The immediate, striking aspect of quality faceted leaded crystals is their prismatic effect.  They break light up into the colors of the rainbow, or prisms, which they cast upon the walls, floors and ceiling of a room. These crystals literally combine the elements of Earth and Fire (or Light) to unite heaven and earth.

Pre-strung on clear nylon, you hang faceted crystal balls as a Feng Shui Cure for negative energies to slow down rushing chi or diffuse bad or "shar" chi. They can also be used as an amplifier for good energy, to boost the effect of a bagua mirror, or paired with plants to really bring forth good chi in the environment. So, at the most basic, they are good luck charms, but with some knowledge about Feng Shui or Sacred Space, they can transform a room into sacred space or simply a haven at rainbows end.

These 20mm Egyptian Crystal Balls are a great value, and a customer favorite for brightening up a desk or work space. They're great for visualization. Pre-strung on clear cord so you can hang them anywhere.

Crystal Energy

Leaded glass crystals contain glass and lead, but may also include carbon, boron and germanium. The exact composition can change the color of the crystal. The immediate, striking aspect of the crystals is their prismatic effect.  They break light up into the colors of the rainbow, or prisms, which they cast upon the walls, floors and ceiling of a room. These crystals literally combine the elements of Earth and Fire (or Light) to unite heaven and earth.

In Feng Shui this prismatic effect is considered to be not only auspicious, but to actually change the energy or vibration of surrounding space. By directing this new, heavenly energy in spaces which have slow, abrasive, or bad energy (known as shar chi), the rainbows filter out all the bad energy and smooth chaotic flows of too much energy.

Simply put, faceted crystal balls can be used as a Feng Shui Cure for negative energies to slow down rushing chi or diffuse shar chi. They can also be used as an amplifier for good energy, to boost the effect of a bagua mirror, or paired with plants to really bring forth good chi in the environment. So, at the most basic, they are good luck charms.

Specific Feng Shui Cures:
1. Hang a crystal at chi (energy) entry points where you sense "poison arrows" from sharp edges directed at you from corners of buildings, polls, lamp-posts or signs which are cut through your view from a window, door, or even room to room.
2. Use as a remedy if you live near a busy street, highway, railway track or looming structures.
3. Use between doors which face one another in a straight line to slow and diffuse the flow of energy, allowing the chi of each room to be harmonious and not take over another.
4. Hang a crystal between your main door and drains or toilets to prevent wealth and good fortune from running down the drain.
5. Use anywhere to clear your space and invite good luck.
6. Hang a faceted crystal anywhere you want to encourage clear thought and aid visualization.

Hanging Crystal Feng Shui Tips:
1. Hanging the crystal from a red cord helps activate the Feng Shui Cure. Red is the color for attraction, warmth and strength. Although too much red can make tempers flare, a touch of it will.
2. Clear up any clutter before hanging the crystal.  Clutter has the opposite effect on the energy of the room, and having two energy sources battling constantly is counterproductive.
3. Hang odd numbers (yang) rather than even numbers (yin) of faceted crystal balls.
