The Crystal Skull of Communion is carved from classic specimen of ocean jasper from Madagascar. The masterfully carved details of Skullis' Super Realistic crystal skull design enhance the natural beauty of this superb ocean jasper crystal skull. Open vugs lined with druse of clear quartz crystal terminations are surrounded by opaque and transparent corresponding layers which expand to form marvelous patterns in the stone. Various shades of greens, earthy yellows, and creamy whites appear side by side with translucent clear quartz creating an overall beauty common to ocean jasper.

The Crystal Skull of Communion is oriented toward the achievement of harmony and unity. With our innate tendency to cover up our true emotions, rather than communicating openly, honestly, and clearly what it is we are feeling and thinking, we create distance and uncertainty between ourselves and the people in our lives. Despite our past experiences, the Crystal Skull of Communion teaches us that we can learn to trust other people, and we can give them the benefit of the doubt, without putting ourselves in a position to be taken advantage of.

The Crystal Skull of Communion encourages us to continue to be emotional and sensitive, for these qualities help us to grow, yet we must remember to be open and honest about our inner feelings as well, rather than hide them away for fear of ridicule and embarrassment. The expression of these intimate inner thoughts are helpful in identifying the people in our lives who are worthy of our friendship, and also to determine those others who are better kept at a distance because they are operating at a different level of development and have not yet learned compassion and understanding. By sharing our experiences, and by explaining and communicating clearly and honestly, we can eliminate the stress, disharmony, and hurt that can be caused by misperception and misunderstanding. Most importantly, revealing our inner thoughts and feelings as a show of trust will help others who may have issues of low self esteem. A person may seem normal and happy to us, but inside they may be scared and thinking they are not good enough because they see so many things they consider to be faults in themselves. When we share with them, it is possible they will realize their beliefs are incorrect, and they may begin to experience their own process of growth and release the negative thinking they are discovering to be inaccurate. The Crystal Skull of Communion inspires in each of us the desire to strive for and attain the goal of bringing peace and comfort to ourselves and to the world.
