10 Minute Crystal Ball by Skye Alexander
Easy Tips for Developing Your Inner Wisdom and Psychic Powers

Beginning with the idea that everyone is psychic this book goes on to discuss the mind, tools, intuition, divination, other people, problem solving, etc. The most intriguing part of this book is that in each section there are numerous exercises and ideas on how to tap into and strengthen one’s psychic abilities. I remember trying out a number of the ideas in the book: looking at cards and show more having someone guess what the card is (projecting and receiving images), trying to see auras, using a pendulum, using the tarot or the ouija board...many were not new ideas but some were. I believe this book is one that would be fun to have to refer to for ideas and would love to have it in my library.

Thank you to Quarto Publishing Group – Fair Winds Press for the ARC – This is my honest review.

I really adore this cover. It's kind of ominous, but draws you in at the same time. It definitely feels a bit witchy. There are illustrations throughout the book that keep it engaging. The writing is straightforward without being condescending. It is broken down into two parts, and it strongly advises you read the first part before going onto part two where the actual spells are. It gives a great show more overview of what is going to be needed and what you, as a person, need to do to prepare. I, personally, haven't tried the spells though, so I don't know if they actually work. I would give this book 4 out of 5 stars. A great book for a beginner. show less

Another book in this series where the cover was blown out of the park. If I could give it a five out five stars just for the cover I would. Once again, there are colored illustrations throughout the book that keep it engaging and fun to read. This is a fun book for beginners because it really does start at the beginning. The book is broken down into two parts. The first is about physics (everyone is one!) and show more what it means an how to harness that. The second have is the part about intuition, divination, and problem solving. I recommend this book. It's a quick read, but has amazingly good information in it that could really help anyone. 4 out of 5 stars. show less

A somewhat dry recounting of Fairy tales and lore from around the world. It has a bibliography and references other works and I learned about lore I had never heard of before but I didn't really like it. I won't be reading anything else by the author.
