Crystal Decoder: Harness a Million Years of Earth Energy to Reveal Your Lives, Loves, and Destiny

This book is full of colorful pictures and has some information at the beginning that is interesting but not terribly in depth about how crystals are formed and the history of the uses of crystals from scientific to esoteric, around the world. It comes with a nifty board to do the readings with and it provides information on 20-some different stones that can be used for the readings. I've really enjoyed it even though I think it's slighly 'fluffy'. I have been using gemstones/crystals in reiki healings for years and also read tarot. I think that anyone interested in divination with gemstones could take some good ideas from this book!

It's a beautifully put-together book filled with color photos, drawings and charts. It discusses how to select your personal stones, stones for the day or event or other purposes. It also discusses each stone's history, origins, use, spiritual and divine interpretation, chakra relationships, etc. What distinguishes this book from another gem book in my mind is that the author has shared her insight of each stone in a meaningful and concise way. It's in a way like getting a psychic reading. It tells you what kind of person you are and what state of mind you're in. Very entertaining and quite accurate. I think the book is a good value for the money. It's printed on thick, glossy paper, filled with good information, and can serve well as a good coffee table book also. Everyone will find something interesting in there at a party or meeting, and if you keep it for your viewing only, it will be like a collector's item.
