Agate Obelisk

A true obelisk is made from a single piece of stone. Ancient monolithic obelisks had their start in Egypt and can be found all over the world. It is believed that they act as a vessel to help release and distribute built up energy from the Earth. Some believe that’s where crystals themselves originate. Since many crystals naturally grow in an obelisk shape, it is thought that built up energies within the earth are released as crystals. The same effect is believed to happen with smaller crystal obelisks placed inside a room. If the space in which the obelisk is placed has built up energy, the obelisk will help to release/distribute and transform this energy depending on what type of crystal the obelisk was made from.

In crystal healing, different shapes are believed to radiate and focus energy in different ways. The obelisk does just what you would imagine: it concentrates the energy of the crystal and radiates out from the top. Smaller obelisks can be held like a wand and be used to direct energy to a specific part of the body, room, workspace, or really anywhere you want.

Holistic healers are quite fond of obelisks and wands for their useful shape in reiki work. Reiki healing is a holistic technique that involves channeling energy through crystal wands and/or obelisks and using physical touch to bring the recipient physical and psychological relaxation. With the addition of crystal obelisks in so many various available materials (rose quartz, citrine, amethyst, jasper, tiger’s eye, and so may more) and each material containing different properties, reiki is truly a powerful technique especially with the use of obelisks.
