From the Author
150 colour crystal pictures and a wealth of informationAfter an introduction to what crystals are and how they are formed, this book explores their various traditions of magical and healing uses. Comprising ideas ranging from prehistory to laser technology, our focus is firmly on using a wide variety of crystals and other minerals to find practical solutions to everyday situations.
A room by room analysis of the home explains how best to distribute and display crystals and other minerals - the principles of Feng Shui are introduced and observed throughout.
The section on health describes how stones are used in Chakra-healing and crystal essence remedies. Astrological correspondences - birthstones - are introduced and comprehensively covered, and a list of common problems associated with each Zodiac Sign are given a crystalline remedy.
The art of talismanic magic is also detailed, complete with step-by-step rituals for empowering your stones and your life. A hundred key desires are given their talismanic solutions. Other esoteric elements include how to use pendulum dowsing.
Please note that we, the authors, are not in the business of presenting theories as facts. As with many so-called New Age subjects, crystals have sometimes been credited with incredible powers: we have taken pains to demystify such claims and discuss them without necessarily promoting them.
Our intention is to inform as well as entertain - it is certainly not to bamboozle or subvert. We have provided sufficient details on a wide range of topics for our readers to join in the resurgence of crystal interest. You are invited to try a variety of home experiments, with the full benefit of anecdotal and traditional insight, in order to see what works for you.
By presenting this fascinating and respectable subject in an historically accurate perspective we hope to go some way towards showing exactly where the possibilities that are inherent in crystology* may yet lead us
* Crystology: study of the working relationship between crystals (and other minerals) and the holistic human being. We, the authors, coined this word in the absence of any single word denoting humanity's enduring fascination with the esoteric properties of the mineral kingdom. Eventually this word may loose the precise definition we suggest, even so we'll not be too disappointed - the bizarre lack of any traditional nomenclature needs to be addressed without delay!
