Crystal Grids: How and Why They Work: A Science-Based, Yet Practical Guide

WOW! I love all the information that is housed in this small yet powerful book on how and why Crystal Grids work!Hibiscus Moon truly did her research - thank goodness for us - on the many areas where Crystals and Grids can be found as well as the scientific reasons behind their effectiveness in Energy/Vibrational Healing.As someone who wanted to learn more about this field, I'm grateful to have found her book and am now participating in her Certification Program! But, be aware, if you find her information as useful as I have and want to dive deeper into the beautiful journey of Crystal Grids, 2022 is her last year teaching the Certification Class so you'll want to get on the waitlist for her upcoming course openings - you'll be SOoo glad you did!This book is a wonderful dive into the world of Crystal Grids full of treasures possibly unknown to you, and the Certification Course is the 7-course meal you didn't know you wanted, till you were at the table looking over all the delectable treats that await you 🌟💎🌟I have the softcover book, kindle, and audible versions, you truly won't go wrong with any form of purchase of this mighty resource - enjoy!

When I first received the book I was surprised at the small, thin size. With it toughted as "science-based" I was expecting a thicker book. Despite that, I enjoyed the easy read from Hibiscus Moon. The science here briefly touches on sacred geometry and energy fields and how that relates to grids (crop circles are mentioned). I don't think she need worry boring us about science if she advertises it as such. For me, it read more like splashes of information rather than a complete piece woven together. My hope was that it would include more personal or conducted studies that people have done using crystal grids and the results that came about. I.e. What are some effects of using specific crystals in a specific geometric configuration in a particular location? More history on where crystal grids have been used and their effects would have been interesting too. Having used crystals for over 20 years and seeing all the metaphysical books on them out there to initiate love, abundance/prosperity, happiness into one's life I was looking for a different perspective. Let's bridge these worlds! She gets us started here. The reference section and recommended reads for more in depth information are a bit slim. All photos are black and white, some difficult to make out what is in it. Hopefully if she reprints she can include color photos, more expensive to print but especially worthwhile for this type of book. If you are a newbie this is a good start to introduce you to crystal grids and the elements at play.

I have been interested in crystal grids since a friend walked me through making one a few months ago... I had been looking at Hibiscus Moon's book for a while and truly understanding grids as how I had not worked with them before. After I finally purchased the book, I could not put it down and read it in about an hour... I have retained information that makes sense to me. I have never read any book even through my college education that describes almost word for word as to what I am looking for as far as information.. I am like a sponge for information and I cannot get enough as to the how and whys certain things work... This book told me the hows and whys! The first book ever including in a sense a phylisophical (cant spell) answers I had been looking for... I have taken her information in this book and and reread the sections I need to... But seeing that I personally retain information after the first time I read it, I find that someone is finally on my intelligence level... I made a grid after a few days of contemplating on which crystals I should us and which type of grid taht I truly needed... Needless to say, this grid worked and I am 100% on the "same page" as Hibiscus Moon according to her book "crystal grids and why they work" I highly suggest that this book also be used in certain educational classes such as a physics class in order to compare physics to metaphysics and see the correlation that is truly between the two... I find that physics and metaphysics go hand in hand and the metaphysical aspects of this book answers the scientifical aspects that people need to know in order to learn more about the energies in crystals...

Fascinating read. I only wish that the crystal grid layouts would have been a bit larger; sample grid templates would have also been helpful. For those unfamiliar with many of the crystals named in this book, the practical and metaphysical descriptions of their properties come in handy. I was expecting to see more examples of the various styles of sacred geometry layouts as I am still relatively new to crystal gridding.Some of the hyperlinks were broken or inactive as a side note. These were my reasons for detracting one star. Overall, I truly enjoyed this book. It is insightful and enthusiastic for crystal novices written in a very matter-of-fact style. I would recommend this book to anyone who is crystal curious. This is a brief, yet informative read about crystal grids and how to use them.

I absolutely LOVE this book❣️It is full of amazing information that covers both the practical & scientific reasons for creating & using Crystal Grids.It is an easy read & one I have revisited many times. I keep a copy in my travel bag as well!The Author is very passionate about her teachings & Super easy to understand & follow.I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone studying crystals in general as well as anyone creating Crystal Grids.You will NOT be disappointed❣️

I wasn't sure what to expect from this book but I really enjoyed it. I like that it came from a science perspective. I am now a crystal convert.

I really enjoyed this book! I am currently studying crystal grids via an online crystal healing course with the author, and this was required reading for the course. It is a good, basic, easy to understand discussion of crystal grids, covering different purposes for the grids, and the author's interpretation of the science behind them. It is a good starting point for further, more in-depth study of crystal healing. I definitely recommend it to beginners studying crystal healing!

Gorgeous and informative

A good solid understanding presented.

A large portion of this book is about science. Much is not necessarily just the science of crystals. It is refreshing to see a subject like this spoken of and backed up with science - it helps those of us who use crystals explain to science-oriented people how they work rather than making it sound that there is no substance other than new age fluff involved.HOWEVER I got a large chunk of the way through the book and started the fear that by the time the part specifically about crystals appeared that the information must be incredibly condensed to fit it into what was remaining of the book. I was disappointed with the lack of detail in this section of the book, especially the lack of clarification of questions that I know a lot of novices have. I will give a couple of examples: - The part on how to activate the grid says to use the wand, pointing it to the centre stone, and then pointing around the outer stones one by one, as if connecting the dots. It does not mention if it matters which outer stone to begin with or not, (apparently from what I have heard, it does not matter, but it would not hurt to clarify this) or to go clockwise or not, and it encourages you to watch one of Hibiscus Moon's videos to see how she activates the grid. I know from watching a few of her vids previously on YouTube, that she does not just point to each stone one after the other, but connects each stone to the centre stone by pointing to an outer stone, then the centre stone, then to the next outer stone, then back to the centre stone, and so on until all have been done. I do not feel that this would have been an incredibly difficult process to describe, and find it rather lazy to leave it out and direct people to a video instead. It also does not give a little extra help on activated grids like the ones she mentions that have several layers for example, a centre stone, a circle of stones around that and another larger circle of stones around the entire thing, by clarifying which 'layer' of stones to start with after the centre stone, or if the two circles would also need to be connected to each other etc. It probably does not matter. However clarification would not have taken a huge effort. - It explains that a pendulum can be used on the grid, but does not mention how to program a pendulum so it will give you yes and no answers, and this could have been done in a tiny paragraph, taking all of two minutes of time to write. - What I really hoped to find in this book was specific layout templates I could copy in order to start making my own. There are no templates in the book, you are told to go to a particular web link to download her free printable templates. BUT when you get there only two templates are free. Her package of ten need paying for. Why these could not have been put in the book for people who have already parted wth money, even in an appendix is beyond me. There are a few photos of actual set up crystals grids, with small captions underneath of what crystals were used, (be aware that on non-colour kindles these will obviously be in black in white and therefore difficult to tell which stones are which, I have noted a few reviews mentioning only black and white photos, my tablet version is in colour, but I cannot speak for the actual paperback version) I would have preferred detailed examples of crystal grids, but what you get is a certain need, what shape and stones would be best for that need, but no help on what order the combine the stones in the grid. And as a beginner to grids, I find this very frustrating.So to wrap it up, a promising, intelligent start to the book, but just not enough in the actual grid section for someone like myself who likes practical detail, especially when it would take so little to include it. I did not buy this book to be sent to watch videos and download things; the book seems rather superficial in not having those things already included. I believe this book deserves about 2 and half stars. I have rounded it up to 3 as my kindle version was discounted. If I had of bought the paperback, which I almost did, which is over £7 I would have been extremely annoyed.
