
Amethyst is a beautiful gentle healer and is a meditative and calming stone working on all levels.
Emotionally, amethyst can help heal personal loss and grief. Amethyst has a gently sedative energy that promotes peacefulness, happiness, and contentment. It also brings emotional stability and inner strength, and can enhance flexibility and cooperation. Amethyst can help get rid of addictions (alcohol, drugs, smoking, etc.) and compulsive behaviour of all kinds.
In the psychic and spiritual realms, amethyst is an excellent all-purpose stone that can increase spirituality and enhance intuition and psychic abilities.
It is known to open one's channels to telepathy, past life regression, clairaudience, clairvoyance, and communication with angels. Amethyst also protects against psychic attacks, especially during spiritual work.
Physically, amethyst is beneficial for reducing withdrawal symptoms of all kinds, blood sugar imbalances, depression, general healing, left brain imbalances, headaches, arthritis, insomnia, nightmares, other sleep disorders, ADD/ADHD, generalised anxiety, mania, earaches, pain relief, circulatory system issues, endocrine system problems, chronic fatigue, fibro myalgia and immune system deficiencies.
