Native
legends speak of Crystal Skulls as an inheritance
from ancient times. Said to “talk and sing” they
are believed to carry messages for all humankind,
including what may be discovered when we overcome
our fear of death.
"The first layer of working with any crystal skull,
including Synergy, is often simply "to remember." This
is the first layer - and this layer has many other layers
within it. What you are to called to remember is who
you really are. It's so easy to get caught up in the
daily things and forget that each life is short and sweet,
even with the difficulties. The real you is a Being of
Light. You are a Spiritual Being, inside of a physical
body. Remember..." ---Sherry Whitfield Merrell
About Sherry - in her own words
"I guess you could say that intuitive abilities
run in my family because just about everyone, on both
my mother's and father's sides, have a fairly strong "sixth
sense" of some sort. I just seemed to get a bigger "dose" of
the family 'juice'. I was never given an undue amount
of attention for any psychic abilities. It was just an
accepted part of life by my family. I can’t remember
a time that I couldn’t see and hear ‘things’ that
other people seemed unaware of. I’ve routinely
experienced things that our language and culture have
no accurate words to describe. I can't remember a time
when I was 100% alone. I’ve always been aware of “Beings
of Light” that are with everyone.
At school I realized that others didn’t have experiences
like mine. I grew fearful that I was delusional. At 16
I decided to “make the crazy things stop happening.” So,
I went to various churches, looking for help. Some told
me I had a ‘gift’ and would discover how
God wanted me to use it. But I just wanted to give it
back. Since church couldn't stop my experiences, I tried
psychiatry.
I felt I must be psychotic. I saw a psychiatrist and
begged him to 'fix' me. After extensive testing, the
Doctor told me I didn't have a brain tumor and explained
it was his professional opinion I was having ‘ESP
type’ experiences, not psychotic episodes. He suggested
I meet with other clairvoyants. I also met other medical
doctors and researchers who assured me that there was,
indeed, a scientific basis for what he was telling me.
Eventually, I learned to trust this Doctor -- and he
began to help me to accept myself. I ended up working
for him for a while as an "in‑office psychic".
Later, another doctor helped me accept that this is "normal" for
me.
During the last 30 years, I've had my own businesses
and have done well. My journals have helped me to see
that the information I receive is solid, practical and
always of benefit. I’ve learned about self‑mastery,
rather than the mastery of others. My journey hasn't
been easy, but then, nothing worthwhile in life is…I
have also learned that some of these techniques can also
be used by people wanting to open and expand their consciousness.
So, when I have the time and energy, I share some of
these simple techniques to increase spiritual awareness.
An important thing I've learned is that being "psychic" neither
means being "crazy" or "spiritual" either.
There are beautiful, loving souls with psychic abilities
and also power hungry, lying manipulators. The path of
power or the path of love is a personal choice. Opening
psychic realms can become a trap, if power is what
you focus on, instead of love."

Synergy's
Story
Synergy weighs 15.5 lbs: the size of an adult human skull.
According to two forensic anthropologists who studied
it, it was modeled from an actual large human skull.
Thus, a face could be reconstructed on it. What would
the face of Synergy look like?
Synergy is the quality that this skull is said to represent
and its name. Synergy means "the cooperative action
of two or more entities, to bring about a total effect
that is greater than what either can do alone".
Anyone who has experienced this crystal skull when it
is active will tell you that these combined energies
are incredible.
Synergy was in a South American village when it was acquired
in the 1980s by a European businessman while hiking in
the Andes. A native elder gave it to him, saying the
skull itself had chosen him to take it to the West to
someone who would know what to do with it. He was told
it had been the property of a local Catholic nun who
had been given the skull by a Native Shaman. She considered
it a symbol of the transcendence of Soul over death.
She said that it carried the message of immortal life
and the illumination that we may discover when we lose
our fear of death. A jewelry designer, the European man
used it as an accent display for his jewelry for a over
a dozen years until he brought it to the Tucson Gem Show
in February 2001. There he met gemstone dealer and recognized
intuitive counselor, Sherry Whitfield Merrell. After
she admired it, he found himself telling her “I
think you should have this.” He felt the crystal
skull itself wanted to go with Sherry and so he followed
his heart and gave it to her. After thinking about it
overnight, she accepted, having no thoughts of what she
might do with it. It was their hearts’ decision,
not logical or rationally considered.
Sherry began “listening” to Synergy when
dealing with clients who came to her for intuitive spiritual
counseling and to her workshops about Angels. She also
displayed it at her gift galleries. Then, in 2005, a
man from an island off of the coast of New Zealand, who’d
seen a photo of Synergy in a newspaper, visited her,
and experienced Synergy. He felt it was a “reunion” for
them both. He brought a small modern amethyst skull that
had been in Synergy’s energy field back to the
tribe’s chief and Shaman. Later, after corroborating
his feelings with his tribal elders in the Pacific, he
told Sherry a most-unusual story of how Synergy had once
belonged to their tribe, having been brought there from
the Americas thousands of generations ago for safe-keeping.
This Native tribe still reveres other ancient skull artifacts
today. These elders told their Westernized traveler that
in fact the skull Sherry calls Synergy had long ago “spoken” to
their ancestors, requesting to be “sent out” as
a messenger of their reverence for life and collective
wisdom. Thus they’d returned it to the Americas,
where it eventually was given to the Spanish nun, then
to the Andean village elder, then to George, the European
jeweler, and ultimately to Sherry Whitfield Merrell.
In 2006, another part of this story was verified by Hawaiian
Kahunas. They say that it indeed arrived on the islands,
via reed canoes. This crystal skull is a part of the
ancient and sacred secrets from their ancestors. Sherry
firmly believes that this ancient talisman has reappeared
at this time to help those who seek deeper connections
to ancestral and Earth wisdom
