Book Recommendation

[Inquisitor85]

Hi everyone. So it's been about 15 years since I looked at anything to do with crystals, so I've pretty much forgotten everything so does anyone have any book they would reccomend for a beginner?

Judy Hall seems to have stood the test of the years with several titles -

“Encyclopedia of Crystals, Revised and Expanded” Paperback – by Judy Hall (Author)

Not to be confused with her “Crystal Bible” series broken into 3 titles - The Crystal Bible 1,2 & 3 with annoying small print.

It also matters if you want an over view or specifically crystal spells & crystal grids or crystal healing. There’s lots. Even the crystal properties laminated fold-out cards can be useful.

My personal old time favorite is Dolfyn’s “Crystal Wisdom” which covers natural quartz crystal shapes rather than different mineral properties.

Oh definitely an overview at this point, although I'll probably move to incorporating them into spell work as I get more comfortable. I'm not sure what a crystal grid even is tbh.

Google images of crystal grids to get the idea - it’s just laying stones in a geometric design.

That book looks perfect and has now been ordered thanks. I imagine a crystal grid must take a lot of planning to balance the energies out, they look beautiful and powerful though.

Nope. You feel it rather than think it.

a great starter book is "change your Energy" By Krista N Mitchell
