Crystal Ball on Stand 40mm
Crystal Balls, often associated with magical divination, have more to them than meets the eye. The popular image of a fortune teller predicting the future by gazing into the ball is just one facet of this symbolic item's significance.
Historical references to it can be found in the book of revelations and in the legend of King Arthur, who sought Merlin the Magician's prophecies through his crystal ball.
In the Middle Ages, Scryers, or fortune tellers, cherished their crystal balls, often bequeathing them to their apprentices. Serving as a medium for divine communication, crystals have traditionally been used in communication devices, much like today's radios, telephones, and computers.
Perhaps the inherent transparency and symmetry of crystal balls have contributed to their importance. The subtle and esoteric influence of the energetic fields of crystals and gemstones on the scryer's visions is also claimed.
Caution!
Due to the optical nature of crystal balls, they pose a slight fire hazard if exposed to direct sunlight.
