Crystals and healing have been known about and have been an accepted aspect of ancient and modern civilisations going as far back as the ancient Sumerians, who believed these beautiful rocks had healing and magical properties.
Not only were crystals much prized to be worn as jewellery by so many of the ancient cultures, they were also used in cosmetics, for healing, ground down to be taken as medicinal powers, used in rituals and ceremonies to connect with spirits and the earth.
Minerals, Rocks, Crystals and Gemstones are still used in similar ways today, for healing, adornment, and connection. Julietta Thornbury has created a beautiful, modern guide to sourcing, understanding and using crystals in a modern context in The Crystal Fix, which could be considered as the beginners guide to working with and understanding these beautiful stones, but a work that can also be considered as more than beneficial to those familiar with crystals and their healing abilities.Â
As the founder of Luminosity Crystals, she has spent many years resourcing and working with crystals, passing this knowledge on in a careful, well-constructed style that sets out with clarity living with crystals, how to select the right ones for you and where, when and how to use them.
A comprehensive directory of each of the crystals provides a guide to their healing properties, colour, source, history, uses, and chakra use, with helpful tips included with each of the crystals.
Each stone comes with a large clear photograph of shape and colour which is very helpful when selecting stones, particularly when first beginning to understand and work with Crystals.
Rituals, along with a comprehensive directory of Crystals By Need and then by Alphabet bring this easy to use, very informative, well presented guide to enhancing your life and surroundings with the magic of Crystals, to a delightful and informative close.
