Carved Hematite Singing Crystal Skull' Description        PERFECT DETAILS! Carved Hematite Singing Crystal Skull   The Symbol of The Higher Mind, The Stone of Courage & Strength!   Here is an exceptionally handsome Hematite skull!   Hematite is also called Hemetite and Alaskan Black Diamond.   It is a natural iron oxide, and very heavy for its size.  It has a Specific Gravity of 5.3, which is above average for metallic minerals.  This Hematite was mined in Minas Gerais, Brazil.    The skull has been perfectly carved in Raven's Singing Style.  It has an open, 'singing' jaw which has been permanently carved in an open position, perhaps allowing this skull to be an especially good communicator! It is a substantial size, measuring 4 inches long and weighing in at precisely 2.66 lbs.  It has been completely hand carved and shows superb detailing in both shape and details including Raven's trademark hollowed out jaw and cheekbones.  Even the underside has been hollowed out and fully detailed to resemble the 'real thing'!  The high gloss polish puts the perfect finishing touch on this awesome metallic masterpiece!  Please note that there is an extremely fine (ie. VERY TINY) fissure line in the back of the cranium.  If you look closely at the photos below, you will see it.    Metaphysically, the Symbol of the Skull represents The Higher Mind.  To attain the higher mind of spiritual awareness and psychic ability we must be released from the thrall of the lower cognitive mind.  The Skull also symbolizes Change, which is truly the great healer of all situations, conditions, and troubles.  Without Change in our lives, we do not spiritually grow.   In many cultures around the world, the Skull is seen as the House of the Soul and revered because of it's tremendous importance to us as human beings. It is my experience that working with a Crystal Skull is a multi-dimensional journey of discovery, enlightenment, and growth.  They can be excellent catalysts for Healing, Dreamwork, Meditation, Past Life Recall, Spiritualism and Self-Improvement on many levels. Anyone with an interest in Metaphysics should have a Crystal Skull! After all, two heads ARE better than one!  Metaphysically, Hematite is a very powerful Stone of Courage and Strength.  Hematite has long been associated with blood.  When this stone is being carved, it will literally "bleed" red!  This is where the name "Hematite" originated, as "Hema" refers to blood.  Warriors used to carry this stone as a talisman onto the battlefields, as they believed that it would protect them from serious wounds or bleeding. Hematite is said to help strengthen the circulatory system and to help in the treatment of blood and kidney disorders. This metallic-looking silvery stone promotes Courage and Strength, while diminishing Fear. An excellent choice for anyone during this current period in world history. Hematite vibrates to the number nine, and it is associated with theAstrological signs of Aries and Aquarius.              Quoth Raven:  "The best way to remove temptation is to give in to it!"     Yes, Raven and I still pay the Priority Mail shipping costs for all packages mailed to addresses within the USA !
