These Shiva Lingham Stones  are from the Narmada River in Onker Mandhata, one of India's seven sacred sites, where villagers gather this crypto-crystalline quartz from shallow river beds.  Shiva Lingams are believed to be the embodiment of the Hindu God Shiva and are used in worship as a fertility stone.  Lingham is Sanskrit for phallus.  In Tantra, the shape embodies the masculine energy; dynamic expression and knowledge.  The markings or Yoni (Sanskrit for vulva) depict female energy; wisdon and intuition.  The Tantric Shiva Lingham unifies the dualist female/male world into harmonious balance.  Feng Shui uses the stone to direct energy throughout the home. A physical stone, It nurtures the sacral chakra and is great for those who did not receive proper nurturing in childhood.
