The Illustrated Crystallary

Best-selling author Maia Toll’s third book, The Illustrated Crystallary, offers inspiration and spiritual guidance garnered from 36 gemstones and minerals, and includes 36 oracle cards beautifully illustrated by Kate O’Hara.

Description

In the ancient world there were three medicine kingdoms: animal, vegetable, and mineral.

Following her previous acclaimed volumes on animal (The Illustrated Bestiary) and vegetable (The Illustrated Herbiary), Maia Toll fulfils the call for mineral with The Illustrated Crystallary, exploring the mystical qualities of 36 fascinating crystals and minerals, including amethyst, hematite, mica, smokey quartz, emerald, ruby, and more.

Combining bits of ancient wisdom with her own insights, Toll illuminates the aspects and energy of each stone and, through rituals and reflections, the life guidance it might offer contemporary readers. Obsidian's shiny surface and sharp edges reflect the shadowy corners of the self and serve as the tool for cutting them loose. The sky-like color of earthly turquoise provides balance between opposing forces.

Stunning illustrations by Kate O'Hara magnify the symbolism of each crystal and are also featured on 36 bonus cards included in an envelope bound in the back of the book. Also available: The Illustrated Herbiary and The Illustrated Bestiary.
