What does crystal lore say about each stone?

Clear quartz is described in crystal lore as the “master healer,” associated with amplifying intention and clearing the mind. Sources such as Crystal Vaults, Energy Muse, and Tiny Rituals report this association; it is symbolic lore, not evidence of medical or psychological effects.

For green phantom quartz, the supported comparison is a contemporary brand story rather than an established historical tradition. Dusk & Relic describes Frost & Fortune as “for steady growth and good fortune.” You could choose it as a personal reminder of a fresh start without treating that preference as traditional symbolism.
