This is a follow up to the author’s book The Book of Crystal Spells. I love the salt lamp purification ritual. I would never have thought of using the salt lamp as part of a ritual, but it makes so much sense. In the second section, she gives a description of each major arcana tarot card along with keywords, magical uses, and crystals associated with each card. She ends each entry with a question to ask yourself. For the minor arcana, she breaks them down by suits and court cards. She also provides meditations and spells to use with the tarot.

 

In section three, she discusses the different shapes of quartz points. There are meditations, chants, and spells associated to different forms and/or colors. Section four covers minerals based on their unique formations like opal and jade. In section five, the author goes into detail about planning and using crystal grids. Some of the minerals listed in section seven were new to me. In section eight, she provides complete rituals for the different seasons and phases of the moon.

 

The book is easy to read and understand. It is obvious the author has done research on crystals and loves working with them. If you enjoy working with crystals, I recommend this book. It is not as large or complete as other crystal books but the information is valuable.
