Notes From The Author

Many people already know of the healing power of crystals but what I have found is it is increasingly hard to have a list of what they are and how they can help, at your fingertips.

The Book Of Crystals is an attempt to compile all of the information that is available out there on the Internet, into an easy to read, direct to the point format.

While this book was originally designed for my own personal use, I thought why not share it with the world in the hope that we may all find piece and harmony in our daily lives.

Blessed Be.

AGATES

Agates belong to a cryptocrystalline variety of Quartz, otherwise known as Chalcedony.

This group includes the following well known stones: all Agates, Agatised wood, Banded Agates, Bloodstone or Heliotrope, Chalcedony, Carnelian, Chrysophrase, Eyed Agates, Fortification Agates, Hornstone, Jasper, Moss Agate or Mocha stone, Onyx, Plasma, Phrase, Sard, and Sardonyx.

BANDED AGATE

A very light grey blue colour, which is sometimes produced by artificial dyes, this stone is opaque to semi transparent. Its colour makes it a calming comtemplatory stone.

Supports retreat and spirituality.

Encouraging a calm and contempletary view of life.

It aids concentration and is helpful in the positive regulation of our affairs.

It is helpful for the conscious digesting of life's experiences.

Leads to spiritual maturity, growth, inner stability and a sense of reality.

It gives protection by dissolving internal tensions.

Creates a better resistance to external influences.

It stimulates the memory, helping to analyse problems to their root causes.

Helps to find simple, practical solutions and to put them into action.

BLUE LACE AGATE

Usually a bluish-white or grey colour. The lace refers to the gentle layered look usually seen in this stone. It ranges from opaque to semi translucent.

Its cool subtle colour reflect the peaceful calming qualities of this stone, which, by relieving stress and promoting good will, lightens situations and nurtures maternal impulses.

A maternal stone.

Bestows peace, fortitude, happiness and security.

Encourages contemplation, and calms the atmosphere.
