If I had to pick one book to be on my shelf for crystals, it would be this book. It is the first book I recommend to people. Not only does it tell you what they do but how to cleanse, charge with intent, grids, how to spot fake stones and so much more. I tell people it is 3 books in one. You get more than the cost of this book.
