The PYRAMID is an ancient symbol of power and strength and they have been used for their healing powers since ancient times. Naturally formed crystal pyramids such as apophyllite, amplify and then tightly focus energy through the apex and are said to be useful for manifestation. Artificially formed crystal pyramids, which are by far the most commonly available, can be used to draw off negative energies and blockages from the chakras. The pyramid shape enhances and focusses the inherent properties of the crystal it is made from.
