Can You Really Charge a Crystal to Resonate Positive Energy?
It’s rare to have figured out and planned your career path in childhood, let alone a career within a niche subset of a scientific field, but that is exactly what Marcel Vogel did, having synthesized phosphors at the age of 12. In adulthood, he became a successful researcher for IBM with over 100 patents before he produced his seminal invention, the eponymous “Vogel Crystal,” used for dowsing, healing, and myriad metaphysical purposes.
Vogel had a near-death experience after suffering pneumonia at age six. After being pronounced dead, he was revived saying he experienced love and light while his heart stopped. This caused Vogel to struggle to assimilate back and reconcile with his life afterward. He soon found himself on an existential journey to which he found the answer after extensive praying. He said a voice told him he would be a phosphor chemist and make advancements in luminescence, a path he diligently followed.
Vogel worked for IBM for 27 years, creating the magnetic coating for hard disks used in all IBM computers — an invention that came to him in a dream. But it wasn’t until he was exposed to the work of Cleve Backster and his paper, “Do Plants Have Emotions?” that Vogel switched his focus of study to the power of crystals for spiritual use.

The Vogel Crystal
Intrigued by Backster’s study, Vogel conducted similar experiments of his own with plants. Using a Wheatstone bridge circuit, he measured the plant’s response based on his thoughts about ripping its leaves. He found that the plants acted like a battery, mirroring and storing his thoughts. If he projected thoughts about ripping one plant onto another, it picked up the energy. According to Vogel, this phenomenon could occur at long distances, even thousands of miles away.
Vogel applied this concept of charging something physical with thought and emotion to be focused and channeled. Having worked with liquid crystals, Vogel applied the concept behind their use in focusing lasers, to use them for focusing thought. After running numerous experiments on the conductivity of the energy of quartz he created the Vogel crystal, modeled after the Tree of Life with the measurement of its facets based on the angles of the Great Pyramid of Giza, 52 degrees, 51 minutes and 51 seconds.

The Vogel crystal works on subtle biological functions, based on the idea that energy resonates with water. Since our bodies are made of more than 70% water, the crystal becomes a tool for resonating positivity at a molecular level. The crystal itself doesn’t contain any intrinsic power, rather it transmits energy once it is charged, much like a laser focuses light.
The crystal has a receptive end that absorbs, coalesces, and amplifies energy that is then focused acting as a quantum converter. Vogel believed that the body contained numerous liquid crystal systems in our cell membranes, blood, and nervous system that would resonate with energy in the crystal.
Clearing and Charging a Crystal
Many crystals are purported to be Vogel crystals, however, there are only a few producers that know Vogel’s original method. When looking for a crystal, a person’s energy field is considered before the cutting and faceting process. Otherwise, one will typically have an intuition for which crystal is right for them.
Crystals can be cleared of negative energy by holding the crystal between the thumb and middle finger of your dominant hand, breathing in and holding your breath for a few seconds while thinking of clearing the crystal of any limiting energy, and then releasing your breath in a quick burst. This process is repeated for each facet.
A crystal can be charged by rolling it around and squeezing each facet until a slight charge is built up. This charge can be felt when the crystal becomes sticky from what is called a piezoelectric charge. With the acute angle facing away and the index finger placed on the tip, the breath is drawn in and pulsed out with the intent of putting all the love of your heart in the crystal. According to Vogel, this captures a fragment that can resonate in the crystal that promotes positive energy.

Scientists Successfully Create Brain Interface That Improves Memory
Cognitive-boosting prosthetics are quickly becoming a reality as doctors are seeing success with a neural interface that improves memory function by stimulating electrodes implanted in the brain.
This “closed-loop hippocampal neural prosthesis” has moved from testing on rodents, to actual human application with positive results. The device works by sending electrical signals from an apparatus outside the body to electrodes internally connected to the hippocampus, a seahorse-shaped part of the brain that plays a major role in memory.
Researchers involved in the program describe their approach as aiming to use patient’s own neural codes for memory through a closed-loop system in which electrical signals are exchanged instantaneously.
Patients using the system showed a 37 percent improvement in short term memory tests. Scientists were even more surprised to find that long-term memory of 30 to 60 minute intervals had also improved by a similar 35 percent.
But these electrical zaps weren’t just random stimulation. Researchers carefully recorded where and when specific regions of the patients’ brains reacted when performing tasks involving the use of memory, and carefully tailored electrical pulses to induce a similar response.
The team originally tested their method on brain tissue, before moving on to rodents, and then monkeys. Now, with their success in humans, they will continue to develop the technology in hopes of someday having a fully implantable apparatus to boost cognitive function.
One of the members of the team touted memory as being part and parcel of one’s personality. Our collection of memories in life certainly play an important role in individuality allowing us to recall experiences that shape our lives.
The team hopes this technology could one day help restore memory function to those affected by drugs, disease, and brain injury.
Their success in memory enhancement comes at a time when interest in cognitive boosting technology is piquing. A number of scientists have been working on mapping out the brains’ neurological connections in hope of developing computer-brain interfaces for superhuman neurological function.
Elon Musk is currently invested in a project called Neuralink, a neural mesh laid over the brain, merging AI with human cognition. Musk says the concept would ideally improve the speed of connection between the brain and one’s digital self, focusing particularly on output.
With the recent success of this closed-loop hippocampal prosthesis, it wouldn’t be too far-fetched to expect some investment from Silicon Valley in the future.
