Very concise guide on Crystals and Gemstones!

When I bought this book, I just expected some really quick information on Crystals nd Gemstones, and I mostly took it as a very "101" book. I was pleasantly surprised by the book's content, though. It has much advice on choosing, cleansing and using your crystals, and even though I haven't tried them yet (mainly because I only own an amethyst), the grids look very helpful, complete and trustworthy. The list of crystals and gemstones at the end, although a bit small, is very concise. On top of all that, you'll end up not only learning how to choose, cleanse and use your crystals for a variety of purposes, but - if you didn't know them - you'll also learn about chakras! At least, this was the source I learned which are the chakras, where each one is, and what crystals correspond to each one. This is one of the best books on crystals and gemstones out there, especially if you consider its size! A great book for both beginners and people who already know much about the subject, I highly recommend it!

A FABULOUS BOOK ON CRYSTALS AND STONES!

This little book on crystals and stones is useful and a pleasure to read. As a beginning New Ager from the Wine Country in California, I bought this book and sat down with it right away. I did the grids with my husband and he actually liked them even though he's a construction worker and totally not into the New Age. He asked me to do them many times now, and each time the grids are more powerful and healing. I have read other Sirona Knight books and each of them is useful and a reading pleasure. She writes an excellent book--and very positive too!
