Jewelry & Gems for Self-discovery: Choosing Gemstones that Delight the Eye & Strengthen the Sou

What a fascinating book to read! I loved sharing Shakti's journey of discovery with her. It was fun to read from cover to cover in addition to being an invaluable resource book for anyone who wears, buys, or creates jewelry. The astrology information was so simply explained, clarifying many questions I have always had about the stars. Before you purchase another piece of jewelry, you must read this!

Makes for an outstanding guide perfect for new age libraries

This discussion of the metaphysical properties of over sixty precious stones makes for an outstanding guide perfect for new age libraries. Diane C. Donovan California Bookwatch

A Gem of a Book

Shakti Navran has created a book as beautiful and radiant as the gems she describes so perfectly. This book certainly did delight my eye as well as my mind and my heart. And, it did affirm the connection between my body and my soul... so much so that I will be much more conscious of chosing the jewelry that I wear. Thank you Shakti for recognizing and teaching us about the beauty and healing that nature provides. This is an amazingly accurate reflection of the beauty and healing that you share with the world in so many ways. Donna Bradley/ Radiance Center

Thank You Shakti!

I just want to thank you for writing this book! You can tell that you poured your heart and soul into it! I have recently become interested in astrology, but have been overwhelmed by so much information. This book made it all very much easier for me to understand. I have also recently been interested in crystals and gemstones and their unique qualities. This book is revolutionary in that it easily puts the two worlds together in an amazing way! I got an incredible amount out of reading this book and I know that you will too! Happy reading...and thanks again Shakti, the book is truly amazing ; )

Fantastic book!

I love this book! Shakti has produced a book with incredible insight into the world of gems and astrology. She has been a master jeweler for over 30 years and also has studied and given consultations in astrology for many years. In this wonderful book she combines the two modalities together in a most harmonious way. Her book is clear, well written and very informative. Shakti has a beautiful way of expressing her ideas and even after reading her book, I have been looking back over the information almost on a daily basis. This is a must read for anyone interested in supporting their individual journey through the use of gems and astrology. This is a breakthough book on the cutting edge of a new paradigm. Mary Simpson
