The beauty of crystals alone affords them a special magic, but we can use them to bring much more than simple decorations into our lives.

Today's society seems to have rediscovered the magic of crystals. It's amazing how many wear stones in jewelry, and how many have them placed around their homes. This is not a new trend: fascination with crystals stretches back to the stone age.

Ancient and modern:

Virtually every culture and religion throughout history has used stones symbolically or decoratively. Their beauty and scarcity as well as the feelings they inspire makes them very valuable. Many crystals also have practical uses that we can incorporate into our daily lives. They can gather and direct magical energy that exists all around and within us. Like ancient mystics, we can learn to use them for protection, luck and healing.

How Crystals Work:

Each crystal has its own magical abilities and attributes, but all work in the following way:

*VIBRATIONAL BALANCE

The magic of crystals is in their color, which is determined by the rate at which their atoms vibrate. These vibrations can be matched in the energy given off by your body's aura and your energy centers.

*CHANNEL ENERGY

Just as light can be focused and refracted through crystals so too are all kinds of psychic energy from healing energies to divine communications.

*You will discover the magic of crystals as you build up your collection.

*Earthly colors such as reds and blacks lend a grounded quality to certain crystals.
