S2 #56 / Nicholas Pearson on Crystals for Psychic Self-Defense

In this episode, I sit down with author and practitioner, Nicholas Pearson to explore the fascinating topic of his new book Crystals for Psychic Self-Defense. Nicholas has been immersed in all aspects of the mineral kingdom for nearly 30 years. The award-winning author of several books, including Crystal Basics, he offers classes online and in-person around the globe. He lives in Orlando, Florida. In his new book he presents magickal techniques with crystals and gemstones for warding off harmful energies, cleansing your energy field, binding, and curse breaking, including crystal grids, amulets, spells, and rituals. He also shares an in-depth directory of 145 of the most powerful and effective crystals for protection, banishing, and recovery from psychic attack In the show Nicholas shares how the endurance of stones symbolises resilience, and their structure helps us organise and stabilise our energy fields. We dive into the magical properties of stones like Labradorite, black tourmaline, and obsidian, discussing how they can filter, ground, or deflect certain energies. Our conversation also takes us into the deeper spiritual significance of stones and their connection to Earth's history. Nicholas emphasises the importance of wonder and encourages finding a stone that resonates with you. Nicolas reflects on the incredible stories that stones tell about deep time and the improbable conditions that created them. In the Plus show, we discuss Nicholas's personal experiences, from encounters with spirits to managing a university museum collection, where he once identified a rare radioactive mineral. We also talk about divination with pendulums and the role of discernment when working with spirit encounters. Join us as we explore the intersection of geology, magic, and deep time.
