Shiva Lingams are holy stones that honor the god Shiva, He who creates, protects and destroys the universe. Lingams are phallic symbols that celebrate sacred masculine energy. Shiva Lingams come from India where they are venerated by the Hindu population. These stones are also highly prized by crystal healers from many different faith traditions. Most Shiva Lingams are tan or reddish-brown. They may have a solid color or have rings or stripes, but they are always oblong in shape. When naturally found in this shape, the stones are called swayambus, which is a Sanskrit word meaning “self-manifesting.” Most Shiva Lingams are river rocks that are hand-polished into oblongs. Shiva Lingam is a powerful healing crystal that is aligned to all chakras, all zodiac signs, all elements and all numbers. It is a fantastic stone for anyone exploring divine energy, sacred masculine energy or holy sex.
