First of all, this book is beautiful. It has glossy pages and is colorful and overall just pleasant to the eyes. I was entranced by it at the store, and couldn’t stand not to own it.

Now onto the content: Charman offers a lot of information and assumes that you are ready for it, which I think will benefit most learners, although it slightly intimidated and overwhelmed me. Along with theories and information, as all crystal books contain, her text also incorporates “exercises”, almost as though it’s a workbook. This was inspiring to me, and it offers gains re-read status.

What is interesting about Charman’s descriptions of the crystals is that she focuses heavily on how they affect spirituality first, then a bit of how they affect thoughts and emotions, with little to no mention of how they can heal certain types of ailments or affect the physical plane. As someone who owns many books on crystals, I enjoyed this change in focus. This is not the right book for the understanding of specific crystals (there are so many books about that already!), but instead offers brand new information about other crystals-related things.

I especially love her thorough section on chakra cleansing/focusing and already plan to spend more time consuming that section in the near future.

In conclusion, this is a unique book about crystals that I will be picking up again many times in my life.

I liked some of the new crystals I was introduced to in this book. Some of which are the Goddess Crystal, the Golden Tektite, Lightbury etc ones. Deepened my understanding of the content further.

This is a really good book but I found another with more details.
