    Synopsis: Just like gemstones, essential oils work on an energetic level to=
    re-balance us spiritually, mentally, and emotionally and offer many physio= logical benefits.

    Bringing aromatherapy into partnership with crystals, "Essential Oils & Gem= stone Guardians Cards" by crystal expert and aromatherapist, Margaret Ann L= embo presents a hands-on way to engage with the enhanced powers of allies f= rom the mineral and plant kingdom together. Specifically created to help yo=
    u establish clear intentions, the 42 two-sided cards each show an essential=
    oil and a vibrationally matching crystal, offering guidance and positive a= ffirmations for your life.

    The color-coded cards are divided into six groups: Focus, Grounding, and Pr= otection; Health and Well-Being; Love, Friendship, and Romance; Money, Crea= tivity, and Motivation; Happiness and Self-Confidence; Intuition and Commun= ication -- each helping you to understand yourself better. With an intentio=
    n or request for clarity or insight in mind, you can either draw just one c= ard or create a card spread by choosing several cards.

    The accompanying booklet provides, for each essential oil, the botanical na= me, fragrance profile, chemical components, therapeutic properties, and saf= ety precautions as well as how the gemstone relates to the use of the essen= tial oil.

    As Margaret Ann Lembo explains, the energetic value, or vibration, of an es= sential oil is stabilized by the devic forces associated with mother plant,=
    flower, root, or bark. The energetic vibration of a gemstone holds records=
    and goals to help you focus on the reality you wish to create. You design = your reality and the cards in this deck will help you focus on your intenti= ons and ignite transformation in your life.

    Critique: Beautifully designed, "Essential Oils and Gemstone Guardians Card=
    s" is a unique, 'user friendly', and very specially recommended addition to=
    personal, professional, community, and academic library Aromatherapy, Divi= nation with Crystals, Mental & Spiritual Healing, and Metaphysical collecti= ons and studies lists.
