DeSalvo - Power crystals: spiritual and magical practices, crystal skulls, and alien technology

To my supportive family:
My wife, Valerie, and my children, Christopher, Stephen, Paul, and Veronica.

To my true sister and brother, Joanne St. George and Paul Di Salvo.
May God bless them for all they have done for me since childhood.

And most especially to my parents, Nina and John DeSalvo, who started all this by buying me my first quartz crystal when I was just a small boy.

POWER CRYSTALS

An original and creative contribution to the world of crystals. DeSalvo reveals the magic and power behind quartz crystals and crystal skulls. His practical instructions for using crystals to communicate with angels are invaluable. I recommend this book as a down-to-earth guide to using the energy of the crystals to support the connection of the physical and spiritual worlds.

INVOKING THE ARCHANGELS

This incredible book may well be DeSalvos greatest work as he unravels the mystery behind the incredible power of quartz crystals as well as ancient crystal skulls. This book should not be missed!

Acknowledgments

I would like to thank the following people for all their help and support in my writing of this book.

Judy and Marty Stuart, two gifted psychics who have been my very dear friends for many years, for their continual encouragement and generous help with all my books on spiritual matters. Judy read this entire manuscript and made many important suggestions.

Seann Xenja, owner of Dynamic Energy Crystals (www.dynamicenergycrystals.com) in Sausalito, California, who has generously supplied me with many wonderful color photos of rare and diversified crystals in his collection and from his store, and who was willing to take extra photos of special crystals for me.

Becky Andreasson, my very good friend and colleague for many years, who has contributed her personal experiences with alien implants to this book. I dont know what I would do without her constant friendship and support for all my research.

Helene Olsen (www.angelslighthouse.com), a highly gifted psychic medium, good friend, and research colleague, who has contributed much information to the chapter Meditating with Crystals from her personal experience and many years of teaching meditation. She also called my attention to my omission of Lemurian crystals, which I have remedied by including a section on this interesting and fascinating type of quartz crystal.

Bryan Bandli, manager of the SEM/EDS lab at the University of Minnesota, Duluth, for his expert SEM/EDS testing of the Himalayan crystal skull in my possession.

Scott Wolter, my very good friend and research colleague, who is president of American Petrographic Services in St. Paul, Minnesota. Scott is the worlds leading researcher on the Kensington Rune Stone (the Hooked X), and he has been an invaluable expert for the testing of my artifacts and crystal skulls.

Linda Frisch has been such a supportive friend throughout this research and has supplied me with the wonderful photos of her Himalayan crystal skull and her Dropa disc. Lindas gifted insight with crystals and jade has helped me tremendously in my research, and I am grateful to her for the many hours of discussions weve had.

Kirby Seid, who was the caretaker of ShaNaRa, has been a wonderful friend and supporter of my research throughout the years. He has contributed wonderful photos to this book. Kirby is always willing to give me his advice and suggestions whenever I have a question. You can see his creations at www.lightlabyrinthproject.com and www.seidcrystals.com.

Nick Nocerino, who is considered the father of crystal skull research. Nicks work and research in this field will be appreciated for decades to come. Nick was my very good friend and an inspiration for my own crystal skull research. He died in 2004, and I miss him very much.

Khrys Nocerino has been a wonderful friend for many years. If she had not stored my ancient crystal skull in her sewing room for eight years, I probably would not have written this book. I am grateful to her for not discarding it or giving it away but patiently keeping it for me until such time that I would want it back. Thank you, Khrys, for your insight and friendship.

Michele Nocerino contributed wonderful photos of ShaNaRa, the Mitchell-Hedges crystal skull, the amethyst crystal skull, and the Mayan crystal skull, which I am most grateful for. I am very happy that Michele is continuing in her fathers footsteps with ShaNaRa.

Warm thanks to Zane Grant for contributing the excellent photos of crystal skulls in his collection and also his help with my research in tracking down information about the plant resin that covers some of the Himalayan crystal skulls. Zane has also been very dedicated to advancing the knowledge of crystal skulls.

I also want to thank Terry Roses, one of the most interesting and brilliant people I have ever known. Terry contributed the photos of the crystal healing pouches of the Native American shamans, the Herkimer diamonds, and many other wonderful photos in this book.

Elizabeth HeartStar Keller has been a constant friend and supporter throughout my research. I am grateful for her friendship and the photos she has contributed to this book.

I am grateful to Kristin Reed and Nancy Bartell for also contributing photos of HeartStar, one of the small Himalayan ancient crystal skulls owned by Elizabeth HeartStar Keller.

Al Leone, one of my best friends and fellow researchers, who was my actual big brother during my Chi Phi fraternity days. Mama Leone, Als mother, brought me to a real psychic for the first time in my life.

Jeanne Dunn, my very good friend and crystal skull colleague for many years, who discovered that my crystal skull was one of the eight ancient Himalayan crystal skulls. She also contributed photos to this book.

Carla Hansen has been a very good friend and supporter during my research. I thank her for all the information she has given me and her constant words of encouragement.

Becki Shields, for generously giving me one of her own personal and precious Lemurian crystalsfor which I am extremely gratefuland for supplying me with information about Lemurian crystals

Dr. Frank Loo, my very good friend and colleague, who supplied me with the ancient Himalayan skull for my research. Frank is one of the most interesting people I have ever known and has been a constant supporter of my work. Also, I want to thank him for permission to use photographs of the Himalayan skulls.

Valerie DeSalvo, my wife and supporter of my research, who took the wonderful photos of the SEM/EDS lab, which documented all of our testing and research.

Ann Hall (www.AnnHallMedium.yolasite.com), a psychic medium and my good friend, for giving me her impressions of my ancient Himalayan skull.

Gary Moonhawk Butler, who had the insight and motivation to have the coating from one of the Himalayan skulls tested at the University of Utah several years ago. I would like to honor him for performing one of the first scientific and quantitative tests done on these crystal skulls. Gary was loved by many and died at an early age; he gave much comfort with his wisdom and healing skills. Lynn Johnson graciously supplied me with photos of her late husband, Gary, and information about his research, and I am very grateful to her for that.
