Hear ye, hear ye, tattooists and tattooed! Illustrators and enthusiasts! Discover the importance of medieval stones, their magical and sometimes even ... obscure powers!
Medieval symbolism is to be found wherever folk beliefs take root. Whether of Christian or pagan origin, ancient or occult, stones have a wide variety of meanings and uses. These range from simple protection to enhanced abilities (physical or spiritual), to uses specific to black magic. Witches, astrologers and other occult scientists in medieval times exploited their properties for a variety of purposes. Crapaudine was used to protect against lightning, diamond made love invincible and corvia was used to excel in the art of burglary. As for ruby, onyx, carbuncle, emerald, asteria... so many meanings await you in the various chapters of this book.
