“The Shapes and Sizes of Gemstones
Crystals come in various shapes and sizes, either directly from the earth in their natural state or polished and cut into various geometric configurations. Gemstones are especially delightful in jewelry, amulets, and pendulums. In fact, your home, office, and jewelry box probably contain some of these sparkling treasures already. After reading this book, you will look at your gemstone paperweights, bookends, and rings from a new perspective. The various shapes of the stones provide further insights when setting your intentions.
Spheres
A sphere (also called a crystal ball or orb) is a three-dimensional object shaped like a ball. Every point on the surface is the same distance from the center. Virtually every type of stone has been polished into a sphere, so the choice of color and size is plentiful. This shape is helpful during times when you are connecting with the oneness of all life. Spheres are pleasant to gaze at during meditative practice. Use a sphere to help focus your attention on receiving intuitive information to help yourself or another person. Use it as a companion tool during readings or in a work setting on your desk as a decorative item to help you “hear and read between the lines.”
