Underworld Ariel’s Crystallomancy
Hiya, cherubis and budews, bellsprouts and sunfloras!
A method I use in my divination sessions is crystallomancy, where I take my tumbled stone collection, close my eyes, mix them around in front of me and then let my hand be guided intuitively to however many stones to fetch answers and affirmations.
To upgrade this divination method, I recently purchased more tumbled stones! I will now have quite the collection, and so, I wanted to collect the meanings in all one space as I don’t think I’ll ever get round to write each an individual quick guides post.
Below is a list of every crystal I own in alphabetical and an explanation of what it means. Any with their name linked takes you to my guide post on them, which offers more information and sources. Because of tumblr’s link limit, I can’t link to the research I did on each crystal, but a standard google such can take you to them.
I’m sure this will be a helpful source away from my readings, so feel free to reblog! To learn more about my crystallomancy, check out my paid readings!
