The piezoelectric effect was discovered sometime in the in 1870's. The first experimental demonstration of a connection between macroscopic piezoelectric phenomena and crystallographic structure was published in 1880 by Pierre and Jacques Curie. Their experiment consisted of a conclusive measurement of surface charges appearing on specially prepared crystals (tourmaline, quartz, topaz, among them) which were subjected to mechanical stress. In the scientific circles of the day, this effect was considered quite a "discovery," and was quickly dubbed as "piezoelectricity" in order to distinguish it from other areas of scientific phenomenological experience such as "contact electricity" (friction generated static electricity) and "pyroelectricity" (electricity generated from crystals by heating).The word Piezoelectricity is derived from the Greek piezein, which means to squeeze or press.

Today we define Piezoelectricity as the ability of some materials (notably crystals and certain ceramics) to generate the production of electricity, also known as an electric field energy, when stress is applied. In the electronics industry "Piezoelectric crystal" is usually restricted in meaning to a crystalline substance that exhibits the piezoelectric effect; aka quartz, which has been shown to exhibit more piezoelectricity than other material.

It is also scientifically noted there is a shape change and an increase in the molecular structure of.01% during this process.

Piezoelectric energy and Crystallography have been known for many years unto the science and manufacturing industry. Now it is becoming known unto, you and I, the general public. Raw piezo-electric quartz is a renowned natural electronic oscillator, or resonator and amplifier. Through man's development, piezoelectric quartz crystals have been used to make oscillators for radios, computer chips, clocks, tv's, medical equipment, and many other devices in use for modern day convenience.

Scientists and alike know the sun produces a complex range of radiant energies of which we humans are only aware of two parts; the infra red which produces warmth, and normal light which is visible to the eye. Human detection capabilities in the average person are currently estimated to be less than 2 percent of the known wavelength spectrum, therefore most of "us’"are not aware of over 98 percent of the currently known events surrounding us at all times.

The human body with its complex electrical and chemical network of nerves and high moisture content is not only our power source but also a sensitive antenna system capable of receiving signals from an uncountable variety of sources. When we come in contact with a piezo of electric quartz crystal such as a crystal skull, the electro-magnetic energy waves we produce are received by the quartz. The Crystal then starts to oscillate faster and faster thus amplifying these signals and rebroadcasts them in modified form, back out into the atmosphere where they are picked up again by the cells of the body.
In effect, the quartz crystal modifies and amplifies our own electro-magnetic energy waves and relays them back to us. So, in the process these waves of ‘energy information’ become stronger and clearer. We can also attribute the same effects through the use other gemstones containing quartz crystals such as Jasper's and Agates, Fluorite, Selenite, all types of quartz crystal such as Clear, Rutilated, Tourmalinated, Smoky, Rose,Citrine, and Amethyst to name a few.

There are many who state crystals, gemstones and Crystal Skulls have healing properties. This fact again is atributed to the resonance capabilities to transmit energy as discussed above. The ability of quartz crystal to transmit energy opens the door to the ability to convey information or act as repositories of ancient wisdom like a Universal library. The understanding of computer technology, quartz and piezoelectricity may be keys to explaining these phenomena, and may one day help us to unlock the secrets and mysteries of crystal skulls.

Current crystal skull theory combines the understood scientific properties associated with natural quartz along with the history and wisdom of our ancient civilizations. As crystal skulls re-emerge today, what was once thought to be merely a myth or a legend passed forth by ancient ones and their ancestors, actually may turn out to be a prophecy.

If indeed the crystal skulls are receptacles for stored information, alike computers, then the best way to discover the true history and theory of crystal skulls may require exploration through using techniques like our ancestors did. One such tecnique still in use today to unlock secrets and mysteries, access and retrieve embedded information contained in the crystal skulls themselves is meditation.
Meditation reduces stress and anxiety, increases mental abilities, focus, concentration, and creates the consciousness to be in control of one's life! Meditation benefits have now been documented in over 1,000 published studies conducted at over 200 universities such as Stanford University, University of Chicago, and UCLA and also research facilities, including such notable institutions as Harvard Medical School.
