Crystals

Crystals can be used as a link between the magician and members of the Spirit realm

The Zohar states that every living thing has a star has a star associated with it, and that the stars are the manifestations into this material realm of the beings of the Spirit realm.

From The Zohar

Come and see: It is written, "That brings out their host by number" (Yeshayah 40:26), meaning that the Holy One, blessed be He, brought forth all the hosts and companies and stars, each one by name and none was missing. Throughout the stars and constellations of all the firmaments, leaders, and supervisors were appointed to minister the world, each one as is worthy for him. There is not even one small blade of grass in the world that does not have a star and constellation in the firmament that rules over it, and over each and every star is an appointee that serves before the Holy One, blessed be He, as is proper for Him.

Paracelsus (medieval occultist, physician and alchemist) states that crystals are drops of water from the stars which have fallen to earth and then frozen.

Mirach believes that while this description of crystal formation does not stand up to modern scientific knowledge, there IS a link between crystals and spiritual beings.

Every crystal contains within it an angelic spark that can be used by the magician
