This is a beautiful example of a very good crystal guide.

Its visually very pleasing with not too much info that is overloading when your looking at the individual crystals. If your new to crystals then this is an excellent start.

Recommended to all that are new to crystals and also as a good reference to those familiar with using them.

Thank you Chartwell Books and NetGalley.

Fascinating book, tells you how crystals are formed, the main groups of crystals, the history and so much more! Packed full of information and tips, along with beautiful images. For me, it was more than a crystal book, just so much other things that I am interested in too, such as chakra’s, birthstones and feng shui. Loved this book.

Thank you NetGalley for my complimentary copy in return for my honest review.

Y'all, I have officially found the lost island of Atlantis. I am not even kidding. I have been searching for an informative, readable, thorough yet beautiful book on crystals for ages. And finally...finally, I tell you!...I have found it in SECRETS OF CRYSTALS. This book has everything that you and I have been looking for. It's definitely readable, but packed-to-overflowing with all the information you could possibly hope to find. It is easy to navigate and very aesthetically pleasing. It has how-to's on making crystal grids and meditation tips. It teaches you how to utilize crystals for their healing properties, from physical ailments to emotional/mental needs, to balancing your chakras. Crystals are listed for their specific gifts, such as using Bloodstone for blood circulation or Rose Quartz for anxiety. There is so much more.

Ms. Harding, as soon as I am able to squeeze it into my budget, I will be purchasing a physical copy of this book and toting it with me

EVERY.

WHERE.

A definite recommend!!

I am extremely interested in holistic medicine and alternative healing so this book appealed to me. Harding begins the book with a scientific and geological context for how crystals are formed. The next section of the book places crystals within the historic and archaeological context. The next section focuses on how to choose crystals and what to look for and later the care of the crystals. Harding then begins the discussion of how to use crystals for healing beginning with a very useful chart of each stone and what to use it for. This section also focuses on different layouts that can help you with various healing needs. Harding then includes a directory of each crystal type, what it is used for, where it is from, and its historical use.

I think that this is a very good introductory text for anyone who is interested in crystal healing. The images in the book are beautiful and would even make a good book to flip through event this is not your area of interest.
