If You Want to Build A Collection Of Magical Stones Or Want To Learn Crystal-Centred Spells, Then Keep Reading.
The ancient Egyptians used clear quartz, emerald, and lapis lazuli in jewelry. They would also carve magical amulets for health, protection, and to purge evil spirits. The ancient Greeks used hematite to make their bodies invulnerable. And to this day, Jade is highly valued in China as a "dream stone" that helps to access the shamanic realm while meditating.
Healers and shamans consider crystals to be alive due to their capability to impart healing energies to plants, animals, and people. And eventually, everything is energy, and everything is connected. Hence our intentions and thoughts can be harnessed and sent into the universe. Crystals are able to interact with that energy and help us to manifest the desired changes in our life.
With that being said, author Arin Corvinus, reveals in her new book Wicca For Beginners: Your Practical Handbook Of Wicca Crystal Magick the lore of harnessing the energies of crystals, magical stones, and metals.

Eventually, you will discover how to use these crystals in your spell work and for magical creations such as amulets, elixirs, crystal baths, and much more.
