In this full-color guide to crystals for psychic self-defense, crystal healing teacher Nicholas Pearson explores how to partner with the mineral kingdom for protection, cleansing, and countermagick. He begins by introducing common sources of psychic harm and explains best practices for discerning the symptoms of psychic attack and harmful energies. Looking at spiritual hygiene and the energy field, he shares several cleansing and purifying techniques, including magickal baths, selenite sweeps, aura scrubbing, and smoke cleansing, as well as how to cleanse, program, charge, and activate crystals. He also looks at special techniques aimed at strengthening the boundaries of empaths and highly sensitive people.

Detailing practical methods for protection, the author explores passive approaches, such as psychic shields, jewelry, and carrying gemstones, as well as more active practices, such as spells, meditations, and rituals. He shares magickal techniques for warding your home, vehicle, and work space and for counteracting geopathic stress, EMF pollution, and ill-wishing from those around us. Exploring how to combat and neutralize psychic attack, he examines the necessary yet challenging territory of binding, banishing, reversal, curse-breaking, and exorcism, sharing crystal spells, grid layouts, and rituals for spirit release. In the in-depth directory of 145 of the most powerful and effective crystals and gemstones for protection, banishing, and recovery from psychic attack, the author describes the uses of traditional gems and stones, like ruby, garnet, diamond, and emerald, as well as more recent additions to the healer’s toolbox, like vivianite, mohawkite, arfvedsonite, labradorite, brucite, and others not found in ancient and medieval lapidary manuscripts.

Revealing how crystals are ideally suited for confronting negative energies and providing enduring protection, this guide will teach you everything you need to know to counter and protect yourself from psychic and magickal attacks.
