Overheard in an esoteric incensey fairy airhead goddess gift shop.Â
“What is crystal healing, exactly?”
“It’s a sort of healing… with crystals.”
“Oh, I see.”

I’m slightly disturbed to hear of the lengths you go to in order to facilitate your reader’s amusement…
I assume, due to your professed myopia, you had entered that establishment having mistaken it for a tobacconist’s…
I am pleased to hear of the lengths that Frank Key is prepared to go to for my amusement.
I usually turn to this website ( http://www.bostochten.nl/dusty/lws/index.php?page=crystal.htm ) for wisdom about Crystal Healing. It contains such unassailable factual wisdom as:
“You may not be aware of it, but when they are growing, crystals are in fact living entities, just like all the other bedrock’s of Planet Earth.”
They sell a remarkable range of wooden handled “crystal healing wands” which posses the following unexpected feature:
“By appealing to our Tree Spirit Friends, we have been presented with a number of LiveWood handles, each with its own resident Tree Dryad. Each of these Dryads have volunteered to hold and operate a Healing Crystal, for the benefit of humanity, in exchange for the opportunity to gain in-depth experience of Psychic Healing, as part of their own self-development.”
… and finally a warning for the psychicly enabled:
“Most people won’t be too aware of the healing energy emitted by the wand; but should you notice any colours, lights, sparks or strange vibrations coming from it, as you use it, don’t be alarmed, it just means you’re a bit more psychickally aware than other people. ‘Join the club’ you’re obviously a Natural Healer.”
“Psychickally”…?
Somebodies been at the Hawkwind bottle…
I dispute that the, so called, ‘wand’ looks like a sci-fi ray gun…
My ray gun is covered with exciting tubes, valves, gauges and a couple of flaps non of which are in evidence on this crystal healing wand..
Those wands are terrible. They don’t look like ray guns or wands.
Now, these are wands!

Hold everything!
The Crop-Circle “experts” have just predicted the end of the world. I think we should take such a statement seriously, as I’ve never known these particular experts to be prone to exaggeration or insane flights of fancy before:
