What a fascinating book to read! I loved sharing Shakti's journey of discovery with her. It was fun to read from cover to cover in addition to being an invaluable resource book for anyone who wears, buys, or creates jewelry.
The astrology information was so simply explained, clarifying many questions I have always had about the stars.
Before you purchase another piece of jewelry, you must read this!

Shakti Navran has created a book as beautiful and radiant as the gems she describes so perfectly. This book certainly did delight my eye as well as my mind and my heart. And, it did affirm the connection between my body and my soul... so much so that I will be much more conscious of chosing the jewelry that I wear. Thank you Shakti for recognizing and teaching us about the beauty and healing that nature provides. This is an amazingly accurate reflection of the beauty and healing that you share with the world in so many ways.

This book is informative and very innovative in the way it links the love of
gemstones to astrology. I highly recomend it.

I just want to thank you for writing this book! You can tell that you poured your heart and soul into it! I have recently become interested in astrology, but have been overwhelmed by so much information. This book made it all very much easier for me to understand. I have also recently been interested in crystals and gemstones and their unique qualities. This book is revolutionary in that it easily puts the two worlds together in an amazing way! I got an incredible amount out of reading this book and I know that you will too! Happy reading...and thanks again Shakti, the book is truly amazing ; )

I love this book! Shakti has produced a book with incredible insight into the world of gems and astrology. She has been a master jeweler for over 30 years and also has studied and given consultations in astrology for many years. In this wonderful book she combines the two modalities together in a most harmonious way. Her book is clear, well written and very informative. Shakti has a beautiful way of expressing her ideas and even after reading her book, I have been looking back over the information almost on a daily basis. This is a must read for anyone interested in supporting their individual journey through the use of gems and astrology. This is a breakthough book on the cutting edge of a new paradigm. Mary Simpson

This thoroughly researched and well written book discusses the properties of various gemstones and how they can support and enhance your life. My own collection of carefully chosen gemstone jewelry, some of which Shakti has made, continues to be a source of enjoyment and delight every day.

This book was fascinating to read. I had a few pieces of jewelry with gemstones and discovered why I felt a certain way when I wore them. It was so interesting to find out what energies each gemstone could add to my life. A wonderful and easy book to read.

I love astrology and the beautiful world of gemstones. This is the only book I ever found which correlates the planetary principles with gemstones. I found this book deeply insightful and inspiring to read. Whenever I meditate with a gemstone or put on a necklace or ring I now feel much more in tune and self-aware about the spiritual and healing qualities. It makes me feel good!

As someone who loves gemstones, I found this book a fascinating insight as to how my delight in certain stones is directly related to the stone's properties and its affect on my physical body. A must read for gem lovers. I'd love to see more gems added to this group!
