George Bernard Shaw once said, “Beware of false knowledge; it is more dangerous than ignorance.” So how can we stay clear of false knowledge and ignorance? Wisdom is the key. We must open our minds and our hearts to accept wisdom. It is the quest for knowledge that some of us crave. Even if seeking to expand your mind is not what drives you, pursuing wisdom can broaden your horizons and even open up your heart to more willingly accept love. Crystals can help you find the wisdom you are looking for. They can also open up your mind, body, and spirit to be more accepting of the wisdom you do find.

When we are seeking wisdom in our lives, we may not be sure of the right place to start. In truth, we do not start on the outside, we start from within. We must open our heart, spirit, soul, and mind in order to accept the wisdom we are searching for. We believe crystals can help you in more ways than one. Not only can it light the path for you to seek wisdom, it can also act as a facilitator to make you more open to the knowledge you wish to receive. When on a quest for knowledge we suggest using indigo colored crystals such as Iolite. You can also trying crystals that other authors have recommended such as Emerald, Lapis Lazuli, and Alexandrite.
