Book Review: Wisdom of the Gemstone Guardians
Wisdom of the Gemstone Guardians stands apart from any other crystal healing book on the market in many respects. First of all, whereas other crystal healing books usually contain so called ‘channeled’ information from the spirit world, none of them so directly profess it the way this book does.
While this may sound too far out there for most M.D.’s and conservative medical practitioners, Michael Katz is convinced that crystal healing, when applied methodically and scientifically, will gradually gain acceptance by the conventional medical establishment.
Mr. Katz has plenty of support in his convictions. Successful athletes from all over the world attest to the power of Gemstone Energy Medicine, including but not limited to: Arizona Diamondbacks’ Pitcher Tanner Eriksen, Olympic Trainer and Triathlete Art Dilworth, British Olympic Swimmer Mark Foster, and Swedish Olympic Medalist Glen Christiansen.
Another well-known celebrity says, “Some inner voice told me to read this book. Thank you, inner voice. What a remarkable study.” Those are the words of Larry King, quoted in the 1997 edition of this book.
The material in Wisdom of the Gemstone Guardians is made up of the teachings of twenty-nine ‘Gemstone Guardians,” each of whom is in charge of a particular gemstone. They tell us of the powers and healing qualities of each stone.
Even though Wisdom of the Gemstone Guardians is technically speaking a non-fiction book, it is so exquisitely well written that it’s actually a more enjoyable read, cover to cover, than most novels. It’s hard to put down once you’ve begun reading it, and I’ve heard of no other book engendering an interest in crystal healing in the previously uninitiated.
If you are looking for a reference book in which to look up any gemstone which happens to draw your immediate attention, then Wisdom of the Gemstone Guardians is not the right choice. But if you are looking for the best, most inspirational and enjoyable story about the healing properties of some of the most powerful gemstones in the world today, then there really is no comparable alternative.
The best-selling Wisdom of the Gemstone Guardians has been reprinted numerous times. The original title of the book was Gifts of the Gemstone Guardians. A later intermediary edition was sold as Gemisphere Luminary.
