Glorified Reiki I Manual,
By Andrades - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Reiki with Gemstones (Shangri-La) (Paperback)
I bought this book with the hope that it would tell me how certain stones would enhance Reiki treatments or maybe how they would function in a Reiki Grid. I think what I'm trying to say is that I was expecting a catalogue of stones and what they do with Reiki specifically, along with descriptions and illustrations of specialized layouts that would enhance healing with Reiki by merging them with gemstone vibrations. Whoops!First off, the author tells you that certain stones act certain ways depending upon how they are shaped and if they have been altered from the natural state, i.e. faceted, carbocon-cut, tumbled, etc. Sometimes the shape *does* have an effect if the cut enhances the stone such as rfaceting bringin more light into a stone, or if it is in a sacred shape such as a pyramid, but from experience it has little to no effect. She says NOTHING about the gem quality of a stone affecting its vibration and seems to think the size of the stone matters, which I have found not to be the case. I'd say 1/3 of the book is the standard Reiki I hand position manual, indeed, an abridged Reiki I manual, and added because she wanted to make the book longer. No where, except for in a customer review was there even a hint that this book was for beginning Reiki practitioners. Personally, I think enough books have covered Reiki I positions well enough already and to add it to this one was too much. There was a bit of new information (for me, at least) on the layouts and descriptions of 7 of the same gemstone, one on each major Kundalini Chakra: 7 Garnets, 7 Carnelians, 7 Citrines, 7 Rutilated Quartz, 7 Pieces of Amber, 7 Chrysoprase pieces, 7 Rose Quartz, 7 Chalcedonies, 7 Aquamarines, 7 Lapis, 7 Amethysts, and 7 Clear Quartz. Those sections had a paragraph of what the stones were to do in each energy center. And it did give the optimal positions for the stones' energies to affect each Chakra. All in all I was very disappointed with this book, which I had set very high hopes on. However, if you are a Reiki I and/or a beginner at Laying on of Stones, this book might be of some help to you. If you're Reiki II or III, do yourself a favor and look at books which are purely for Laying on of Stones.

Really great insight and direction.,
By Kareej - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Reiki with Gemstones (Shangri-La) (Paperback)
This book is small but packs a punch. Great insight and easy direction to follow and understand. The diagram/photos in the book are helpful as Reiki is not an exact science but some measure of formality is needed.

good book to read for beginners,
By Willowand - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Reiki with Gemstones (Shangri-La) (Paperback)
This book was recommended reading before I started my Reiki training. It was a very very helpful book since I was just beginning my journey with Reiki. I now have more in depth books about gems but this is a great starter book for anyone willing to learn.
