Stones and crystals are our most ancient teachers. The relationships between the mineral kingdom and the human kingdom are as old as life itself, for the mineral kingdom-comprised of beautiful crystals, dense rocks, sands, clays, and everything in-between-is the very foundation upon which life developed on Earth. Supporting humanity through the cons, these teachers offer curative and restorative properties for healing as well as powerful guidance to catalyze spiritual growth.

Integrating gemstone lore from around the world with modern mineral science, Nicholas Pearson guides readers on a journey into the inner realm of the mystery teachings of the mineral kingdom, a journey that mirrors the soul's path to perfection. He reveals the archetypal wisdom embodied within 7 essential crystal and gemstone mentors-obsidian, jade, lapis lazuli, emerald, quartz, amethyst, and diamond- examining each stone's mythological, historical, and cultural associations in tandem with their crystalline structure and chemical composition. He explores each stone's healing and spiritual properties, providing practical exercises, esoteric revelations, and meditations on the specific spiritual work each stone archetype supports. Obsidian, for example, is the stone of initiation, revealing our shadow side and guiding us to places in need of light. Diamond, the final perfected stone of the seven, illuminates divine love, purifying us and leading our consciousness to enlightenment, cutting through any vestiges of fear or illusion because it is the hardest, sharpest, most luminous teacher the mineral kingdom has to offer.

Enabling each of us to harness the power of stones for spiritual evolution and healing, this guide to the mystery teachings of the mineral kingdom shows how the ancient call to evolve with the crystals and stones that surround us lives on in an unbroken legacy.

NICHOLAS PEARSON has been immersed in all aspects of the mineral kingdom for more than 20 years. He began teaching crystal workshops in high school, later studying mineral science at Stetson University while pursuing a degree in music. He worked for several years at the Gillespie Museum, home to the largest mineral collection in the southern United States. A certified teacher and practitioner of Usui Reiki Ryoho, he teaches crystal and Reiki classes throughout the United States. He lives in Orlando, Florida.

The mineral kingdom, comprised of beautiful crystals, dense rocks, sand, clay, and everything in between, is the very foundation of life on Earth. The rocks and minerals of our beloved planet form the very ground on which we walk and surround us in daily life. Metals are refined from ores and provide the structural framework for buildings, cars, and innumerable quotidian objects; glass is smelted from silica and ash and provides us with another structural material and countless other things we take for granted; gypsum is ever-present in modern life, on everything from plaster, to blackboard chalk, to wallboard. We are literally inseparable from the crystallinity of the planet.
