CRYSTAL DIVINATION

Discovering the future with twelve crystals

A popular traditional method of discovering future options and opportunities as well as seeing obstacles so you can avoid them, involves using twelve small round crystals. These you keep in a drawstring bag.

• Each crystal has a specific meaning. Pick one each morning from the bag, feeling all the stones in turn and picking the one that feels right. That way you know what lies ahead in the day and how best to respond. Each crystal also has protective and luck bringing qualities and you may like to wear your favourite fortune telling stones as jewellery as a necklace or bracelet or carry the crystal in a tiny purse on a day you pick that crystal.

• If you have a question about the future or about what choice you should make, pick three crystals, one after the other from the bag without looking as you ask your question.

• Hold the three crystals in your cupped hands, close your eyes and you will see pictures, hear words in your mind and gain impressions that will give you the information you need from your guardian angel, spirit guide or your wise inner self that can see ahead.

• Study the meanings of the crystals as that will help you to understand more what the crystals are saying. The full meaning for each stone is given in the book Crystal Power.
