Brandberg - The Gateway Crystal

The perfect blueprint

Found only around an ancient sacred massif in Namibia, the multi-dimensional Brandberg Amethyst is a truly magical tool for healing and enlightenment, containing the perfect blueprint for all that is, has been or ever will be. The crystal does everything required of it, and so much more. Although known under the generic title ‘Amethyst’, this versatile crystal may also be found as Smoky or Clear Quartz and even, although rare, ‘Citrine’. There is a lively ‘harlequin’ red- spotted form. But, no matter what outward form the crystal may take, or which colours may be visible, all Brandbergs carry the essence of the entire spectrum and the perfection of the whole. It is a holographic crystal, each tiny part representing the whole. This is what makes it such a versatile and effective healing tool.

Nevertheless, Brandbergs tend to be person-centred. They like to get up close and personal, so it is best to find one, or more depending on your purpose, that closely matches your own inner resonance. See Judy's Crystal Companion for further info. 

Numerological perfection: why the name change?

This crystal was introduced to me as a ‘Brandenberg’, a name I’ve used for many years. But, having looked at the numerological difference in the two names, I’ve switched to Brandberg Amethyst for this book as it equates to 11, which is a master number. The characteristics of metaphysical number 11 are intuition, illumination, the ability to function on a high spiritual plane, and an immense inner strength. This particular crystal, whichever form it takes, resonates especially well with those principles and can manifest them in your life. Although, as a Brandenberg, an inspirational number 3, it also assists in expressing your own unique creativity, bringing spiritual gifts to the Earth and anchoring them into practical reality. So, both names are equally appropriate.

Karmic healing

Used as a karmic healing tool, Brandberg Amethyst takes the soul back to its roots and to the pure spiritual essence from which it arose. It then imprints that perfection into the cellular and subtle bodies so that the physical body, and the incarnated soul, clears away the past and returns to a state of perfect balance. Gentle Amethyst is a very forgiving crystal and transmutational Smoky Quartz a detoxifying one. Combine these with the high vibrational master resonance of Clear Quartz, and this is a healing tool that works on every level at once. 

Brandbergs are extremely helpful if you have lost touch with your reason for incarnating, or when you are stuck in an outdated purpose with past-their-sell-by-date soul contracts and promises that are no longer relevant tying you to specific people or beliefs that hold you firmly in the past. 

Brandbergs can assist in removing thought or other implants, attachments or inappropriate mental influence from the current, or any previous life, releasing you from their effect.

If soul retrieval is required, a Smoky Amethyst Brandberg calls the soul parts home, healing and detoxing them as necessary before integrating them back into the overall soul. 

If land needs karmic healing, look no further than a Smoky Brandenberg. This is the finest earth healer there is. It dissolves ancient trauma, loss or invasion, and returns the site to a state of perfection. The healing is then passed all around the world via the Earth’s own chakra and meridian system.

Other properties

Brandberg is an excellent metaphysical tool. It opens the third eye and soma chakras, giving deep insights into the causes of life’s problems and challenges. It also connects to the higher self, the part of the soul that is not bound by the physical body and so has much greater awareness of the soul’s purpose and the gifts and soul-learning inherent in all experiences. 

At an emotional level, Brandberg assists you with emotional clarity. It teaches you how to stand inside yourself, viewing the external world but not being overwhelmed by it.
